Evanston Ain’t Seeing Any Trouble
Taking a small number of single-family homes around Dempster Avenue, we can see that home prices are stable and appreciating. I’ll be keeping track of a few properties along Dempster and beyond, to see if the asking price is even comparable to the selling price. Check out the previous sell prices of these homes, all of which occurred during or after the current bubble. I’m sure you have a few hunches on what might happen, but only time will tell:
