Historic Homes of Naperville

Old World Charm

There's nothing like them as far as I'm concerned.  I grew up in a historic home but in 1962 Naperville didn't have its HISTORIC DISTRICT.  It seemed most of the kids I grew up with lived in one of these rare treasures.  The home pictured above was an apartment back then and is where our fourth-grade teacher lived (on the second floor).  It was very common to have these homes converted into apartments.

Right now, the lowest priced historic home listed in Naperville on the MLS is going for $200,000 but that is being sold for the land only.

The most expensive is listed at $1,150,000. 

If you love to view old homes from around the country, you should definitely check out HISTORICHOMES.COM and if Naperville is your choice contact me to view these one-of-a-kind treasures!

There are many factors that go into making a decision about whether or not you need to stage your home.  Is it a buyers market or a sellers market?  What is your competition, the comparable properties in your area.  How much staging is necessary, if at all?  These are things that your agent will determine and help you make an informative decision. Not all agents are alike.  Some may believe strongly that it is going to be beneficial to stage your home and will show you the stats to back it up.  The stats are true BUT it can be misleading and the stats used may be irrelevant to your situation. Every home and the sellers situation are unique.  Staging DOES help but that doesn't mean you will have to hire a professional stager and pay thousands of dollars. If we are in a buyers market you will want to lead the market and not be chasing after it, that is how you will lose money.  Mo...
