Weekly Real Estate Statistics – May 5th

May 14, 2018 By Janet Fitzpatrick

See the full report here for the ending of May 5th, 2018

“Year-over-year percentage changes for housing metrics like inventory, median sales price and days on market have sometimes looked dramatic over the past few years in most markets across the country not named Houston. But as faster sales and higher prices persist, another trend is beginning to emerge: reliability. Although more market balance is preferred, the current situation has proven to be surprisingly sustainable, at least for the time being.”

Weekly Real Estate Statistics – February 3rd

February 12, 2018 By Janet Fitzpatrick

See the full report here for the ending of February 3rd, 2018

As we get beyond the newness of the year and into the idea that 2018 is here and now, there is plenty of excitement about the promise presented within strong economic conditions and an active real estate market. Buyers are taking fresh listings that show well off the market in short order, and it is evident that the lack of inventory is driving prices up and market time down.

Get Pumped – New Year, Newer Gym!

December 15, 2017 By Janet Fitzpatrick

By: Emma Gonzalez | December 7th

As River North Specialists, we work to update our clients whether they’re landlords, tenants, or property owners about the expanding area. Knowing about changes in the neighborhood can help you make informed decisions on whether to buy or sell. More importantly, it can increase your quality of life to enjoy your neighborhood.

River North is on the forefront of innovation and job creation. Earlier this year, we saw the announcement of the North Branch development which is one of the largest zoning changes in history. In September a healthcare technology company, staked its claim for a new office in River North to accommodate 2,000 employees by 2022 to drive innovation and job creation.  Finally, Curbed Chicago looked at over 14 different construction sites in River North that range from new hotels, to rentals, and condos.

It is no doubt an exciting time for River North as expansion and new additions bulldozes its way into the city. However, if you’re not looking for a new job or place to live, is there anything for you to enjoy? For those already living in the area or wanting more River North in their life, there’s a way to enjoy some of the brand spanking new changes… River North Gym.

The River North Gym or RNG for short, is slated to open at the end of the year with memberships starting as early as January 1st, 2018. With one other location at Merchandise Mart, RNG is taking over the once coveted Dave Barton Gym that closed in late 2016. The Chicago Sun Times spoke to the new owner, Bernie LeCocq about the massive changes to the facility and a new method of approaching exercise.

Just in time for the year new. This 27,000-sq. ft. gym will have everything fitness dreams are made of. From a sauna to steam room to 2 hours validated parking you can focus on yourself and your health with ease.

While we all know the benefits of exercise both physically and mentally, sometimes it can be difficult to get the medicine ball rolling. New year, new me seems like an overused phrase, but take it as an important reminder that it is never too late to join the gym and get in shape. RNG has group fitness classes to help you stay on track and provide you space to feel comfortable exercising. Some of our favorites include Body Pump, Werq, Tabata Blast, and bootcamp classes to show you different moves for healthy results.

They also offer The Sweat Principle as a small group training program for a more inclusive work out experience.  You’re assigned a coach that helps you develop a plan. Not just a regular workout plan, but a plan for calorie intake, your heart rate zones, your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) for a fully customized program for your needs.

Individual and semi-private personal training are available as well. If you’re looking to join the new gym, check out their website for membership information, updates, and more.

Weekly Real Estate Statistics – November 4th

“New tax legislation that could affect the housing market is still currently being discussed and debated by the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, but it appears that important tools used by homeowners, like the mortgage interest deduction, are in line to continue in some capacity. This continuity would be useful for maintaining a positive outlook for residential real estate.”

Living in Color

December 23, 2016 By Janet Fitzpatrick

When it comes to home decor, we all have our preferences- classic, minimal, modern, vintage, you name it there is a home in Chicago that has it. You can tell a lot about a seller and their style from how they paint their home. You can also tell a lot about a buyer in how they respond to the color palette in a property as well.  It can be hard to envision your new home when the colors on the walls do not mesh with your personal tastes. It can also be hard when the colors do not compliment the space or are just plain boring. However, now more than ever it is easier to get creative and make the home that you want. With everything from Pinterest, Instragram, and even Facebook, you have limitless ideas to make your home unique and tailor it to you. The most important factor, you can also expand and boldly go outside of the grays and the beige colored walls.

Here is where Pantone comes in. Pantone is a widely renowned authority of color and provider of color systems. Pantone  focuses on color communication and how our world lives in color. Well… what does that even mean? There site outlines the vibrant history of Pantone’s LLC dating back to the 60s.

“In 1963, Lawrence Herbert, Pantone’s founder, created an innovative system for identifying, matching and communicating colors to solve the problems associated with producing accurate color matches in the graphic arts community… Pantone has since expanded its color matching system concept to other color-critical industries, including digital technology, fashion, home, plastics, architecture and contract interiors, and paint.” It’s hard to pick up a magazine and see the generic names of colors to be no where in site. Over the last few years with Marsala, Tangerine, Radiant Orchid, and Emerald, Pantone has defined fashion and home trends. More importantly, it pushes us outside the box and gives us more of a foundation to talk about color and what it ultimately means.

Each year Pantone will release a color as a symbol  to represent our culture and our time. Basically, Pantone’s color of the year is not just a color but a mindset and how we express ourselves. That’s how colors usually tend to work right? Warm colors in your living room to make you feel at home, or maybe more of a neutral vibe is better fitting. Again, we express ourselves and our homes through color to communicate our style. Last year, the color(s) of  2016 were Rose Quartz and Serenity. The pale pink and the calming blue represented a joining of mindfulness and balance. The merriment of these two colors has layers of meaning from moving with societal movements and gender equality, to simply just being colors of relaxation in turbulent times. They are also just really pretty and airy colors.

2017’s color of the year is a complete 360 from the laid back feel of 2016. With a ramped political climate and a collective notion that 2016 was awful, Pantone responded with a color to help us through. The color of 2017 is Greenery. To represent new beginnings, the yellow-green shade is reminiscent of the first days of Spring. Most importantly, it is a color in nature to inspire us to “revive, restore, and renew.” The Executive Director connected this with our yearning for reassurance in this rough political environment and the reconnection to make to nature and to a larger purpose.

While the color in your bedroom might not have a heavy philosophical meaning, you can still can evoke the emotions you would want to feel. The other great part about Pantone’s color of the year is that they create several palettes with color pairings for everyone. The names of these color pairings range from “Rev it Up” to “Ethereal Material” and my personal favorite “Moody Blooms.” Pantone has set up a way for everyone to incorporate Greenery into their life by their color preferences. So whether you want to take a color risk in your home, a piece of clothing, or just a cute mug from their website, embrace color of the year and embody what colors mean to you.
