Value lines use Cook County Assessor arm's-length sale prices and living area, comparing homes with and without finaled permits for that kind of work before the sale year, within the same size range. Houses and two- to six-flats are compared separately, and homes resold within two years are left out. Suburban permit records start in 2018. A pattern for this ZIP, not a valuation of any one home, and not proof the work caused the difference. Permits do not cover every update.
