Homes updated

What homeowners in 60302 have updated

  • Houses here with permitted remodel work (kitchen, bath or addition) in the years before they sold went for +18% per sqft more than similar houses with none on record, over the last 3 years.
  • Houses here with permitted system work (heating, water heater, plumbing, electrical or roof) in the years before they sold went for +9% per sqft more than similar houses with none on record, over the last 3 years.

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.

Keep the record

Every repair, upgrade, and service in one place

Right now it is probably in your head, or a shoebox of receipts. When was the brick last tuckpointed? Is the roof still under warranty? Who redid the water heater? ChiHomework keeps every repair and upgrade in one place, so you always know what has been done and what is coming up. And when you sell, that history becomes proof for the next owner, the way a full service record sells a car.

Know what's been done

Every repair, upgrade, and service, with the date and who did it. No more guessing or digging through old email.

Never miss what's next

See when the roof, windows, or water heater is getting close, before it fails.

Proof when you sell

A documented home reassures buyers and can help it sell faster.
