You need this house sold by a specific date.

Pick the date first, then work backward

Tell us the date you need to be out and we build the closing around it. Seven days if you are already late, ninety if you are planning ahead. We can also close before you move and give you a short possession period after closing so you are not paying for two places at once, or moving twice.

Downsizing out of a house you have been in for decades

This is its own kind of hard, and it is rarely about money. Forty years of belongings, a basement that has not been sorted, and a house that needs work you are not going to do at this stage. Take what you want. We clear the rest, including the things nobody wants to deal with, and there is a $500 credit toward movers at closing.

If you are moving into a senior community or in with family and the timing depends on their availability, say so early. We can hold a date and we can move it if theirs moves.

The out of state owner

If you have already moved and you are managing a Chicago property from another time zone, you can do this entirely remotely. We walk the property, send the offer, and close by mail or with a remote notary where Illinois allows it.
