How I Sold This Home for $150K—And What It Means for Cicero.
When I listed this property, I knew it had potential—not just for the seller, but as a reflection of where the Cicero market is heading.
A Legacy That Spans Generations
Built in 1914, this home has been in my client’s family for four generations. The original owner? A World War I veteran. Artifacts like an old printing press reminded me of the rich history within these walls. It was an honor to bring this home to market for the first time in decades.
Cicero is A Market on the Move
But what really struck me during this sale was how much Cicero itself has changed. Here’s what I uncovered:
New Infrastructure: Repaved streets and modernized infrastructure have elevated the area’s appeal.
Neighboring Property Growth: A home across the street recently sold for $330K after renovations.
Market Trends: MLS data reveals a 68% price spike year over year, with the median price for multi-unit properties now at $400K.
Being a local expert isn’t just about knowing the stats—it’s about being on the ground, gathering data, and understanding the story behind every home. From observing street changes to tracking local sales, my approach ensures my clients get the most out of Cicero’s market momentum.
