If You Own in the Chicago Suburbs, What Would Make You Move Right Now?
I’ve been thinking about this lately as I watch the North Shore market.
For people who own a home and like where they live, what would actually have to happen for you to decide it’s time to sell?
Would it be:
- needing more space
- wanting less maintenance
- a job change
- interest rates dropping
- taxes getting too high
- kids graduating
- finally getting your “dream kitchen”
- a certain price number
- something else entirely
I feel like a lot of people are emotionally attached to their current mortgage rate right now, even if the house itself no longer fits their life perfectly.
Curious what would truly move the needle for you in Northbrook, Glenview, Deerfield, Wilmette, etc. Are you staying put no matter what, or is there a scenario where you’d seriously consider making a move?
