Plenty Of Homes For Sale In Naperville At Great Prices

By Yvonne Courney


We used to smile when the economy was booming and real estate prices soared. Today we are doing the same now that we see historic low mortgage interest rates and prices of properties some 30% or more below those record highs. So if you've ever thought of looking at homes for sale in Naperville, whether for investment or to live, I highly recommend you act now.

Why might you want to call Naperville your home? For a number of reasons. Except for the city of Chicago, the shopping is nearly unparalleled. Naperville has been called the wealthiest city in the midwest. The high schools have long been ranked as some of the best in the nation and the library system can call themselves the best in the U.S. North Central college offers many options so that your kids may not even have to leave home to attend college.

Naperville is sandwiched between a few towns, including Aurora, Lisle, Plainfield, and Warrenville. At about 30 miles west of Chicago, you could make a quick drive to the city for shopping or a quick ballgame or to see hockey. If you work in Chicago we are talking about a 40 minute express train to the city.

Naperville has approximately 145,000 residents. Like most areas of the country, Naperville was hit with the recent downturn in the economy over the past 5 years as well as the real estate market as a whole which tumbled. Because of that, you can find some very affordable homes for sale in Naperville, whether you are looking for an investment property or a place to call home. With over 800 properties on the market at this time, you can find condominiums below $100,000 as well as homes at the $3,000,000 plus level.

If you are interested in making Naperville your home, my recommendation is to find a realtor who lives in the neighborhood. Many realtors could show homes in Naperville but very few could make recommendations on where to live and the available attractions unless they actually live in Naperville. So learn about the riverwalk, the great downtown shops, and hope to see you as a neighbor very soon.
