[@ChicagoRealEstateAgent]

Feel free to let me know what other questions you have about BUYING or SELLING in Chicago down in the comments!!

Hello, great video! Currently renting in the West Loop and lease expires this July. Need your advice if buying is smart this year versus renting due to interest rate.

@@dbion1shoot me an email at [e-mail] and we can set up a time to chat over the phone to see if buying makes sense for you this year or not

Thanks for the video. This is exaclty what I need! More videos like this please. Maybe talk about home buy process in Chicago for condos and all the types of tax decuctions for first-time home buyers?

[@ChicagoRealEstateAgent]

Thanks for the feedback, I will be sure to work on more of this type of content :)

I'm moving to NYC when I retire, but doggone Chicago is so inexpensive, I'm tempted.

When browsing condos, how can I check the "rules and regulations" document? It doesn't seem to be listed online.

[@ChicagoRealEstateAgent]

Hi, thanks for your question. Unfortunately this document doesn't become available until being under contract when you will have 5 business days to review and approve condo documents which includes the rules and regs. If you have specific questions as it pertains to a specific building feel free to email me at [e-mail] and I'd be happy to track down as much info for you as I can!

Raised my eyebrows what I mistakenly thought you said, "...like what kind of GIRLS you can have on your patio" 😂

[@ChicagoRealEstateAgent]

Ha GRILLS :)

[@apurvapuranik188]

Is it usual for sellers or listing agents not to disclose any information you suggest in your video prior to sending in the contract?

How does one find condos in for example Ukrainian Village, that allow short term rentals? Is that on the MLS?

[@ChicagoRealEstateAgent]

Very difficult to find without doing some manual leg work. There isn't a way to filter for short term rentals so we as agents have to call ahead to the owner or listing agent and see if the building HOA allows. MOST buildings in Chicago are NOT Airb&b friendly however they do exist, but more so in smaller more boutique buildings.
