how’s the market?
ONE MAGNIFICENT LIFE | KOENIGRUBLOFF.COM
We hear this question all the time, and we’re sure you do too. We thought you might like to know how we look at our current market conditions. We see moderate growth and low inflation with unemployment at 5.3 percent. Real estate prices are up, selling times are down and low-inventory continues to be an issue in most segments of the Chicagoland market, making it an ideal time for sellers to list their homes.
PrICes The median price of For Sale properties in the nine-county Chicagoland area increased 9.6 percent from $199,900 in June 2014 to $224,700 in June 2015. In Chicago, the median price of For Sale properties rose 9 percent over the same time period from $215,000 to $238,900. For new construction properties, prices increased close to 20 percent from $429,000 to $495,000 from June 2014 to June 2015. In Harbor Country, from June 2013 through June 2015, the median price of For Sale properties increased 14 percent.
LUXUrY marketPLaCe
The luxury market, which is classified as homes sold at a price of $1 million or more, continues to be strong. In 2014, 983 luxury listings were sold in the first and second quarters of the year versus 1,162 in 2015. Sales volume also increased from $1.6 billion in 2014 to $1.8 billion in 2015. In Lincoln Park, Lake View and Near North neighborhoods, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices KoenigRubloff Realty Group led the market with more than 21% marketshare from January 1, 2015 through June 30, 2015.

CUBS GAMEThe following day on September 2nd, 13 Sunshine Kids from the Chicago metro area and Northern Illinois, along with their parents,
went to Wrigley Field to see the Cubs vs. the Reds. The morning started out with the Sunshine Kids and volunteers walking the field and
getting to take photos by home plate before the game. Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Jason Motte came out to speak with the kids and sign
autographs for each and every one of them. The kids then headed to a suite to watch the game.
“I cannot tell you how amazing it was to watch so many Kids experience so many firsts at the Cubs
game - first time at a baseball game and first time at Wrigley Field. It truly was a once in a lifetime opportunity. We saw new friendships form, new
freedoms emerge and most of all, a feeling that they are not alone in their fight against cancer.”

A LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMANWe had an incredible week with The Sunshine Kids, and I just
want to say that I feel so unbelievably grateful that we partner
with such an amazing organization. I had the opportunity to visit
the national headquarters of The Sunshine Kids when I was on
a trip in Houston, Texas this past year. I had the opportunity to
meet members of their team, and we started discussing ways
in which we may be able to bring the impactful work that they
do to Chicago.
The Sunshine Kids decided to kick off Childhood Cancer Awareness
Month in our wonderful city by holding back-to-back events with
us, which was also their first series of events here in Chicago. Our
first event at Lurie Children’s Hospital was a testament to how
much seemingly small acts of kindness can brighten someone’s
day. The children were thrilled to be able to close their eyes, make
a wish and store it in their little bear’s hearts.
The next day we took 13 of the Sunshine Kids to Wrigley Field
to watch the Cubs vs. the Reds. Many of the Kid’s parents also
joined us at the game. There was an overall feeling of joy and
thankfulness both days.
We don’t often get to see in person the results of our donations.
I was fortunate enough to witness firsthand the immense effect
it had on all of these children in just two days. I saw ear-to-ear
smiles, not only from the children that are battling cancer, but also
on the faces of their parents.
I just want to thank you for allowing us to be able shine a light
during the day for these beautiful kids, which is made possible
because of our great agents and employees who willingly take
a portion of their commission or paycheck and make ongoing or
one time contributions to the Foundation. For me personally, this
experience has humbled me, filled my heart with gratitude and
inspired me to do more.
In kindness,
JOE STACY
KoenigRubloff Cares Foundation Chairman
It is because of the support and donations of our Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices KoenigRubloff agents that we are able to hold these fan-tastic events and reach out to those in our communities, so thank you. THANK YOU
