Newsroom and Press Resources
Sell Chicago Properties is an independent, investor-led real estate team and a frequent commentator on the Chicago market. Reporters and producers are welcome here. We give fast, plain-spoken expert perspective on distressed property, housing policy, and how Chicago real estate actually works for everyday owners, and we will tell you plainly when a question is outside our lane.
Working on a story
Reach our press desk for expert comment, background, or data. We answer quickly, and we put accuracy ahead of spin.
What we can speak to
We comment from direct, on-the-ground experience buying and analyzing Chicago property, not from a press release. Topics where we are a useful source:
Distressed and as-is sales
How foreclosure, tax-delinquent, probate, divorce, and code-violation sales actually unfold, and what options owners really have.
Illinois tax-sale and equity protection
The Tyler v. Hennepin fallout and Illinois reform: what changed, who it protects, and what delinquent owners can still do.
ADUs and coach houses
Citywide accessory dwelling rules as a missing-middle tool: who can afford to build, and who actually benefits.
FSBO and the changing agent model
What the Zillow and MLS access fight, and commission changes, mean for an ordinary Chicago seller.
Megaprojects and nearby home values
United Center 1901, The 78, Lincoln Yards and Foundry Park, South Works, Bally's, and LaSalle conversions, read through the lens of small owners.
Neighborhood-level investing
Where value actually sits on the South and West sides, and how owners can capture it without being taken advantage of.
