Don't Forget To Request A Quick Status Report On Any Homes Or Properties That Interest You!

It can take days, weeks, or longer for changes to appear on web sites. Don't waste your time with less than current information. Request our free Status Report and find out if the homes you are interested in are still on the market, under contract, in escrow, or if the price has been reduced.

The Status Report that you'll receive by email will also include other important information that has been left out or that is available to us through our professional resources, such as how long the property has been on the market, when it was last sold, what it sold for, and more.

Remember: As top Evanston, Wilmette and Winnetka area real estate agents, it's our job to know more about a property than any web site. Make sure you have the most current information!

Buying Land and New Construction >The Zoning Variance

When you are selecting land on which to build your new home, be certain to investigate the zoning for that particular area. You might fall in love with rural acreage that just happens to be zoned for agricultural or recreational purposes. Since zoning uses are not interchangeable, you would need to apply for a variance in order to build a single-family residential dwelling on the land. This can be a challenging process!

Getting approval to have the zoning changed on property requires that you first give public notice, and then request approval for a variance from the government agencies that supervise enforcement of the zoning plan. You might encounter resistance from neighbors or various local interest groups who oppose the zoning changes that would allow you to build your dream home. Your local planning department can tell you how a particular property is zoned and explain what you need to do to get a variance. Your real estate agent may be able to refer you to a local land use attorney who can guide you through the process.
