New Chicago Condo website is here!
The empty coffee cups and Red Bull cans are probably stacked high at the headquarters of Progma Inc, our Chicago website design and web development partners, as they take one last hour to fully prep the new OwnACondo.com Chicago condo website for its debut. If you're reading this, we're live! We'd like to extend a hearty thanks to Alex Feingold, Sergei Kopylov and all the talented, dedicated (and patient!) professionals at Progma. Â
We've got lots of great new features and functionality, along with a brand new financing page that spotlights our many preferred lenders. We've also got many great new properties in our Featured Developments.
Websites are never truly "finished," so we'll be busy providing extra content and more functionaility literally from the moment the Chicago condo website goes live. Please tour around and be sure to check back often.
New Chicago Condo Website Design Ready to Launch
The ticking of the clock grows ever louder in our ears as the deadline nears for the launch of our new Chicago condo website.
It's been a flurry of meetings, conference calls, emails and strange meals consumed in front of computer monitors leading up to this point. And it's finally getting close.
Launch is scheduled for less than two days, on Saturday, March 31. Our web development partners have undoubtedly had meals in front of their computers, too, as they work their magic and turn our ideas, email attachments and scribbled Post-It notes into something web-worthy. They'll no doubt be putting in double duty these next couple days to meet the deadline, too.
Any why a new website? Well, keeping a prominent presence in the online world requires a fresh look from time to time. But more importantly, we want to bring more functionality, features and content to our viewers. The new website has plenty of that, and we'll be adding a considerable amount more in the days and weeks following the launch.
Let’s Talk Chicago Real Estate!
The mercury officially hit 79 degrees in Chicago today and we couldn't be happier. We haven't seen that temperature at this time of year since 1990, acording to the National Weather Service. Never mind the temps are expected to be almost 40 degrees colder in just a couple days. That's Chicago!
What this great weather really means is that the end of the winter lock-down is finally in sight. This winter season has been a little rough this year, because of the third-coldest February in Chicago's history, plus the constant news and headlines about the housing market. But as we emerge from our buttoned-down winter hideouts, let's look up and see the sky has not fallen! Mortgage interest rates, unemployment and inflation are all still remarkably low.Â
Use this so-called down market to your advantage. "Nothing has changed in the most important of real estate strategies, which is to buy low and sell high," said a representative of OwnACondo.com as quoted recently in the Condo Living section of the Daily Herald newspaper. "The time to buy is now."Â
Experienced buyers know that the best prices and incentives are available when sales are slower. But with everything coming to life with the arrival of the warmer weather, expect the pace to pick up again.
We aren't saying that the best Chicago prices and incentives are going away, but as the old saying goes, nothing lasts forever!

February, 2007 Condo Expo: A Big Hit!
