The 1st quarter report for the Buffalo Grove real estate market is showing some promising number and all we can do at this point is hope that things keep trending in this direction. There is that dreaded F word out there right now that may have an impact on the market, but at this time it’s just too soon to tell. The news has been full of reports that the banks are going to start releasing foreclosures onto the market now that they have reached a settlement with the government. Some are saying they will flood the market and other are saying that they will release them slowly so the market will not take such a hard hit. What we do know for sure is that Illinois is one of the highest in the country for foreclosures and owners that are behind on their payments. This means it is likely that foreclosures with have some sort of impact on the Buffalo Grove real estate market.
