About Logan Square/History of Logan Square:
This area has a very European feel to it. The most dramatic example of this is the wide boulevards that run through the heart of the neighborhood (the largest of which is the main street - Logan Boulevard). In the center of Logan Square, from which the area gets its name, is a marble column that marks the celebration of the statehood of Illinois in 1818. Logan Square is about three miles north and west of downtown Chicago. Because of its closeness to downtown,and the fact that the "el" services it, this area has become very popular. The housing stock is made up mainly of single-family homes, two and three-flat buildings, and low-rise multi-unit apartment buildings - many of which have been and continue to be developed into condos. One aspect that gives Logan Square even more character is the collection of amazing mansions that line Logan Boulevard as it winds it's way through the neighborhood. Over the years, most of them have been maintained and updated,and the pride in ownership is evident as you pass by.

Cosmetic Improvements >Cosmetic Repairs
The better your home in looks while it is on the market, the more likely it is to sell quickly, and for the best price. When you have a listing appointment with a real estate agent, the agent will provide a detailed market analysis along with the advantages of listing with their company. He or she will then go through your home with you and make suggestions about cosmetic repairs that will help to present your home at its best.
The real estate agent's recommendations can make some sellers uncomfortable and a little defensive because they are reminders of all the "little" projects they have postponed. Real estate agent's occasionally encounter a homeowner who "has it all together", but such people are rare! Most sellers need suggestions about repairs that will make their home show well, and providing these ideas is an important part of a real estate agent's job.
