Glenview
Glenview is a safe and friendly community,
just twenty miles north of the city of Chicago. It has earned its reputation as
a wonderful place to live, work and raise a family. Quality demographics,
access to transportation and services, and an excellent school system - it is
these traits more than anything else that motivates residents as well as
businesses to locate here. The strong mix of recreation, housing, education,
cultural and business services add to the intangible quality of
life.
Glenview's
Attractions
The Hartung Auto Museum The museum
features more than one hundred antique autos, trucks, tractors and motorcycles,
and a variety of other collectibles.
Historical Society Museum Step
inside this 19th century home and return to Glenview's past. Furnished with
turn of the century furniture, the museum is home to many artifacts reflecting
life in Glenview during this period.
The Mormon Temple This beautiful
temple, constructed in 1987, attracts thousands of visitors each year. The
exterior and interior grounds of the temple are open to the public.
The Grove National Historic
Landmark The 82 acre nature preserve and public museum consists of three
historic homes, which include a red school house, a log cabin and the original
Kennicott Homestead. The natural woodland also contains diverse plants, trees,
insects, mammals, native migrating birds and water fowl. You can hike miles of
beautiful trails that wind through woods and prairie and explore a prehistoric
swamp.
Wagner Farm The only operational
farm left in Cook County, Wagner Farm is an example of Glenview's living
history. Motorists are often surprised to see cows peacefully grazing roadside
- right in the heart of suburbia! Although the farm is a private residence,
visitors can drive the perimeter in hopes of catching a glimpse of the famous
cows.
Northbrook
Twenty five miles north of Chicago's
Loop and four miles west of Lake Michigan, the Village of Northbrook is fringed
on three sides by acres of forest preserve and lagoons. An excellent network of
air, rail and highway facilities provides commuter convenience and strategic
connections for area business and industry.

Selling Your Home >Effective Marketing
If your home has been listed for a number of weeks and you have only seen it featured in one newspaper ad, you may start feeling anxious. Although your house is being shown regularly, you wonder if the agent is doing enough.
Home sellers often equate effective marketing with classified ads in the weekend Sunday real estate section. However, the most skilled real estate agents know the market well enough to be aware of where the prospective buyers for your home are likely to come from. They will look for the best ways to reach those people through direct mail, telephone contact or specialized ads in neighborhood publications. They will also work to get their colleagues excited about your house, especially agents who have many listings or sales in your neighborhood. And remember--it is important for you and your agent to communicate often so you will know exactly what is being done to sell your home.
