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.

Attractions

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

Buying Land and New Construction >Building With Help From Brokers
Did you know that, for no additional cost, you can be represented by a real estate broker in conjunction with purchasing a home from a builder? Homebuilders are accustomed to working with real estate brokers and often their commission is already covered in their marketing and promotion costs.
A broker can provide objectivity and guidance in designing your home and help you select amenities that will lead to a more advantageous resale. He or she can help coordinate the sale of your present home and the closing of the new one.
Many brokers offer guaranteed home sale programs so that when your new home is finished, the real estate company will buy your previous home at a pre-agreed price to prevent you from owning two homes at one time; and can usually arrange the occupancy agreeable to all parties. Take advantage of using your real estate broker in conjunction with building your new home at no additional cost.
