Old Town Chicago
Old Town Home Appraisals
Old Town is one of Chicago’s most historic and charming neighborhoods, located just north of the Loop. Known for its tree-lined streets, boutique shopping, and cultural heritage, Old Town attracts families, professionals, and investors who appreciate a neighborhood with character, history, and a strong sense of community. The area is famous for its Victorian-era greystones, historic townhomes, and low-rise condos, many of which have been carefully preserved or renovated. Old Town’s streets are filled with a mix of local shops, cafes, art galleries, and historic landmarks, creating a unique and inviting urban environment.
The real estate market in Old Town is diverse and highly sought after. Homes range from classic greystones and single-family residences to modern condos and luxury apartments, with property values influenced by location, architectural details, and nearby amenities. Properties close to Lincoln Avenue, Wells Street, or the vibrant Old Town Triangle often command premium prices, while quieter side streets offer more private, residential living. At TYKE Appraisals, our certified appraisers provide accurate, defensible, and market-backed valuations, using neighborhood-specific data, recent comparable sales, and detailed property inspections to ensure every appraisal reflects a home’s true value.
Lifestyle is a central aspect of Old Town’s appeal. Residents enjoy walkable streets, boutique shopping, acclaimed restaurants, theaters, and proximity to Lincoln Park and the lakefront, all contributing to the neighborhood’s vibrant character. The area’s historic charm and modern conveniences combine to make it highly desirable, and these factors are carefully considered in each appraisal to provide a full understanding of a property’s market value.
Our Old Town appraisal services include pre-listing appraisals, refinancing assessments, estate and probate valuations, divorce-related reports, and investor-focused property appraisals. Each report is USPAP-compliant, detailed, and designed to meet the needs of homeowners, lenders, attorneys, and investors.
