According to this recent Chicago Crain’s article…

“Local prices fell 1 percent in October compared with September, the first drop after five straight monthly increases, according to seasonally adjusted data from the Standard & Poor’s/Case-Shiller home price indices.”

“Home prices in the Chicago area were down 10.1 percent in October compared with October 2008.”

Come on first time buyers and qualified repeat buyers: take advantage of the tax credit!  Many say, however, the housing market and the economy can’t rebound by themselves — we need companies to start hiring.
