About the Libertyville, Illinois Area  One of the oldest communities in Lake County, Libertyville was incorporated in 1882 and once served as the county seat. Much of the land came from the Potwatomi Indian tribe, who were forced to sell due to difficult economic conditions. Although the population has grown to over 21,000, Libertyville is proud to maintain the feel of small town living, and boasts a restored downtown area, which had been destroyed by fire in the late 1800's.
Students attend schools in District 70, District 73, or District 128 high schools. Also convenient to the area is College of Lake County, in Grayslake.
Libertyville has an extensive parks system, ran by the Libertyville Parks and Recreation Department. There are over 600 acres of parks and open space, including Independence Grove, and the Des Plaines River with it's walking trails. Other recreational features include the David Adler Cultural Center, Cuneo Museum, and Cook Mansion. People of all ages can find something to do at the Libertyville Sports Complex. The area is also served by the Cook Memorial Public Library.
Libertyville is about 45 miles north of downtown Chicago, 25 miles north of O'Hare, 50 miles south of Milwaukee's Mitchell Field, is convenvient to I-94, and is served by METRA.

About Appraisals >Working With A Real Estate Agent
It is not unusual for homeowners to yield to the temptation to try to sell their own home. It seems easy enough--just place an ad in the weekend paper and wait for buyers to show up. Although it may seem simple, real estate sales transactions are extremely complex proceedings.
The first pitfall can come with pricing your property realistically. Homeowners often price their property too high initially, then drastically slash the price when weeks go buy without an offer. Even if a prospective buyer agrees to the initial asking price, there could be complications if the buyers begin to feel that they have agreed to pay too much, or if the lender's appraisal values the property at far less than the agreed-upon price. Some clients hire agents to market their home professionally after weeks or months of trying to sell their own home without success, or after their FSBO transaction fell through.
