            <title>An Upside to a Down market</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
With the housing market down and the economy in a slump, many real estate agents have turned to the rental market to maintain their presence in the industry. One agent recently told me that nearly a third of his income now comes from doing rental business. So if you happen to be in the market for a new apartment or rental property, why not turn to a full time professional Realtor for help?

Did you know that Americans own approximately 77.5 million dogs? That&rsquo;s more than double the population of New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago combined! Thirty-nine percent of U.S. households own at least one dog and of those owners, twenty-four percent own two dogs. And if you happen to reside in an urban environment, like Chicago for example, choosing the right home may not only have to fulfill your requirements, but your dogs&rsquo; as well.

The Loop, an area which includes the South Loop, Printers Row, the Loop and Streeterville, shows an increase of nearly 8% compared to this time last year with a price of just over $350,000.

Andersonville is home to a variety of great restaurants from Japanese, Thai, Italian, Me... ]]> </description>
