A good article on the state of the Naperville castle market:
A Tale of Two Housing Markets: No Recovery at the High End
Define a "castle" as a Naperville house listed for $1M or more... stats list:
  • 132 of 844 Naperville houses for sale are castles
  • Castles have been on the market an average of > 500 days
  • Only 10 of 174 contracts pending are for castles
  • Only 28 castles have sold YTD
And the cherry on top... 23 mega-castles are listing for > $2M, only 1 of those has sold YTD
Yikes.
