Despite my father’s best efforts, I turned out to be the least handy person in the world. I’m the vision guy: I can visualize how to rework a space, which materials look best, and how to best let in natural light. But other than paying for it, I can’t make it happen.
Of course, there is a single exception to this. And lucky you, I’m going to share it with you today - only because it will dramatically and disproportionately impact the sale of your home when we sell it.
I can caulk. And you can too. For about $5 for a tube, applying caulk to your tub, shower, and sink will transform your bathroom into the fresh, bright, and clean look which buyers are looking for. And if it’s not the deal-clincher for a sale, applying caulk will - at the very least - prevent buyers from dismissing your home out of disgust. No one wants a bathroom with even traces of the grime which tends to accumulate.
On that note, I hope you enjoyed my handy tip for the day. My father certainly will.

Bronzeville Architecture Tour
|
As you may have heard, Time Out just ranked Chicago as the #2 Best City in the World (just behind Edinburgh, Scotland). And as you may know, one of things that makes Chicago so special is its distinct neighborhoods. The Bronzeville Architectural Tour explores the history and architecture of Bronzeville’s Grand Boulevard neighborhood. Grand Boulevard is home to the former mansions of some of Chicago’s wealthiest citizens at the turn of the century. In the early 20th century, Grand Boulevard became the center of the great migration and the hub of thriving Bronzeville. On this walking tour, we’ll explore the architecture and history of Bronzeville – from gilded age mansions, to innovative apartments, mid-century schools, churches, and beyond.
