What a beautiful place you could call “home.”

This 2,100-square-foot contemporary two-story ranch house sits on a secluded drive just outside Mt Zion, Illinois. It features three bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a large master bath.

Six Days from "Listed" to "Pending" :: Springfield, Illinois, Real Estate Photographer

The Chatham home I recently featured on the site was sold in just six days.

The FSBO seller emailed me last week to say that they had six showings the week the listing went live. Six days into their selling process, they accepted an offer. And this, according to one local realtor, in a market where homes over $300k move very slowly.

Beautiful real estate photography attracts buyers—that's exactly what happened for this Chatham seller.
