Arlington Heights MLS
The Multiple Listing Service allows you to easily access information about all of the available properties in the Arlington Heights area. You'll need all the help you can get when looking for real estate in Arlington Heights, because everybody else wants to live there, too! The village's recent boom has severely restricted the availability of open land, so it is common to tear down or renovate older houses.
That doesn't, however, mean that Arlington Heights is losing any of its charm. Quite the contrary. Local officials have made it a priority to keep a close eye on development and design in their community, to assure that the quality of life there maintains its current high level. There are regulations to ensure against overcrowding of lots, for example, and the development of high-rises and condominiums is largely restricted to the central business district.
In other areas of the village, traditional single-family houses are the norm, with gracious tree-lined neighborhoods. Craftsman and Victorian design elements are popular, even in newly constructed homes. The average cost of new single-family homes in 2004 was approximately 376,000.
It's easy to see why property in Arlington Heights is in such demand. With its combination of a comfortable, affluent, and safe environment, a friendly atmosphere, and the close availability of the arts and excitement of Chicago, Arlington Heights has it all.
