As 2009 comes to an end I wanted to get this out before things get too hectic. Our real estate market is still slow, but there are positive signs that things will start to improve in 2010. There will still be plenty of short sales but hopefully the number of foreclosures will diminish. (If you are considering going the short sale route – either as a seller or a buyer – please contact me as not everyone can benefit from a short sale.) You can reach me via email at skip@juckins.com of by phone at (630) 420-1300. Enough for real estate for now. I want to let you know about a couple of things going on this month.
First of all, CityGate Grille is hosting “Toys for Tots” again this year on Monday, December 14th at 6:00 PM. Your donation of one new, unwrapped toy or monetary gift will entitle you to: CityGate Grille’s Special Complimentary Buffet, passed hors d’oeuvres, a specialty drink of your choice, and one entry for distinctive raffle prizes. It will be a fun evening, with music and dancing, for a great cause. Please call and make a reservation – (630) 718-1010. CityGate Grille is located at 2020 Citygate Lane in the Calamos Corporate Campus on RT 59 just north of I-88.
Secondly, Morton’s The Steakhouse is offering a special holiday lunch. On December 4,10,11,17,18,21 and 22 for $25. per person you can get a three-course Prime Lunch. It includes a choice of soup or salad, choice of a special entrée, and dessert. Morton’s is at 1751 Freedom Drive in Naperville.
As usual, I will leave you with a quote: “Everyone thinks of changing the world but no one thinks of changing himself” – Leo Tolstoy
‘Til next time………..
