West Pullman attracts investors and home renovators
Situated on the outskirts of Chicago's South Side, West Pullman is slowly reaching its full potential. The area is popular with investors and house flippers taking advantage of low housing costs and the number of homes in need of repairs. There are plenty of amenities for residents, including a state-of-the-art rec center. You can also walk to the grocery store, Metra stations and plenty of parks.
West Pullman features rows of beautiful houses in a quiet neighborhood.

Lower home prices on the South Side compared to North Side
Many homes here are older and not yet renovated, and investors have noticed the potential of flipping properties on this side of town. “Everyone wants to be in Logan Square and Lincoln Park, but even the run-down homes over there are so much higher,” says broker Duval Williams with @properties Commercial. “The houses that need work are still fairly cheap. You can still find homes that need a lot of work under $50,000.”
Renovated homes typically range from the low $100,000s and the upper $200,000s, and the median here is about $190,000, about the same as nearby communities like Pullman, Roseland and Calumet Park. However, it is about $100,000 cheaper than neighboring Morgan Park, located on the other side of the interstate, where homes are a bit bigger.
West Pullman is mostly homeowners and older houses
Most properties in West Pullman are single-family homes. Historic Nationals, bungalows and the occasional ranch-style home line the streets. Every now and then, a block will have a brownstone three-flat available for the few renters here. Street parking isn’t really an issue, since most homes have detached garages in alleys behind the property.
Charming houses with well-manicured lawns are common in the West Pullman area.
Chicago bungalows with decorative brickwork & stained glass windows make each home unique.

Indoor basketball and volleyball courts that host local leagues
A performing arts center
Baseball and football fields
You can also head to West Pullman Park, which also has an indoor pool. Outside, there are tennis and basketball courts, baseball fields and a playground with a splash pad. The Major Taylor Trail is a paved bike trail that goes through South Side Chicago, and a good portion of it is in West Pullman.

Chicago Public Schools serves the West Pullman neighborhood

You can walk to the grocery store from West Pullman
“Something good about West Pullman would be Marshfield Plaza,” says Realtor Carla Norton Brown with A Dwelling 4 U Realty. “There’s a good grocery store over there. They keep building it up.” South Side has a reputation for being a food desert, so West Pullman residents benefit from being so close to the shopping center and its Jewel-Osco. Fast-food chains line Halsted Street, and Maxwell Street Express has Italian beef sandwiches and Polish sausages.
The Original Maxwell Street Express restaurant is located in West Pullman.
West Pullman shoppers find everyday grocery items and produce at Jewel-Osco in Marshfield Plaza.
Marshfield Plaza is conveniently located near the I-57 expressway.
