Condos, townhouses and single-family homes available in Tinley Park
Many area homes belong to gated communities or subdivisions with Homeowners Association (HOA) fees. "There's a good mix of single-family houses as well as multi-family units, and the schools are highly rated” to help retain the area’s property value, says Cheri Cronin, Broker with Coldwell Banker Realty. Largely developed from the 1970s to the present day, East Tinley Park’s residences are well-maintained with verdant landscaping. Properties here are mostly 1,000 to 2,000-square-foot townhouses and condominiums ranging from $150,000 to $450,000. Single-family houses are concentrated in the northwest sector and are priced between $250,000 and $350,000. These homes are around 1,500 and 2,500 square feet with New Traditional designs, and yard sizes vary from 7,000 square feet to half an acre.
