🤷‍♀️ What is a co-op? The key difference between a condo and a co-op is the ownership structure. When you buy a condo, you own the unit and a percentage of the common areas. When you buy a co-op, you actually purchase a share of the property, and your lease enables you to live in a unit. 🧐Interesting fact: a co-op building only gets one tax bill and shareholders pay a proportional share of the total bill based on number of shares they own and it is included in their monthly assessment, which explains why co-op assessments appear higher than condos. #chicagocoops #coopliving #chicago #realestate #realtor #broker #atproperties #atpropertieschristies #buyersagent #listingagent #uptownchicago #rogersparkchicago #andersonvillechicago #lakeview #lincolnparkchicago #goldcoastchicago #lovewhereyoulive (at Andersonville, Chicago, Il) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkOrUKGPmvS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On Argyle…

[diningcondanielle]

Businesses in the Argyle area of Uptown has been hit especially hard, both from the challenges of the pandemic and discrimination against the Asian community. To support local businesses in the area and @celebrate.argyle , @brett81014 and I biked to Uptown yesterday and bought as much as we could from as many small businesses as possible. Our first stop was @tao.chicago for some bubble tea! I got the dragonfruit passion tea with mango bursting boba and Brett got the kiwi tea with kiwi bursting boba. Both were amazing and perfectly refreshing after the bike ride! I love the Argyle area and it was great spending the day supporting local Asian-owned businesses- I highly encourage anyone in Chicago who hasn’t spent time up there to check it out! . . . #bubbletea #bubbletealover #boba #fruittea #stopasianhate #supportlocal #tea #tealover #icedtea #passionfruit #dragonfruit #kiwi #burstingboba #argyle #argylechicago #uptown #uptownchicago #weekend #asiaonargyle #chicago #chicagodrinks #bestofchicago #fruit #summer #spring #springtime (at Argyle Street, Uptown.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNP4DLGBbQg/?igshid=1t7kbc534hdc

Loving Who the World Rejects!

Over 20 years ago I made a big decision...

...to come to Uptown, Chicago; to work with those experiencing homelessness, those in jail, those in recovery, and try to live out the gospel.

I’m still here!

But the reality is...

...when we try and live out the Kingdom of God (Kingdom Love) in our midst, our neighborhood, our surroundings, there will be resistance, opposition, hatred, and even persecution!

Why?...

...because our words, our actions, our love will upset the status quo, the powers-that-be, and the power structure that desires to rule and dominate!

The result...

...a bunch of power hungry, money loving privileged political gangsters, religious thugs, complicit enforcers, and oligarchical bullies will attempt to make your life hell. They will continue to use their tools to keep their empire intact and not allow it to fade to black, by continuing to exploit the weak, powerless, and voiceless.

What do we need to do in response?...

...rage against the machine with righteous anger, confront and resist the empire, include those deemed unworthy and unsightly, and love those around us with the love of God’s Kingdom. 

We have an example of Someone who lived this out: His name is Jesus. He lived in Kingdom Love and died in the hands of the empire because of this, BUT let us never forget, he rose again so we could follow him...

the following 5 links are my ramblings on what I’ve just written above: our need to not just idly sit by and allow the powers-that-be to do what they will...

✨Excited to move to the next stage in this transaction! There’s still plenty of work to be done but if you have an agent who is on the ball, communicates well and works cooperatively with all involved parties- that makes all the difference! Next stop- Inspection, Attorney review and co-op association approval! ✔️ Please reach out if you are thinking of making a move- I am never too busy to talk real estate! 😊 cluri@atproperties.com 312-493-5430 #realestate #chicago #broker #atproperties #atpropertieschristies #chicagorealestate #coopliving #realtor #realestatetips #andersonvillechicago #uptownchicago #lovewhereyoulive (at Andersonville, Chicago, Il) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck4CQnMPAqa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
