What can you do with property sales information on Cityscape? A lot. Here are some tips:

  • In Place Snapshot (think ZIP code or a personally-drawn boundary), you can locate sales comps and find the names of the most prolific buyers and sellers. 
  • In Address Snapshot, you can find all of the properties that sold within a couple of blocks. 
  • In Lending & Investment Snapshot, showcase the transactions in automatically generated charts, for any of the thousands of Places we have in Cook County (see screenshot below).
