Questions, answered plainly
Communities FAQ
Where do I search homes?
Search homes and solds on Realest.com. Homes in Indiana and Illinois are both there. This site does not run a home search. It holds the town pages and the shop phone, (219) 801-0432.
Which towns does Realest cover?
Northwest Indiana across Lake, Porter, and LaPorte County, plus the Illinois towns we work: Homewood, Orland Park, Flossmoor, and Lansing. That is 29 town pages on the map above. Open one or call (219) 801-0432.
Is Crown Point the only town you work?
No. Crown Point is where the shop sits, at 112 S. Main St., Suite B. The map lists every live town page we publish.
Do you work in Illinois?
Yes. Realest is licensed in Indiana and Illinois. Homewood, Lansing, Flossmoor, and Orland Park have town pages here, and the Illinois guide covers moves across the state line. Illinois homes and solds are on Realest.com too.
I am moving from Chicago or elsewhere in Illinois. Where do I start?
Read the Relocation guide first, then the Illinois guide. The Real Estate USA living guide on moving from Illinois to Indiana goes deeper. Call (219) 801-0432 to plan a tour weekend.
How is this different from Real Estate USA?
Realest is the brokerage. Real Estate USA publishes longer living guides on the same towns. Those are guides, not listings. Representation and the phone stay with Realest at (219) 801-0432.
What if my town is not listed?
Call the shop. We may still work nearby streets. If it is outside where we practice, we will tell you.
How do I talk to a Realtor about a town?
Call (219) 801-0432, email saso@realest.com, or use Contact. Selling first? Open the Sellers guide. Buying? Start on Buy.
