Selling a Home in Des Plaines, IL
Des Plaines is a city of about 60,000 residents in northwest Cook County, located in Maine Township and served by District 62 elementary schools and Maine Township High School District 207. The housing stock reflects decades of suburban development, with 1950s ranch homes concentrated near downtown and along the Touhy Avenue corridor, 1960s split-levels and ranch homes in Orchard Place and neighborhoods near Oakton Street, and 1970s colonials and bi-levels in Cumberland and areas west of River Road. Many of these homes haven't seen major updates since they were built, with original kitchens, bathrooms, and mechanicals.
That's where we come in. Easy Exit Home Buyers is a family-owned business based in Crystal Lake that buys homes across Cook County and all of Northern Illinois. We understand the Des Plaines market — the older ranch homes along Elmhurst Road and near the Des Plaines River, the convenient location with easy access to I-90 and I-294, and the Des Plaines Metra station on the Union Pacific Northwest line that connects to downtown Chicago. We work with families dealing with inherited homes in established areas like Weller Creek and Mystic Waters, rental properties that need too much work, and homeowners facing financial challenges.
Whether your Des Plaines home needs major repairs, hasn't been updated since the Nixon administration, or is tied up in probate at the Cook County courthouse in Rolling Meadows — just about 15 minutes away — we'll buy it as-is and close on your timeline.
