Kinzie Group's Christine Lutz sold Gone Girl author Gillian Flynn's Ukrainian Village home for over asking price last fall.
In a seller's market, buyers may have to go the extra mile to seal the deal on a property. That was the case for a home recently sold by Christine Lutz, director of residential brokerage for Taylor Johnson client Kinzie Real Estate Group. A determined buyer made an offer over asking price for the Ukrainian Village home of author Gillian Flynn in exchange for Lutz canceling an upcoming open house. Crain's Chicago Business reporter Dennis Rodkin spoke with Lutz about that buying approach, and other winning bid tactics, in this article.
