Chicago's tight housing supply needs one fix: more sellers

Original: Chicago’s tight housing supply has one obvious fix: more sellers

Chicago's housing market remains squeezed by a shortage of homes for sale, and commentators point to a simple remedy: more homeowners putting their properties on the market. High mortgage rates have locked many owners into low-rate loans, discouraging them from selling and keeping inventory near historic lows, which continues to push prices up across the metro area.

Why now: Housing affordability and inventory are pressing concerns for Chicago buyers and policymakers right now.
