Sales averaged $191,920 per unit, 14.9% higher than the national average, with the bulk of investment activity targeting upscale assets. New construction starts slowed, though more than 6,700 units were delivered through November with another 17,467 underway.<\/p>\n<p>Read the full<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yardimatrix.com\/publications\/download\/file\/1177-MatrixMultifamilyChicagoReport-Winter2021?utm_source=Matrix-Blog&amp;utm_medium=Social\"><strong> Matrix Multifamily Chicago Report-Winter 2021<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Core Struggles Hide Fringe Improvement Like most other gateway multifamily markets, Chicago finds itself in a difficult position.
