Deals Jason has closed near Lincolnshire
These closings are near Lincolnshire, not in it: two sales and three leases, each labeled with its own village. None is among the 6 Lincolnshire sales in the market report below, and every one is on Jason’s public Sold & Leased ledger.
310 Melvin Dr, Northbrook
A family inherited this flex campus with more than two dozen tenants, a half-time caretaker and a rent roll nobody fully understood. Jason got every tenant current and mapped, leased the vacancies and ran a competitive, tour-driven marketing process, then steered the institutional buyer through the attorney work, the environmental review and estoppel agreements across the whole tenant base.
1740 Waukegan Rd, Glenview
A main floor with seven offices above, roughly half vacant, bought for a veterinarian who wanted to own the building under the practice. Jason found it, negotiated the purchase, managed the build-out and leased the top floor to one tenant. Read the case study
1740 Waukegan Rd, Glenview
A later office lease at the same address.
25514 IL-83, Unit B, Long Grove
Three brothers retiring from an RV dealership site found that selling it and everything tied to it in one transaction was too big a bite for buyers. Jason held their target rate and leased 5,000 SF to a semi-truck dealer on a three-year term, set up as a path to a later sale. Read the case study
750 Bunker Ct, Vernon Hills
A retail lease, listed with its size, rate and date on the Sold & Leased ledger.

What do commercial buildings sell for in Lincolnshire?
In the two years to June 30, 2026, the Village of Lincolnshire recorded only 6 arm’s-length sales of office, retail, commercial and industrial property, at a median price of $4.04 million — 4 in the latest 12 months and 2 in the year before.
| Property type | Sales | Median price |
|---|---|---|
| Retail & commercial | 5 | — |
| Office | 1 | — |
| Industrial | 0 | — |
| All | 6 | $4.04 million |
A group median appears only where enough sales qualify, so each property type shows a count only. No industrial sale was recorded.
| Period | Sales |
|---|---|
| Latest 12 months | 4 |
| The year before | 2 |
Counts this small are not a trend.
Read the median with care. Six sales in two years is a thin record, just enough for this report to give a median at all, and the median is simply the middle of the six: it describes the sales that closed in these two years, not what any one Lincolnshire building is worth. Five of the six were retail and commercial buildings, so it says even less about an office building. What the village holds is in the county record below.
The report gives no price per square foot. No industrial sale was recorded, and in retail, commercial and office sales the land and the tenant often set the price as much as the building does, so a per-square-foot median would mislead.
How long does it take to sell a commercial building in Lincolnshire?
The state record is too thin to say. Of the 6 sellers, 5 reported a marketing time: too few for a median.

Sales are counted per transaction; one sale may cover several parcels, and a building resold on the same day is counted once, at the final price. Price excludes personal property. Marketing time is the seller’s own estimate (5 of the 6 sales report it). A group median appears only where enough sales qualify.

Why Lincolnshire sellers hire Jason
Beyond pricing, marketing and negotiating, a seller gets the bench Jason has built over years of closings. Across the Chicago area, Jason has closed deals from 1,500 to 98,905 square feet and has sold contractor units, mixed-use, multifamily, medical and office buildings, manufacturing warehouses and national retail stores.
What a Lincolnshire sale has to answer
A thin record
Lincolnshire recorded 6 arm’s-length commercial sales in the two years to June 30, 2026: 5 retail and commercial, 1 office and none industrial. An office building has almost no sales of its own kind in the village to price against, so its comparable sales have to come from a wider area, and its own rent and condition carry more of the price.
Which buyer
A half-vacant building prices differently from a stabilized one, and the vacancy is an opportunity for a buyer with a plan for it, such as a business that wants to own its building and let the tenant space help carry it. That was the plan at 1740 Waukegan Rd in Glenview, which Jason bought for a veterinarian and then leased up.
A rent roll a buyer can underwrite
Institutional buyers discount for every unknown. Before Sky Harbor Business Park in Northbrook went to market, Jason got every tenant current and mapped and leased the vacancies, so the rent roll answered a buyer’s questions before they were asked.
The shape of the deal
Some properties are too big a bite for a buyer to take in one transaction. At 25514 IL-83 in Long Grove, Jason held three retiring owners’ target rate and leased 5,000 SF of the building to a semi-truck dealer on a three-year term, set up as a path to a later sale: income now, and a tenant already invested in the site when the sale conversation comes.
People and tools Jason can bring to your sale
- A tested starting point — Mainstreet commercial contract forms, reviewed and revised by many attorneys over the years, give your attorney an established starting point and can reduce drafting time.
- Flat-fee counsel — real estate counsel who works on a flat rate, when you want one.
- Fast environmental — environmental consultants who turn time-sensitive reports around quickly.
- Lenders who answer — lenders who pick up Jason’s call directly and get a buyer’s financing moving.
- Village zoning, handled — Jason works zoning and use questions directly with the village.
- Honest trades — roofers, window contractors and other trades with fair pricing, to get a building ready to sell.
- No competing portfolio — Jason doesn’t own or develop commercial property, so no building of his ever competes with yours for a buyer.

Lincolnshire’s zoning code (Title 6 of the Village Code, which the Village publishes itself) sorts commercial property into two business districts (B1 Retail Business and B2 General Business, which allows every B1 use), three office districts (E Small Scale Office, O Office and OC Office Campus), two industrial districts (I Industrial and M1 Restricted Manufacturing) and the R5 Mixed Use General Residence district around the Village Green and Milwaukee Avenue. The Office and Industrial districts replaced the old combined Office/Industrial district in December 2022. Warehouse and storage are permitted in I, fully enclosed, and in M1; the O district lists no warehouse use. The 2026 zoning map shows no land zoned OC.
