We're interested in a home that backs onto a forest preserve, but across the street from the forest is another row of homes that back directly onto a golf course. The house we're considering is about 320 feet from the edge of the golf course property.

It's been difficult to find homes that are more than a mile from any golf course, so I'm trying to figure out whether 320 feet is considered uncomfortably close from an exposure standpoint.

The home uses lake water, so it doesn't share groundwater with the golf course. From what I've been able to learn, the golf course does not use glyphosate, paraquat, rotenone, chlorpyrifos, or maneb, but it does use 2,4-D.

My main concern is long-term health risks from pesticide drift, particularly the risk of Parkinson's disease and cancer. Is 320 feet away from the golf course still a hard no when most of the homes are within 1 mile of the golf course?

We’re interested in a home, but the entire exterior is stucco (likely traditional stucco). After reading about stucco-related water intrusion and hidden damage issues, we’re starting to have second thoughts.

The house was built in 2013 and is around $3M. At that price point, it already has a small pool of buyers. My concern is whether the stucco exterior would shrink that buyer pool even further.

Do alot of buyers hate stucco homes? Have stucco homes in Illinois been an issue to sell?

In just one week, I've noticed at least 6 luxury homes (>1.7M) listed in East Highlands, including private listings. That seems like an unusually large number coming onto the market at the same time. Is there something happening in East Highlands that's prompting homeowners to sell, or is this just a coincidence? They all seem to be overpriced...
