North cuts prices on lots
Longtime Chicago TV and radio personality Mike North, who talks sports and business from 5 to 7 a.m. weekdays as co-host of WBBM-Ch. 2's "Monsters and Money in the Morning" show, and his wife, Be-Be, have reduced asking prices for their two lakefront lots on secluded Murphy Lake in Park Ridge to $979,900 each from $1.1 million each.
Elite Street on May 9 broke the news of the Norths' decision to list the lots, which sit on the 14.5-acre lake.
They originally had listed the lots for $1.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively, and later cut the asking prices to $1.1 million each.
The Norths bought the land as one parcel in 2005 for $2.1 million.
Even with the reduced asking prices, Mike North noted that he and his wife still are including $60,000 worth of architectural drawings for two houses that they and their relatives had planned to build on the lots.

nort, the real estate king, still doesn't grasp that real estate prices are down 20-40% from their peak. he has to be bleeding cash from this purchase and his vegas real estate. bebe should have taken her half right after he signed the big million dollar deal. oh wait, i forget she is a big time agent and former CFO
maybe patty blagovich and her could start there own company and get investors to give them money to do nothing nort, follow terry savage's advice and open a lemonade stand and actually charge people for the product unlike webio where customers were never invoiced.
