  Geneva is a far-western suburb of Chicago located in extreme eastern Kane County, Illinois. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 19,515. It is the county seat of Kane County. Geneva is a popular tourist destination with its scenic location along the Fox River and well-known shops and restaurants. Geneva is located along the Union Pacific/West line of the Metra commuter rail system which provides frequent service to downtown Chicago, just 36 miles away. There is an extensive bike trail system in Geneva including portions of the Fox River Trail and the Illinois Prairie Path. Geneva has an active historical society, the Geneva History Center, located in downtown Geneva. Geneva is part of a tri-city area, along with St. Charles and Batavia. The area is currently experiencing a high level of population growth as Chicagoland spreads further and further west. Once known as one of Chicago's furthest west reaching suburbs, Geneva is now becoming more centrally located as further west suburban locales such as La Fox and Elburn quickly develop. However, as the population of Geneva is changing, the town is fully retaining its' class and uniqueness that set it apart from the rest of Chicagoland. The city is home to the Kane County Cougars baseball club of the Midwest League. Every year in the fourth week of June, Geneva celebrates "Swedish Days", a five day long festival. |  | | | Windmill | |

Accepting An Offer >The First Offer
Often the first offer to come in is the best one. When a house is fresh on the market, there is usually a rush of activity and the buyers who see it during the first thirty days are likely to be the most interested. While your home is new on the market, it will receive the most exposure, so the chances of finding a serious buyer are greater during this period of time. If you are fortunate enough to receive an offer right away, you will probably be better off if you accept it and work on resolving any issues that arise relative to price and terms.
