Selling a Home in University Park, Illinois: Why Professional Photography Matters

University Park is a village of about 7,100 residents, mostly in Will County with a small part in Cook County, just south of Park Forest. Good photos help its homes reach buyers looking for value and green space in the south suburbs.

Why University Park? The village was developed as Wood Hill, became Park Forest South when it incorporated in 1967, and later took the name University Park. Governors State University opened here in 1969, and its Nathan Manilow Sculpture Park is a regional landmark.

What buyers notice in University Park listings:

• End of the line. University Park station is the last stop on Metra's Metra Electric District, so commuters can always get a seat downtown.
• Highway access. Interstate 57 and Illinois Route 50 serve the village.
• Green space. Wooded preserves and recreation areas were part of the original village plan, and drone photos can show them.
• Schools. Crete-Monee CUSD 201-U serves University Park, including Coretta Scott King Magnet Elementary.
