What's Happening?
Dan Pasqua, a retired outfielder for the Chicago White Sox, has sold his five-bedroom home in Orland Park for $775,000. Pasqua, who played for the White Sox from 1988 to 1994, purchased the house in 2011 for $550,000. The property, located in the Swallow Ridge neighborhood, features five full bathrooms, a Y-shaped staircase, hardwood floors, and a kitchen with modern amenities. Despite previous attempts to sell the house in 2011 and 2020, the Pasquas successfully found a buyer shortly after listing it in June 2025. The house also carries a property tax bill of $14,436 for the 2023 tax year.
Why It's Important?
The sale of Dan Pasqua's home highlights the real estate market dynamics in Orland Park, a suburb of Chicago. The successful sale at the asking price indicates a strong demand for properties in the area, potentially reflecting broader trends in suburban real estate markets. As Pasqua remains involved in youth baseball operations for the White Sox, his continued presence in the community may influence local sports and youth engagement. The transaction also underscores the financial decisions retired athletes make regarding their assets and investments.
