Bucktown condo buildings also require HOA approval and insurance certificates.

Should I choose IKEA or custom cabinets for my Bucktown kitchen?

IKEA kitchens cost $15,000-$25,000 and work well for Bucktown condos and rentals. Custom cabinets ($30,000-$50,000) are better for historic Bucktown homes with unique dimensions. Semi-custom cabinets ($20,000-$35,000) offer the best balance for most Bucktown homeowners.
