People choose me because I am committed to serving their needs. My clients continually refer me to their family and friends because I brought them success in the first place!  My actions are timely. My advice is objective. My assistance is un-intimidating. My service is complete. My drive is to do nothing but help you!

Are you looking to purchase in the Oak Park/River Forest area?  I am a 4th generation Oak Park/River Forester.  My wife, Julie, and I raise our own family here.  If you are relocating to this area I get it!!... There is more to your relocation than just finding a place to live.  Let me help you get your entire life started in OPRF. 

I take pride in being on top of this real estate market every day of the week. This is why buyers choose me. You don't need to worry about missing that perfect home because your agent was not familiar with local opportunities. And never be scared of contracts, negotiating, inspections, and critical transaction milestones with me at your side through every step. I have also successfully restored three vintage homes. When it comes to construction, I have lived through it all. Let my vast knowledge of local resources be your central connection for years to come.

Are you selling your Oak Park/River Forest area home?  It is a well-known fact that I utilize more technology-based marketing tools than any other area agent or firm! Professional digital photography, website advertising, paid-for optimal listing placement, search engine optimization, local and national print advertising, in-home marketing, area “new listing” mail announcements, personal & professional networking and 24-hour availability are key elements to getting a home sold in today’s market.  It is so important that your home is fully ready to be showcased the minute it goes live on the market.  Create the frenzy… the hype… the excitement!!... and the buyer will come.

Taking care of my customers’ needs is job #1 and leads to long work weeks. This is all I do, every day, seven days a week. Let me help you learn what to do and what NOT to do in order to get your home sold. If you are buying a home, your job is just as rigorous. I can help you with everything from home inspectors to mortgage brokers. Selling or buying? It is always about the details.  Let me, a local expert, help you get to that successful closing date.
