Looking for  Your Next Home?

It takes more than a trained real estate agent to understand the needs and concerns of buyer clients. It takes someone who has been there, someone who has the same concerns when they’re home shopping.

We don’t want to minimize the technical aspects of the home buying process though. Every year it becomes more complex. Between government legislation, environmental laws, mortgage documentation requirements and the legal aspects of a home purchase, the home buyer must be on top of all aspects of the process, or be helped by a professional.

We're here to assist buyers in the Chicagoland real estate markets, and we are really good at our job.

There’s Plenty to do:

I help my buyers understand the many fields of information in an listing search. I guide them in making the most of searches with thousands of listings.

Inspections & Repair Negotiations

Price isn’t the only negotiation, as there will be property inspections and you may need to enter into more negotiating around property condition and repairs. I am an expert at this.

The myriad of tasks, documents and delivery deadlines involved in a real estate transaction are all coordinated by me and my closing assistance staff. From title insurance to surveys and mortgage documents, I am here to help.

Thinking About  Selling Your Home?

Sellers in the Chicagoland real estate market have enough to worry about in readying their home for market and planning their move to a new home. I will take over a huge number of tasks and details to make sure that your real estate property is properly evaluated, priced, marketed, negotiated and carried to closing.

There are so many things to do to move to a successful sale, and I am here to advise, assist, and assure success.

There’s Plenty to do:

Landstar Realty Group, Inc

CMA, Comparative Market Analysis

I help my clients to value their property through a thorough CMA, Comparative Market Analysis reports using current listing price data and past sold comparable property sales.

Search Assistance to Understand the Market

It’s important that I help you to search the listings on our site to learn about currently listed similar homes in your area. Only by knowing the competition can you make improvements and set a competitive listing price.

A Marketing Plan that Works

I have perfected a marketing plan for every type of property in the Chicagoland real estate markets. Some things work better in some areas and price ranges than others. I’ll show you a specific plan for your property.

Landstar Realty Group, Inc

Thorough and Objective Home Evaluation

I consider it my obligation to help you to thoroughly and objectively evaluate your home’s condition and features to properly assess how it competes in the current market.

Landstar Realty Group, Inc

Proper List Pricing

A property that isn’t priced well will either leave money on the table for our sellers or cause the property to linger on the market. I do thorough CMA reports to help my sellers value their properties with realistic market expectations.

Landstar Realty Group, Inc

Market Updates

Markets don’t just change monthly, they change daily in many instances. As new listings come on the market and others sell, the supply/demand ratio changes and your price may need to be adjusted. I provide you with regular market updates to keep you in the loop.

Landstar Realty Group, Inc

Price Negotiations

I do the marketing and property valuation process well, and that means you’ll be seeing a buyer with a contract soon. I am with you every step of the way in the contract price negotiations and will work to get you the top price possible with the fewest concessions.

Landstar Realty Group, Inc

Inspections & Repair Negotiations

The negotiations rarely end with the price however. Once the buyer completes their inspection and document examination processes, they often object to things discovered and request corrective action that involves expense to the seller. I'm here to work with you every step of the way and help you to keep the deal alive without “giving up the farm.”
