Whether you’re looking for homes in Oak Park, River Forest, or other nearby communities, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

Pricing your home correctly is crucial to a successful sale. I use a combination of comparative market analysis (CMA), local market trends, and an in-depth understanding of the Oak Park and Chicago housing markets to set a competitive and fair price for your home. I also factor in your home’s unique features, its as-is value versus its fixed-up value, and current buyer demand.

Before your home hits the market, I work closely with you to ensure it’s in top shape. This includes advising on any necessary repairs or updates, staging for maximum appeal, and professional photography to showcase your home in the best light. I also create a strategic marketing plan to generate buzz and interest from qualified buyers, ensuring we’re fully prepared for a successful sale from Day 1.

I utilize a multi-channel marketing approach that includes online listings, social media promotion, email campaigns, and targeted ads. My marketing strategies are designed to reach both local and out-of-town buyers, highlighting the best aspects of your home and the surrounding community.

I offer personalized guidance through every step of the process, from securing financing to finding the right neighborhood and making a competitive offer. My goal is to make your first home-buying experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.

What sets me apart is my deep knowledge of the Chicagoland area, especially Oak Park and the western suburbs, and my commitment to my clients. I’m not just selling houses; I’m helping people find their place in a community. I’m also tech-savvy, using the latest tools to give my clients an edge in the market, and I’m a strong advocate for LGBTQ+ inclusivity in real estate.

Absolutely! I specialize in helping clients who are looking to downsize, whether that means moving to a smaller home, a condo, or a different type of property that better suits their current needs. I understand the unique challenges downsizers face, such as maintaining key features like garage space or minimizing stairs, while finding a home that’s still in a desirable location.

Yes! I regularly share market updates and insights to keep my clients informed about trends in Oak Park, River Forest, and the western suburbs.

Yes, you can sell your home “as is.” While making updates can increase the sale price, some buyers are willing to purchase homes in their current condition. I’ll help you decide whether selling your home as is or making a few key updates will get you the best return.
