About:

Working primarily in Chicago's Urban and near Suburban areas, I represent a wide range of clients. From first time homebuyers looking to make their first Working primarily in Chicago's Urban and near Suburban areas, I represent a wide range of clients. From first time homebuyers looking to make their first home purchase, to developers and investors, to large institutional clients implementing Neighborhood Recovery programs, my experience as a Realtor has given me a wealth of perspectives to exceed my clients expectations.

Current projects include:

Working with my individual home buyer and home seller clients.
Organizing First Time Home-buyer Programs with various community development organizations.
Managing an FHA 203K Home-Buyer Education Program
Working with Mercy Portfolio Services on the City of Chicago's Neighborhood Stabilization Program
Consulting with Investors and Developers on ways to make profitable purchasing and selling decisions in the current market.

Brief Autobiography:

I became a real estate agent in 2003. I grew up in Chicago's Andersonville Community, a small lakefront neighborhood on Chicago's North Side. Shortly after college, I became a landlord, buying my first property in Chicago McKinley Park Neighborhood on Chicago's Southwest Side. Currently I live in the Village of Maywood, a west suburban community, in an old Prairie School home which we are restoring. I am a General Contractor, as well as an agent. My passions include Chicago's architecture, green building and helping my clients and customers find and build the perfect home. I also serve as a Commissioner for the Village of Maywood Historic Preservation and Landmarks Commission, and was recently appointed as Co-Chair of the Village's Environmental Commission. I take great pride helping my clients buy or sell a home or investment.

Buying? Looking for a home, experience counts. I have worked with buyers in the Chicagoland market for years. My experiences as a Realtor and General Contractor allow me to provide my clients with a unique market understanding. Whether you are searching for your first home or investment, or you're a seasoned developer, I work loyally to get you the right property at the best value. I can help you navigate the Short Sale and Foreclosure markets of today.

Investing? Investors have retreated from the boom markets of 2005 causing blight and destabilization. Today's investors, concerned about recent market turbulence are trying to discover stable and lucrative markets to invest in. Disinvestment and high foreclosure rates have resulted in a Real Estate market that is flush with opportunities for investors. Contact me today to see how you can put your money to work. I have a large network of high quality, trusted Lenders and Real Estate Service Providers. Together we can create a plan that reaches your investment goals and revitalizes the communities of Chicago.

Selling? Selling your home or investment in the current market conditions has become very complex. Many sellers find themselves dealing with situations they never thought possible. Short Sales and Pre-foreclosure Sales have become normal. I have experience with both and understand the discretion that my clients require to openly discuss their need to sell. I am happy to help you understand your local market conditions and help determine if now is the time to sell and what your property can sell for today. How buyers find homes today is also changing. Recent data has revealed that a majority of buyers are tuning to the internet to find their next home or investment. I utilize internet and interactive media with proficiency in addition to more traditional marketing vehicles. Getting a home sold for a good price in today's market take a lot of work and a smart plan. My partners and I work diligently to make sure we are constantly staying on the edge of the media curve. Call me today to discuss how I can make your property stand out. ... show more

Joy,

Great Neighborhood. I have clients who recently purchased a home on Chase and they love it. Close to the lake, great transportation, lots of local restaurants and business districts, etc.

A great site for local info and stats is http://chicago.everyblock.com/
