About Me

Career
After two years of multi-million dollar production in Lockport I relocated to my market area for three more years of the same. I'm now proud to be with Grundy County's #1 real estate office, Century 21 Coleman-Hornsby. I specialize in representing my clients in the purchases and sales of residences and income property within (but not limited to) Coal City, Diamond, Mazon, Carbon Hill, Wilmington, Braidwood, Morris, Channahon, Minooka, Shorewood and Lockport. I keep up to date on real estate transactions and goings on in these areas.

Personal
My youth was spent in Lockport and filled with extra-curricular activities and organizations centered around school, music and athletics. I graduated from the University of Saint Francis in Joliet with a degree in Elementary Education in 2002. I'm now a Coal City resident of over 5 years! I took to the community immediately and became involved in covering issues at the Coal City Library and Coaler sports for the Coal City Courant When not selling homes I love spending time with my wife and sons, coaching youth soccer, teaching math after school to under-privileged students in Joliet and (as time permits) writing forhttp:// www.atomicsportsmedia.com

When selling my home, what questions do I ask the Reator?

Jim Ludes answered:

All three answers are excellent in their own right and repeating just beats a dead horse. One thing I would stress, being a top-producer in Coal City/ Diamond is that after you've reviewed an agent's qualifications and marketing plan that you REALLY talk about the pricing. Too many agents price at what the seller wants and do not stand up for their assesment of the home....that's they key! There's over a year's worth of inventory in the Coal Cty/Diamond/Carbon Hill area per the absorption rate and pricing becomes paramount...If a REALTOR cannot effectively convey the importance of pricing and stand by his/her opinion in a negotiation of sorts with you- it's unlikely that agent is going to be effective in negotiating on your behalf at a later date (hopefully sooner than TOO MUCH later though). - Wed May 28 2008, 10:22

Some are better than others- you won't get a yacht or a power boat through them...but as long as the water's at a decent level....your rowboats will get through. - Mon Apr 21 2008, 08:31
