Thank you for finding me, I'm glad you're here! I am a market expert in the Crystal Lake, Lakewood and greater McHenry County area. I have lived here for 40+ years, and am intimately familiar with our neighborhoods, schools, and area amenities. When choosing an agent, having a true local market expert is crucial.Clients appreciate my work ethic, creativity, honesty, strategic thinking, and consistent communication. I work tirelessly for my clients to make sure they have the best possible experience.My background in executive sales and online marketing gives me a firm footing for selling homes. Additionally, as a Certified Staging Consultant and a Certified Negotiation Expert, I have the necessary tools to make sure your home is seen in the best light, and help negotiate effectively when the right offer comes in. Staging homes is an important part of my skill set that has enabled my sellers to achieve sale prices that they never thought were possible. My personal experience as a real estate investor has been an asset when helping clients assess homes from a long-term investment perspective. A new home should not only meet your lifestyle needs, but also be wealth creating.My broad network of professional partners enables me to make life easier for my clients. From lenders, to home inspectors, contractors, movers, and attorneys, I have trusted, experienced partners to help you along the way.Here are a few data points about my career in residential home sales:1) #1 Sales Producer in the Baird & Warner Far Northwest Office, 20192) Baird & Warner Founders' Club recipient 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 20222) In the past rolling 12 months, my listings have sold in an average of 3 days, at 103% of list price.
