Why Work With Dee?
I know Chicago real estate market like the back of our hand!
When you choose to work with me as your buyer's agent, you can trust that your best interests will always be my top priority. I am committed to providing personalized service, expert guidance, and unwavering support throughout your home buying journey. By entrusting me with your real estate needs, you gain a dedicated advocate who will go above and beyond to help you achieve your homeownership goals.
It's crucial for buyers to understand the importance of having their own agent to represent them in real estate transactions. While the seller's agent is tasked with advocating for the seller's best interests, having a buyer's agent ensures that you have a dedicated professional working solely on your behalf. Choosing to rely on the seller's agent for guidance would be akin to seeking legal representation from your soon-to-be ex-spouse's lawyer—it simply doesn't align with your best interests.
By partnering with me as your buyer's agent, you can rest assured that you have a knowledgeable and experienced advocate in your corner, guiding you through every step of the buying process and advocating for your needs and preferences. Make the smart choice and choose me to represent you as you embark on your home buying journey.

"Dee has represented me throughout several real estate transactions. Her professionalism has shined through time and time again. She always makes sure to inform me of all of my options, and she always has my best interest in mind. Dee is kind and genuinely cares about people. Her ethics never waver and I can always count on her to tell me the truth. She is reassuring throughout stressful times and is overall a class act. Dee has always gone above and beyond for me as her client, and I have learned so much from working with her. She is truly dedicated to her clients and her passion for real estate is admirable. I am so glad I met Dee.

"Dee was the best thing that happened to us when we have decided to sell our condo"
"Dee was the best thing that happened to us when we have decided to sell our condo. From the very first time she arrived to take a look at our place, we felt we can trust her. - Our unit was sold in 10 days. All of us, we, as sellers, and Dee, as an agent, were working to acomplish that. Dee was playing her role immaculately demonstrating high level of professionalism, due diligence, and light, positive attitude. Thank you, Dee!!!
-Katherine G.
" We received an above asking offer very shortly after listing with Dee!."
"It was so great to work with Dee! Dee was extremely professional, knowledgeable, patient, and responsive. We worked with Dee to sell my parent’s home of approximately 40 years (we received an above asking offer very shortly after listing!), and had so many questions throughout the process. Dee patiently explained everything to us, and helped us navigate the listing, home inspection, appraisal, and finally, the closing process. We highly recommend Dee! Thank you so much Dee, you really made this uncertain time go so smoothly!!
