About David Schwabe

David has a passion for helping people and has found that assisting people in selling their home in a challenging market is what makes his career rewarding. With a degree in Mechanical Engineering and a background in Project Management, he brings a completely different dimension to selling homes. He has stated that "marketing a home should be a systematic approach that never overlooks any one part of the process". David believes that each and every home that is on the market for sale should be staged to its "highest potential". In a market that is saturated with homes, the listing agent must prepare the home to bring the emotion out of the buyer to get the home sold. Born and raised in Wisconsin, David obtained his degree in Mechanical Engineering from Marquette University in Milwaukee. He quickly relocated to Arlington Heights in 1991 and worked for an engineering firm in downtown Chicago where he focused in Project Management and equipment acquisition. He later moved into the manufacturing sector and received his first sale position. It was here that David realized the passion for helping others. David eventually became a REALTOR in 2002 and it became apparent that it was a perfect fit. After a few short years his business grew and he realized that in order to properly service his clients, he would have to start a team. It was then in 2006 that The Schwabe Group was formed. David has a beautiful wife and 4 children. His family continues to live and grow in Arlington Heights. He has had the opportunity to participate in coaching soccer at the park district level in Arlington Heights and Buffalo Grove for many years. David has also had the privilege of working on a local private School Board and donates his time working on marketing functions for the school. He believes that giving back to the community is a necessity. It makes our towns stronger and it re-energizes the spirit.

Don't hesitate to hire Faith! Within hours of contacting Faith we had a comprehensive property analysis. Her communication and knowledge of the area was super helpful. She had the property listed quickly and did all the work. We sold in less than 2 weeks. The process was painless from start to finish. If you want a pro, go with Faith.

Faith is highly professional and responded very promptly to all of our questions. We believe she helped us choose an excellent price point so that we sold the house very quickly and got what the house was worth. Great job, Faith!

Rana is a top notch realtor. She is intuitive, attentive to details, responsive, and trustworthy. We worked with her as the sellers. Rana provided us with an excellent contractor to prepare our property so that the transaction including prep, listing, offers, inspections and closing went smoothly without a hitch. We travel a lot, so it was imperative to have a dependable listing agent. We will definitely work with her again.

Through the purchasing and selling of my parents property,I have met many realtors in my life. Regardless of state borders, what I am usually faced with in a Realtor is unprofessionalism, impatience, and money-driven without your rights as a seller/buyer in mind. Meeting Rana was like finally able to breathe after being suffocated for so long. Rana was immensely patient with our seemingly endless questions.she asked questions on our behalf that we didnt think of to make sure the home we were touring didnt have hidden issues or was updated to code by licensed individuals/companies. Once we got into escrow, Rana was diligent in making sure all inspections were in place, communicated with the sellers agent, and kept us informed on a daily basis. I am not sure how you can have a better agent than Rana and her entire team. If we ever need to sell or buy another property, we know exactly who to call when the time comes =)
