FAQ
1. What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
Whether you’re a first-time buyer, upgrading to a larger home, or relocating to Chicago’s luxury market, my advice is simple: start with a clear plan and the right expert by your side.
For first-time buyers, that means getting pre-approved early, knowing your budget, and understanding the true costs—like property taxes, HOA fees, and maintenance—before you make an offer. I’ll guide you through each step so you avoid costly mistakes and feel confident in your purchase.
For move-up buyers who also need to sell, timing is critical. I create a strategy to sell your current home for top dollar while securing your next one—often using off-market opportunities, home sale contingencies, or bridge financing so you’re never paying two mortgages.
For luxury relocation clients, I deliver insider market knowledge, private showings, and introductions to top-tier attorneys, lenders, and designers. Whether you’re looking for a historic property in Old Town, a luxury condo in the Gold Coast, or new construction in Lincoln Square, Ravenswood, South Loop, West Loop, or Near North, I curate options that fit your lifestyle and goals—so you feel at home before you even unpack.
No matter your situation, my role is to make your purchase seamless, profitable, and stress-free—backed by 20+ years of experience, a 100.7% list-to-sell price ratio, and deep expertise across Chicago’s most sought-after neighborhoods
2. What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
To sell your home fast and for top dollar, focus on strategy, presentation, and targeted marketing. I combine deep Chicago market knowledge with AI-driven buyer targeting, social media campaigns, and private listing networks to attract qualified buyers quickly. With a track record of selling faster and for more than the average Chicago agent, I make the process seamless, profitable, and stress-free
3. What types of clients have you worked with?
I work with a wide range of clients across Chicago’s most sought-after neighborhoods, including Lincoln Square, Ravenswood, Old Town, Gold Coast, South Loop, West Loop, and Near North.
My client base includes:
First-time homebuyers looking for condos, starter homes, or two-flats in vibrant neighborhoods like Bucktown, Roscoe Village, and Edgewater.
Move-up buyers who need to sell their current home while purchasing a larger property—often for growing families or lifestyle upgrades.
Luxury relocation clients seeking high-end condos, single-family homes, or new construction in areas like Lincoln Park, Gold Coast, and Old Town.
Investors purchasing 2–4 unit buildings or condos for rental income and long-term appreciation.
Sellers at every price point, from downtown condos to luxury estates, who want to sell for top dollar in the fastest possible time.
With 20+ years of experience, I’ve helped hundreds of buyers and sellers achieve their real estate goals-often selling homes for more than the average Chicago agent and in a fraction of the market time. Whether you’re buying your first home, upgrading, downsizing, or relocating, I tailor my approach to fit your goals, budget, and timeline
4. Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
One recent transaction that stands out was a single-family home in Lincolnwood. The seller found me online after trying – and failing to sell the property a year earlier with another agent.
I came in with a fresh strategy: professional staging, high-impact photography and videography showcasing the home as well as the area, targeted social media marketing, and AI-driven buyer outreach. We launched with a first open house that drew over 100 groups of buyers in one weekend. The result was 18 offers and a final sale $75,000 over asking price.
The combination of my pricing strategy, marketing reach, and negotiation skills created urgency and competition. Needless to say, my seller was beyond happy :)
5. How did you get started in Real Estate?
I began my real estate career over 20 years ago right here in Chicago, driven by a passion for helping people navigate one of the biggest financial and personal decisions of their lives. My background in sales and negotiation gave me a strong foundation to not only guide clients through buying and selling, but to position their properties for maximum exposure and top-dollar results.
From my very first transaction, I knew I wanted to build a business based on trust, integrity, and deep local knowledge. Over the years, I’ve expanded my expertise to serve buyers and sellers in Lincoln Square, Ravenswood, Old Town, Gold Coast, South Loop, West Loop, Near North, and other top Chicago neighborhoods and northern suburbs.
Today, I combine traditional relationship-building with cutting-edge marketing strategies, social media, and AI-driven tools to give my clients an unmatched competitive edge in the Chicago real estate market.
6. Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?
With 20+ years of experience and $20K invested in elite digital marketing training, I combine advanced negotiation skills, AI-powered buyer targeting, and precision social media strategies to help Chicago clients sell faster, buy smarter, and get the best possible terms

Dee helped us buy our first condo in Lake View, Chicago and we couldn't be more grateful to have worked with her in this process. From the first moment we connected she was attentive, professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Dee was always reachable and organized property showings with detail, and flexible schedules, mostly working on weekends as we were purchasing from out of State with little time available to tour properties. She gave us all the insights we needed and provided valuable advice when we selected our condo. She helped us get a great deal on our home through excellent negotiating skills. She also introduced us to all the right partners for closing the deal which made the process smooth, easy, and quick. Thank you Dee! It was great meeting and working with you :)

Dee is Chicagos best real estate agent. She sold our Lincoln Park condo in under a week in a tough market and for far more than comparable units. When we bought, she negotiated a deal better than we ever could have on our own. Overall, she covered her fees many times over through the savings and profit she secured for us. Working with Dee was true concierge service. She handled every detail so we could focus on our own work without stressing about the transaction minutia. Her professionalism, judgment, and efficiency are unmatched. We couldnt recommend her more.

Weve worked with Dee to help us sell our Northcenter condo recently and had a wonderful experience! Dee is knowledgeable, thoughtful, and very responsive. She helped us through every stage of the process and really helped us feel prepared. Dee was able to secure great photos of our condo and make a very impressive video to help with marketing. We were able to attract multiple great offers and sell our condo over asking price in just a matter of days after hitting the market. Overall, it was a great experience and I would recommend Dee to anyone looking for a smooth buying or selling process!

Dee Savic helped me buy a condo in Edgewater, and she exceeded every expectation. Her communication, responsiveness, and professionalism were outstanding throughout the entire process. What sets Dee apart is her integrity. Even when I was ready to make an offer, she encouraged me to see other places first to make sure I was making the right decision. She's more concerned with finding you the perfect home than rushing a sale. Dee's deep knowledge of Chicago neighborhoods is unmatched. She gave honest advice about properties and identified issues I would have missed. She turned around showings quickly and connected me with her excellent network of inspectors and lenders. Dee explained everything clearly, made me feel confident as a buyer, and followed up after closing to make sure everything was good. If you're looking for a top Realtor in Chicago who's responsive, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and gets results, choose Dee Savic. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Working with Dee was hands-down one of the best decisions we made during our home search. As a Chicago real estate agent, she knows this city inside and out, and she made the entire process of buying our Gold Coast condo feel effortless. From day one, she was on top of everything, clear in her communication, lightning-fast with her responses, and consistently professional without ever feeling impersonal. She has an amazing team, and working with her feels like getting the complete package, she introduced us to a lender who not only offered great terms but also helped us secure Cook County grant assistance, something we hadnt even known was possible. That extra support made all the difference in allowing us to settle into our new place without stretching our budget too thin. What really stood out to us was how she handled negotiations. Dee has this uncanny ability to read the market in real time and position her clients for the best possible outcome. Its like she has a sixth sense for when to push, when to pause, and how to keep everyone on the same page. That gave us so much confidence during what could have been a stressful process. If you want a Realtor whos sharp, dependable, and genuinely invested in your success, Dee is the one you want in your corner.
