Always ask for closing costs. I and my preferred lender routinely get a first time buyer in a home for about 1.5% of the purchase price

If you can, fresh paint, carpeting, flooring, and updated kitchens and baths will help your home sell faster. But don't expect dollar for dollar return.

I LOVE working with first time home buyers. I also LOVE working with sellers who have tried to sell their home, but things did not go well. But I will work with all buyers and seller, and I cover the 7 county Chicago metro area

I took a listing that was on the market for over two years and had countless price reductions. The Realtor is the most well known Realtor in this town, but never once did an open house on this property. This home had a finished basement with a 1950's style diner/bar in the basement complete with Jukebox. I did two open houses within the first three weeks on the market, and we put the property under contract in 35 days. The buyer came directly from the open house

I left construction in 2007 to get into real estate. Little did I know that was going to be the beginning of the biggest downturn in real estate since the Great Depression. However, I worked hard, perservered, and 1,100 closed transactions later, here I am.
