About

Real estate is high-stakes. In this complicated market, the difference between a smooth closing and regret is the Realtor you choose to stand by your side. | THE TRACK RECORD: Since 2012, I’ve ranked in the top 1% of Chicagoland brokers. I’ve navigated over 2,700 transactions and $1 billion in career sales. That’s not a boast—it’s a guarantee that I’ve solved the problems you haven't even considered yet. | THE PHILOSOPHY: I lead Team Newman with a simple mission: combine old-school Chicago hustle with the technology necessary to win. No fluff, no settling, just results. | THE PERSON: I’m a father, a dog lover, and a fan of Chicago’s art and culinary scenes. I appreciate a good pair of sneakers, supporting local artists, and eating my way around the city. I live here, I work here, and I protect my clients’ interests like they’re my own. | THE BOTTOM LINE: If you want a passionate, highly respected advocate who tells it like it is and has the track record to back it up, we should talk.

About

Hi, I know that you will be contacted by several other agents while you are going through this process, but please realize that just because someone got to you first, it doesn't mean that they are going to be a good fit for you. I have been helping people like you buy, sell and invest their real estate for the past 27 years. I grew up in the business. My dad owned four Real Estate brokerages when I was younger, so I guess you can say it's in my blood. Every property will have a top of the line virtual tour, floorplan, website, brochure and will be listed just about everywhere. Also I accompany the majority of the showings to try to overcome objections on the spot and enhance features of your property. That's all the room I have. I could go on and on :-) Here is a link to my over 90+ reviews https://reach150.com/m/review/52766/nexthome-elite-arlyn-tratt-skokie-il

About

As a Top Chicago Real Estate Broker since 2008, Danielle Dowell founded The DoWell Group in 2015, with the goal of providing outstanding service to all her clients, whether from the City or the Suburbs. While a team structure is not unusual in the real estate business, our group takes a more unique approach in how we define ourselves as a team. The Dowell Group does not assign the traditional roles of being solely a buyer or seller agent. Instead, we match our agents and clients based on personality, price point, and location. We do this to create the most seamless transaction for our clients, and to ensure that their individual needs are met in the best way possible. Because of our around-the-clock work ethic and quick response time, the members of The DoWell Group have expanded their business by developing excellent and lasting relationships with our clients and involving ourselves in every step of the process.
