Dean Flickinger is a lifelong resident of Chicago's Western suburbs and serves clients throughout the city and greater Chicagoland area. With nearly 30 years of sales experience, he helps buyers, sellers, and investors succeed in a competitive, fast-paced market.
He combines a strong sales background with a genuine appreciation for history, historic homes, and architecture. This perspective allows him to offer clients valuable insight when evaluating buying or selling opportunities. Dean is direct and honest—even when the conversation requires uncomfortable truths—because his focus remains on helping you achieve the best possible outcome.
No two homes (or clients) are the same. That's why Dean takes the time to understand both you and the unique history and details of the property. Whether you are buying, selling, or exploring an investment, his approach is tailored to your specific goals. He knows that finding the right home goes beyond the house itself—it includes the schools, parks, neighborhood, and lifestyle. Dean partners with you to make clear, informed decisions as you navigate one of life's biggest transitions.
Whether you are a family searching for the right home, looking to downsize, or a first-time buyer, he uses his market knowledge to price accurately and help you maximize your results.
He holds bachelor's degrees in IT/Telecommunications and History. His history background helps him recognize long-term neighborhood and market trends that many overlook, while his IT experience supports thorough research, data-driven pricing, and efficient use of modern tools throughout the transaction. Outside of real estate, Dean stays involved in the community by coaching youth sports, volunteering at his children's schools, and supporting local schools and businesses.
"I help home sellers and buyers calmly execute a pre-determined plan to achieve their real estate goals."
