With 28 years of real estate expertise, my career began in Chicago in 1998 and has expanded to encompass Southwest Michigan in 2008 and Northwest Indiana in 2018. I specialize in the Lake Michigan shoreline areas from St Joseph north to Holland - as well as throughout the entire Southwest Michigan region. I remain active in Chicago with the ability to directly market my Michigan properties to potential buyers and brokers throughout the Chicago region as an added benefit to my sellers.
My focus in Michigan is on primary residences, vacation homes, cottages, lakefront, in-town and rural areas across all price points. I possess extensive experience in transacting single-family homes, condominiums, and vacant land. Residing full-time in the lakeshore area between South Haven and Saugatuck, I offer in-depth expertise on local markets and trends. Additionally, I am well-versed in the inland regions of Southwest Michigan and the lakeshore areas of Northwest Indiana, allowing me to provide comprehensive service to my clients. I have recently partnered with two very experienced brokers in our Chicago office, Anne Rodia and Ted Argiris, to assist in providing tailored real estate services with local expertise and boots on the ground in Chicago and the North Shore suburban areas.
My business philosophy is centered on cultivating strong client relationships and delivering exceptional service. I prioritize the best interests of my clients in every transaction, ensuring a client-focused approach that builds trust and achieves outstanding results.
Here is what sets me apart:
✔ I live here in Michigan full-time having a home located between South Haven and Saugatuck. I am active in the local community and stay informed on upcoming listings, often before they hit the open market.
✔ My primary market in Michigan runs from the St. Joseph area north through Holland, including South Haven, Covert, Fennville, Glenn, Saugatuck, Douglas, Coloma, and surrounding communities. I also sell properties from the Indiana border north into Grand Haven, as well as inland throughout Southwest Michigan.
✔ I service my listings personally. I am here locally to ensure listed properties are always ready to show and properly secured after each showing. This is especially important for owners who live out of the area. I have sold and specialize in properties of all types including waterfront, luxury, in-town, cottages, cabins, county retreats and land parcels.
✔ I maintain real estate licenses in Michigan, Illinois, and Indiana to expand my marketing reach. I actively market my Michigan listings to my extensive Chicago and Northwest Indiana network of clients, brokers, and contacts.
✔ I have 28 years of real estate experience, having started my career in Chicago in 1998. I have been licensed in Michigan since 2008 and have a proven sales track record supported by numerous client testimonials.
✔ My company, @properties Christie's International Real Estate, is Chicago-based with offices in Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin, along with affiliates throughout the U.S. and internationally.
✔ I have access to a wide range of powerful marketing tools through my company. I utilize advanced digital and AI technologies where appropriate to enhance marketing exposure, track market demand, and support property research.
