My wife and I interviewed three local realtors before selecting Steve. All three agents provided a market analysis and were personable, but Steve clearly distinguished himself right from the beginning. His professionalism and high level of service was apparent in that first meeting, and his market knowledge and experience benefited us throughout every step of the selling process.
Selling or buying a house is a highly charged process where emotions sometime overcome reason. Steve did an excellent job of marrying our individual needs and perceptions with his expertise and the market realities. He was always careful to offer his advice while making it clear that the decision was ours to make. This worked significantly to our benefit as, due to his guidance, our final listing price ended up being nearly 8% higher than our original figure.
Steve also gave us the benefit of his network of local tradesmen and professionals that reflected his high level of professionalism and pride in their work. He always followed up with us after showings and was quick to provide us feedback and his interpretation of that feedback.
More than anything else, personal or professional, Steve gave us results. We sold our house in 7 days and for 97% of our asking price in what was supposed to be a slow market. We would highly recommend Steve as a realtor for sellers, and have no doubt that he would be an excellent agent for buyers as well.

Tax Considerations >Tax Reform
Owning a home still offers significant tax benefits. If you are renting, it may be a good time to sit down with a professional real estate agent to see how much you can save each year by owning your own home.
You save in two ways when you purchase a home. Even though most interest deductions have been phased out, home mortgage interest and state and local property taxes can be deducted. The interest on a home equity loan may also be deductible.
Your real estate agent can show you how these savings will apply in your situation. You may be pleasantly surprised when you compare the tax savings you will receive as a result of owning your home, and you will build up equity as your home appreciates in value! Also, first-time buyers will see expanded rules for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA) and 401(k) plans, allowing penalty-free withdrawals to purchase a home in the Taxpayer Relief Act passed in August, 1997. Consult your tax advisor for your particular circumstance.

My clients choose me because I am committed to serving their needs. My actions are timely. My advice is objective. My assistance is un-intimidating. My service is complete. My drive is your success.
It is a well-known fact that I utilize more technology-based marketing tools than any other area agent or firm! Digital photography, website advertising, and 24-hour availability are key elements to getting a home sold in today’s market. When you begin your search to buy a home or prepare to list a home, it makes sense to have somebody help you that knows homes. My wife Julie and I have fully restored two homes. Our first was a Chicago Bungalow on the North Side; in 2000 we complete and sold our English Cottage on the 900 block of Marion in Oak Park. These homes were not quick rehabs to make money. They were our homes filled with hard work (more than 50% of the labor was our own), fun memories, and quality finishing. We have recently embarked on a restoration that will (hopefully) be our last. We purchased a Victorian at 320 N. Euclid and estimate a restoration process of more than seven years. Taking care of my customers’ needs is job #1 and leads to long workweeks. This is all I do, everyday, seven days a week. Let me help you learn what to do and what NOT to do in order to get your home sold. If you are buying a home, your job is just as rigorous. I can help you with everything from home inspectors to mortgage brokers. Selling or buying… I help you with every detail to get you to that closing date.
