About

EXPERIENCE MATTERS! My success story started in 1986, (40 amazing years in 2026!) and I still am madly in love with what I do! Year after year, an award-winning agent with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Chicago, I have marked many of those years as #1 Individual Agent in the Glenview office! I am a member of the esteemed BHHS Hall of Fame, President's Circle, & The National Gold Chairman's Circle! One of the reasons I am among the most successful & respected Realtors in the North Shore area is that I take my business & my clients to heart. Communication is high on my list! I will give you 200% in everything I do to make your move or purchase as effortless as possible! My artistic background will serve you beautifully as I use creativity & imagination to achieve your goal. This "artistic approach" is the foundation of each relationship I develop with every client I serve . My knowledge & commitment to my profession sets me apart. Let me turn your transaction into a work of art!

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.

About

I help homeowners sell with confidence by removing the stress of choosing an agent—especially if you don’t already have one you trust. My listings use 30-day agreements, not long-term contracts. If it’s a fit, we continue. If not, you’re free to move on. No upfront fees, no penalties, and no long-term lock-ins. Every home receives full-service marketing and hands-on representation from day one: professional photography, IMMERSIVE 3D & VIRTUAL REALITY TOURS, laser-measured floor plans, weekly performance analytics, and full management from listing through closing. VIRTUAL REALITY is a 24/7 open house, letting buyers explore anytime without constant foot traffic—so you keep privacy while buyers arrive better informed. I personally handle every listing—no assistants, no hand-offs—so communication stays clear and the process stays simple. This approach is designed to reduce anxiety and give homeowners clarity and flexibility, without 6- or 12-month traps.
