About Me

Real estate is the lifeblood of Robert’s family. With a father, sister, partner and cousins rooted in real estate careers including residential home sales, property management, and commercial appraisal and development, Robert grew up taking long family drives to view properties throughout Chicago, and participating in vibrant dinner conversations that inevitably turned to Chicago real estate (and still do). With this upbringing, Robert developed an instinctive knowledge about the local market from a young age.

For the past 20 years, Robert has operated a successful real estate business - most recently with Keller Williams in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and @properties in Chicago.  In recent years, he has been designated by The Chicago Association of REALTORS as a top-selling agent, with a volume of sales placing him within the top five percent of sales agents in Chicago. Previously, Robert worked with The Habitat Company and Coldwell Banker.

Robert has earned a reputation as a social media leader in real estate. In its July 2009 issue, Illinois Realtor Magazine profiled Robert’s strategy of using social media tools to better communicate with clients. Using numerous web sites and blogs dedicated to real estate and Chicago, such as www.yourwindycityguide.com, Robert has established a pervasive Internet presence that not only reflects his dedication to Chicago real estate, but also provides clients with valuable tips, tricks and insights along the way.

Robert is a member of The Realtor Association of Greater Fort Lauderdale and The Chicago Association of REALTORS®, where he currently sits on the Government Affairs, the Property Management and Professional Standards Committees. Robert is a longtime supporter of the Howard Brown Health Center, the Human Rights Campaign and the NGLTF. Robert attended the University of Iowa.

Testimonials

True Customer Experiences:

“In one office visit, Bob was able to listen to our needs and desires, review our priorities and then size up the Chicago metro with confident swipes with his magic marker. Going through the paper and wandering through various open houses was starting to get discouraging on our own. Bob sensed we were getting a little frustrated in our own efforts and offered to setup a house shopping tour de force. This was well before we were thinking of purchasing a place. We ended up buying one of the houses we saw that day! We started looking at places almost 6 months before we were expected to buy. We ended up finding a great house but weren’t sure if it was feasible seeing as we had several months before we were able to move. Bob confidently planned out a proposal that allowed us to close on the house and rent back to the sellers covering our mortgage until we were ready to move in. The plan worked perfectly for all parties involved. Bob uses a lot of ‘!’s, which come off as upbeat and enthusiastic. Bob was enthusiastic about places that met our goals. Life is stressful. Home buying is stressful. Serious relationships are stressful. Bob is calming. We liked your obvious knowledge of the Chicago metro and ability to instill confidence that we would find a home that we liked.”

"It was truly a treat to work with someone as professional as you!  Even through the rough spots we were able to navigate thru due largely to your diligence."
