Why would I love landlords?

Because my first job in real estate was calling landlords and listing their property for a team of leasing agents to rent. And I’ve been serving landlords ever since.

I know so many landlords now, from all over Chicago, all over the country, and indeed all over the world.

Landlords tend to be interesting people. They are entrepreneurial. They provide housing to people in Chicago. They pay property taxes that support the city.

There’s a lot of love about landlords.

I’ve rented more property in Chicago than any individual you’re likely to meet. And it remains a pleasure to serve this community.

I handle every aspect of the leasing process: marketing, showing, tenant screening, lease preparation, required disclosures, and condominium association fees and paperwork. 

And I consider landlords and tenants to be lifetime clients. I lease for them for as long as they want to lease, and I handle sales for them when it comes time to buy or sell.

I addition to everything you’d expect a professional leasing agent to do, I’ve added a few extra things over the years:

• I guarantee every tenant fulfills their initial lease, or the landlord gets their money back. (This is an easy guarantee to make, because given the screening process, this situation never happens.)
  
  
• I have developed a rider over the years that I attach to the leases. It highlights a few things I’ve learned are important to emphasize, and all but eliminates any potential misunderstandings in the tenant-landlord relationship.
  
  
• Free lease renewal. If after a year you need to renew the lease, let me know, and I’ll send out a new lease to be signed online, free of charge.
  
  
• You’ll receive an informative real estate update from me once a month. And you’ll always have direct access to me for any real estate questions: leasing, sales, market conditions, home value, or anything else.
