I started my real estate career in 2004. When I told people what I do for a living, they would slap me on the back and say, “You’re so lucky, that’s a great career!” Five years later when I told people what I did, they would place their hand gently on my shoulder and say concerningly, “Oh… how are you doing?” Those were big changes, but I was able to move and pivot my way through the ups and downs in the market and have had continued success. While other agents were finding new jobs, I was selling the most homes I had in my career. I am both proud and thankful that I have been able to navigate the market and continually take advantage of opportunities that have presented themselves. I have been at the right place at the right time on several different occasions in my career. By showing up and capitalizing on opportunities, my business has been successful through thick and thin. I am a believer of personal growth. I enjoy the process I have gone through in my life, and I enjoy helping others learn and grow. We are not perfect as human beings, and never will be, but I do believe each one of us, as individuals and as a whole community, have a responsibility to improve. I really enjoy self discovery and also love to have deep, meaningful conversations with others. Be it on a golf course, in a coffee shop, walking the neighborhood with a cigar and a drink, or in a friend’s home… I love engaging people and navigating deep waters. Outside of work (is there an outside of work for REALTORS?), I also spend my time with family and close friends. Our life is shifting right now as we are entering the empty nest stage. So all the years of school functions and sports activities are in our rear view mirror for now. What will our next stage of life look like? I’ll let you know.

Partnering with the right real estate agent is crucial to your success. If you want great results, you will need to consider the education, experience, reputation and expertise of an agent and their brokerage.
E D U C AT I O N
An educated agent focuses on the solution, not the problem. The ability to anticipate problems, and resolve them quickly and professionally defines a successful agent.
EXPERIENCE
Exceptional communication and negotiation enables an agent to effectively work with both buyers’ and sellers’ needs, making the difference between a sold contract and one that collapses.
REPUTATION
Respect from an agent’s peers, the real estate community and local homeowners is key to that home being well-received, shown frequently and sold at market value.
EXPERTISE
Staying on the cutting edge of technology and innovative marketing demonstrates dedication and commitment to provide superior service, and is essential to success in today’s world.

“We’ve worked with Dave for over a decade, moving into, back out of, and back into the Chicago West Suburban area. As a Realtor, Dave is extremely knowledgeable, experienced, and holds a high ethical standard that is increasingly rare in real estate, to my experience. His honesty and integrity are truly unmatched, and his calming demeanor helps take some of the stress out of the buying and selling processes. From the beginning, it was apparent that Dave was not motivated by the sale or the commission but by a more meaningful and honorable priority of helping people through life transitions that involve buying and selling homes. Through these experiences, Dave has become more than our Realtor. He’s honestly become a great friend. The region needs more Realtors like Dave, and the world needs more friends like Dave.” — Tyson Aschliman CEO | Renal Management Group, LLC
