With over 25 years of experience in real estate, Linda Corcoran brings a wealth of knowledge, dedication, and a passion for exceptional service. As a licensed Managing Broker, she has not only helped countless clients find their perfect homes but has also played a vital role in training new agents and supporting brokerage operations. Her commitment to excellence was evident from the start—earning the Rookie of the Year award in her first year in the business.

Linda holds a GRI (Graduate, REALTOR® Institute) designation and previously maintained her ABR (Accredited Buyer’s Representative) and CRS (Certified Residential Specialist) certifications. Before transitioning into real estate, she managed a health and racquetball club and worked in the hotel industry before being encouraged to pursue a career as a REALTOR®.

In 2018, Linda partnered with Dawn, recognizing their shared belief in always going above and beyond for their clients. Her dedication to helping people extends beyond real estate—she was an active volunteer at Hinsdale Hospital from 2011 to 2022.

A lifelong local, Linda grew up in the area, attending Lyons Township High School before earning her bachelor’s degree from Eastern Illinois University. She now resides in Willow Springs with her beloved miniature Schnauzer, who keeps her on her toes! When she’s not working, she enjoys playing pickleball and staying active in her community.

With a deep knowledge of the market, a strong background in relocation services, and a genuine commitment to her clients, Linda is the go-to professional for all your real estate needs

With a career in real estate spanning over two decades, Dawn Foran brings a unique blend of expertise, organization, and compassion to every transaction. Before becoming a Realtor® in March 2004, Dawn was a registered nurse with a Master of Science degree, working as an ER staff educator at Rush and teaching at Rush University’s nursing program. Her background in healthcare instilled in her the patience, attention to detail, and problem-solving skills that now benefit her real estate clients.

Dawn is an Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR) and a dedicated member of her brokerage’s Relocation Team, where she thrives on managing the intricate details of complex moves. She understands that relocation can be one of the most stressful transitions in a person’s life, and she is committed to making it as seamless as possible. Many of her relocation clients have not only found their perfect home with her guidance but have also become lifelong friends—some even dining at her home during their move.

A longtime resident of the Western Suburbs of Chicago, Dawn purchased her first home in Brookfield at the age of 25. Having lived in the area for over 37 years, she has an in-depth knowledge of the community, the market, and the people. She was deeply involved in School District 102 and Lyons Township High School (204), serving as PTC President, organizing school events, and leading the local swim club. Her involvement earned her a reputation as the “Mayor of La Grange” among friends and family.

Dawn’s commitment to putting her clients first is evident in every transaction. Whether navigating a complex relocation, assisting first-time buyers, or helping families transition to their next home, she brings meticulous attention to detail, unwavering patience, and a true passion for helping people.
