I speak vintage!
As a real estate broker, I have spent the past 12 years specializing in vintage and historic properties. Anyone that has ever owned one of these grande dames knows that nothing is ever as easy as it seems. No matter how small the job. Simply changing a light-bulb can turn into a task of epic proportion. Am I right? As an active member of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, The Frank Lloyd Wright Preservation Trust and Preservation Chicago, I maintain a high level of knowledge and continued education as it relates to historic properties and architectural preservation.
Vintage homes, their design, restoration and care require a specific language, knowledge and understanding. Marketing to the right buyer and demographic for vintage homes is what I do. Assembling qualified contractors, designers, architects and landscapers that specialize in historic properties to provide specialized skill sets did not happen overnight.
After numerous renovations of century homes and vintage condos, personal experience is a major building block of my business strategy. Vintage homes are perfect in their imperfection. They’ve been lived in, loved and endured through good and bad renovations. They bear the wisdom of their long years. They remind us that troubles come and go, but life goes on.
