Amanda Palo

Amanda is a Chicago native with lifelong roots in real estate. Growing up with a broker father, she developed an insider's perspective on the industry from an early age. Since young adulthood, Amanda has overseen renovations across her extended family's diverse property portfolio—from condos to single-family homes and multi-family buildings. This hands-on experience, combined with her analytical expertise and natural people skills, makes her an invaluable partner throughout the home buying and selling process.

Amanda has built her practice on authentic client relationships and educational content. She's passionate about guiding first-time homebuyers through complex decisions with clarity and care, while also partnering with experienced buyers and sellers who value her market expertise. A dedicated runner who has completed two marathons—she even trained for the Chicago Marathon while earning her license—Amanda brings the same discipline and endurance to her real estate career. When she's not working with clients, you'll find her coaching cross country at her children's school or volunteering in her community.

Amanda's deep knowledge of Chicago spans decades and countless neighborhoods across the city, with particular expertise on the Northside. While her family has deep roots in Lincoln Park—where three generations attended grade school—she likes to joke that she lived in Logan Square before it was Logan Square. Today, she calls Portage Park home, adding yet another layer to her understanding of Chicago's diverse communities. From micro-market trends to the hidden gems that make each neighborhood special, Amanda brings local insight that transforms the home search experience. She speaks fluent Spanish and is here to support her clients' diverse needs.
