★★★★★
"Staci is a seasoned broker who was always looking out for us. She listened carefully and responded thoughtfully to all of our concerns and wishes, talking us through them patiently and with obvious expertise, and then backing whatever decision we made. It's clear she cares about her clients. And she knows the Chicago condo market (and units to avoid) like the true pro that she is. We recommend her highly." - Henry

★★★★★
"We were looking for a house outside of Chicago after my husband moved there for a job and I stayed behind with our kids. This made the house hunting pretty challenging, especially in this market. Staci really understood what we were looking for and was also great with our kids, which made things so much easier. She didn't push or rush us and was completely realistic about what we could expect. I don't think we could've done it without her. " - Dorota

★★★★★
"Staci has demonstrated professionalism and creativity throughout the years of renting out and the final sale of our apartment. She was always readily available to fix any unexpected issues and managed the property without our presence. Staci keeps an open line of communication and she is on top of anything that comes up, reflecting how knowledgable she is of the Chicago real estate market. Staci is trustworthy, creative, a great negotiator and well-connected; she possesses all the qualities one should want when choosing a real estate agent." - Petra

★★★★★
"Staci was very responsive and helpful in getting us into our new home. She aided greatly in our final selection, following about a dozen property tours. She has a deep working knowledge of the market, it's trends, and she really helped us separate our 'must-haves' from our 'wants'. We took her recommendations on a lender, inspector, and legal counsel, and every one of them was excellent. She was instrumental in helping us navigate the bidding process as well. I'd highly recommend her to anyone at all looking to buy or find a home in Chicago. Especially first-time buyers like us. Thanks, Staci!" - Emily

★★★★★
"Staci was awesome and a huge help with my move to Chicago. She knew an incredible amount about each neighborhood and asked questions during each showing that had never crossed my mind. She made sure that each property had everything I was looking for and was overall just a joy to be around. I would highly recommend her to anyone." - Elle

★★★★★
"Staci was always available, responded quickly to our questions, supplied documents in a timely manner with appropriate explanations, making our search process as easy and smooth as possible. Staci listened to our very specific needs and expertly guided us through a difficult move. She's personable and friendly and professional." - Barbara

★★★★★
"Staci is responsive, attentive, and knowledgeable about the Chicago area. She listened to the details that I wanted in a new home and she asked the right questions to fill in the gaps and provided me with a customized list of homes. Staci connected me with other experts who made my transition from offer to closing as smooth as possible. She always remained in communication with me, so I was aware of our progress, deadlines, and anything that I was responsible for doing to secure my new home. Above all else, Staci was honest with me throughout the process and empowered me to make the final decisions on my own." - Eric

About Staci

I grew up in Des Plaines and have spent more than 20 years living in Chicago neighborhoods, including Lincoln Park, Lakeview, and Logan Square. That combination of suburban roots and deep city experience shapes how I work: I understand both worlds and help clients navigate them with real local knowledge, not generalizations.

Before real estate, I spent 20 years as a school social worker and special education administrator. That background didn't leave when I changed careers. It shows up every day in how I listen, how I slow things down when that's what a situation calls for, and how I help people make decisions about something as significant as their home.

I specialize in senior transitions and downsizing, buyer representation, relocation, move-up buyers, and seller representation. For senior clients and their families, I hold the CSA (Certified Senior Advisor), SRES (Seniors Real Estate Specialist), and ABR (Accredited Buyer's Representative) designations, and I am a member of the Compass Plus division, a select group of agents with specialized training in supporting older adults and their families through real estate decisions.

For relocating clients, I work with people moving into Chicago from other states and with city residents making the move to the suburbs. I know the neighborhoods, the school systems, and the lifestyle differences in a way that helps people land somewhere that actually fits their life.

I have also worked in new construction, owned and managed rental property, rehabbed and sold a condo, and served on my condo board for years. That firsthand experience across many sides of real estate gives my clients a perspective they wouldn't get from someone who has only ever been on one side of a transaction.

I received a B.A. in Psychology and Human Development from the University of Kansas, a Master of Social Work from the University of Illinois at Chicago, and a Master of Arts in Educational Leadership from Chicago State University.

Outside of work, I volunteer with Gilda's Club Chicago and serve on the Chicago Compass Cares Committee and the Agents Against Cancer Committee. I am also a licensed clinical social worker.
