More About Lois
A professionally licensed Real Estate Broker since 2003, Lois has achieved distinction for successfully marketing and selling condos and single-family homes in neighborhoods across the city of Chicago and the near West & near North suburbs. A mother of 3 from rural North Dakota, Lois has fondly called Chicago home for 50+ years.
Lois's 25+ years of experience in women's fashion and high-value sales at Tiffany & Co. positioned her perfectly for her entrance into Chicago's high-end real estate market. She has since made real estate her full-time career -- leveraging her eye for style, art & beauty along with her passion for connecting with and understanding her clients -- to ultimately help them find whatever it is they're searching for. This experience, combined with her integrity and hardworking nature, has led to an extensive and loyal client base & professional network.
Lois’s wide variety of interests, travels and experiences also allows her to connect with people of varied backgrounds and needs, including new investors looking for their first home, professionals & their families relocating to Chicago from afar, investors looking for high-yield rental properties, & owners eager to sell.
So whatever your needs, Lois will be a great partner from the start (if you still have any doubts, just take a quick look through her clients' testimonials)!

I worked with Lois nine years ago when trying to sell my home back then and even though it was unsuccessful I remembered her and the experience. In addition, her periodic real estate emails kept her in my mind all those nine years. I knew going in that she would be a pleasure to work with.

I want to thank you again for being such a wonderful host to us. I have passed on to my colleagues how impressed we were with our knowledge, approach and incredibly friendly way of doing things.
Lois is punctual, trustworthy, organized and know the areas/neighborhoods of Chicago very well. She listened carefully to what I was looking for . . . knew what questions to ask, and when it came time to negotiate her experience was evident. It was a smooth process from start to finish and it was because of Lois I had such a great experience buying my first condo.
