Mary has a wealth of successful experience finding Chicagoans their perfect home. She received her real estate license in 1988, working on a part time bases before becoming a full-time realtor in 2002. From first time buyers to seniors and all points in between, Mary possesses the knowledge and essential people skills that keep referrals coming her way. Mary loves working with people and finds the most joy in finding clients their next home.
A lifelong Chicagoan, Mary received her BA in Education from the University of Illinois in 1984 before becoming an elementary school teacher. Despite her love for teaching children, Mary decided that she needed a change and moved on to become an office manager at a CPA firm, where she worked until 2002. However, she always knew that there was something else that would satisfy her love of helping people and in 2002 she decided to pursue a full-time career as a realtor. Mary became a realtor on the Northwest side of Chicago.
The results of her career change have been nothing short of amazing. Mary has received recognition for exceptional service, including awards for exceptionally high client satisfaction and excellent sales performance. For the past two years, Mary has been named as one of Chicago's Top Realtors by Chicago Magazine. In addition, she has her SRES (Senior Real Estate) designation in order to familiarize herself with the unique needs of seniors navigating the Chicagoland real estate landscape.
Mary resides in Norwood Park where she loves taking walks throughout the neighborhood on warm evenings admiring the many Victorian style homes on large lots that are a beloved characteristic of the neighborhood. She enjoys taking in the culinary delights that Norwood Park and its next door neighbor, Edison Park, have to offer.
Mary is thrilled to be part of a company that aligns with her values. She loves the philosophy behind the work and looks forward to helping clients with all their real estate needs, whether they’re buying or selling.
Mary was great to work with. We found our place in a timely manner and she flawlessly guided us through the process. I will not hesitate to use her again for my next search.
Mary really knows the market and takes the time to walk through and explain every step of the selling process. I felt comfortable asking any question. She is honest, realistic, professional and works as a true partner - always calm and focused. You can trust her insights and experience. Tom W.

Mary Beirne was extremely helpful in our two real estate transactions - the purchasing of a condo and the sale of our house. She was very professional, accommodating, and provided excellent guidance throughout the way. We highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to purchase or sell real estate, as she is a top notch realtor! Bill and Karen
Mary was an absolute pleasure to work with! Her advice at every stage was fantastic. She nailed our negotiation, hitting our target purchase price perfectly. Her recommendations for attorney, inspector, and broker were all great and had us closed on time, and with none of the stress we anticipated. For first-time buyers, we couldn't have asked for a smoother transition to home ownership!...
Mary helped me buy my first house and it was a wonderful experience. Throughout the whole process Mary was both my adviser and advocate. She saved me time, headaches and found the perfect home for me. Perhaps the best example of her role as an advisor and advocate was how she found my home. I found a property in my ideal neighborhood but it was under contract with another buyer shor...
When we decided we wanted to buy a house, our good friend referred us to Mary. We are so glad she did! Mary listened to what we wanted and understood our situation. We really wanted to find a waterfront home in Lake County, IL and when we found our dream home she made it happen. She was attentive and always available when we had questions or concerns. After our offer was accepted we had ...
It was a pleasure to fill out the survey with relating the experience we shared while buying and selling. I’ve never felt so comfortable with any other RE AGENT or any sales person for that matter... Please know, your greatest gift is your integrity, skill, intelligence and honesty you draw on to get the job done.
I have asked for Mary Beirne’s/Dream Town services twice, the first time to sell my home and she explained to me the whole process and the first couple to look at my home ended up purchasing it. The second time I asked for Mary’s assistance is in purchasing a new residence and again she thoroughly described to me the steps and the first place she showed to me is the one Iâ...
Just can’t thank you enough for your hard work and patience that helped us find the best house for us.
Working with Mary B. at Dream Town Realty was a terrific experience. Mary was recommended to me through a friend, and I could not have been happier. Mary provided me with practical guidance and effective strategies to price and place my property for quick turnaround. Her style is straight-forward, and her results were swift. I was extremely pleased with Mary’s guidance, her plans ...
We have become very comfortable (in our new home) and are very grateful to have accomplished our task thanks to your great help. I think my job is stressful, but I think yours is very stressful! Day to day changes. We came out ahead and you guided the way. Thank you. See you soon. We will recommend you to our family and friends.
Mary, we simply can’t thank you enough for all the hours and what seemed like endless searching to help us finally find "our home". We appreciate your patience with us!! Thank you.
If you’re looking for a realtor who’s experienced, patient and very knowledgeable, you will want to work with Mary Beirne! I have used her services twice in 10 years to buy and sell my home and highly recommend her! She will follow through on every detail to make sure things go according to plan.
Mary guided me throughout my first purchase. During the few times that I had concerns or questions during the process, Mary made sure that everything was resolved, sometimes quicker than I anticipated. Most importantly, I think Mary’s honesty and feedback about my choices along the way have led me to the best possible purchase option considering what I was looking for.
Mary, I genuinely appreciate your attention to detail. You considered what my needs were while buying my new home. You’re an excellent salesperson and negotiator. I genuinely appreciate your help with selling my condominium in Arlington Heights and with my newly purchased home. I’ll gladly tell others about you and your services. They’re exemplary. You think of whatÃ...
Thank you for your services. You were by far one of the most excellent Realtors I have worked with. Thanks for taking the time to explain things and being so patient. I will definitely refer you
Working with Mary Beirne at Dream Town Realty on the sale of our home was a real pleasure. I truly cannot say enough nice things about her as a realtor. As you know, moving can be a very stressful undertaking. Mary, with her expertise and experience, made this process so easy. We had a home to sell that needed a lot of work before it would be ready for sale. Mary was so knowledgeable abo...
Thank you for all your help with the house. You’ve been a great comfort to us. God bless you.
