home and sell when it was time to move on. In addition to my practical
experience, I have made it a priority to continue my Realtor® education
and have earned my GRI, CRS and CRB designations in order to better serve
my clients.

Testimonials
"Alex took us under his wing as first-time home
buyers. We learned so many do and don'ts about buying a house from him. We
really felt we could trust Alex," said Christian Pasternak, LaGrange Park
resident.
"Alex helped me purchase two different homes over the
years and sold one of my homes as well. I initially selected Alex because
of his reputation and proven track record. He impressed me with his
knowledge of the market and earned my trust quickly. He is kind, not pushy
and did a great job negotiating," said Jennifer Allen, LaGrange
resident.
"Alex really listened to our needs. So when a home came
on the market that met our criteria, he made sure we were first to know.
We signed a contract on our home before a sign was even placed in the
yard," said Jennifer Moody, LaGrange
resident.
