I work all over Lake County, Illinois helping people buy and sell their homes. I also have a special interest in working with people looking for homes with land. Whether it’s for privacy, a farmette, a hobby farm or just open space, I am able to help find these unique kinds of properties.
Just a few years ago, I was the one looking for a Northern Lake County home with land. I used a Realtor, but not one experienced in the kind of property we were looking for.
Let me guide you through all the choices: unincorporated vs incorporated, wooded vs grass fields, well & septic vs public water & sewer, etc. Whether you want to upsize, downsize or just “rightsize”, I will use my knowledge and wisdom to lead you to the right home for you.
