Baird & Warner Barrington - Frances Simons VP & Designated Managing Broker

Baird & Warner Barrington - Frances Simons VP & Designated Managing Broker Our story is one of adapting and innovating to become the largest independent and locally-owned real estate company in Chicagoland.

As a family-owned business, we work together to live up to the Baird & Warner reputation of doing the right thing. Our office has been situated in Barrington since 1953, and at our current location since 1994. Our 8,800-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility is home to our group of full-time sales associates, who are highly trained to compete in today’s tech-savvy landscape. We also feature a professional support staff and all calls are answered by a live person during normal business hours. We are pre-marketing experts, and in 2008 our listings sold 16 percent faster than the market average due to our Exclusive Marketing Programs. Among the areas we service are Algonquin, Barrington, Cary, Fox River Grove, Wauconda, Island Lake, Lake Zurich, Palatine, Inverness, Hawthorn Woods, Trout Valley, Long Grove, Kildeer, Fox Lake, McHenry, and Antioch. We handle all aspects of real estate -- houses, condominiums, townhomes, land, new construction, multi-family projects, plus relocation services to out-of-state and international destinations. Our full buyer representation program assists you in finding the right home with the best possible terms, and we strive to get the best price for our sellers’ homes in the shortest period of time with the least amount of inconvenience. Our in-office mortgage representative is also available to provide convenient and confidential financial counseling. In order to serve you better, we have sales associates who speak many different languages, including German and Serb-Croation.
