Lincoln Park buyers are moving fast in 2026.

When inventory is this low, the best homes don’t stay available for long. In July, only 125 properties were on the market, and many went under contract in just 6 days.

That’s why the strong homes are getting so much attention great location, great condition, outdoor space, parking, and a solid association can create a lot of demand.

The real question isn’t whether every home will get multiple offers. It’s which homes are positioned to attract the most buyers.

I'm honored to be recognized as a Top Producer by Chicago Agent Magazine.

Awards are meaningful, but they're really a reflection of the trust my clients place in me. Every buyer, seller, investor, referral partner, attorney, lender, inspector, and colleague I've had the privilege of working with has played a part in this recognition.

A special thank you to my managing broker, Negeen Masghati, and the entire Baird & Warner Lincoln Park office for fostering a culture of collaboration, professionalism, and putting clients first.

Real estate has never been about transactions for me...it's about building lasting relationships, giving honest advice, and making what can be a stressful process as smooth as possible. I'm grateful to everyone who has trusted me with one of the biggest decisions of their lives.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way. I truly appreciate it, and I'm excited for what's ahead.

It's hard to put into words how grateful I am to be recognized as a 2026 RealTrends Verified Top Real Estate Professional.

When I first got into real estate over 13 years ago, I never imagined where this journey would take me. From my time in the Marine Corps, to corporate sales, to building this business one relationship at a time, I've always believed that if you work hard, do the right thing, and genuinely put people first, good things will follow.

This recognition isn't really about me. It's about the incredible clients who have trusted me to help them buy and sell their homes, the friends and family who continue to send people my way, and everyone who has supported me along the way. I truly wouldn't be here without you.

One of the best parts of this job is that so many clients become friends. That's something I'll never take for granted.

Thank you for believing in me and allowing me to be part of such an important chapter in your lives. It means more than you know.

If you're thinking about buying or selling a home, or if someone you know could use a Realtor they can trust, I'd love the opportunity to help.

Thank you again for all the support. Here's to helping even more great people in 2026!

– John

Listing a Chicago condo and wondering why the online estimates feel all over the place?

The best pricing work usually starts inside your building, not across the whole zip code. Before you list, adjust for HOA dues, reserves, parking, and any special assessment.

I help sellers price condos building by building across Chicago's near north and nearby neighborhoods.

If you want a quick gut check on your unit, send me the building and unit details.

Ever get close to making an offer on a condo and wonder what the building paperwork might be hiding?

Start with the rules, budget, reserves, meeting minutes, and insurance summary. Those five documents can tell you a lot about future costs, restrictions, and building health.

Around Chicago’s near north, the real story is often in the association paperwork, not the finishes.

If you’re eyeing a condo, reach out today so I can guide you through picking the best one.

Trying to sell one Chicago home and buy the next without paying for both at once?

The answer is usually sequence, not luck. Know your payment ceiling, decide which side moves first, and build timing protections into both deals.

On the North Side, taxes, HOA dues, and inventory can change the best plan fast.

If a move-up is on your radar this year, send me your neighborhood and price range. I’m happy to help you map the order.
