Mike Zawislak - Serving Chicago Area Home Buyers & Sellers Serving Chicago Area Home Buyers & Sellers. Mike is a full time real estate broker serving clients I began my real estate career in 1986.

I had worked as an accountant for General Foods, now Kraft, from 1977-1986. I began investing in apartment building in 1980 and discovered that a career path in real estate offered a myriad of opportunities. I have Bachelor of Science degree in accounting from the University of Illinois, which has assisted me throughout my real estate endeavors both as a broker and an investor. I moved to Burr Rid

ge in 1992 and have lived in there since. I worked in the LaGrange market from 1994 -1998 and began with Baird & Warner in Downers Grove in 1999. In that year, I added general contractor to my experiences. I built several luxury homes in Downers Grove, Westmont, Naperville and Lombard. This gives me a unique insight to understand and present high end homes as a real estate broker. I have consistently performed in the top 2% of the 2000 Baird & Warner agents over the last 10 years, and in the top 1% in the last 3 years. During the last 2 years I have sold 125 homes for a total of $33 million. Starting in 2010, I have appeared on a monthly radio show at WJOL AM 1340. This gives me a platform to promote my listings and real estate skills to another audience. I take a consultative approach in helping my seller and buyer clients to reach the most effective and efficient options available for meeting their goals and expectations. I focus on designing innovative marketing plans that yield the greatest price the market will offer. I utilize my vast knowledge of the real estate marketplace to help families and individuals buy homes, sell homes, and take care of the details of their relocation. My top priority is my commitment to my clients.

Home sellers! πŸ“’

Are you preparing to host an open house? Here's my tip: Create a welcoming atmosphere! 🏑

Make sure your home is clean and clutter-free, let the natural light fill your home, and add some fresh flowers or greenery!

If you’re still on the fence about selling, I can help you get your home ready for showings.

Are you in the market for a new home and looking for the best interest rate? Here's a myth-busting fact you should know: The lowest interest rate isn't always the best!

While a low-interest rate can seem like an attractive option, it's not always the best choice for everyone. Here are some reasons why: πŸ’‘

βœ… Higher Fees
Some lenders may offer a lower interest rate but make up for it with higher fees or closing costs.

βœ… Shorter Term
A lower interest rate may come with a shorter loan term, which can mean higher monthly payments.

When it comes to choosing a mortgage, the lowest interest rate isn't always the best option. I'd love to help you find the best loan option that fits your financial goals and budget.

MYTH! ❌

While rising housing prices might be slowing down in some areas, this doesn't mean that prices are decreasing across the board. Some areas and markets might still see increases, while others could experience more significant drops.

Looking for ways to clean your kitchen without using harmful chemicals? Try this cleaning hack:

Mix equal parts vinegar and water, and use a spray bottle to apply the solution to the inside of the oven. Sprinkle baking soda over the solution, and let it sit for at least 15 minutes. Then, scrub the inside of the oven with a sponge or cloth. 🧽

It’s super simple, inexpensive, and most importantly, eco-friendly! πŸ™Œ
