We hope everyone had a wonderful Fourth of July celebrating 250 years of this beautiful country! 🇺🇸

This time of year brings up so many wonderful traditions. Our favorite one is escaping up north for the weekend and spending quality time on the water.

Water is a sneaky culprit that can cause significant damage to your home if you don't pay attention. The best way to avoid it is to get ahead of it! Here's a simple way to prevent potential water damage to your foundation and basement.

Transformation Tuesday - Have you ever fallen in love with a fixer-upper? If your answer is "not since college", think about your relationship with the housing market. Oftentimes, clients like the idea of an older home but have a hard time looking past outdated finishes. Pro-tip: just because a house isn't custom-built from the ground up, doesn't mean you can't completely transform it to your liking. Even small changes, like new hardware on cabinets or a fresh coat of paint, can feel like a million dollar upgrade.

If you have a hard time visualizing a home's true potential, give us a call!

Meet the Rizzo real estate team! With 30 years of combined experience in home rehabs, working with investors, and real estate, Cindy and Greg have the knowledge you need to help you find your dream home. Together, the Rizzos have completed over 9 MILLION dollars in transactions and counting!

Cindy credits the influence of a dear friend for mentoring her early on in her career and showing her the ropes of the real estate industry. A natural self-starter, Cindy approaches all opportunities with determination and grit. Nicknamed the Honest Auntie by her family, Cindy never strays from telling the truth - which has made her a reliable REALTOR for her clients throughout the years. In her free time, Cindy enjoys time spent outside with her family. Whether it’s out on the water, on the golf course, or at The Friendly Confines - if the sun is out, so is she.

Greg found his passion for serving the public at an early age. Growing up, he admired the hard work his parents put into remodeling houses and adding value to their community. Greg's exposure to home rehab projects shaped his perspective of home-buying into a quality-focused mission. His patience and eye for detail have not only served him well in flipping houses, but have allowed him to excel as a REALTOR. Outside of real estate, Greg works as a full-time special education teacher. He is an avid outdoorsman who enjoys staying active, watching football and spending quality time with friends and family.

The search for your biggest investment should be approached with integrity, expertise, and care. The Rizzos will go the extra mile to help you find your dream home!

Buying a home will be your most significant financial investment, and for many, this can be a daunting prospect. You don't know where to begin, what to look for, and who to trust. That is where I come in! Data has shown that Illinois has one of the strongest real estate markets with year-over-year home appreciation. But what if I don't know where to buy or what to buy? I have an answer for that, too! I have been involved in rehabbing several homes. I can help you find a home in an area that you'll love, so you'll never have to worry about whether your home will appreciate in value or not. I can inform you about what needs to be fixed so you can accurately put in an offer, what structural aspects to look for in a home, provide ideas on how to update your new home within your price range to make it your own, and much more. My job is not to sell you any home but instead to find you a home that you love and one that won't break the bank. Consider giving me a call today, and we can set up a no-pressure meeting to discuss your goals and what you're looking for.
