Barbara Shields Real Estate

Barbara Shields Real Estate After being on one of the most successful teams on the North Shore for 15 years, I am thrilled to now work exclusively with my past and future clients.

With over 14 years experience in the real estate industry, Barbara Shields is a trusted name in the North Shore of Chicago where she was born, raised and educated. Barbara is a top-producing agent, dedicated to providing her clients with service on their terms, no exceptions. Barbara knows no two clients are alike. She approaches the client-broker relationship as a partnership where the client’s n

eeds are paramount at all times: building relationships based on communication, trust and honesty every step of the way. Barbara received her undergraduate and graduate degrees in business from DePaul University. For over 10 years she worked in the corporate world, learning and honing the deft marketing and client service skills that she applies to her job today. A graduate of the Harrington Institute of Design, Barbara is able to pair business acumen with an aesthetic and functional eye to help clients stage and position their homes for sale to command top dollar. Buyers benefit from her ability to “vision” how their new home can dovetail with their desired lifestyle and family needs. These skills, and a relentless pursuit of delighting clients, have made Barbara a top agent and leading producer unlike any other. To date, Barbara has over $300 million in sales on the North Shore. She attributes this success to her intimate “insider’s” knowledge of the marketplace, including the diverse towns, villages and schools that make up the area. Her fine-tuned negotiation skills—coupled with ’ state-of-art marketing program—result in unprecedented and unsurpassed service. Barbara prides herself on being an active member of her church and school communities and donates a portion of her earnings to JDRF which is an organization dedicated to finding a cure for Type 1 diabetes. Barbara lives in Wilmette with her husband and four children.
