Our Story

About

When we began working in real estate, our children were small, our dreams were big, and our client list was short. More than twenty years have since past. Our children have graduated, our house is quieter. The time has flown by. For all of these years, we have been lucky to have a beautiful place to call home. We have hosted birthdays and holidays, slept the afternoon away on the couch (one of us snores), and shared pizza in front of the TV. Our backyard has been a place to play, tend a garden, gather with friends. We know how important real estate is as an asset, but we also know the true value of home. Our goal is to make sure your dreams become a reality, whether it’s moving up, moving out, or finding that first place to call home. 

 

We hope when you learn more about us, you’ll feel confident trusting us as your real estate partners.

Carmen

Carmen began her professional career as a legal document translator with a corporate immigration law firm in Chicago. She earned her real estate license in 2003 and joined Coldwell Banker together with Tony in 2007. She has been a frequent guest speaker and trainer within the Coldwell Banker organization, and has served as an internal consultant for management on office administration and business process improvement.

​

Her professional commitments have included membership in the National Association of Realtors, as well as serving as a member of the Government Relations Committee, and Chair of the Chicago Association of Realtors’ Fair Housing Forum. She has enjoyed serving as a State Legislative Committee Liaison since 2017 for the Illinois Association of Realtors.

​

Carmen  was raised in Chicago’s Edgewater neighborhood. She is one of six children, a proud product of both the public and private school systems in the city, and studied law and history at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb. In 2016 the Chicago Cubs became baseball’s World Champions, something that has no relevance to her professional profile, but it bears repeating as often as possible anyway. 

Tony

Tony worked his way through college as production assistant with one of Chicago’s premier public relations firms. He began his professional career as an accountant with a corporate patents and trademarks law firm in Chicago. He left the firm after receiving his real estate license in 1997, and first worked with a family-owned brokerage before building his own boutique residential real estate office. He joined Coldwell Banker with his wife and partner, Carmen in 2007. He has been a residential real estate specialist, providing mentorship and consultation to junior brokers within the Coldwell Banker organization, and has provided training on transaction processing and management.

​

His professional commitments have included membership in the National Association of Realtors, the Illinois Association of Realtors and the local Chicago Association of Realtors.

​

Tony is an engaged member of his local community and has served since 2018 as the President of the Alumni Advisory Board for Northeastern Illinois University. He is a legacy member of the Hollywood-North Park Community Association, a former Board Member of the North River Commission, and a Corporate Sponsor of Chicago’s North Park Community Market. ​Tony was raised in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood. He is an occasional but enthusiastic Cuban cigar aficionado and enjoys travel, gardening, and DIY projects.
