Heather has an uncanny gift of observation and listens more than she speaks - her honesty, compassionate sensibility and unpretentious personality complement her tenacious pursuit of quality living. Finding and procuring the ideal property at the best price with the best possible return on investment has been career defining. Heather, a lifelong resident of Chicagoland, having lived in Arlington Heights, Palatine, Inverness, River North, Lincoln Park, and West Town brings a solid understanding of the local flavor to the realm of real estate. Her extensive renovation and design experience led her homes to be featured in several magazines, newspapers, and television spots. As an owner and director of a tribal antiquities gallery for nearly twenty years, Heather traveled the world assembling an extensive inventory - while obtaining invaluable experience in the intuitive art of negotiation - often overcoming language and cultural barriers. Having been a landlord for decades, and now also an AirBnB proprietor for several years, Heather's knowledge on the advantages and disadvantages of short and long term rentals is extensive. Through direct experience, she has had to learn what it takes to establish and run successful short term rentals, and knows the importance of maintaining a healthy and happy tenant-landlord relationship. Having grown up with a mother who embodied real estate (a successful broker for over 30 years) Heather has inherited an invaluable personal network of service providers.
Heather was ABSOLUTELY amazing! She worked to get us the best deal, went out of her way to help us, and even went above and beyond with communicating everything with us. Heather took time to answer all of our questions almost instantly and gave us honest opinions. I would recommend Heather to everyone I know. Heather is so compassionate about her job and ensures she is doing everything t...
Excellent
Unfortunately our parents had passed and we needed to sell the house quickly. I’ve known Heather and her experience so it was easy for me to choose her to be our realtor. She was upfront about the market n she was honest. Our house went on the market in December and we had two offers within a week. Any questions any concerns we had she took care of everything! It was very difficult fo...
I'm settling into the new Condo that Heather Heinlein helped me find and purchase. The property was a foreclosure and the transaction was not easy. Heather dealt with a difficult situation with poise and wisdom. In the last minutes before closing the seller was trying to find a way to get more money from us and I would have caved but Heather held strong and saved me a lot of money and ti...
Heather always responds almost immediately. She listens to my concerns and explains, in plain English, what my options are. I would definitely refer her to my family and friends

Heather Heinlein was observant, quick with her calculations and patient with the seller or myself. Her years of experience could be seen in your our time together. From the early walk through with buyers to the final moments at closing she was professional and smart. I would highly recommend her for your own Home whether it be To Buy or Sale
From the initial meeting with review of comps and recommendations for listing, to staging for pictures, showings, and ultimately selling our home, Heather made what could be a stressful experience a breeze!
Heather was the perfect person to represent us and our family home. While it was difficult to sell our house which had been in the family for generations, Heather was sensitive and helped guide us in the process. Her recommendations and help in staging the house made the house more appealing, showing the house at its best, a house that we felt very proud to hand over to the new buyers.
Heather was great to work with. She always returned emails, texts, and phone calls very quickly. Our condo sold within 1 month of listing and we were happy with the price she got for us.

Heather Heinlein was everything I hoped for in a realtor and more. Behind her charming, kind, and positive personality is an extremely wise and experienced realtor who shows she cares about her clients, and not just closing a sale. Despite the fact it took over a year to find the right place, she was always patient and communicative, never pressured me, and in the end, helped me get a gr...
Heather was very familiar with the market for our condo. She communicated with us about other units for sale and helped us arrive at an appropriate price for listing. She was always at the other end of the phone when we needed her. She always immediately returned emails. Her voice and persona are calming when we displayed anxiety or worry. We came to fully trust her and relax and let her...
I used Heather to sell my mother's house and she was outstanding. She was instrumental in helping me get the house ready for sale. Heather is very professional and knowledgeable. She spent hours answering my questions and making me feel comfortable throughout the process. The House went under contract in 4 days. It was a very pleasant experience. I highly recommend Heather Heinlein.
Heather is an excellent agent. She is very professional, yet highly approachable - her very warm and caring personality shines through. She actually listens to your needs/wants and works hard to meet them. I’ve heard this same evaluation of her as an agent from other clients who have worked with her. Most of all she is HONEST, which is quite refreshing when buying or selling a home....
Heather was amazing to work with. She is truly great at her job. The experience was effortless on our part. Thank you so much for your professionalism and knowledge on selling homes. Tom M.
Heather was the best I could’ve asked for! I had a lot of wants so the selection was pretty small but she kept giving me great options and without her I don’t know what I would’ve done! She made the whole process a breeze!
When I found a condo I wanted I knew I needed a good realtor to help me buy it. I had worked with Heather in the past and found her to be a wealth of knowledge, an excellent communicator and a skilled negotiator. I feel good about the purchase and confident we made the best and most fair offer for both parties.
Heather helped me set up my condo so that it would be most presentable for the photographer who took pictures of my place for the listing. Next, she dedicated her weekend to running open house and as a result of all this she created a listing that attracted a lot of interest. With Heather's expertise in contract negotiation I was able to select the best of multiple offers on my condo. ...
Love working with Heather & Denise. Always available to talk to via phone, email or text. Appreciate all their advice, hard work.
We bought our condo through Heather and now she rented it for us. I love Heather's demeanor and personality. Our primary residence is in Texas and I wish Heather lived there to help us out. Being the first time we are going through the leasing process and bring a landlord, Heather has answered many questions making the transition easy.
Heather is an honest agent who really knows how to find you what you want. When looking around the city with her it was evident that she knew a lot about the neighborhoods I was interested in.

Heather was a joy to work with. I have only worked with a realtor one time before and she had her own agenda which did not include our best interest. Heather was completely opposite. She wanted us to be happy and make the correct decision. She showed us multiple places over a couple weeks until we found the right one. She was knowledgeable about Lincoln Park which is where we ultimately ...

Don't go it alone in finding a renter, the peace of mind with having Heather assist will make the process a breeze. ...
