After spending twelve successful years as a human resources consultant and corporate leader in Chicago, Heather knew that it was time for a change. So in 2007 she made the leap into real estate and hasn't looked back!

In those years she has helped hundreds of clients realize their dream of buying or selling their Chicago home.

As a Chicago native, Heather understands the diversity and the different lifestyles offered by each neighborhood in this vibrant, appealing city. In the last 15 years she has lived in Ravenswood, Roscoe Village and Lakeview and as a full-time agent, Heather is dedicated 24/7 to her clients' needs. Her strong work ethic and commitment to excellence ensures that from the beginning to the end of her clients' home buying or selling process, no detail is missed.

Heather is a graduate of the University of Denver and has an MBA from Northwestern's Kellogg Graduate School of Management. In her free time she spends time with her husband Jens and her two young sons, Pierce & Chase and her two lovable mutts, Syndey & Laika.

Always responsive. Delivers news good or bad in a straight forward manner. Heather is a pro and knows what she is doing. Very creative and flexible.

Heather s superior knowledge of Chicago s real estate market and her dedication to us made our entire real estate search stress-free and enjoyable from beginning to end.

She was always willing to be by our side and explain the purchasing process each step of the way....

I just want to say Heather is one of the best real estate agents ever! She was so patient and kind. She's very knowledgeable and was able to find me the perfect condo. She made my home buying process easy and stress free. Thank you Heather and Dream Town Realty for all of your help. Towanda Harris, South Loop

Working with Heather was a fantastic experience. She was very patient with us throughout the entire process, always willing to answer our questions and fully explain where we were at in the process. She provided up to date communication and you always knew where you stood in the process. Being fairly new to the home buying process, Heather provided a lot of insight and knowledge that hel...

Heather is a breath of fresh air amongst the world of real estate. She is highly knowledgeable, thoughtful, responsive, enthusiastic, and patient enough to always have another home to view, or helpful comments on why the house you just saw is good or bad. Her goal is to ensure that you find the home you truly want. I look forward to our next purchase with her. Ken Bahk, Lakeview

Heather and Sarahjane were absolutely brilliant! They were always available, quick with responses, and up-front and honest with us. They worked tirelessly to market and show the home we were selling, and we simply had a blast with both of them shopping for our new home.

We had a clear idea of what we were looking for but after visiting numerous properties over many, many months we still didn't find "the one." Heather kept us on track and from losing hope that we would never find that perfect place. We couldn't be happier in our new condo and could not have done it without Dream Town! We recommend working with Heather, especially to first time home buyer...

I don't think that we could have found a more patient real estate agent - we were considering two completely different types of properties which added to the complexity of our home search, but Heather was very supportive and had a good understanding of what we were looking for. It is helpful that she is extremely knowledgeable about the Chicago neighborhoods, and we really valued her opi...

As being first time home owners we were very skeptical, afraid, excited as well as overwhelmed with all the decisions, choices and nature of this the home buying experience. Heather was extremely patient in accommodating our needs by explaining each step. She addressed all our concerns, never rushed or pressured us and gave us excellent guidance with all the background information t...

Heather's greatest skill is the close...and I have to say it is one of the most important. In that crucible, so much can change so quickly, you need a knowledgeable and skilled person on your side to navigate the turbulence. Heather has a grasp of what's real in the market, a knack for communicating with all types of agents, and a follow-through to get it done (not to mention the ability...

As first time home buyers I don't think we could have had a better realtor than Heather. Heather is extremely patient and truly cares about her clients. She took the time to educate us on the aspects of buying a home rather than simply push us through the process. During our long search (almost 2 years), which started in the northwest suburbs and ultimately ended in Lakeview, Heather was...

If you want the best real estate agent, heather is the one. Trustworthy, bright, very responsive, and fun!

We were very pleased with our experience with Heather. She had an expert knowledge of the process and went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly, in spite of some complicating factors beyond her control. Heather represented us in both the purchase and sale of our home, and had we not left the Chicago area we would have loved to continue working with her to find our nex...

Heather is very knowlegeable and also a pleasure to work with. She has impeccable integrity, which is very important given the amount of money involved. She is always responsive and patiently handles all questions.

Heather was amazing! Having recently relocated to Chicago from Dallas, we were initially concerned about whether we would be able to find affordable real estate options in such a high cost location after being in a very low cost location for 16 years. Heather helped us with the process and took us through all the various housing options in Chicago and we were very much appreciative. She ...

Heather was friendly, professional and very responsive. She seemed very knowledge about the local housing market, and was very perceptive about our property preferences. We would definitely recommend her to someone else.

Heather really guided our family through the process of buying a condo in the city. We are suburbanites with no knowledge of what to consider when buying a condo, Heather really walk us through what all we needed to consider. I had also ask Heather that my daughter who was going to be the primary resident of this condo be included in the process, again Heather fully explained to her all ...

Heather was fantastic, I called her just out of the blue (based on an outdated listing) and am so glad i connected with her. She helped me find and buy a place that I love, all within a month. She was fantastic about explaining all the steps to me and answering all my questions; she gave great advice and I could tell she really was trying to get me the best deal and making sure I didn't ...

Heather is a wonderfully personable, knowledgable agent, who consistently worked to provide us with listings that fit our wants and needs. She worked dilligently to get us into houses that were not only within our price range but also fit our strigent criteria regarding neighborhood and school system needs. Heather truly provided us with a 5-star experience, and I will definitely be reco...

Thanks so much for everything! We had a great experience and found our dream home. Thanks for taking the time to help us become familiar with the different options so that when we found the right one we were ready to make the move. We don't plan on selling any time soon, but we'll be calling you again next time we move for sure! Megan & Jeff Hamilton

She was very straightforward with what to expect from a market perspective. She had alot of knowledge and pointed out features and potential issues about some of the homes when we were touring them. She knew what we were looking for and ultimately suggested we see a home that we didn't have on our list and ultimately purchased! I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Heather was absolutely great! She made the process as easy as possible on me. Even with some bumps along the way, she still made sure everything would work out. She was always able to work around my schedule, which was great. I was very happy with my experience and I would definitely recommend Heather to others!

She was very informative and made me feel comfortable being a first-time buyer. I was very happy with my experience and I will plan to use her services again in future transactions.

Working with Heather was a truly great experience! As a first time home buyer, I had lots of questions and Heather patiently and expertly answered all of them. She has great knowledge of Chicago and its changing real estate market, and helped me find a condo that I'm really happy with. I highly recommend Heather for anyone looking for a new place in Chicago.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Heather. Heather is extremely knowledgeable on real estate in the Chicago area. My husband and I worked with her for almost a year in our pursuit to find the "perfect" home and she was extremely patient with us through the entire process. She would always provide us with enough data and information, so we could make an informed decision. I would h...

Heather is very efficient and effective in her helping my son to find the condo close to his office in downtown Chicago as per my son’s criteria of purchase. She always answered our emails/phone calls as soon as she could. Moreover, she successfully negotiated with the seller’s agent for our offering price. It’s been our pleasure to work with Heathe...

Heather took on the sale of my condo with vigor and really ran with it. I was really amazed at how fast she had folks walking through. She was very professional and effective in securing a buyer. Her team was super helpful, in setting up pictures, securing potential workers to take care of necessary repairs in the condo, as well as offering to be available to assist workers and cleaning ...

Heather was incredibly responsive, organized, and incredibly helpful through every part of the buying process. I couldn't have asked for better service.

Heather is a wonderful realtor. She helped me sell my condo in the west loop when I lived in San Diego. I had not worries under her care. I used we again to buy a house in North riverside and she traveled many times and made the deal happen. She is a wonderful person and friend.

Working with Heather was an amazing experience. Her knowledge, experience, advice and genuine caring eliminated our apprehensions and concerns. The selling process was smooth sailing from beginning to end. Our house was sold in two days, all the credit goes to Heather. I would definitely recommend Heather to friends. She is honest, sincere and always there for her clients. ...

Heather is a trustworthy, experienced real estate professional who will get your place sold for top dollar. She spent over an hour with me going through the comps and the strategy for putting my place on the market. From the date of listing, I was under contract in less in a week and the deal was closed in less than three. It was a fast, seamless process and I am forever grateful for Hea...

Heather is one amazing agent, who will do everything necessary to meet your real estate needs. In a little over a year, she sold our two condos and helped us purchase our new home. My wife's condo had been listed in the past by 3 agents with no luck. Heather was able to sell it close to our asking price. My condo, the one that we lived in, needed painting and carpet replacement. She took...

This is the second time we've worked with Heather and again had a great experience. We appreciated her industry knowledge and advice throughout the process of both selling and buying condos. She was great at understanding what we really needed and wanted and taking time to talk us through our options. She has a great network of vendors in the industry, as well, which was useful as we bro...

Heather has assisted me in two home purchases and one home sale. My second home purchase was in the west suburbs and she was very accommodating with scheduling viewings. She met us out there on weekends as well as week nights. After looking at homes in several different neighborhoods we finally found the perfect home in the perfect neighborhood within our price range. The hom...

Heather was always available when we came in from out of town. She attended to our specifications and desires

Heather was great, she went out of her way to help us, often jumping at the drop of a hat to get from the city to Gurnee to show us a house when we were worried that it might go before we got there. I'd totally recommend her to anyone looking in the area.

Heather was a pleasure to work with. I was referred by a friend who had a great experience, and Heather did not disappoint. She gave us tons of useful information and gave us confidence to make the right decision in our buying process. We are very happy with the condo we bought, and we would not hesitate to bring in Heather again for any buying/selling in the future!

Heather was wonderful!!! She is prompt, thorough and professional. I highly recommend Heather!!
