"My clients are always my top priority. By providing knowledgeable market insight, listening to your needs, and always striving to make buying or selling your home an enjoyable experience, I truly become your partner throughout the real estate process." -- Erica Ckuj

My goal as a Realtor is to create an enjoyable experience based on communication, honesty, and trust, where I serve as your advisor and ally from beginning to end. I feel it is my responsibility to consistently study market pricing and trends, learn new technologies, and explore the many different emerging neighborhoods so that you are able to make a well educated and informed decision.

To each client I make a pledge of the following:

• I will advise and negotiate with your best interest in mind
• I will provide cutting-edge market trend data on your property
• I will help you explore new neighborhoods that match your lifestyle
• I will exhaust every marketing effort to generate exposure for your home
• I will never make you feel pressured during the transaction

Buying or selling a home for the right price is only a small part of the equation, but where many in my industry stop. I run my business by referrals, which means that my livelihood depends solely on your satisfaction. I hope to become the life-long advisor of your current and future real estate needs. To do this I will serve as your educator, your confidant, and most importantly, your friend.

The Jeanine Wheeler Group is a team of top-producing Realtors focused on providing "concierge" level service to their clients. By aligning myself with these professionals, I am able to increase the attention I provide to each client while drawing off of the expertise of some of the best in the business.

In my free time I enjoy spending time outdoors biking or with my dog Luci, and supporting causes important to me such as PAWS Chicago and Children's Memorial Hospital.

"In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different."
