Helping you find the home of your choice
Expert knowledge of the Chicagoland & South Florida Market.
I was raised in South Chicagoland and also spent significant time in South Florida. I truly believe these are two of the best places to call home and raise a family. My lifelong familiarity with both the Chicagoland and South Florida areas makes me uniquely positioned to help you buy or sell a home at the best possible price.
I bring a fresh perspective, a passion for helping clients, and a strong commitment to personalized service. My goal is to understand your unique needs and provide you with the highest level of service, ensuring a smooth and successful transaction.
I will help you understand local market conditions so you feel in control of your search and get you acquainted with neighborhoods that align with your preferences and price point.
David & Heather Sanchez
It was incredibly important to have someone with a real depth of local knowledge and be able to be aggressive with confidence.
Streamline your search and contextualize the market efficiently
Buying a home is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make. It’s often emotional and for many, time consuming. I’ve developed a streamlined three-step system to make your time spent in the process efficient and judicious.
I combine your goals and my insider knowledge of the area with a data-driven approach to help you focus only on the homes that you feel will be a candidate for purchase within three to seven target neighborhoods. On average, my clients see less than ten homes before purchasing (in the last year, four even bought the first home they saw!).
Sruthi and Rakesh
Ghazi didn’t focus on selling his services. Instead, he spent time understanding what we were looking for and took a genuine interest in helping us find the right home.
Negotiate the best possible price for your home
With years of experience in marketing, sales, and negotiation, and having navigated countless multiple-offer situations, many of my clients have shared that my expert negotiation skills significantly impacted the deals they made.
Vatsal Bhardwaj & Sonam Sharma
Closing a home post purchase can be stressful with multiple things to chase down but many many thanks to Ghazi, he kept us calm and made it seamless for us.
Provide personalized service and dedicated support
Who you choose to represent you is incredibly crucial in our competitive market. I don’t just show up at the beginning and the end to close a deal; I am hands on and heavily involved from start to finish, and will be your main point of contact from our initial meetings until after you get your keys to your new home. Working with my incredible team ensures you can view homes quickly and at a convenient time for you, and write purchase contracts quickly. Writing an offer typically takes 5 to 8 hours of your time. The decision-making process can be quick. We make sure you feel comfortable, supported and in the driver’s seat throughout the entire process.
Debbie Byrne & Brie Ahern
From our first meeting until we closed on our home Ghazi was always available and an invaluable advocate.
Highly regarded in the real estate community
The reputation and professionalism of the agent you select are important to helping you achieve not only the home you want, but the home you want at a price you feel is fair. I’m proud of the excellent reputation I have earned in the real estate community which reduces the number of offers our clients need to write to get what they want. An agent’s reputation — and their reputation for integrity — can significantly impact the success of a real estate transaction.
Aneesha Aggarwal & Arpan Punyani
Ghazi is the best in the business, mostly because he and his team were very hands on throughout the process, and proactively managed the process every step of the way.
Save time and gain valuable insights with my three-step process
My three-step process helps businesses save time, gain insights, improve efficiency, optimize strategies, boost productivity, and achieve success.
