Deborah Richwine has been living and working on the North Shore of Chicago for 40 years. Debbie has been a successful real estate broker for the past 20 years. Previous to her work as a REALTOR®, she worked in the financial services industry as a stockbroker. This experience has translated into her understanding of the housing and financial markets and how they are linked. Her main goal is to make the process of buying and/or selling a home a lot less intimidating and a whole lot more fun! Debbie actively works in the following North Shore markets: Winnetka, Glencoe, Wilmette, Northfield, Kenilworth, Evanston, Lincolnshire, Glenview, Highland Park and Lake Forest.
Working with Buyers
Debbie believes strongly in a team approach. By team she means you and her. She listens intently to your needs throughout the process and makes suggestions based on her own immersion in the marketplace. She is very hands-on and enjoys in-person contact. She enjoys helping first-time buyers navigate the process and find their ideal first investment. She is also adept at helping city-to-suburb or suburb-to-city buyers and prides herself on making any transition you may want to make a smooth one. Her knowledge and personal experience of the North Shore allows her to tour the neighborhoods with ease and provide you with any information you may need on the local schools, amenities, or market statistics. Whether you are buying a condo, single-family home, luxury property, or land Debbie can help you negotiate the best possible price and move into your next phase of life.
Working with Sellers
There is a reason that Debbie works for @properties Christie’s International Real Estate and it is because of the tools that they offer sellers. These marketing, showing, and print tools are unmatched and contribute to @properties Christie’s International Real Estate's #1 position in Chicago* and soon to be on the North Shore. Debbie believes in aggressively marketing your home on every major home search site, local print ads, and tapping into her own network of REALTORS® to find your buyer expeditiously. Your home will be featured on Zillow, Trulia, Realtor.com, and atproperties.com, just to name a few. She will be able to give you your number of online "virtual showings" and will communicate with you regularly with feedback on your showings so that you stay constantly "in the know" with what is happening with your sale. Debbie is passionate about real estate, which is a key to survival in even the most difficult markets. She wants to help people and she wants to sell your home.
