TONI VAN ERT
REALTOR + DESIGNER + RENOVATOR
A lifelong passion for houses, a gift for creating beautiful spaces and nearly 20 years of experience as a marketing executive are the resources that truly set Toni Van Ert apart in the realm of real estate. After completing major renovations on her first house, Toni was inspired to act as general contractor and designer on larger projects culminating in the dramatic expansion and makeover of her current southeast Evanston home on Dempster Street.
A graduate of Michigan State University, Toni has an MBA in marketing from DePaul University. She held management postions at several Fortune 500 companies, partnered on start up teams for two successful web based businesses and founded her own special events company. With her extensive experience in marketing and renovations as well as a remarkable eye for design, Toni is uniquely qualified to assist clients in making solid real estate decisions.
She helps sellers transform their homes to sell quickly at maximum price and buyers to find the perfect fit. If buyers need a little help turning their new property into their ultimate dream home, Toni is uniquely connected to help make that a reality. In a highly competitive market, her keen instincts, design savvy and boundless energy give her clients a distinct advantage. She brings an unparalleled dedication to her work, ensuring that even the smallest details are considered and perfected before, during and after the sale.
When Toni's not selling houses you can find her and her husband, Greg, enjoying the lakefront with their children, Jack, Kate and Janie, and a curiously oversized Labrador retriever named Huck. An Evanstonian since 1999, Toni has served as PSO president for St. Athanasius School, served multiple terms on the Northminster Nursery School Board and participated in many clubs, activities and service projects.
