Chicago Real Estate Artists (ChicagoREA.com) is a niche residential real estate brokerage that provides exceptional service at lower costs, focused on residential real estate in Chicago’s downtown loop and lakefront areas – from the South Loop through Lakeview, including the Loop, West loop, Lincoln Park, the Gold Coast, River North and Wicker Park. ChicagoREA's REALTORs are active across all divisions of residential real estate - helping buyers, sellers, landlords and renters with all transaction types, from Luxury home sales and leasing to REO, shortsale and foreclosure purchases, to property management. Chicago Real Estate Artists was formed in 2011 by Top Producer® real estate broker Michael Vrielink to be able to provide customized, flexible real estate solutions on a per client basis that have been frustratingly unavailable from traditional Chicago real estate brokerages. In the open real estate environment that transactions occur, we feel clients should be able to create a purchasing or selling plan that is specifically tailored, and priced, according to their needs.
