hen you first meet Kristy, she’s not going to ask The original kitchen was crowded and awkwardly laid out, such that you about the kitchen you want, she’s going to ask if someone was cooking - which grandma often was - it was very you about your life. Who are you? Who uses this difficult for anyone else to move around. The range wall separated space, do you have kids, do you have pets, what activities happen the kitchen from the living room, carving both into very small here, what does your daily schedule look like, do you cook, do spaces, and making it so that the cook was completely cut off from you entertain, how often, how many people, and maybe most anyone else in the room. Entertaining in this area was absolutely importantly, what do you HATE about the space you have now? out of the question, and traffic flow was akin to Downtown rush “Clients often struggle to convey what they want, saying things like hour. ‘we have no idea what’s even possible in here,’ but they have no difficulty whatsoever telling me how much they loathe AFTER BEFORE their hands-free faucet or what a joke their storage is.” If you think any of the questions above sound unrelated to a kitchen remodel, you’d be mistaken. For most people, the kitchen is the central hub of daily life. Kristy works from the premise that

“

The right design is going to change the quality of your life inside your home, and the quality of your life at home has a massive impact on the way you show up in the world.

“Yes, I DO want to see the inspiration pictures you’ve saved on Houzz and Pinterest, but then I’m going to dissect them based on the information you’ve given me to determine whether that is something that will truly function well for YOUR life. My intent is not only to give you a kitchen that looks gorgeous, but that functions flawlessly and will support you through many seasons of life to come. I’m going to find solutions for your pain points, and THEN I’m going to wrap a beautiful design around them.” For this Deerfield family of four, it started with the fact that the kitchen was chaos. The wife’s mother was living with them at the time, and their two boys were young teens zooming from one activity to the next. Since the pandemic, husband and wife both work in and outside the home, so schedules were all over the place.

AFTER

BEFORE

“Sometimes,” Kristy says, “you don’t just need to get out of the box, you need to throw the box in the trash, because it wasn’t a good box to begin with.” She collaborated with the architect and contractor to design this gorgeous mid-century-meets-modern galley. The offending wall between the rooms was removed, creating space for a huge island, perfect for both prep and socializing, while the newly widened aisle allows effortless movement. The walnut grain of the cabinets was run horizontally to harmonize with the lines of the mid-century split-level. The quartz countertops were continued up the extra-tall backsplash for lightness and an elegant simplicity. The ceiling was raised with a tray that runs the entire length of the room, effecting a sense of airiness one would not have expected this kitchen could achieve. Of the decision to blend the walnut and charcoal painted cabinet colors, Kristy says, “We were combining several chopped-up areas into one larger space with quite a lot of cabinetry. Utilizing the different colors kept the walnut grain from overwhelming the small room, while also visually delineating the functional areas. We picked up the charcoal color in the hardware, the veining of the quartz, and the accents throughout for a subtle continuity.” It’s clear that when you start by asking the right questions, the result is a luxurious design that looks like it should always have been there, while seamlessly supporting your desired lifestyle. If you’re interested in transforming your living spaces with the guidance of a designer who prioritizes functional and personalized design, reach out to Kristy to discuss your goals and specific needs!

MAJOR ECONOMY AND LOW-COST HOUSING OPTIONS Chicago boasts one of the nation’s most robust economies, housing the headquarters of numerous Fortune 500 companies, including United Airlines, Walgreens, Allstate, and McDonald’s. Home to one of the Federal Reserve Banks and the Chicago Stock Exchange, the city serves as a financial center. Also, it hosts prominent manufacturing, tech, insurance, and healthcare enterprises. Despite its thriving economy, Chicago offers a distinct advantage with its affordable housing options, setting it apart from similarly sized cities such as New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. According to Redfin, as of September 2023, the median sale price of a home in Chicago was $335,000, which is well below the national average.

About Aaron Having been primarily in residential real estate for almost two decades, my career has seen numerous changes and challenges. Almost immediately in the begining, there waa a market downturn. Then I learned to work with clients who were upside down in their properties. I became familiar with negotiating with banks to help owners make soft landings to transition out of their homes. Fast forward to the two properties here. The urban loft I helped the couple aquire some years back. It had all the originals. I worked with a company to provide the seller with funds, worked with a contractor and totally upgraded the space with my design ideas. The urban farmhouse I used my experience working with foreclosures to help my client aquire the property to flip. I then worked to consult on the layout and then with the staging designer to furnish the home. Put my versatility and depth of experience to work for YOUR real estate dreams and needs.

ABOUT MY STORY Monica Walus a real estate agent and an investor herself, with extensive knowledge in construction and interior design my clients feel confident working with me. As a seller’s agent I help advise them on making small upgrades to their property for a quicker and a more profitable sale, without remodeling the entire home. As a buyer’s agent I help them find properties with great potential that they might overlook just because it might visually be unappealing. Most buyer’s unless they are in construction have a hard time envisioning a property after a mini facelift. Also, most are afraid of the cost associated with the remodel, that’s where my expertise comes in to help them navigate if a home is a good fit for their budget if it requires some remodel.

As an investor I purchase homes in which I see potential and take on these projects to add already remodeled homes for buyers who are looking for a turnkey move-in ready home. My first venture started with my parent’s home, I saw its hidden potential and I put in an offer minute it came on the market, my mother nearly fainted when she walked in, for her it was overwhelming for me I envisioned transforming it into their beautiful dream forever home. Once the house was completed, they fell in love with it. Renovations can be a rollercoaster ride, but for me it’s exciting every time. This home was our first home that my husband and I bought. After we moved to our current home, It was being rented for 10 years, as with any rental it showed wear and tear both inside and out. We decided to finally sell the home and knew it needed a bit of TLC, so I decided to make it the best looking home on the block. Home went under contract within two weeks.

GET TO KNOW

Brooke Wilke Serving Chicago Suburbs, Kane, and Dupage Counties Illinois Licensed Realtor 815.298.5154 agentbrookewilke@gmail.com www.bestrealtyproperties.com Facebook & insta: @agentbrookewilke Allow me to introduce myself – I’m Brooke Wilke, and I’d like to share a bit about my background. Born and raised in Northern Illinois, this region holds a special place in my heart. My journey has taken me through various experiences that have shaped who I am today. After spending over 20 years living in the Chicago area and a brief period in Edwardsville, IL, where I graduated from Southern Illinois University, I ventured into the world of real estate. During this time, I operated short-term rentals and managed a portfolio of investment properties. My passion for real estate was further influenced by my mother, a top-producing real estate agent, and my father, the owner and managing broker of Best Realty. Prior to diving into real estate, I spent five successful years as an event coordinator and catering manager, orchestrating a wide range of events from weddings to festivals. Although I enjoyed my time in St. Louis and Edwardsville, my roots in Northern Illinois called me back home, specifically to St. Charles. In 2021, I joined the family business, Best Realty, and began my journey as a realtor and marketing assistant. This training has been invaluable, placing me at the forefront of the evolving real estate marketing landscape, including the impact of social media. My reputation in the industry is built on being thorough, kind, and straightforward. I approach each client relationship with sincerity, forward-thinking strategies, and an unwavering commitment to providing exceptional service. With my recent move to Best Realty, I have access to a network of professionals, including contractors, photographers, and marketing experts. Whether you’re buying or selling, I can connect you with the very best team to support you before, during, and after your transaction. If you’re seeking a personalized and professional real estate experience, someone who delivers on every aspect, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I’m here to serve you and help you achieve your real estate goals. 74

Brooke did a great job guiding us through the house-buying experience. This was our first home and they really made sure to be receptive of any and all questions. They were thoughtful and made sure the big day was special. We loved working with them and plan to keep their contact information for future use. “ - D.B. Brooke answered all questions that we had very quickly and was able to work around our busy schedules. Brooke and Scott made the selling process easy to understand as we were first time homeowners. I would highly suggest buying or selling through Brooke to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable professional with experience.” - G.M.

AGENT SPOTLIGHT When you choose a real estate broker to help you buy or sell your home, or invest in real estate, what do you really know about them? Given the amount of money involved, you ideally want to know what they are like to work with, how successful they are and their core values. Moving home is an emotional, complicated journey so the person you work with needs to be there with you every step of the way. It’s not just about finding a house if you’re buying, or finding a buyer if you’re selling. Once that offer has been accepted, does your realtor have the experience of getting through the inspection, appraisal and to the closing table? If you chose to work with me you’ll be joining over 40 other clients I have successfully helped in the past 12 months. This accounts for over 50 transactions and $20 million in sales in 2022 alone, and crucially; a whole lot of experience of this current complicated and competitive market. To give you some context, I finished 2022 as the top producer at my office of over 120 brokers and in the top 1% of brokers in Northern Illinois according to MainStreet, who have over 20,000 Realtor members. The personal pressures of moving can be as huge for you as the excitement, having moved countries from England to Chicago in 2018, you have a Realtor on your side that understands everything you’re feeling whether you’re moving down the street or across the World. That’s why I’m proud to have been asked to join the Baird & Warner Global Relocation Team.
