More About Me

Celeste Huenergard

A native Oregonian before most people knew what that meant, I moved to Chicago
35 years ago after a five-year publishing stint in Italy to live in a real city. I've never
looked back.

I've lived, worked and raised a family in the Gold Coast and Streeterville. And am
equally at home in River North, Lake Shore East, the South Loop and its younger
cousin, the West Loop, , Lincoln Park, Lake View, Rogers Park. Edgewater, among
many others.

I know their buildings, communities, schools and vendors -- their strengths and their
opportunities.

My editorial background makes me good at probing to help you determine your
needs and what's really important to you. My Fortune-500 communications stints
have fine-tuned my marketing and negotiating skills

I'm told I inherited my mother's ingenuity and intuition and my father's indefatigable
work ethic. My clients compliment me on my people skills, integrity and a gift for infusing
joy into the process.

Beyond a good book or a trip to a never-visited destination -- my clients are my passion

Testimonials
"Staged my home beautifully using my own things, priced it correctly, was available to me 24/7, kept me apprised continuously, was articulate and always gracious -- and sold my downtown condo quickly and to a qualified and equally gracious buyer. It was a highly rewarding -- both financially and emotionally -- experience." Helen L (Streeterville pre-war condo)

"I never thought finding a home as out-of-towners on a deadline would turn out to be so enjoyable and accomplish our goals but it was and it did with Celeste. She helped us identify Old Town and exactly what were looking for, let us to the perfect 3-bed duplex, negotiated a great price and held our hands throughout. She is the best!" Adam D (Old Town vintage duplex)
