"We have been working with David Schwabe in the Arlington Heights area since 2007 and we just listed and sold our 3rd property with him in 2021. We've been fortunate to capitalize upon David's depth of market knowledge in the NW Suburban Chicago area. He and his team are always responsive, personable and show attention to detail. In one such instance, it was a dreary day when the photographer arrived to take the listing photos, but his team member went back to take a photo of the outside of our property on a sunny day for cheery curb appeal. Real estate transactions have the potential to be stressful, but our experiences have always been a breeze with David." - Elina

His knowledge about the area and insight the locations was helpful. David proved himself to be a super resourceful and helpful guy. Tons of personal experience in the real estate field and always had an answer, or joke, to all our questions. I would recommend him to anyone that is looking for a future home. Thank you David!" - Nasir

"David and his team did an excellent job in helping my family navigate the Arlington Heights real estate market. He was very knowledgeable about this market and was able to connect us to the relevant service providers. He provided able counsel regarding the sale of our house and guided us in creating a very good sales strategy for our home. His suggestions were very helpful and we were very impressed by the photography and setup of our home's listing. The sale went very smoothly and the closing occurred much more quickly than I had expected. David and his team were able to generate ample interest in our home and we are very satisfied with the results. We would not hesitate to use him again for our real estate needs. " - Hong

About David
David has a passion for helping people and has found that assisting people in selling their homes in a challenging market is what makes his career rewarding. With a degree in Mechanical Engineering and a background in Project Management, he brings a completely different dimension to selling homes. He has stated that "marketing a home should be a systematic approach that never overlooks any one part of the process." David believes that every home on the market for sale should be staged to its highest potential. In a market that is saturated with houses, the listing agent must prepare the home to bring the emotion out of the buyer to get the home sold.

Born and raised in Wisconsin, David obtained his degree in Mechanical Engineering from Marquette University in Milwaukee. He quickly relocated to Arlington Heights in 1991 and worked for an engineering firm in downtown Chicago where he focused on Project Management and equipment acquisition. He later moved into the manufacturing sector and received his first sales position. It was here that David realized his passion for helping others. David eventually became a REALTOR® in 2002, and it became apparent that it was a perfect fit. After a few short years, his business grew, and he realized that to service his clients properly, he would have to start a team. It was then in 2006 that The Schwabe Group was formed.

David has a beautiful wife and four children. His family continues to live and grow in Arlington Heights. He has had the opportunity to participate in coaching soccer at the park district level in Arlington Heights and Buffalo Grove for many years. David has also had the privilege of working on a local, private school board and donates his time working on marketing functions for the school. He believes that giving back to the community is a necessity. It makes our towns stronger and re-energizes the spirit.
