"Mary is a breath of fresh air. I work in an industry that requires me to work closely with real estate agents. From both my buying experience and work experience, I can easily say Mary is elite amongst her colleagues. Her knowledge of the city is unparalleled. She went above and beyond my expectations responding to me quickly with any questions or concerns. Mary also is a terrific negotiator! I felt confident her skills would enable me to get a great deal and I did. If you are looking for an amazing agent and also a great person, it would be worth reaching out to her. Thank you for everything Mary"

"Mary really did an excellent job. She had a firm mastery of the market and did an excellent job in positioning and pricing my unit. We put it on the market on Tuesday, and had a deal in hand at an excellent price on Thursday."

"When I decided to sell my Chicago condo in 2016, I interviewed 4 different agents. Mary was number 4 and the one I signed a contract with. Mary was kind, trustworthy and knowledgeable. She made me feel very comfortable and never let me down. She priced my condo to sell along with getting me a fair price. She always accompanied prospective buyers which was my wish. Mary knows her business, understands the emotions involved and gets the job done. I give Mary 5 stars."

"I have known Mary for over 5 years. She knows the Chicago market extremely well, has great connections for off-market properties, and is fantastic at helping you negotiate to reach a fair deal, whether you’re on the buy or sell side. As a person who is active in buying and selling properties, the thing I value most about Mary is her willingness to be open and provide me with her opinion on the positives and negatives of each situation, not just what I want to hear in order to get a deal done. In my experience, this is a rare but very important trait in the industry and is why she is my broker."

"Mary was recommended to us when we were moving to Chicago from out of state, and little did we know how valuable that recommendation would be. She helped us understand all the ins and outs of Lincoln Park and made us feel completely comfortable choosing a home from afar. The one weekend we were able to look at places, she spent virtually the entire time with us, making sure we got the most out of our visit. When our family expanded and we needed a bigger home, Mary was the first call we made."

"I cannot say enough good things about Mary! She is extremely knowledgeable of the Chicago market and is an overall wonderful human being. She truly took the time to understand what I was looking for, was a great listener and tailored our search accordingly. The home buying process is stressful but Mary carefully walked me through each step and kept my mind at ease knowing that I was in good hands. She did everything in her power to make this an enjoyable experience to the point that I miss going out to see homes with her on the weekends! I look forward to working with Mary again in the future and am so thankful to have found my dream home with her help."

"Phenomenal! She’s professional, fierce, nice, and funny! She sold my place in 6 days. She’s an expert on pricing/the market and staging. I would recommend Mary to anyone and everyone! Two different neighbors recommended her—both with higher-end properties; yet she worked as hard for me. Mary is top notch!"

Specialties
Born in Pittsburgh but raised in the Chicago suburbs, Mary originally pursued a career in telecommunication sales in San Francisco after graduating from the University of Kentucky, where she studied social work and psychology. Her relocation back home from the west coast also marked her decision to enter real estate thanks to the advice of her parents, who recognized her innate people skills and genuine concern for others’ well-being. Immediately hooked by her Realtor course, Mary soon joined Sussex & Reilly, an Illinois-based real estate brokerage founded by Sean Conlon. She selected the firm largely because of Sean and the opportunity to work side-by-side with the industry titan.
Mary is known for her ability to put people at ease and to earn clients’ confidence, the true hallmarks of an outstanding communicator in both words and actions. A Chicago resident, she possesses extensive experience helping people buy and sell property in a myriad of the city’s neighborhoods, namely Lincoln park, as well as Lakeview, River North, Gold Coast, Bucktown, Wicker Park, Streeterville and West Loop. Her clients include first-time buyers, families, investors and empty nesters while she is incredibly knowledgeable about townhomes, single-family homes, multi-units, and condominiums. Most importantly, she dedicates equal attention to each client because she understands a real estate decision is truly life-changing.
Now back with the Compass family Mary's career has come full circle. Mary spends most of her time away from real estate with her daughter, and best friend, Charlotte, their dogs Archie & Betty and their cats Mia & Millie. Mary enjoys workout classes, cooking, and dining out. Chicago’s style and the beauty of its architecture make her career as a Realtor as exciting for her as it is for her clients. Without a doubt, Mary loves what she does and the people for whom she does it, and that enthusiasm resonates in each relationship she builds and every transaction she executes.
