Juanita Soong: Out of the Box Thinking Juanita Soong is a Realtor who always employs 'out of the box' thinking when it comes to her listings, clients, and sales. She truly enjoys her job and the ability to match buyers with excellent properties, sell listings to create profit for her clients, and most importantly, the opportunity she gets to watch families find a wonderful home, flourish and grow. Juanita is, for lack of a better phrase, a 'one stop shop'. She has worked in both Commercial Real Estate and Residential Real Estate all over the Chicagoland area for over two decades. Her success has blossomed from finding creative solutions for buyers, sellers and investors in their marketplace. Juanita believes the key to being an exceptional Realtor is listening, knowing your market, and finding the highest and best usage of the product. She currently offices out of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage of Glenview, the number one real estate firm on the North Shore and serves the following communities residential and commercial real estate needs: Glenview, Northbrook, Northfield, Morton Grove, Skokie, Evanston, Wilmette, Winnetka, Glencoe, Niles, Des Plaines, Mount Prospect, Elk Grove Village, Schaumburg, Rolling Meadows, Arlington Heights, Palatine, Oakbrook (where she officed for 9 years), Westmont, Clarendon Hills, Hinsdale, and the surrounding Chicagoland areas including the downtown Chicago neighborhoods and industrial permitted sections. Juanita is proud that over 90% of her business is repeat clients and referrals to family and friends. It is a testament to the fact that she does her job well and her clients are happy and excited to work with her again. Residential SalesJuanita truly loves working with residential real estate clients. During the process she often relates real estate to real life. Having helped many individuals and families build new homes she will tell you that building a new home is like having a baby- It's a nine month process, you have to have patience and be prepared for what will happen. In contrast, preparing your home to sell is like preparing your daughter to get married. There's a lot of moving parts in this instance there is staging, creating space in the home, affording buyers the opportunity to visualize themselves in it. She assures every seller that their home will be marketing with the best resources and technological tools available. Every listing is featured on over 60 major news and search websites, and has its own professionally designed website with unique url. Your materials are designed by a skilled graphic artist and present your home in the best light to potential buyers. Having raised her own children, she understands when working with buyers that the schools and community life are of equal importance to the look and feel of the home itself. She will help direct you to resources so that you can choose the best community for your family to grow and develop. Juanita keeps in contact with her clients, who often become her friends, and delights in the privilege of being able to see their children grow, marry, and have their own children. Relationships, family, and life are essential to real estate and the best part of her job. Personal Background and FamilyJuanita was a school teacher for 12 years in Taiwan and still volunteers with students. She also held the position of Chinese School Principal at Purdue University for 4 years. For the past two decades she has been living and working in the Chicagoland area and currently lives in the Des Plaines community with her husband who is an engineer.
