I've had a passion for real estate ever since I was 19 years of age. However, I started off in Corporate America as a telecom engineer but quickly found out that the corporate lifestyle was not for me; I wanted to feel fulfilled in life, I needed to have a purpose. I started my real estate career in 2005 and have helped over 200+ buyers and sellers since then. I am here to help you take the steps to accomplish your home ownership goals.
As many first time homebuyers are confused because there
is just too much information online. I find that I create a knowledgeable environment for that homebuyer; it is not just about the information you find online but the human interaction, the ability to have someone there to hold your hand every step of the way. You will go through many different emotions: laughter, anger, anxiousness, happiness etc.; this is also the same for a seller. It will set your mind at ease to have me with you every step of the way.
I was previously certified as a women minority owner with the City of Chicago, Cook County and the State of IL and I have actively participated in opportunities with Illinois government entities. I am a Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Business Program alumnus. I was born and raised in Chicago and have a bachelor’s degree in Computer Information Systems from DeVry University and an associates degree in Computer Science. I am highly involved with social media you will see me on my latest venture in the newest platform which is periscope.
I always say Real Estate is a PEOPLE business. Creating relationships and maintaining them throughout my lifetime is the upmost importance to me. I am pretty straightforward and I don't monkey around. You can also catch me on my youtube channel at www.youtube.com/user/soniafigueroarealtor
