About Chad

I made this move.
Now I help others do the same.

I grew up in the Chicago area and relocated to Kenosha myself. I know what the questions feel like because I had every single one of them. Taxes. The commute. The neighborhoods. The schools. What you're giving up and what you're gaining.

I've been a licensed Realtor in Kenosha since 2018 and I specialize in helping Illinois families make this transition. This guide is what I wish I had before I made the move.
