Meet The Marla Schneider Team Experts in Residential Real Estate Chicago's North Shore and North Suburbs  My name is Marla Schneider, a resident of the North Shore for over 30 years and a licensed professional Realtor for over twenty-three years. I am the rainmaker and founder of The Marla Schneider Team, Coldwell Banker’s Top Producing Real Estate Sales Team on Chicago’s North Shore and North Suburbs. This may appear to be a bold statement to make, but the facts speak for themselves. I have been a Top Producer in the Coldwell Banker Glenview office fifteen years in succession, top listing agent, historical volume record setter, member of The Chairman’s Circle, The President’s Circle, and The President’s Premier Club. Some highlights of my career: Over $685,000,000 of real estate sales volume 67 Sales worth over $31,000,000 in 2012 year to date 2011 - Over $38,000,000 in sales and 67 Transactions 2010 - Over $34,000,000 in sales and 88 Transactions 2009 - Over $30,000,000 in sales and 59 Transactions 2008 - Over $40,000,000 in sales and 85 Transactions 2007 - Over $45,000,000 in sales and 73 Transactions 2006 - Over $59,000,000 in sales and 74 Transactions 2005 - Over $68,000,000 in sales and 89 Transactions My success has not been by accident or good fortune. I am a tireless worker who measures success not in dollars earned, but rather in respect from my clients and colleagues. It is essential for me to know that my clients are happy and that home buying or selling can actually be a pleasant experience. I understand that a person’s home is one of their most prized possessions and I feel fortunate to be able to represent that concept to buyers and sellers alike. I love my profession and feel quite fortunate to have found what I consider to be my niche in life. As you can see, the numbers speak for themselves. Over the years, as my business grew, I realized the only way to properly service my clientele was to build a team. You may not realize, a realtor needs to be the “Jack of all Trades” to be successful in this business. I cannot possibly be out showing homes to buyers, while marketing my sellers listings, or negotiating contracts, all at the same time. The responsibilities of a realtor goes on and on. I have expanded my ability to assist buyers and sellers by putting in place a team that specializes in each aspect of the business. Meet my team of specialist: Matthew Schneider, Buyers Broker and Listing Specialist – Matthew has grown up in the real estate business. Licensed since his sophomore year in college, he is very experienced in all aspects of the business: buying, selling, distressed property, marketing. With a bachelors degree in finance, Matthew has utilized his financial background to assist clients with their most important investment, buying or selling a home. Considering his financial background and his knowledge of technology, he is an asset to the team and our clients. In order to further his quest for success in the industry, he is in the process of completing a Masters Degree in Real Estate at DePaul University. Faith Gleeson, Director of Client Services – A licensed realtor with over 17 years of marketing experience, Faith has the skills needed to make your move a smooth experience. She is available in the office to assist with every aspect of your transaction.

Financing Your Home >Mortgage Myths
Nationwide surveys indicate that a large number of potential home buyers count themselves out of the market because of widely-held myths about home financing.
Some of the most prevalent myths include: 1) home buyers need large down payments (more than is actually the case); 2) the loan process works against people under age 35; 3) owning a home is more expensive than renting; and 4) minorities have no chance of getting a mortgage.
The surveys found that many people view the mortgage process as "difficult, stressful, and incomprehensible." Many qualified first-time buyers are unaware of special programs designed to make home ownership affordable to them. The home loan industry is always looking for new ways to dispel these myths because lenders want more business, not less. The alternatives to traditional 20% down, thirty-year fixed mortgages are astonishing. Mortgage brokers are experienced in explaining today's financing and debunking the myths.
