Alexa Schwab

Alex moved to the Fox Valley in 2006. She was impressed with the number of local restaurants shops and the beautiful parks, libraries, and festivals. She grew to love the area's unique charm and sense of community.

For several years, she worked as a reporter for the Chicago Tribune, writing about everything in the Fox Valley. She wrote about historic preservation meetings to new business openings. When she decided to leave journalism, real estate was a natural fit. She uses her journalism skills every day, whether it is helping to interview a family about what they are looking for in a new home or wading through tax records.

Since becoming a full-time Realtor in 2015, Alexa has helped dozens of families with their home goals. Her business philosophy is simple – be genuine, be honest and treat each client the way she would want my friends and family to be treated.

Along the way, she has enjoyed making her own home in the Fox Valley and is dedicated to contributing to its strong sense of community and volunteerism. She is a member of the city of Geneva's Strategic Plan Advisory Committee, the Geneva Library Foundation board, the League of Women Voters of Central Kane County, and the Williamsburg Elementary PTO.
