Rita Vera

My first real estate mentor told me, “Always put people first and the rest will take care of itself.” Eighteen years later, I still live by that principle. I built REimagine Chicago Realty to create a place where clients feel truly cared for and understood- not sold to.

I’ve spent my career helping people navigate some of the biggest decisions of their lives, and I take pride in making those experiences smoother, smarter, and more human. My approach is simple: be honest, stay knowledgeable, and always put people first. By educating my clients, I empower them to make the best decisions for themselves.

My real estate experience spans helping both sellers and buyers, from first-time homeowners to seasoned investors. In addition to residential sales, I manage rental investment properties for many clients and hold a separate license in Condo Association Management. Combined with my extensive background in construction, this gives me a unique perspective when evaluating homes, renovations, and investment potential. This range of experience allows me to see the full picture of property ownership and provide well-rounded guidance at every stage.

When I’m not helping clients, I enjoy mentoring aspiring real estate professionals and sharing the knowledge I’ve gained over nearly two decades in the industry. I believe younger and older generations of agents have much to learn from each other. I also spend a lot of time dancing, which keeps me healthy and energized, and I love spending quality time with my family, which keeps me grounded.
