Vera Purcell and Pat Purcell work as a team to find the home that fits both your lifestyle and financial plans. Always adaptable, they are happy to customize your search to fit your busy schedule. They can set up appointments based on your online search, pull properties for you based on their marketplace immersion, or a combination of search styles depending on your preferences and how you work best. Their extreme market knowledge coupled with their own experiences working and living on the North Shore make them the ideal fit for any relocating buyer that may be unfamiliar with the area. The two were raised in Chicagoland, and though they moved to California, they returned to the North Shore in 1993. They know what it is like to move a family across the country and all of the school, financial, and lifestyle decisions that come with such a decision. They help to facilitate any life transition you may be making, always remaining patient, helpful, and empathetic to your needs.
Pat has an MBA and has been the owner of small businesses, a broker in commercial real estate and has worked on several development projects. Vera was an educator and also a bereavement counselor who created and managed a program at a major medical center. Their combined corporate and sales training has taught them that effective pricing and aggressive marketing is crucial to sell your home. In their listing presentation, they give the straight-forward facts about the market, and honesty in the pricing and marketing of your home. Their sales success speaks for itself, and they look forward to working with you as a team to accomplish the goal of selling your home.
With four children and busy careers, Pat and Vera became masters of multi-tasking. They love to visit their now grown independent and successful children. They also love playing tennis, golf, and enjoying the beautiful North Shore community. They are actively involved in community events and organizations. Vera sits on the Board of Directors for the Boys & Girls Club of Lake County and has served as trustee for the Lake Forest Library, on the United Way Board, former President of the Women’s Board of Catholic Charities, treasurer of Friends of Ragdale, and was a recipient of the I-Care award for Lake County. Pat is involved in The Ponds Association and the United Way board.
