MEGAN MCCLEARY

Hl2023 10 022 Mccleary12

MEGAN MCCLEARY is at the top of her class for top-tier real estate services. Holding the spot as the number one leading real estate broker for Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Chicago in Hinsdale, her track record consistently breaks boundaries surpassing client expectations. Standing tall with the top one percent of brokers in the nation for over a decade, she’s developed an invaluable network of relationships and resources to leverage for her clients resulting in her groundbreaking, award-winning career.

What has been the most significant barrier in your career and how have you persevered? The biggest challenge in my career with residential real estate is finding and creating the balance of family and time. Homes are bought and sold every day of the year including weekends and holidays, and even while we’re on vacation. Having the right supports in place, and also having an understanding family, has helped my business thrive.

Who is your role model and why? My role model is my late husband, Tom McCleary. He always inspired me and continues to inspire me every single day. He had a successful career and built an incredible life for our family. He lived with integrity and truly loved living each day with no regrets. He has been my greatest champion for my business since day one and I think he believed in me before I believed in myself.

What are you most proud of doing? Last year, in my most challenging year personally, I was able to produce a recordbreaking year in my career in terms of sales volume. Additionally, I remained among the top one percent of agents, keeping my winning streak going for well over a decade.
