Married since 1982, Mark and Maxine Goldberg are a power couple and Founding Advisors of the Engel & Völkers Chicago North Shore office. As a couple, their career paths came together organically. The Max Group started at Coldwell Banker until moving to Engel & Völkers in November 2019. Mark and Maxine often say, “We are not only in the house business, we are in the relationship business.”

2020 was a success due to? A combination of renewed interest in living on the North Shore and the strong loyalty of our long-term client base and their referrals.

What sets you apart from your competition? We build relationships through individualized service. Our client base is like a family tree; forever growing new branches.

Best thing about 2020 was? Being able to maintain a positive outlook for our clients, as well as in our own home and family.

What is the first thing you tell your clients? We are here to be advisors in all aspects of buying or selling your home. We form a relationship that continues into the future, well after the transaction has closed.

Best advice ever given to you? To deliver a personalized approach to each client.

Best advice you’ve given? This may sound trite, but a seller’s first offer is very often their best.

Favorite mantra? Every home is a mansion.

Most looking forward to in 2021? To see if the migration from the city to the suburbs continues and perhaps accelerates.
