Compass broker Mike McCurry has not only lived in the Hinsdale and Clarendon Hills communities since 1990, but he has also helped others successfully do the same. Mike has helped more than 1,700 local families and businesses make meaningful moves as a full-time Realtor® for 33 years. Consistently ranked in the top 1 percent of Realtors®, Mike is proud that 74 percent of his buyers and sellers are repeat clients or referrals from past clients. Mike believes that people are at the heart of every transaction and makes it his priority to get to know his clients and build a real relationship, not just finish a transaction.
What do you like most about real estate?
My favorite aspect of the real estate business is being in the front row, witnessing, and oftentimes participating in the cycle of family life. As families with young children move in, sellers that have experienced all that our communities have to offer move to another season. As a coach, a dad, and a business leader, I get to help guide and be a part of that cycle.
How do you differentiate yourself from the competition?
I wake up every morning with a spark in my step feeling like I have the best job in the world. There have been many changes throughout my industry like computers, faxes (now gone), voicemail, cellphones, internet, and now artificial intelligence (AI). My attitude has been to embrace the changes and implement them when they help make the process easier for our clients.
Most looking forward to in 2023?
We have many buyer clients who are sitting on the sidelines waiting for properties to come to market. I’m looking forward to getting back to more of a balanced market where there is more inventory to help buyers purchase in our community.
