POWERFUL PAIR

By Kemmie Ryan
With nearly 20 years of experience in the real estate business between them, ANNIE and MADDIE FLANAGAN, brokers with The Flanagan Group and @properties Christie’s International Real Estate, know the ins and outs of the Chicago and North Shore real estate markets. The duo has created a highly personalized, full-service boutique experience where their clients’ specific needs and interests are at the heart of everything they do— all while paying attention to every detail.
What is your business style?
We believe in the importance of relationships and having open communication. That goes for communication with clients and within our team—it creates trust for a healthy working relationship. We always lead with integrity and honesty, even when having difficult or uncomfortable conversations.
Who is your role model?
Annie: We have two women in our family who excelled in real estate and inspire us. My mom was in the real estate business for over 40 years, and my mother-in-law, also Maddie’s grandmother, worked in real estate for many years. They were both successful women in business who paved the way for us by showing hard work, dedication, and balance to both their careers and families.
What is your best networking advice?
Get involved with your community—in schools and anything near and dear to your heart. Volunteer, be social, and don’t pass up a new opportunity to help and meet new people in new places!
What is your fashion style?
We laugh about how we are always matching in some way, whether it be a similar print on a dress or top, or white jeans in the summer. We have similar styles and love design, clothes, and fashion and have fun with our work attire.
