"Your home is that special place where you share the most intimate moments with your family and friends. Choose it carefully."
Real Estate is the largest single investment for most individuals and families. Select a real estate consultant who can be a trusted, professional advisor. Peter is a highly regarded professional who has excelled at helping his clients evaluate their needs and options, and ultimately, to select that special place called home.
Peter heads up Team Tortorello, an impressive group of talented Realtors. Over the last four years, he has personally sold nearly $125 million representing sellers, buyers, and investors. His expertise includes condominiums, town homes, single-family residences, and commercial spaces. His highly creative marketing, expert facilitation, and skillful negotiation have enabled him to sell listings quickly. These talents are drawn from his previous 25-year career in marketing, sales, and sales management with leading companies such as Oracle and Xerox.
In 2006, Peter, a top producer in the Gold Coast Office, was recognized by his fellow agents as the recipient of the “Norma Strey Koenig Award,” an acknowledgement for his contributions in creating a positive, professional and congenial environment in the support of his fellow realtors. His unique, effective approach to marketing properties was featured in an article in the Metro Chicago Real Estate Magazine. He is one of the elite members of “Who’s Who In Real Estate.” For the last three years, Peter has sold more properties than any real estate professional in the Koenig & Strey Gold Coast Office.
2007 and 2008 have been challenging years in the Real Estate industry. Peter has demonstrated that excellent marketing, strong sales skills, focus, and a passion for his clients deliver results. Last year Peter has sold closed over 70 transactions, leading the office in units sold. This year he again is in the front position in units listed and units sold. In the second quarter alone, he adds a third accomplishment, the highest closed revenue of any agent in Koenig & Strey’s Gold Coast Office. The true value of his impressive performance is best measured by his clients who have given perfect “5 of 5” ratings on Client Satisfaction Surveys and Agent Evaluations.
When working with buyers, Peter is keenly focused on the individual and his or her needs. Whether is it working with executives relocating to Chicago, or first and second time buyers, his financial guidance and real estate savvy are valued by his clients. He is uniquely capable of expertly facilitating each step of the transaction— contract negotiation, financing, legal reviews and closing. He is flexible, responsive, and results-oriented —a true client advocate. He has high energy, sincerely enjoys working with clients and fellow professionals, and is committed to excellence and integrity. For him, Real Estate is the marriage of personal passion and extraordinary professional skill.
Peter holds a BSC from DePaul University in Marketing and an MBA from Northern Illinois University. He is a Chicago native, and a vigorous supporter of HRC, Lambda Legal, The Center on Halsted, Howard Brown Health Center, and Y-Me.
