Don't Miss These Great North Shore Events This Weekend!


Summer on the North Shore is a beautiful time of year.  Whether you live in Winnetka, Northbrook, Glencoe, Highland Park, Deerfield or any of the other North Shore communities; each charming neighborhood has something unique to offer and gives you a way to experience the outdoors in a fun way.
As a real estate agent serving the North Shore community for a number of years, I always enjoy pointing out what’s taking place with various events, attractions and ways to interact within your city!  I know that buyers appreciate getting to know the area in which they’re looking for a home before deciding to buy because they see the value in the lifestyle the area has to offer.
It’s my goal to provide those who stop by my North Shore blog with the most current market news, home buying and selling tips, as well as what’s happening in these vibrant North Shore communities!
If you’re looking for something to do this weekend, or you’re searching for a North Shore home this weekend and would like to experience the North Shore in a different way; be sure to check out these events!
