Chicago Northside Real Estate
✦ Woman-Owned BusinessThere are thousands of real estate agents but not every agent has the same skills.
Meet Mary Nack
My commitment is to listen and truly understand what is most important to you. I am your advocate throughout your entire real estate transaction. I help you to understand the strategies and investment implications of the decisions you make.
Licensed as an agent in 1981, I have owned The M Nack Team since 1997, representing more than 1,000 clients on Chicago's Northside. Having an experienced guide is invaluable. I have personally bought, sold and invested in many real estate deals myself. I will steer you away from the many potholes lurking in the road ahead.
I am committed to building life-long relationships with my clients. As a client you represent a lifetime of transactions and referrals. Some of my clients have been with me for over 30 years! My #1 core value is “do the right thing!”
I have lived and worked my entire adult life in Chicago's Northside communities. That isn't a marketing line — it's why I know where the school boundaries fall, where the good hardware store is, and which quiet listing is about to hit the market.

"We have worked with Mary on buying and selling multiple houses over the years, and she has been amazing in all ways. She is easy to talk to, punctual, quick to respond to emails and phone calls, and just a really nice down to earth person. She knows the market well and is always willing to listen. I would highly recommend working with Mary!"

"Mary is the consummate real estate professional. Having worked with her on multiple transactions — both from the buyer's side and the seller's side — I can say categorically that you want Mary working with you. Smart, kind, ethical, organized, responsive… and very tough when she needs to be. I recommend Mary without reservation."
— John N. · Buyer & Seller
"I would highly recommend Mary Nack for any real estate issues. I had an incredibly difficult situation that most realtors would not want to deal with but Mary took it as a challenge. She always returned my calls and emails promptly and was informative and positive. Call Mary — you will be happy. I am."
