Jim Lumsden is a licensed real estate broker with more than 30 years experience in Chicago's north and northwest suburbs and Lake County. Although his practice has taken him throughout the Chicago metropolitan area, he focuses most of his attention on Lake Zurich and surrounding communities. He has in-depth knowledge of communities within a radius of 15 miles of that area.

Unlike many Realtors, Jim is not restricted to residential properties. He has extensive experience dealing with apartment buildings and other investment properties, and has handled a number of industrial, commercial and office properties as well. He maintains membership registrations on commercial databases so that he can multiple list commercial properties for lease or sale. He also has access to those commercial listing services so that virtually all appropriate properties can located for commercial clients.

For those people seeking residential properties, Jim has an extraordinary track record of correctly accessing client needs and locating the right properties to meet those needs. Quite often, those properties have attributes that do not readily appear in standard searches of the MLS.

For those who want to sell their property, Jim carefully assesses the property's current value, taking into account other properties in the same geographical area and in the same general price range. Then he works with clients to maximize the value perception of the property, counseling them on steps to show the property at its best. He also works to market the property for the fastest possible sale at the best possible price.

Jim's background includes strong marketing experience, and in-depth knowledge about construction products, practices and techniques. He brings these special advantages to bear on all real estate consultations.

Active in the community, Jim is past president of the Lake Zurich Lions Club, past commander of American Legion Post 964, life member of VFW Post 11020, and a participant in many other church, charity and community activities.
