Introduction
Why You Should Work With Me Buying or selling a home is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll make—and I don’t take that lightly. My business is built on one simple principle: help people get what they want, and everything else follows. What sets me apart? Responsiveness: I answer my phone, return texts quickly, and keep you informed every step of the way. You won’t be left wondering what’s happening. Experience + Insight: From first-time buyers to seasoned investors, I’ve helped clients navigate all types of real estate deals in Illinois and Florida. I know how to spot opportunities, avoid pitfalls, and negotiate strong outcomes. No Cookie-Cutter Approach: Every client and property is different. I take the time to understand your goals and build a strategy that fits you—not just the market. People-First Service: I care more about the relationship than the transaction. That means honest advice, steady support, and never pressuring you to make a move that doesn’t feel right. Whether you're buying your first home, upgrading, investing, or selling, I'm here to make sure it's the right move—for your goals, timeline, and peace of mind.

I had the pleasure of working with Carmen Salerno to find our home. He listened to our needs and concerns. He did not deter from our plan or goals. Surprisingly we found a home in less than 3 weeks and closed within a month! He is very knowledgeable and had many resources to help us on our journey. We trusted him to connect us with the right people from the pre-approval, home inspection, and our attorney. The closing went smoothly and ultimately was a great experience. We could not have asked for a better Realtor! Thank you Carmen for all that you did!

We contacted Carmen to help us find an apartment in Chicago for either rental or purchase. The purchase option didnt work out due to time constraints. Carmen however worked diligently in finding a rental unit. He took the time to visit a few places and sent us video tours of his own. He was always available by text or phone and patiently answered our queries. I felt that he had our best interest in mind and transparent in his dealings.
