Did You Know Baird & Warner Gives You Unbeatable Access to a Full-Time Management Team?

Most real estate offices will be led by a Managing Broker. But very few give agents unparalleled access to a full-time management team with more than 50 years of combined experience in Chicago real estate, whose sole focus is on accelerating your success at every step of the way.

That’s exactly what agents at every stage of their careers experience at Baird & Warner – LIncoln Park.

At every level, our brokerage’s leadership is made up of people who truly understand what agents need to be successful, and who are truly committed to providing the very best tools, resources, training, and support to make it happen — especially when it comes to pivoting and meeting unexpected challenges head on.

Lincoln Park Agent Spotlight: Millie Rosenbloom

Millie Rosenbloom has had a long and celebrated career in Chicago real estate — and her unique perspective on the industry started at a young age.

Growing up, Millie says, her mom and dad used to buy properties to fix up and sell. She moved a lot during grade school, while gaining a lifelong understanding and appreciation for architecture, building homes, and the many kinds of work involved in real estate along the way.

Once she decided to start down this career path, Millie initially had something of a turbulent beginning.

“When I first started, I interviewed with Habitat. And they did not hire me because I didn’t have any experience. So I found a small little firm and went to work there, and six months later they closed their doors, unfortunately,” she says. “So I wound up going back to Habitat.”

This time, Millie interviewed and got hired. She then spent 15 years working her way up the ladder, eventually becoming part owner of the company. Over this span, she grew the brokerage division from 15 agents to 120, before selling it to Baird & Warner in December of 2007.

“And I’ve been here ever since!” Millie says.

Lincoln Park Agent Spotlight: John Lyons

John Lyons is known as one of Chicago’s most trusted real estate agents. As a broker, he is passionate about always continuing to learn and find new ways to improve his business and provide a better experience for his clients. And for John, the support he gets from Baird & Warner Lincoln Park helps him to do all that and more.

John got started in real estate after losing a corporate sales job, which forced him to think differently about his career options.

“That failure made me realize what I didn’t like, and pushed me towards entrepreneurship,” John says. “I was just burnt out and tired, and I realized I didn’t want to work for anybody anymore, particularly a middle manager.”
