“We would reccomend Steve Goodman to anyone looking to sell in today's market. He got our home sold during the slow holiday period when buyers also had several other options. His experience and knowledge definitely give him an edge as he guided us through the process. Thanks Steve!”

“Working with Meldina Dervisevic as my listing broker for the sale of 2422 B in Chicago was an outstanding experience. From the very beginning, Meldina provided clear guidance, strong market knowledge, and a professional approach that made the entire selling process smooth and stress-free. She created a strong marketing plan, brought in qualified buyers quickly, and kept me fully informed at every step. Her communication was excellent—prompt, consistent, and always focused on protecting my best interests as the seller. Meldina handled negotiations, inspections, and closing details with confidence and expertise, ensuring everything stayed on track.

“Cinny helped us sell and buy a condo at the same time and the whole experience was so smooth. From helping us list our place, going to showings with us, and answering all our concerns, I don’t know how she did it all but she was there for us. We were able to do both the selling and buying within 3 months which still amazes me how quick and easy she made this process. She was proactive in finding places and booking showings that work around our schedule. And what I really love is how well she understood what my partner and I were looking for in a home. We ended up buying the place she had suggested for us. Originally this place was not on our radar but she highly recommended us to check it out and we’re so glad we did. We’re so happy with new home and this could not have been done without Cinny!”

“Nancy Silwa is an experienced realtor who knows her profession. She knows, and in fact lives in the area, where I was selling my house. This was a bonus as she really had a handle on the market. She walked with me every step of the way so that I understood the process. I was selling a home I had lived in for 43 years. Nancy understood the emotional impact of this decision and gently helped me stay focused on the task at hand: sell the house. She found the perfect buyers. A young couple who will make my house their home. Knowing this made selling my home a little easier. I would and indeed have recommended Nancy to others. She is simply THE BEST!”

Learn more about what Russell has to offer.
Russell offers residents a welcoming, tight-knit community with convenient local services, ample green spaces, and family-friendly events that support a comfortable, active lifestyle.
Russell blends a rural, border-town feel with quick access to lakeshore recreation and everyday conveniences. Tucked between open fields and forest preserves in northern Lake County, this small community sits moments from Zion, Wadsworth, and the harbor amenities of Winthrop Harbor. Local history buffs love the hands-on exhibits at the Russell Military Museum, where vintage aircraft, tanks, and memorabilia tell powerful stories from the 20th century to today.
Outdoors, residents enjoy miles of wooded trails along the Des Plaines River and easy beach days at the protected dunes and shoreline of Illinois Beach State Park. Anglers, boaters, and birders find year-round options nearby, while cyclists appreciate quiet country roads and forest preserve paths. Dining, groceries, and services are close at hand in neighboring communities, and I‑94 and US‑41 streamline commutes across the North Shore and beyond.
Families are served by established public schools, with many students attending Zion Elementary School District 6 and the well-regarded Zion-Benton Township High School District 126. Community programs, youth sports, and park district offerings in surrounding towns add to the area’s approachable, small-community rhythm.
Whether you’re drawn by the museum’s military heritage, the lakefront, or the space to stretch out, Russell offers a relaxed base with big-time nature and regional connectivity. If you’re considering a move, Agent Pronto can match buyers and sellers with top local real estate agents who know Russell and the surrounding market.
