The Way We Sell Homes
The real estate business has changed
significantly since our family founded Jim
Maloof/Realtor® in 1969. Yet the principals
we established nearly 40 years ago continue
to guide us today, We are in the business
of helping people. We are in the business
of making dreams come true. We are in the
business of building relationships. We are in
the business of improving your quality of life.
We are in the business for YOU! This IS the Jim
Maloof/Realtor® Way.
To our family, our agents, our brokers and all
of our support staff, these concepts are more
than just words. They are our MISSION. It is our
desire to build a strong relationship with every
client. We want to assist them with their needs
today and tomorrow. From that first house for
newlyweds, to a home for a growing family,
to down-sizing after the kids have moved, we
will be there. Because our team lives this level
of commitment, they have made Jim Maloof/
Realtor® more than just a company.
We ARE a part of the community.
As such, we are an active supporter of
various national, regional and local charity
events and not-for-profit organizations.
However, several causes and events do hold a
special place in our hearts such as the Susan
G. Komen Race for the Cure and our own St.
Jude Midwest Affiliate.
As you can see, we are not a company
composed of individuals, but a family
committed to making a difference in the lives
of our clients and our community. We intend to
exceed your expectations at every level. After
all, we are more than just a realtor, we are
YOUR family.
