About Lisa

Client-focused, results-driven broker Lisa Cheponis has set records in the real estate industry and has been featured in The Wall Street Journal as one of the top-producing agents in the nation. Among other honors and accolades, Lisa has won multiple coveted Platinum Sales Awards, the prestigious Gold Coast Prism Award, the Prudential Chairman’s Circle Gold Award, and more, all for high sales volume. “But high sales volume is not what matters most to me,” says Lisa. “Each individua... l client matters above all else.” Indeed, when it comes to achieving the results you want, Lisa defines commitment to your cause. As she says, “I go to bed at night thinking about my client’s goals and I wake up in the morning thinking about them. I cannot stop until we achieve what we set out to do.” Lisa is one of fewer than 5% of Realtors® nationwide to have earned the Certified Negotiation Expert designation, and her first career in the corporate world involved high-level negotiation skills for the demanding blue-chip client Procter & Gamble. Lisa simply loves negotiating, especially on her client’s behalf. Throughout her career, she has continually honed her negotiation skills, whether in a class taught by FBI Hostage Negotiator Christopher Voss, or in a Kellogg Graduate School of Management course from her alma mater Northwestern University. A fan of Stephen Covey, Lisa believes in lifelong learning and “sharpening the saw,” so that she can meet your needs and exceed your expectations. Years ago, Lisa identified the mobility of jobs as a game-changer in residential real estate. Her perspective on any real estate market is local, national, and global— with clients and strong connections across the nation and around the world. This uncommon perspective, coupled with her impressive connections, make Lisa uniquely qualified to market your home both to attractive buyers and to top agents everywhere. Whether helping a buyer or seller with a more modest purchase or sale, or helping a wealthy client with a significant multi-million-dollar transaction, Lisa treats each client and each transaction with a high level of service, focus, and care. “Every single client and every single transaction matters deeply to me,” says Lisa. “I agree wholeheartedly with the philosophy that luxury is not necessarily defined by price point, but always by the level of service, and by the experience. What I want for each client is nothing but the best.” Real estate markets are dynamic, and Lisa has worked through it all. Licensed for over 20 years, Lisa has navigated economic downturns, Sellers’ markets, Buyers’ markets, slow markets, and markets that are highly competitive and extraordinarily fast. In every circumstance, Lisa loves helping her clients win the day, ahead of all the rest. Each of Lisa’s clients soon sees that Lisa’s true passion is helping them get what matters most to them.
