About Bree Ballard

A Little Bit About Bree:

Hi everyone, I am so glad that you have found yourself on my page. I just wanted to take a couple of minutes to give you some background on myself, especially if you have never met me before! I am originally from the outskirts of Chicago, IL and I loved growing up there. I am the oldest of 4, two of my siblings still live out in IL, and one is here near me. When I was 15 I moved to the area with my mom and siblings, and when I was just 18 years old I (re)met my husband, who I have dedicated myself to for the past 11 years. Sean and I have navigated through life together, got married in 2016, and are still going strong. I have two beautiful little boys at home. Our youngest has autism, and has been quite the journey for the three of us. Our oldest loves robotics, science, math and so much more. Now you may be asking why all of this is relevant to real estate, or my business in general. The story of my life is what brought me to real estate, all of the things I have been through or worked on have put me on a path to be the best real estate broker I can be. I started real estate with an open mind and a goal of being successful in life once I had turned 30, and I made this goal when I was just 26 years old. Since then I have worked very hard to set things up for the future. I take every learning opportunity and every obstacle as a learning device to get me to that goal of being successful. I haven't quite defined my version of success yet, or what I had hoped that would look like once I get there, but I guess I will figure it out once I arrive. I'm well on my way! A couple of my interests are art (which I attended college for starting at 16), the autism community, and the quirks of my youngest, people, as in my friends and family are always a priority and I love getting to know someone, of course real estate and so much more! I look forward to the future where you and I get to know each other, but once again thank you for visiting my page and getting to know me!
