Co-founders of Chicago-based real estate firm @properties Thaddeus Wong and Michael Golden have announced the addition of their new office in Highland Park in an issued press release.

The new office, located at 607 Central Avenue, will serve Highland Park, Fort Sheridan, Highwood, Deerfield, Riverwoods, Glencoe and neighboring communities. “The company plans to house approximately 65 to 75 agents in the office within the next 12 months,” according to the press release.

The brokerage has already made a strong presence in the Highland Park community, currently billed as the No. 2 real estate firm in the area, owning 19.69 percent market share, year-to-date.

Wong explained that he and his team plans on boosting their marketing, advertising, technology and client communications for their new office.

“A luxury market like Highland Park needs that extra level of service,” he said.

An office in Highland Park has long been in the works for the brokerage, according to Golden, who explained that there were many in the area who were already familiar with the @properties brand.

“There are many homeowners in Highland Park who are familiar with @properties from the city, and there are other clients in the area who are discovering us for the first time,” said Golden. “We’re looking forward to making a positive impact on Highland Park real estate and the greater community.”
