Dina Lissner has been named to serve as sales manager of Baird & Warner’s new office in downtown Highland Park, according to a press release. 

Lissner returns to Baird & Warner, where she launched her career, after three years at Compass. In addition to Highland Park, the new office at 579 Central Ave. will provide service in Glencoe, Northbrook, Deerfield and more.  

“We’re very proud to welcome Dina back home to Baird & Warner as her market expertise and local knowledge will be a tremendous asset for our agents working with North Shore buyers and sellers,” Laura Ellis, president of residential sales and executive vice president of Baird & Warner, said in the press release. “Our former Highland Park managing broker, Lynn Kosner, put Baird & Warner on the map in a critical market — and we look forward to Dina continuing Lynn’s legacy of success in leading the office during this unprecedented growth period as the housing market continues to break records.”

Lissner said that that unlike other brokerages, Baird & Warner’s designated managing brokers live in the communities where they do business and that they are “solely focused on our office’s agents, while other firms’ managers buy and sell, competing directly with their own agents.”

“Our undivided management attention fuels the strength and camaraderie of all our agents — from newcomers to industry veterans — and brings tremendous value to their careers and day-to-day lives,” she added.
