Brittany Simon is a third-generation real estate broker, following in the footsteps of her mom, grandmother and stepfather. “I’m truly passionate about real estate and cannot imagine doing anything else,” says Simon, a broker with Compass.

She brings 10 years of experience to every transaction and extensive knowledge of what makes each neighborhood special. She grew up in the western suburbs and is raising a family there — she and her husband are expecting their second child in the fall. She has also lived in different parts of the city and likes to share her parking tricks, favorite restaurants, entertainment venues, parks and walking trails with clients.

Whether a client is laid back or buttoned up and business like, Simon adopts the communication style they prefer. Yet, she stays true to herself, is easy to talk to and makes sure all the bases are covered.

A lioness when she needs to be, she does not get pushed around in deals. “I’m extremely confident in my knowledge of contracts and strategies to compose a winning offer or secure a great deal for my sellers, usually in record time,” she says. “I’m genuinely excited for my clients and they can feel my enthusiasm for helping them.”

A positive person, she keeps the process moving forward despite setbacks, believing, “When there’s a will, there’s definitely a way.” Most years, she has exceeded the previous year’s sales and 2021 is no exception. At the halfway point, she already surpassed 2020 sales. In the end, Simon is happiest seeing a buyer win a multiple bid situation or presenting a seller with multiple offers over asking price.

Fond of the outdoors, Simon enjoys daily walks with her Goldendoodle, Snoopy, spending time on her boat with family and friends and keeping up with her 1-and-a-half-year-old daughter. In addition to real estate, she is passionate about investing, interior design and rehabbing properties.
