When you work with Andrew Peterson, dry humor and sarcasm are just a part of the deal. You won’t miss him on the street—as a man with bright red hair and a beard to match, Peterson stands out from the crowd. But it’s his experience, personality and commitment to clients that really set him apart from his peers in the Chicago real estate community.

“I grew up as a ‘Law & Order’ kid and had always planned to go to law school,” Peterson says. After college, he was hired as a paralegal for a real estate attorney and was introduced to the real estate field. After seeing the real estate industry from the legal side, Peterson now brings a unique perspective to his clients that most of his competitors can’t provide.

As a broker, Peterson’s clientele includes firs-time homebuyers, city dwellers moving to the suburbs, investors and corporate relocations. His educational business style, combined with a dash of quick wit, make him a Realtor who can really connect with his clients and create the best outcomes for them.

Peterson’s clients always appreciate his knack for making the process easy. “It’s a compliment I love because I pride myself on being a consultant first and salesperson second,” he says. “I know that if my clients are educated properly, it will make the process seamless.”

Aside from a record year in production, Peterson is most proud of taking a leading role at Keller Williams’ Young Professionals group. Giving back and collaborating with a diverse group of individuals has elevated his game to new levels.
