Calling Ali Lerner a full-service real estate agent doesn’t quite do her justice. Known for her tireless dedication, strategic insight and unwavering commitment to clients, Lerner consistently delivers a level of service that exceeds expectations. Whether working with first-time buyers, seasoned investors or sellers preparing for their next chapter, she’s laser-focused on understanding and achieving each client’s unique goals.

Lerner’s competitive advantage lies in her strong relationships with many of the North Shore’s most-respected agents. Her knack for uncovering off-market opportunities — often before they hit the MLS or private networks — gives clients a distinct edge, especially in low-inventory, high-demand markets.

With a talent for interior design and a passion for DIY, she brings creativity to every transaction — helping clients visualize potential and maximize value. A lifelong North Shore resident, she grew up in Northbrook, spent nearly a decade in Deerfield and now calls Northbrook home once again. She’s a proud mother to a 13-year-old daughter and 9-year-old son, both active in local sports and community programs. Her deep roots and connections offer clients an insider’s perspective on neighborhoods, schools and market dynamics.

Her excellence hasn’t gone unnoticed. She’s a six-time recipient of the prestigious Five Star Professional Award and has been featured in multiple media outlets, including recognition as a Sheridan Road Magazine Power Woman in 2022–2023.

“My work is driven by my clients’ happiness, not the paycheck,” she says. “I feel genuinely connected to every client, and being part of such a meaningful milestone is a privilege I never take for granted.”

When not guiding clients, you’ll find Ali competing on the pickleball court, cheering from the sidelines at her kids’ games, or recharging with a barre class. She’s always on the move—and brings that same energy and passion to everything she does.
