With nine years of experience and a reputation for quick thinking and fierce client advocacy, Patrick Shino leads The Shino Group at Fulton Grace Realty with energy, empathy and sharp strategy. A lifelong Chicagoland resident, Shino has lived everywhere from Glenview and Lincolnwood to Ukrainian Village and Wicker Park. This lived experience fuels his knowledge of markets across Chicago, the western suburbs and the North Shore — making him a go-to expert for first-time buyers, seasoned investors and luxury clients.

Shino began his career in real estate after a career in logistics, which required him to manage hundreds of transactions monthly. His shift to real estate allowed him to focus on client service and market insight. Drawing on his background in philosophy and ethics, he brings calm analysis and critical thinking to negotiations and problem-solving. His business style is easygoing and data-driven, and he always helps clients feel informed and supported. Clients consistently describe him as ultra-responsive, thoughtful and easy to work with — until someone tries to take advantage of his clients, at which point he becomes “a shark in the water,” as he puts it.

Now the sole owner of The Shino Group, Shino leads a 14-agent team and is proud that his firm is 100% referral-based. His client-first approach has earned him the Chicago Association of Realtors’ Top Producer Award every year from 2019 to 2024. His team recently surpassed $150 million in sales and $4 million in rental volume over three years.

Outside of real estate, Shino is an avid pickleball player and community advocate. Whether he’s closing a deal or rallying on the court, he applies the same passion and precision that have made him a trusted advisor throughout Chicagoland.
