Lisa Finks

Compass

Lisa Finks is a licensed attorney and a Compass real estate broker serving buyers and sellers throughout Chicago’s North Shore. Her approach combines detailed market analysis, negotiation experience and practical guidance, and her legal training shapes how she evaluates contracts, contingencies and risk.

When representing real estate clients, Lisa acts solely as their real estate broker—not as their attorney—and does not provide legal advice.

Lourdes Arencibia

Compass

Lourdes Arencibia has called Wilmette home since 1987. Before becoming a residential broker, she spent 12 years in mortgage brokerage and 12 years managing a family-owned real estate portfolio, and she has renovated and flipped properties herself.

She helps buyers and sellers look beyond the obvious: what a home is worth, what it may need and what is better left alone.

Carolyn Duris

Compass

Carolyn Duris lives in Winnetka and brings a background in marketing and sales built in New York, San Francisco and Chicago.

She applies that perspective to how a home is positioned and presented for sale, and to helping buyers weigh their options across the North Shore.

Independent representation

The agent a client engages remains that client’s representative from the first conversation to the closing.

Shared perspective

They exchange local knowledge, market context and ideas when doing so adds something useful for a client.
