WHAT WE DO

Advisory that begins where brokerage ends.

Domaine operates across every dimension of real estate — from initial acquisition strategy to interior repositioning. Each engagement is built around a single client's objectives, not a standardized service menu.

Residential Acquisition & Representation

Chicago's finest addresses rarely reach public listings. We provide direct access to the properties that matter — and the counsel to acquire them with clarity, confidence, and complete discretion.

Includes

Neighborhood and asset analysis across Gold Coast, Lincoln Park, Streeterville, and beyond

Off-market sourcing through our private network of owners and developers

Offer strategy, negotiation, and contract representation

Full transaction management through close

Optional: post-acquisition design advisory with Studio Grazia

Commercial Leasing & Acquisition

Office, retail, hospitality, and mixed-use. We represent tenants and buyers who require more than square footage — who understand that the right address is an extension of their brand.

Includes

Site selection and market positioning across Chicago's key commercial corridors

Lease negotiation, term structuring, and landlord representation

Acquisition underwriting and investment analysis

Space planning coordination and fit-out advisory

Acquisition sequencing aligned to financial and lifestyle goals

Disposition strategy and timing counsel

Access to off-market opportunities on a priority basis

Coordination with legal, tax, and wealth management advisors

Design & Asset Repositioning

In direct partnership with Studio Grazia — Chicago's design and lifestyle advisory studio — we offer clients a seamless path from acquisition to inhabitation. Properties are not just purchased. They are considered.

Includes

Interior design and space planning for residential acquisitions

Pre-sale staging and visual repositioning to maximize asset value

Material, finish, and furnishing selection

Organization, lifestyle direction, and move-in coordination

Off-Market Access

A significant share of Chicago's most compelling properties never appear on the MLS. Access to these opportunities depends entirely on relationships — relationships we have spent years building with owners, developers, estates, and institutions.

HOW WE WORK

Every engagement follows the same discipline.

We do not take on volume. We take on clients whose goals align with our capabilities — and we see each engagement through to a result that reflects well on everyone involved.

  • Initial Consultation

    A private conversation to understand your objectives, timeline, parameters, and the level of service most appropriate to your situation.

  • Engagement Proposal

    A tailored scope of work outlining our approach, deliverables, and terms. No standardized packages. Each proposal is written for one client.

  • Active Advisory

    We begin work. Sourcing, strategy, negotiation, coordination — whatever the engagement requires, with full transparency throughout.

  • Close & Beyond

    Transactions close. Relationships continue. Most Domaine clients return for subsequent engagements — and refer the people they trust most.
