 Ted Pickus

Imagine walking into a home that feels right—the layout, the light, the neighborhood—and knowing, without hesitation, that you are making a sound investment. That confidence does not happen by accident. It happens when you have the right expert walking beside you. The Ted Pickus Team brings years of experience navigating the fast-moving, deeply local real estate market on Chicago's North Shore paired with something truly unique: Ted's background in construction. He does not just see a home's surface. He understands its bones, its value, and its potential in ways most agents simply cannot. For buyers, that means smarter decisions. For sellers, that means stronger results. Either way, it means you win.

About Me:

Ted Pickus | Broker | 847.417.0520

Ted Pickus has been immersed in residential construction since childhood, working for his father's company from the age of ten. With over 25 years of hands-on experience in building and development, he has a sharp eye for quality and craftsmanship. His deep understanding of how homes are built helps clients make confident, informed decisions—whether evaluating a property's potential or preparing one for market.

As a highly successful agent on the North Shore, Ted is known for his strong work ethic, deep market knowledge, and unwavering dedication to his clients. He has built a thriving real estate career by combining expert-level insight with a genuinely caring approach—earning the respect of clients, colleagues, and the broader community. Ted's reputation is built not only on results, but on relationships: he's the kind of person people trust, rely on, and genuinely enjoy working with.

A longtime Highland Park resident, Ted has lived on the North Shore for over 30 years, raised four children through the local school system, and serves on the Highland Park Affordable Housing Commission. He's deeply connected to the community and committed to helping his neighbors thrive. Guided by the values of caring, integrity, and tenacity, Ted brings skilled negotiation, thoughtful follow-through, and strategic marketing—backed by @properties Christie's International Real Estate—to every transaction.
