Hello, my fellow Illinoisans. My name is Crystal Banks, and I am the Broker/Owner of Landstar Realty Group. I embarked on my real estate journey in 2010 and gained invaluable experience working for a reputable firm for eight years. In 2017, I decided to take the leap and open my own office, driven by my passion for the industry.
With over thirteen years of experience in the real estate market, I have honed my skills and expertise to assist a diverse range of clients. One of my areas of specialization is guiding first-time home buyers, sellers, and investors through the intricacies of the buying and selling processes, ensuring a successful outcome. I approach every client with the utmost dedication, treating them as if they were close friends. Delivering exceptional customer service is my top priority, and I emphasize clear and constant communication throughout every step of the transaction.
I find great joy in the fact that many clients have entrusted me with some of the most significant purchases or sales in their lives. It is a privilege to be part of such important milestones and to help individuals and families achieve their real estate goals.
Outside of work, I cherish spending quality time with my loved ones. Every Sunday, I gather with my siblings and their families for a delicious dinner, fostering strong family bonds. I also adore playing with my dog Leo, attending Cubs games, and enjoying live music venues. I am genuinely excited to have the opportunity to work with you, and I look forward to not only assisting you with your real estate needs but also forming a meaningful friendship along the way.

Crystal was amazing. She sold the property at the highest value in the area. Her knowledge and customer service skills are exceptional. Dealing with my ex wasn't an easy feat, he fought us every step of the way, and Crystal still managed to sell the house at the price she did.

Crystal was extremely supportive, insightful, and provided great perspective on the pros and cons of every location we visited.

Crystal went above and beyond to help me find my dream apartment as a resident relocating to Chicago. She was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and committed to helping me find a place I would be happy with in a very short amount of time.
