KWILL Real Estate

Real estate advisors who own and operate

KWILL Real Estate is built by people who manage their own properties: we know what it takes to find the right space, close the deal, and make the asset perform. Our team provides transaction, advisory, and asset management services across Chicago's industrial corridors.

What we do

Transaction Management

Buy-side and sell-side execution for industrial, office, and retail properties. We handle sourcing, negotiation, and closing.

Asset Management

Property performance, tenant relations, and operational oversight. We manage assets like they're our own, because some of them are.

Valuation & Advisory

Market analysis and property valuations based on real transactions, not just comps. We know what buildings actually trade for.

Portfolio Optimization

Facility analysis against your business needs. We find the gaps, inefficiencies, and opportunities in your real estate footprint.

Tenant & landlord representation

We track Chicago's submarkets daily. Our team surfaces off-market opportunities before they hit listings and represents both tenants and landlords in transactions across industrial, office, and retail.

For Tenants

Site selection, lease negotiation, and access to off-market inventory

For Landlords

Tenant sourcing, lease-up strategy, and asset repositioning

Market Intelligence

Real-time insights from a team that's in the market every day

We manage properties for institutional owners, family offices, and our own portfolio. Our approach is hands-on: we know the tenants, track the maintenance, and focus on what actually drives returns.

Property performance tracking, tenant relations, and operational reporting

Lease Administration

Renewals, rent collections, and tenant coordination

Industries we know

We focus on sectors where we have real experience: manufacturing, logistics, food and beverage, healthcare, and more. We understand the building requirements, the regulations, and what actually matters for operations.
