Jeff Scharringhausen - Baird & Warner Real Estate Agent
Going Above and Beyond To Find Your Next Home

As a broker with Baird & Warner here in Arlington Heights, I bring a lifetime of connection to the Northwest Suburbs. I was born and raised in Rolling Meadows, a proud graduate of Rolling Meadows High School, and my family name has been a part of this community for many years. Throughout my life, I've always found myself in roles where I could help people, especially during challenging times. Before transitioning to real estate with Baird & Warner, I dedicated 25 years to Northwest Community Hospital. Just like in my work at the hospital, being a realtor allows me to guide individuals and families through significant life events. Whether it's finding their dream home or navigating the complexities of selling a property, I'm there to offer support and expertise. My deep roots in the Northwest Suburbs give me a unique understanding of the local market, and I'm committed to providing my clients with the personalized service and care they deserve.
"It is my great pleasure to recommend Jeff as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home. I was looking for a place to rent after selling my house and Jeff took a diligent notes regarding my needs as well as my budgetary limitations. He used his technologically skills to quickly find a variety of homes for rent in the area I desired. He is a master with contract negotiations. He came up with a deal that was good for me and the landlord. I found Jeff a very attentive agent. He returned all my phone calls and emails instantly. I never felt neglected or unimportant. I’m pleased to recommend Jeff to anyone looking for buy, sell or rent a home. He is the best in business and if I ever need to move again he will be my first choice in real estate agents. Thank you Jeff!" - Halina
