Manuel - Real Estate Agent

Despite having a great job in a luxury five-star hotel in the downtown area, Manuel Pineda could not help but feel like something was missing. It was the itch for a new adventure that led him to a career in real estate field.

Now a real estate professional with Coldwell Banker Realty, Manuel has been doing about 90 percent of his transactions in the local Chicago area neighborhoods and extending to the surrounding suburbs like Glenview , Winnetka , Wilmette , Northbrook , Norridge, Hardwood Heights, Skokie, Evanston, Highland Park. A member of the Chicago Association of Realtors and the National Association of Realtors, he holds a degree in Engineer science from wright College and follow a program that prepares professionals to serve high-net-worth individuals.

“We are in the business of selling lifestyles, not just houses,” its Manuel’s motivation.

“I genuinely love helping people and building relationships that come along with,” he added. “It is gratifying to see my clients happy that they bought or sold a home with me.

Manuel uses high-resolution pictures and professional video walk-throughs of properties on his website, on social media platforms and in advertisements. Still, he knows that old-school mailings, daily phone calls, and word-of-mouth contacts at social events never go out of style.

Lately, Manuel has been spending his free time remodeling and flipping personal investment properties, focusing his work on the local neighborhood he serves as an agent. Without a doubt, his proudest moment this year was helping a neighbor to sell a vacation home that no other real estate company would ever consider selling it. As it was in the far away suburb of Beardstown, Illinois. “He will go above and beyond to get the job done, as simple as that,” the neighbor says.
