Chicago real estate has been my world for over 26 years, and I still genuinely love what I do.
 
I was born and raised in Chicago, so I don’t just work in these neighborhoods—I know them. From Lincoln Park and Lakeview to Wrigleyville and Wicker Park, I understand how each area lives, moves, and evolves, and I use that insight to help my clients make smart, confident decisions.
 
Over the years, I’ve helped buyers, sellers, and investors through every kind of market, and that experience matters. I’m also proud to be a ten-time Five Star Real Estate Professional award winner, an honor that reflects long-term client satisfaction and trust—not just one good year.
 
My approach is simple: listen first, strategize second. Buying or selling a home isn’t just a transaction—it’s a big life moment. I take the time to understand your priorities, explain the data clearly, and guide you through the process with honesty and care. No pressure, no guesswork.
 
I work with everything from residential homes to luxury properties and investment opportunities, and I give every client the same level of attention, no matter the price point.
 
I’m based out of both the Lincoln Park and Bucktown offices, which allows me to stay closely connected to the neighborhoods I serve.
 
If you’re thinking about making a move—or just want real insight before you do—I’d love to connect.
My goal is simple: to help you feel informed, confident, and supported every step of the way.

Testimonials
Very professional and knowledgeable, she delivered on everything she promised, got me over asking price for my property an she sold it in less than 2 weeks!, I highly recommend her for any real state needs.
by CJ Adams
Rose knows what she's doing, and you can definitely trust her advice more than you can trust your own viewpoint when you're caught up in the excitement of a potential property. Whenever we wanted to see a place she was able to get us in ASAP. She gave us good insight about the market. Helped us stay focused and calm during the negotiation. Overall she made the process enjoyable and we got what we were hoping for.
by Benedict Fischer
Rose handled the sale of my home from start to finish in a very professional manner. She was extremely helpful in providing a realistic market valuation and was sensitive to accommodate my schedule and special requests. Thanks to Rose my home sold quickly during a time of year when other properties remain unsold. I highly recommend Chicago Rose Group
by Dawn Bohman
I would recommend Rose Alvarez to anyone that needs a very knowledgeable yet not over bearing real estate agent! She was very prompt, very professional and last but not least...a pleasure to work with!
by Janice Wlodarek
Rose helped me locate and purchase an investment condo several years ago. She showed me a number of properties and I always valued her input on the pros and cons of each property. I felt she had my best interest in mind. After making my purchase, Rose listed the property and located a tenant for me. She showed the condo multiple times, took applications, performed background checks and found a young woman who has been the perfect tenant for the last four years. Rose earned my trust and I appreciated her honesty and integrity. The next time I need a realtor, Rose will be be the first person I will call.

Rose M. Alvarez was the utmost professional and thoroughly demonstrated her expertise and knowledge of the local real estate market and specifically Lakeview. Rose was a pleasure to work with and made the entire selling process much less stressful. I would definitely recommend Rose M. Alvarez if you are looking for a great selling experience!
by Tara Tesch
Rose was a pro from start to finish. My pets liked her too.
by Vinny J.
We had previously dealt with Rose and we were very happy with her. Knowing that we were going to sell our mother's home we quickly thought of having Rose be our realtor. We knew that Rose would do a better than expected job for us and came through and we have 4 offers on the house within 48 hours. We would highly recommend Rose to my family and friends. Very professional and helpful in all aspects of selling this home.
by Terri Costabile
Rose M Alvarez is my go to agent because she is extremely knowledgeable, understanding, and gets results. Rose is an amazing negotiator and I trust her to secure the best offer every time.
by Sana Gutierrez
Rose was always very kind. Upon our first meeting at the unit she did not come empty-handed. Having Berkshire Hathaway on her card, advertising did not go unnoticed. She was a true professional through and through.
by Spencer Morgantini
Rose was amazing!!! She had great communication/understanding and went above and beyond!
by Aurora A.
Rose was determined to make sure we sold the house at a number I needed/wanted after the first realtor I inquired with would of listed at a lower price. She saw the value of my property, and made sure there was no money "left off the table". Rose went above and beyond, and sold my house and got me my number. The proccess was a little straining with 2 buyers backing out (one had cold feet, the other didn't have finances together, stuff that was out of our control) but it was all worth it in the end. I would use and recommend her again.
by Shawn Jefferson
Rose M Alvarez,is a highly informed and wonderful , caring,salesperson.
by Elaine Nowak
I have known Rose for many years but in a different setting / capacity. I was looking for someone that I knew, felt comfortable with and had experience in this area. I believe I contacted her via email, to which she responded immediately. Not only was she knowledgeable, she was honest. She took the time to know and understand me, and what I would or would not like. She stated clearly, the pros and cons of a property under consideration. I would highly recommend Rose to anyone looking to purchase or sell a property.
by Bobbie N. Cotton
I couldn’t be happier nor more grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Rose on the sale of this property. Even when the circumstances changed, Rose remained steadfast and committed to helping me sell the home. I would highly recommend Rose to anyone looking to buy or sell and home, and would definitely work with her in any future real estate purchase or sale. Rose was truly my saving grace during this difficult transaction.
by Tzeittle Gonzalez
Happy with everything. Rose did a great job. The closing was sooner than expected.

Our family had an exceptional experience with Rose Alvarez and we would absolutely love to work with her again in the future. Rose was detail oriented, highly responsive and just wonderful to interact with! We highly recommend her!
by Sonia C.
Rose continues to be an exceptional professional in her field. My husband and I were very impressed with her diligence and devotion to us as our real estate agent in the selection and buying of our home. We were so delighted with Rose that we are using her services again as we sell additional property. We would highly recommend Rose to our friends and family without any hesitation. Rose M. Alvarez is the BEST!
by Ronald W.
We couldn't have been happier with our selection of Rose Alvarez as our broker. Rose is fantastic! I am amazed at how accessible Rose was during the process. She replied very quickly to all emails and text messages. She frequently checked in with us during the process. I fully trusted Rose during this process, and it really paid off. She is professional, friendly, hard working, dedicated, and organized. All these traits are what helped to sell my property so quickly. Rose likes to break records when selling properties, and definitely did this in both condos that we sold. We ended up with the perfect house and had two great experiences selling condos thanks to Rose.

Rose, I am very fortunate to be able to work with such a professional! It’s a pleasure to work with someone who is so hardworking, honest, reliable, selfless and always looking out for her clients. It makes my job so much easier. Every transaction is so smooth because of your admirable traits. Every client that I closed with you had nothing but the very best to say about you and their experience. There isn’t any issue that you won’t work hard at resolving and that makes you a valuable team player. In this business, that is so important for the client and all of us involved. I can’t say enough how you set a shining example for all to follow! Thanks for the opportunity to be on your team!
by Teresa G.
Thank you for your help in the sell of my home. You've been instrumental in making the whole process as easy on me as I could've hoped for. It would've been intolerably stressful had it not been for your help. Your knowledge and professionalism is greatly appreciated and would gladly refer you to anyone.
