Mike Long/Long Realty

About

I graduated from the University of Iowa in 1998 with a degree in Journalism & Mass Communication. I jumped right into real estate by joining a firm started by my grandfather and uncle, Long Realty. After 3 years of training with my two uncles, Jim & Bob, I switched to a downtown Chicago firm and began my downtown Chicago business. The firm I joined for 7 years was Rubloff Residential Properties.

After 7 wonderful years downtown with Rubloff I came back to Long Realty. I moved back to Naperville in 2005 and began growing my business back in the suburbs. Now my business is split 50/50 between Western Suburbs of Chicago and Downtown Chicago real estate.

In 2002 I obtained my G.R.I. designation (Graduate REALTOR® Institute.) The G.R.I. designation is 90 hours of classwork with some of the best real estate instructors in the country. In 2007 I was elected to the Board of Governors for the REALTOR Institue for the Illinois Association of Realtors. This is a 3 year term.

As you will be able to see from my blog I LOVE statistics. I’m a numbers guy and I love sharing them with you. If you ever have any question never hesitate as my door is always open. Enjoy the blog and I look forward to hearing from you.
