Since 1995, Shrake Group has served thousands of clients as residential and commercial real estate brokers. Its three divisions, Global Luxury, Commercial & Investor Services, and Residential, serve their clients' specific needs.

Group founder Matt Shrake began his award-winning career at the corner of Ashland Ave and Diversey Pkwy and has spent the last 25+ years expanding and deepening client services using Coldwell Banker's platform to serve clients. He knows the city intimately, is an industry leader, and spends countless hours staying current on the real estate market. Matt has given his time to neighborhood councils, non-profits for underprivileged neighbors, public and private schools, youth athletic boards, urban renewal, sports coaching, and numerous other community-building efforts. He knows and loves Chicago and its neighborhoods and people, and Chicagoans from all walks of life know and respect Matt. His passion for selling, developing, and managing real estate across Chicago’s great neighborhoods and nearby suburbs, and the tremendous support and loyalty of his client base has pushed Matt to bring on additional enthusiastic brokers and staff over the years to grow into today's Shrake Group.

Laura Apostolopoulos joined the team in 2016 as an unlicensed assistant. She quickly realized she too wanted to become a broker helping clients realize their dreams. She got her real estate broker's license shortly thereafter, and began building her own client database. Laura and her beautiful young family moved from River West to Chicago's western suburbs in 2017. She has quickly established herself as a trusted local west and southwest Chicago suburb Realtor, and her move has expanded Shrake Group's Chicagoland footprint.

"It was a pleasure working with Laura on my sisters recent purchase. She was able to help her find the PERFECT home in a tough Chicago market. Laura displayed a great ability to negotiate and has a high level of integrity reflecting the professional that she is. I look forward to working with Laura again!"

"We worked with Laura to sell our home and had a wonderful experience! She was fantastic about helping us get our home on the market quickly, always fast to respond to us when needed, and very helpful throughout the entire process. We look forward to purchasing our next home with her!"

"Laura was AWESOME to work with. Being a first time home buyer, she set me up with a search that was very specific to the wants and needs I wanted in a condo. When I showed interest in one, she was very prompt to schedule meetings with the other realtors. When we went on the showing, she was very professional and asked all the right questions that I did not know at the time. When I finally picked a place, she assisted me through every little thing from the contract, inspection, loan officer, etc. Laura was present during the closing and just made me very comfortable through the entire process. I would definitely recommend Laura to anyone looking to buy a home whether you are a first time or not. I will be using her again. Thanks Laura! "
