About Chris Laubach
A career of making clients happy
After a successful 30-year career in advertising, selling everything from Quaker Oatmeal to McDonald’s hamburgers, Chris is proud to now be selling real estate. He’s using his creativity, marketing savvy, and genuine love of seeing clients happy, to service buyers and sellers all around Chicago.
As an advertising Creative Director, Chris was known for mentoring young people and building strong relationships with the C-Suite. This translates well to helping first time buyers as well as premier property sellers.
Since he has always thrived in big ad agencies like Leo Burnett and DDB, he joined the Lincoln Park Plaza office of Coldwell Banker, the biggest office in the city and one of the top sales offices in the country. He appreciates the value of all the services, support and experience of our more than 230 agents, including his wife Chris Stockwell, who he is happily partnering with. Her years of success in this business and his fresh enthusiasm make them a uniquely well-rounded team. And they are supported by a stellar network of home stagers, photographers, graphic designers, handymen, inspectors, mortgage brokers and lawyers.
Chris runs this city
As an avid runner and marathoner, Chris has literally pounded the pavement in every neighborhood in Chicago. A long-time resident of Lincoln Park, he also knows his way around Lakeview, Wrigleyville, North Center, Roscoe Village, Ravenswood, Lincoln Square, Andersonville, Logan Square, Bucktown, Wicker Park and West Town.
Chris approaches every real estate transaction like a race. He knows the importance of preparation--staging a home perfectly, doing competitive market analyses, understanding the “fit” of a neighborhood. He has the stamina for the process--marketing, doing open houses & showings, helping to get financing. And he knows the elation of crossing that finish line--the closing!
He can relate to what his clients are going through since he has owned both houses and condos, and was even the President of his condo association when he lived in NYC. Anyone who knows him can tell you he is energetic, detail-oriented, and a born negotiator. With his sense of humor he will do everything he can to make a potentially stressful process more enjoyable.
