A former Chicago developer marketing executive with 10+ years in the city and travels to 30+ countries, Alison brings a global perspective and creative eye to the North Shore market. She is driven by genuine client connection and sharp negotiation.
Alison Marino's path to North Shore real estate was anything but conventional — and that's exactly what makes her so effective. Before joining Third Coast Luxury, she spent over a decade in Chicago's development marketing world, where she honed her eye for design, staging, and positioning properties to attract the right buyers.
Her travels to more than 30 countries have given her a global perspective on architecture, lifestyle, and what makes a home truly special. Whether she's drawing inspiration from Mediterranean villa design or Scandinavian minimalism, Alison brings a creative sophistication to her work that her clients love.
But don't let the worldly polish fool you — Alison is a fierce negotiator. Her background in development marketing means she understands both sides of every transaction, giving her clients a strategic advantage whether they're buying or selling. She knows how developers think, how markets move, and how to position her clients for the best possible outcome.
At her core, Alison is driven by authentic connection. She takes the time to truly understand her clients — their style, their priorities, their dreams — and then works relentlessly to deliver. Her clients often describe her as the agent who "gets it" before you even finish explaining what you're looking for.
