Booker Group
We feel very fortunate to have found our place, our place to call home. Helping others find a place to call home aligns with our commitment to give back to our community. So it is our pleasure to work with a range of buyers; we work with everyone in the home search process, including renters and first-time home buyers.
At the Booker Group, we collaborate to support every client. In other words, our clients do not just have one advisor assisting them, they have an entire team working together to help them achieve their goals. Being part of a team allows us to have more people providing direct support to each client. No detail is left to chance. With our different skill sets, it comes together to create magic. Ellis has a lifetime of professional experience listening to people’s stories. Erin brings an educator’s ability to guide and nurture, and is terrifically organized, using multiple systems to ensure attention to every detail. Andrew assists with details and tasks to make each transaction smooth and stress-free for all. Combined with Engel & Völkers, the Booker Group provides our clients with bespoke experiences. We are honored to be part of a company that is as committed to this as we are.
When not working, you will find all three members of the Booker Team traveling. Erin and Ellis are avid scuba divers – they met through the sport – and have spent almost 10 years exploring the underwater world together. An extension of their love of the ocean is a commitment to environmental conservation and sustainability to protect our shared, planetary home.

Testimonials
- Kimberly Carpenter PetitErin was amazing guiding me through the sales process. Due to numerous prior commitments I would not have been able to sell at this time if it were not for Erin's assistance. Thank you for everything!
- K WWorking with Erin Booker was an outstanding experience. As an out-of-state seller, I needed someone who could handle every detail with professionalism and clear communication, and Erin exceeded expectations from start to finish. She kept me fully informed, coordinated seamlessly with local contractors and buyers’ agents, and ensured that the process stayed on track without me having to be physically present. Her pricing strategy and marketing were spot-on—we ended up selling my condo over list price, which was beyond what I expected. If you’re looking for a broker who is knowledgeable, resourceful, and genuinely invested in her clients’ success, I highly recommend Erin. She made what could have been a stressful long-distance sale into a smooth, confident, and successful transaction.
- Kelley FarrellGreat team! Erin was lovely to work with and kept us updated throughout our transaction. Very professional and kind.

What makes Erin exceptional is not just her expertise but also her genuine care for the people she works with. She listens, she anticipates needs, and she goes the extra mile every single time.

If you are buying or selling in Chicago, you will not find a more professional, dedicated, and skilled agent than Erin. She is simply the best.
- Ethan FespermanOur family set an intention to purchase a condo within a short commute to Depaul University. Erin was a marvelous co-pilot on our venture into the condo buying process. From the kernel of an idea, to signing the closing documents, Erin cheerfully answered our many questions and provided sage advice on the ins/outs of Chicago real estate. We are grateful to have found an agent that was kind, knowledgeable and invested in our real estate journey. High recommend to other Depaul parents!
- Aidan HoyalErin and her team helped us find and purchase the perfect spot for our family. Buying from a different state is challenging - Erin took care to answer every question thoughtfully and thoroughly, and took the time to visit properties and send us video walk throughs. We simply could not have done this without Erin and we are incredibly grateful for her kindness, patience and expertise. Thank you, Erin!
- ralph runionsErin is very attentive. IF she doesn't know the answer, She will find it. Great response times
- cristina casaresWorking with my Realtor Erin Booker was an outstanding experience. From the very beginning, she was professional, knowledgeable, and always one step ahead in guiding me through the homebuying process. She not only showed me the right homes that fit my needs but also connected me with a great lender, which made my mortgage approval quick and stress-free. Thanks to her hard work and dedication, I was able to close on my new home in just two months and move in without any issues. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients and makes the process smooth from start to finish. If you’re looking for a Realtor who is reliable, attentive, and genuinely cares about helping you find the right home, I highly recommend giving her a call. She will guide you every step of the way—you’ll be glad you worked with her!
- Wes ShawWorking with Erin Booker has been an absolute pleasure. As a loan officer, I get to work with many real estate agents, but Erin truly stands out. She brings a perfect balance of professionalism, warmth, and sharp negotiation skills to every transaction. My clients consistently felt informed, supported, and confident throughout the process — thanks to Erin’s clear communication, attention to detail, and deep knowledge of the market. She goes above and beyond to advocate for her buyers and make the homebuying experience not only smooth, but genuinely enjoyable. If you’re looking for an agent who’s responsive, proactive, and an absolute rockstar in every sense, I can’t recommend Erin enough. She’s the kind of partner every lender hopes to work with — and every client is lucky to have in their corner.
- Mason StrausbaughErin is everything you hope for in a realtor: responsive, thoughtful, and incredibly knowledgeable. My wife and I were moving to Milwaukee from out of state and buying our first pre-owned home, which could’ve been overwhelming, but Erin made it feel simple and exciting. She took the time to understand exactly what we needed and delivered at every step, from showings to negotiations. We found our perfect home quickly, and that wouldn’t have happened without her. If you want someone who truly listens, advocates for you, and makes the entire journey feel effortless, Erin is the one you want in your corner.
