ATG Hosts Open House in New Chicago Loop Closing Space

Our thanks to all who attended our Spring Fiesta Open House and shared in our celebration last month!

ATG kicked off 2022 with a beautiful new space for you and your clients. Our Chicago Loop closing rooms and support services are now located on the first floor of One South Wacker (see our March 2022 Trusted Adviser article).

Our new state-of-the-art facility has six roomy closing rooms, space where parties can make calls, consult, and prepare for their closing, and a staffed reception area for assistance. As always, underwriting support just a call away. Another highlight, our custom mural, New Beginnings at ATG. We commissioned this special artwork to depict the homebuying process and salute our agents, clients, and mission. The artist is Chicago's Amanda Paulson — check out the images, below!
