Our Founder
Bob Bohlen
Visionary

Vision is the art of seeing the invisible, turning the probable into the possible. That is the essence of Bob Bohlen's work. Being the best at what he does is Bob - to him, it's as natural as breathing.

Maybe a childhood story can give you a good illustration of Bob. According to his sister Susan, when Bob was a youngster, he didn't build traditional sand castles like the other kids, he sculpted major metropolitan areas with underground subways and a working sewage system. And this was just the beginning of an impressive record of accomplishments for him. This ambition has embodied itself in an entrepreneurial drive that has produced successful companies which Bob owned and operated in the fields of: residential building, farm management, real estate brokerage, interior design, document services, cattle breeding, land development, financial planning, cash crop farming and property auctions.

Award-Winning Service

Bob grew up on his family's farm in Central Illinois, giving him the opportunity to see how hard work can return dividends down the road. Whether he was raising livestock for auction or trying to "break" a steer to halter, he quickly saw that the bigger the effort he put in, the greater the results. With that inbred work ethic, Bob has dedicated himself for over a decade to his true passion - real estate. He is an award-winning Realtor and number-one producer, but Bob still constantly works to improve his services so you can experience the very best there is to offer.

If you were to follow Bob around for a day, you would be well advised to get plenty of rest and plan to rise before the chickens. Bob often arrives at his real estate office at 5 a.m. so he can enjoy the peace and quiet and begin mapping out his daily objectives. A master of time management, Bob can squeeze two days accomplishment into one day of work - and sometimes before most people have their morning cup of coffee. He has spoken to groups all over the United States from New York to San Francisco and New Orleans to Canada on his favorite subject - time management. When the first people and phone calls start coming in, Bob has taken care of his small details and swings through the office to check on everyone. Answering questions about complex real estate problems, Bob is a resource that people seek out for expert advice. Fueled by a positive attitude and genuine interest in people, it doesn't take long before Bob has put smiles on others' faces.

"There are no other real estate firms in our area who have achieved the ISO-9001 level of quality assurance which is what customer satisfaction is all about."
