About Me
Hi, I'm Conner Cognac — a luxury real estate professional with RE/MAX Top Performers, proudly part of the Jane Lee Team. I grew up in Lake Zurich, attending Lake Zurich High School, and have lived all across the Chicago suburbs my entire life. That firsthand experience gives me a deep, genuine knowledge of the local market, the neighborhoods, and what makes each community unique.
My approach is simple: I listen first. Every client's situation is unique, and I take the time to truly understand your goals before crafting a strategy tailored to you — not a template, not a script.
I hold an Associate's degree in Business Management & Administration and am currently pursuing my Bachelor's degree — a commitment to continuous growth that I bring to every client relationship. Whether you're buying, selling, or simply exploring, I'm here to guide you with honesty, local expertise, and genuine care every step of the way.

I'm actively working on bringing exceptional properties to market. Leave your email below and I'll reach out as soon as new listings become available — or simply reach out directly to discuss what you're looking for.
How I Work
We begin with a real conversation about your vision, lifestyle, timeline, and budget — I want to understand who you are before we talk property.
Leveraging off-market connections and the MLS, I surface properties that match your criteria — often before they reach the public eye.
I negotiate on your behalf with market data, strategic positioning, and a genuine commitment to getting you the best possible outcome.
From inspection to final walkthrough, I coordinate every detail so your closing day is smooth, celebratory, and completely stress-free.

Whether you're buying, selling, or simply curious about the market, I'm here for a no-pressure conversation.
