Dave Gould

Broker Associate

Dave has been a licensed Realtor since 2005 and joined @properties in 2008. He recognizes that buying or selling a home is most likely the largest and most stressful financial decision a person will ever make and he represents every client with understanding and expertise to ensure a smooth and enjoyable transaction.

Dave grew up in the Oak Park/River Forest area and has been a resident of numerous Chicago neighborhoods including Bucktown, Wicker Park, Old Town, Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Lincoln Square and Streeterville. Dave's keen understanding of the various neighborhoods benefits those who are new to the city as well as those who are not.

Dave's objective is to ensure the process of buying or selling a home is handled professionally from start to finish and he walks his clients through this process step by step with patience and knowledge. His clients include first time buyers, investors, rehabbers and sellers at all price points, in all neighborhoods and for all types of properties (condos, single family homes and multi-unit buildings).

He approaches working with buyers as an educator, helping clients understand the complexities involved both before and after finding their dream home. He provides informed and trustworthy guidance during this process, understanding the importance of buyers having an advocate by their side.

When working with sellers Dave knows the importance of top-notch marketing (the reason he joined @properties) and communication. He is versed on market conditions, pricing analysis and values, home staging and the importance of keeping sellers involved every step of the way.

Dave currently resides in West Lakeview with his wife Danielle and daughters; Emma and Lily.

"Using Dave to then sell the home in 2021 was also a great experience. We met prior to me moving out to discuss all of the different tasks that would need to be completed in order to ready the home for sale. I ended up moving out before we officially listed the property, and Dave was able to take care of setting up showings as well as some final maintenance projects, which made my life a lot easier. He updated me after each showing on the potential buyers and how interested they seemed, and when we did start getting offers he helped us to navigate that process well so that we got the best deal possible. Overall, working with Dave made the entire home selling/buying experience very easy, and I would definitely work with him again."

"Dave was so great. He balanced our wants with some of his suggestions and as a result we found our perfect family home. Dave also stuck by us through some tougher negotiations and he was great at being extremely patient. We’d recommend Dave to our family and friends anytime (in fact, we just sent a friend Dave’s contact information just last week)."

"Dave was extremely helpful in providing information on properties and connected us with a new lender with better terms. Thank you!"

-Rob M., Client

"Dave is a class act. He rented our condo within days and a fair price. It was wonderful handing off the "worry" and details to him. He definitely came through for us. I would use him again in a heart beat. "

-Erica B., Client

"Dave did a great job helping us with the sale and purchase of our homes. We followed his suggestions for prepping and pricing our house and it paid off. The house sold in a week! We were very pleased with the inspector and real estate attorney Dave recommended. Dave was with us every step of the way and made sure all our questions were answered. Both the sale and purchase went smoothly and we are happily moved in to our new home. Thanks Dave! "

-Kathy G., Family

"I would highly recommend Dave. He was essential in helping us sell our house very quickly. Within one showing, we had an offer close to list price. In addition, our attorney was not very responsive during the process, and he was able to find answers and keep things moving, despite many things not being his responsibility. The already stressful situation became much more manageable. Ultimately, we continue to work with Dave while looking to buy our next house. He is highly competent, friendly and responds almost immediately to all requests and inquiries. This is extremely helpful in a market where things are once again moving quickly."

-Kristen M., Client

"Dave was an absolute pleasure to with with to lease our Fulton Market area apartments. He was giving tours the day after we signed the contract and leased it at the price we wanted within one week. Rock solid professional we will continue to use for all our rentals."

-Charlie M., Client

"I've worked with Dave now for over 10 years and he is the epitome of professionalism, focus and execution. He helped my wife and I establish a strategy to simplify our approach in preparing our condo for showing, was diligent in follow-up and negotiation upon our receipt of an offer and helped us navigate the process toward successful closing! I'd highly recommend partnering with him for all of your home purchasing/selling and real estate needs."

-Chris R., Client

"Our broker - Dave Gould - was first-rate the entire experience. Not only did he provide the expertise and guidance that you would hope for out of your broker, but he also brought a personal touch that made the process much more enjoyable than we could have imagined.We look forward to recommending him to friends, and using him in the future."

-Tara & Patrick B., Client

"I worked with Dave to find a home in 2018, then subsequently sell that home in 2021. During the buying process Dave was very helpful in giving information on the various neighborhoods of Chicago. We toured numerous properties together, and as I was a first time home buyer Dave was instrumental in making sure that all of the correct questions were asked at each of the homes we toured. He was very responsive and accommodating about finding times to tour the homes, which we did a lot of. When we finally did find a home we liked he gave great advice on how to best deal with the seller, and helped make the closing process fairly painless. "

-Elie Z., Client

"Dave is one of a kind. I've never had a better experience with a Realtor than I have with Dave. We tell everyone we can about him. He helped my wife and me to find our first condo. We had such a great experience that when we sold, years later, we contacted him again. He was completely on top of the whole process. He helped coordinate everything and was able to get things done quickly. I've heard that buy and selling real estate can be a painful process, but thanks to Dave, I've always found it to be a great experience."

-Ben D., Client

"David Gould was extremely helpful in our home search throughout the entire process. From the starting point of our initial conversation, he worked hard to find the right place for us. He was extremely knowledgable in our target areas of the city, very responsive via email and phone about appointments, patient, and very helpful in the negotiation process. On top of all that, he finds time to write a BLOG! If you are looking for an apartment or home and don't use Dave Gould, then you shouldn't even bother!"

-Sean F., Client

"Dave is a true professional with superior knowledge of Chicago's neighborhoods and properties. He helped us buy in Lakeview in 2013 and sell in 2020, both were smooth transactions, good experiences."

-John M., Client

"Dave Gould is terrific. Always willing to help and has excellent judgment."

-Rick S., Client

"Dave is wonderful! This is our 2nd time using him and we couldn't be more pleased. He gave us great guidance from the pre-sale all the way through closing day."

-Denise D., Client

"We had an excellent experience with Dave, both buying and selling a home. He is knowledgeable, responsive, and a pleasure to work with in what can be a stressful time. He has our highest recommendation."

-Elizabeth P, Client

"Within hours of my inquiry, Dave had contacted me and organized a viewing for the same day. He was very responsive to my questions and helped me to quickly negotiate terms per my requests."

-Malia J., Client
