About Karina

Born and raised in Chicago, Karina Hiselman began her real estate career in leasing, helping clients relocate throughout the city while working in luxury downtown high-rise buildings. Her early experience gave her a deep understanding of the rental market, neighborhood lifestyles, and what it truly takes to help people find a place that feels like home. At just 25 years old, Karina purchased her own multi-unit properties, sparking her passion for real estate investing and long-term wealth building through real estate. Since 2018, she has helped buyers, sellers, and investors navigate the market across the Chicagoland area and surrounding suburbs with honesty, strategy, and a client-first approach. Today, as a resident of Crystal Lake in McHenry County, Karina has grown passionate about helping people discover the lifestyle that drew her and her family to the area. Whether it’s enjoying lake life, exploring local communities, or ice skating with her kids, she understands firsthand why so many families are making the move from the city to the suburbs. Karina specializes in helping first-time homebuyers, veterans, ITIN buyers, investors, and families looking to relocate to McHenry County and Lake County. She also loves helping clients find second homes or vacation properties near the water, embracing the peaceful and active lifestyle the area has to offer. Over the years, Karina has built a trusted network of experienced realtors, lenders, attorneys, inspectors, and local vendors to ensure her clients receive exceptional service every step of the way. Known for her strong work ethic, market knowledge, and personable approach, she is committed to making every client feel informed, supported, and confident throughout the process. Whether you’re buying your first home, investing in real estate, selling a property, or dreaming about lake living, Karina is ready to help you make your next move with confidence.

Working with Karina Hiselman made home buying fun and easy. She made purchasing my condo in Oak Park remarkably effortless. Karina was patient, efficient, and was always there to answer any random question of mine. She’s a pros pro and I would highly recommend anyone in Chicagoland needing a realtor to her and her team at Compass. Thank you!!

As a buyer's agent, I often find that the listing agent's professionalism is the key factor in a smooth closing, and Karina Hiselman exceeded all expectations.

From initial offer submission through the final closing, communication was consistently prompt, clear, and efficient. She was incredibly responsive to all inquiries and the entire process was made seamless thanks to her cooperative attitude and commitment to finding mutually beneficial solutions.

If you are looking for a listing agent who is highly ethical, exceptionally organized, and truly understands how to facilitate a clean and timely closing, look no further than Karina. It was a genuine pleasure working with her!
