Relocating to Central Peoria
Moving to Greater Peoria from out of the area, with video tours and local context a listing can't give you.
Relocating to Central Peoria: what you get
Relocating to Central Peoria from out of the area means choosing a town, a neighborhood and a house, often from a distance. I'll help you narrow it down before you spend time and money on a trip.
Greater Peoria is a 20-minute town, where urban, suburban and rural living are close together, so the right fit may be a town you hadn't considered.
Why Central Peoria buyers work with me
I'm Shannan Werckle, a Broker-REALTOR® with eXp Realty and the name behind Greater Peoria Living. Central Peoria is one of the parts of the city where I work most, and I know how much condition varies from one block to the next.
When you can't be here, I'll tour homes for you by video. One buyer who purchased from out of the area wrote that she never felt left alone during the process.
Central Peoria runs roughly from McClure and Forest Hill avenues north to Glen Avenue, and from about University Street east nearly to Prospect Road, with Knoxville Avenue through the middle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I buy a home without visiting first?
Many relocating buyers narrow things down by video first, and I'll tour homes for you, give you the context a listing leaves out, and keep you informed at every step.
When were most Central Peoria homes built?
Most were built from the late 1920s through the 1950s. Many are brick, and because most predate 1978, federal lead-based paint disclosures apply.
