Why Pekin buyers work with me
I'm Shannan Werckle, a Broker-REALTOR® with eXp Realty and the name behind Greater Peoria Living. I've sold multiple homes in Pekin, from renovated older homes to homes from the 1990s.
Illinois property taxes are a big line on any investment here, and they vary between towns, so they're part of the math from the start.
Mineral Springs Park hosts the Pekin Marigold Festival each September, and golfers have Parkview Golf Course, Lick Creek Golf Course and a country club.
