Vicky Shih

Vicky Shih had other careers before real estate. In Taiwan, she worked for an international trade company. After she, her husband and their first child immigrated to the United States 25 years ago, she worked at the Chinese embassy in Chicago. While raising their three children, she sold life insurance and volunteered at the Naperville Chinese School. Real estate was too time-consuming to pursue while her children were young, but in her heart she knew that's what she wanted to do. In 2002, she launched her career as a real estate agent and in 2004 she went to work for Prospect Equities. Shih does more than help clients market homes to sell or find houses to buy. She gives sellers detailed advice on how to make their houses more attractive in economical ways. And she gladly shares decorating tips with buyers.
