About Jared O'Brien
Real estate isnt just our businessits our story.After working toward a degree in sales and marketing, I (Aubrey) took the leap and earned my real estate license in 2006. That same year, fate stepped inJared and I met, and he just so happened to be my very first client!Jared, a skilled steamfitter by trade, spent 13 years in his field while supporting my growing real estate career. In 2013, after overcoming a tough battle with Lyme disease (a victory we are beyond grateful for), Jared decided to take a new path, earning his real estate license. And with that, The OBrien Team was officially born.Together, weve built not just a business, but a familyboth at home and in our community. Were the proud parents of three amazing kids, and when were not helping clients, youll find us outside enjoying nature or traveling whenever our schedules allow.In 2020, we took another exciting step and opened the Jim Maloof Loft branch, thrilled to be part of the revitalization of Peorias Riverfront and Warehouse District.Our different strengths make us a dynamic duo. The ongoing joke? Jared talks more clients out of homes than he sells! With his deep knowledge of construction and home systems, hes always looking out for our buyers, making sure they invest wisely. That expertise has helped me grow as a Realtor, allowing us to guide our clients in saving time, money, and headaches.Meanwhile, my marketing background means I focus on how to best present and sell each listing quickly and effectively. Every home has its own story, and we love crafting the perfect way to showcase its standout features to attract the right buyers.At the heart of it all, we believe in relationships, integrity, and making the home buying and selling process as smooth (and fun!) as possible. Whether you're buying, selling, or just looking for advice, The OBrien Team is here to guide you every step of the way!
