"The feeling of waking up the first morning in your new home is an amazing rush. Whether it's a fresh start or a new chapter, your home is the framework for a lifetime of memories."

Licensed in 2008 during one of the most challenging real estate markets in modern history, Rhonda Altman built her career on resilience, market mastery, and unwavering dedication to her clients. Starting her journey in real estate as an office staff member, Rhonda held virtually every position in a real estate office before stepping into management. That complete 360-degree understanding of the transaction process gives her clients and agents a rare competitive edge.

Today, Rhonda serves as the Vice President and Designated Managing Broker for Baird & Warner in Plainfield, bringing over 15 years of industry leadership and more than 300 successfully closed transactions. Backed by Baird & Warner’s 160+ years of Chicagoland real estate expertise, Rhonda combines hyper-local market intelligence across Will County with a deeply personal, hands-on approach.

Rhonda is a deeply respected leader within the real estate community. A longtime advocate for professional standards and agent development, she served as the 2023 Board President for the Three Rivers Association of REALTORS® and was honored as their 2023 REALTOR® of the Year (following her Rising Star Award in 2011). She holds a comprehensive list of top industry designations, including ABR, CRS, GRI, SRES, SRS, PSA, BPOR, E-PRO, and SFR.

Beyond the real estate contracts and market data, Rhonda is known for her warm, straight-forward guidance and local community involvement. When she isn’t helping buyers, sellers, and brokers navigate Will County real estate, you can usually find her spending time with her high school sweetheart, sipping on a fresh cup of coffee, or skipping any movie where the dog doesn't make it to the end.
