He consistently puts in the time and effort, never to be outworked, to make your dreams a reality. A true testament to his work ethic is clear in not only his professional life, but in his personal life as well, being a #1 Amazon Best-Selling Author, 2x NCAA Men’s Lacrosse National Champion, as well as a Cancer Survivor. There is no opportunity that James won’t conquer, with his ultimate goal of building a thriving business, but most importantly, helping his clients reach new heights in their real estate aspirations through outstanding service, and his ability to get the job done with ease. One of Baird & Warner's best and brightest, up and coming broker, James Gurick, immediately hit the ground running with his career, providing clients with unmatched support in their real estate journey. Originally from Alexandria, Virginia, James received his Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science and Philosophy at Salisbury University, and continued his education with an Associates Degree in Criminal Justice. He currently resides in Chicago, IL, where the windy city has captured James’ interest and launched him into his passion for real estate. James has always had a keen interest in the field, often finding himself scrolling through pages and pages of pictures on various social media outlets to learn about the wide array of architectural designs the world has to offer. He made the decision to lean into this industry and build a strong business with a foundation based on the goal of helping others achieve their goals. When looking for the perfect organization to join, James felt Baird & Warner was not only a top brokerage in the city, but had excellent mentorship, training programs, and an overall positive, hard working environment where he would truly be a part of a winning team that he could thrive in. James serves the City of Chicago from end to end, as well as the entirety of the Chicagoland area’s surrounding suburbs.
