Get To Know Us

Founded in 2024 and led by real estate broker Irais Torres, This Is IT was built on a simple idea: real estate should work for you whether you're buying your first home or building a portfolio.

Irais started her career in property management before becoming a licensed broker in 2021, and that operator's perspective still shapes how the team works today. She's spent years on the leasing and sales side, getting to know Chicago's neighborhoods block by block — which means clients get advice that is grounded in lived experience not just what you hear or read online. She practices what she preaches - she’s also a multifamily investor on the South Side of Chicago and loves to educate and inform customers on all the possibilities within their reach.

Irais is a real estate rockstar! As first-time homebuyers diving into the world of multi-family properties, we were excited until we got nervous. We are so thankful Irais held our hand the whole time. Her knowledge of how to make a deal, work with numbers, even pointing out concerns with the construction of niproperties is seriously impressive. Even though I'd spent ages binging on real estate podcasts a...

In subsequent viewings she remembered everything that I previously said re likes or...

Irais made my experience finding an apartment so much more easy than I expected. We extensively discussed my wants and needs for a home and she handled my case with attentiveness and care. When she showed me her apartment finds in person, I had a hard time borrowing down because she hit the mark with every one. She was so wonderful I recommended her to some friends and she was able to help them find the ...

I couldn't have asked for a better realtor! Irais made my home-buying process so easy, and her years of experience have given me valuable insight into which units were good financial investments for me as we toured. She's very responsive, and she has a great network of people that are just as dedicated to their clients and have taken the time to teach me all about real estate.
