Eric P. Bell

We are proud to have successfully closed over 570 career transactions since 1994, establishing ourselves as a core Chicagoland apartment team within Marcus & Millichap.

Hired in 1994 as the 15th broker within Marcus & Millichap’s Chicagoland market, our team has helped grow Marcus & Millichap’s midwestern and national presence. We have sold extensive multifamily and mixed-use properties in both urban and suburban settings, as well as throughout the secondary and tertiary midwestern markets, across all age and income levels. We have also represented high profile clients and institutions, as well as many private families and partnerships. This breadth of knowledge of the local markets paired with 29 years’ experience throughout the changing real estate cycles has finely honed our ability to follow through on complex assets from analysis to escrow to close.

We pride ourselves on our specialization within the multifamily asset class but also recognizing the nuances of the diverse submarkets within the area and different product types. Our team has become well-synced as we have represented sellers of low-income housing, B- to C- workforce housing and high-end luxury communities. Eric is active in several local and national organizations, including the Chicago Apartment Association (CAA), the Real Estate Investment Association (REIA), and the National Multi-Housing Council (NMHC), further diversifying our knowledge of regional and national markets. Our clients trust our realistic and efficient approach to brokerage and know they can reach us seven days a week. Because of this, we are often chosen to tackle intricate assignments for our sellers.

Eric graduated from Kenyon College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics and played NCAA Division III football and baseball.
