MEET BONITA HARRISON
Our Founder & Managing Broker
A proud South Side Chicago native, Bonita earned her Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from the University of Illinois at Chicago and was awarded a full scholarship to pursue her Master of Science in Mathematics. She has been in the real estate industry since 2006. She made history as the first woman, the first Black person, and the youngest recipient of The Cook County Land Bank’s Developer of the Year award. She stands as proof that underrepresented leaders not only belong in this industry but can also reshape it.
Bonita is also a graduate of programs like Leadership Greater Chicago, Goldman Sachs One Million Black Women, and JP Morgan NY Pace, bringing institutional credibility while never losing sight of the grassroots communities she serves. She invests in elevating other women and minority developers, creating a pipeline of future leaders in real estate advising and development who will continue to break ceilings and expand opportunity.
