I’m Alyssa Buttels, a REALTOR® and Managing Broker Licensee with Excel Realty Group serving the northern suburbs of Illinois.
Real estate isn’t just about opening doors and putting a sign in the yard anymore. Today’s market requires strategy, marketing, negotiation, and someone who knows how to actually get results.
That’s where I come in.
Since becoming licensed in 2021, I’ve built my business around doing things differently, combining strong marketing, modern technology, and real human connection to help my clients buy and sell with confidence.
Whether it’s creating high-impact video marketing for listings, negotiating aggressively for buyers, or guiding first-time homeowners through the process step-by-step, my goal is simple: make the experience smooth, informed, and successful.
Outside of real estate, I’m a single mom to my son Jonah who keeps life busy with sports and adventures. My faith and personal growth are also a big part of my life and help guide the way I approach business, relationships, and serving my clients with integrity.
Relationships matter, community matters, and people deserve an agent who truly shows up for them.
If you’re thinking about buying, selling, investing, or just want real advice about the market, social media, or anything mom related,
I’d love to connect!

The value of your home depends on several factors including recent sales in the area, the condition of your property, location, and current market demand. Online estimates can be a helpful starting point, but they often miss important details. I provide a personalized market analysis to determine a realistic and competitive price for your home.
No. While putting 20% down can help avoid private mortgage insurance, many buyers purchase homes with much less. Depending on the loan program, down payments can be as low as 3–5%, and some programs even allow 0% down for qualified buyers. A trusted lender can help determine the best option for your situation.
