Steven Aisen

Steve made his career path into the real estate business by way of Wall Street.  Steve earned his MBA from the Stern School of Business at New York University and then spent several years at JP Morgan structuring and selling derivatives products to the bank’s corporate and institutional clients. After leaving the bank, Steve spent five years as a trader at a hedge fund, where he successfully managed and grew the firm’s relative-value focused convertible arbitrage trading strategy.

In 2006, Steve made the leap from the financial industry to luxury real estate by joining Heritage Luxury Builders, and later @Properties as a licensed Illinois realtor.  Steve spent seven years at Heritage Luxury Builders developing the luxury custom construction and real estate business at Heritage.  During his years with Heritage, Steve gained extensive knowledge of new construction and the North Shore real estate market, from the grass roots level to putting entire deals together.

Today, Steve has capitalized on all of his past experience and founded Newgard Custom Homes, a new type of residential building company that puts the client first and focuses on innovation in residential construction.  Steve brings a client-focused, highly organized, and detail-oriented approach new construction.  Steve’s ability to seamlessly guide clients through the custom building process and make the construction of clients’ dream homes into an efficient and hassle-free experience is what distinguishes Newgard from other residential home builders on the North Shore.

Steve’s financial background  and new construction expertise gives him a particularly unique vantage point in advising client’s about their biggest investment, their home.  Steve is focused on exceptional client service.

Having grown up on the North Shore and graduated from New Trier, Steve has returned to the North Shore to raise his family in Glencoe. Steve is committed to better living on the North Shore and improving and serving its neighborhoods.  Steve has been involved in coaching baseball with the Glencoe Baseball Association, and other local charitable organizations.
