I got my real estate license in 2009. My first client was an investor who often asked for my opinion on repairs, remodels, and upgrades to improve the condition, safety, and compliance of residential properties — all while highlighting their best features.

It was a great experience, and shortly after, I began doing housing rehabilitation projects for myself. I’ve purchased, renovated, and sold around 20 properties in the Chicagoland area, and I currently own two rental properties.

During the selling process, I discovered that advanced marketing materials — such as professional photos, video tours, and printed brochures — have a significant impact on both price and terms.

That insight led me to launch my own marketing company in 2023: www.lysenkophotos.com.

What sets us apart in a competitive industry is our unique approach: we blend high-quality video production with a personal touch. Every video is tailored to the specific needs of each client, ensuring top-tier content and a standout, memorable customer experience.

My mission is to create customized pre-marketing and post-marketing videos that not only highlight each property, but also capture the charm of the surrounding community — using drone footage and lifestyle-driven storytelling.

I believe my greatest value lies in my knowledge of how to increase the value of your home through strategic, low-cost repairs combined with high-impact marketing materials — including photos, videos, and print media.
