Company History

Peoria native and former Mayor, James Maloof, who continues to actively function as the Chairman of the Board. In 1969, he started Jim Maloof / Realtor® and within 8 years, became the #1 company in sales in Central Illinois. The company's current President is Jim's son, Michael Maloof.

Today, Jim Maloof / Realtor® is Central Illinois' largest independent Realtor with 16 branches in six counties and employs over 200 agents and a support staff of 30. We consider Jim Maloof / Realtor® our company because of the caring family atmosphere. We are a technology-current community and family oriented company involved in several philanthropies. These include being a major supporter of the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, the St. Jude Mid-West Affiliate, the Peoria Ballet, and the Salvation Army.

We function as a "one-stop-shop" by offering several specialty divisions including a Commercial Department, a New Homes/Construction Department, the area's only Corporate Welcome Center/Relocation Department, Prestige Rentals and an award-winning Marketing/Advertising Department.
