Meet Our Team

Adam Stary’s journey into real estate is rooted in the values instilled by his parents, with his father serving as his lifelong role model. After high school, he chose to skip college and began his career in car sales, where he discovered his passion for connecting with people and selling.

By 21, Adam transitioned into real estate, where he has spent 16 successful years working with respected companies like Coldwell Banker, RE/MAX, and john greene REALTOR®. In 2022, Adam opened his own eXp Realty office in Yorkville, creating a supportive and family-like culture for his team. Coaching his team and watching them grow and succeed is one of his greatest rewards throughout his career.

Outside of real estate, Adam’s biggest joy is traveling, hunting and spending time with his family. He is passionate about giving back, supporting organizations such as Feed My Starving Children, CASA, St. Jude’s and our local schools and sports programs. Coaching his children’s sports teams is one of his most fulfilling roles.

For Adam, success is about freedom, family, and helping others achieve their dreams. “Real estate allows me to enjoy everything I love,” he says. “It’s what I was put on this earth to do.”

Originally from Yorkville, I spent a decade in Wheaton and now call Plano home. With over six years of experience in residential real estate, I’ve helped more than 200 clients buy or sell their homes, achieving over $65 million in sales. Starting as Adam's Buyers Agent in 2019, I now excel in both buying and selling, focusing on understanding my clients' real estate goals, building long-term relationships, and negotiating contracts effectively.

Beyond real estate, my greatest inspiration comes from my two children, a 4-year-old daughter and a 1-year-old son. I’m passionate about spending time with my family, bowling in my Wednesday night league, golfing, disc golfing, and traveling. As part of a traveling fantasy football league, I enjoy the excitement of live drafts in unique destinations.

I’m also dedicated to giving back, having raised over $17,000 for St. Baldrick’s and volunteering for organizations like Feed My Starving Children and Habitat for Humanity. I’m a fan of good food—steak, tacos, seafood, and Filipino dishes—and dream of traveling to the Philippines, Greece, Italy, and Hawaii.

My favorite quote is: “Some people want it to happen, some wish it to happen, others make it happen.” In the next 5–10 years, I aim to own multiple investment properties, travel the world with my family, and continue running a thriving real estate business that goes above and beyond for clients.

Hailing from Aurora and now residing in Sugar Grove, I am a dedicated professional with a strong foundation in communication, time management, organization, attention to detail, and problem-solving. My career journey began as a dental assistant, a role I held for two years while pursuing studies to become an ultrasound technician.

Academically, I have always excelled, earning high honors throughout high school and a spot on the dean's list in college. My drive and work ethic are fueled by the unwavering support and inspiration I draw from my family and friends, especially my mother, whose resilience motivates me to aim high.
