Liz Marks-Strauss

Liz Marks-Strauss has been guiding clients through life's biggest transitions in the Indianapolis real estate market since 2014. As the founder of Hey Mom I'm Home, Liz has built her business on a simple but powerful philosophy: real estate is about matchmaking—developing a deep understanding of each person's needs and goals, then finding the perfect match to help them achieve their dreams.

Known affectionately as the "real estate mom," Liz brings an unmatched level of care, availability, and communication to every client relationship. She doesn't just open doors and write contracts—she serves as a trusted advisor across the full spectrum of homeownership, from financial decision-making to home maintenance to building connections with new neighbors. Her clients consistently describe her as exceptionally caring, detail-oriented, and deeply invested in their success.

Liz's approach is built on integrity and a genuine love of people. She welcomes clients at every level of experience—from first-time buyers who aren't sure where to start, to seasoned investors, to families navigating complex transitions. The diversity of her clientele keeps her skills sharp and her perspective fresh, allowing her to stay in tune with market changes across the entire Indianapolis metro area.

Some of Liz's most rewarding moments have come from helping older first-time homebuyers achieve what they thought was impossible—working alongside the right lenders and advocates to turn dreams into keys and addresses. Many of these clients have become lifelong friends, which Liz considers the greatest reward of her work.

Beyond transactions, Liz is passionate about building genuine relationships. She's known for coffee dates and meaningful conversations that extend well beyond the closing table. She champions small businesses throughout Indianapolis—not just through her personal patronage, but by connecting clients with trusted local vendors for home services and beyond.

When she's not working (though with 12-hour days fueled by early morning yoga, that's a rarity), Liz loves to travel—especially to mountain destinations—and explore new restaurants, independent coffee shops, and charming small towns. She's a self-proclaimed foodie who finds joy in discovery, whether that's a hidden gem bistro in Carmel or a lazy day reading on a beach somewhere far from home. Liz is also a passionate animal lover and looks forward to volunteering at pet shelters in retirement.

As a team leader, Liz is committed to helping her agents build strong, sustainable businesses rooted in the same values that guide her own work: integrity, work ethic, genuine connection, and care for every client. Her five-year vision centers on empowering her team members to achieve long-term success while she continues to serve clients, earn cherished personal referrals, and grow as a professional.

Liz operates throughout the Indianapolis metro area, including Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, Westfield, Zionsville, Greenwood, and dozens of surrounding communities.
