About Creg
Creg, a University of Illinois alum, found his true home in Champaign and has remained dedicated to the community ever since. With over three decades of experience, he has thrived in the local business scene, specializing in real estate development and entrepreneurship. In 2009, he established The McDonald Group Real Estate Company, which has consistently ranked as the top-volume producer in Champaign-Urbana since 2012. Beyond his vast expertise in real estate, it's Creg's unwavering commitment to integrity, honesty, and personalized client care that truly distinguishes him.
Deeply rooted in the fabric of the C-U Community, Creg prioritizes philanthropy, believing in the importance of giving back. For the past 30 years, he has actively served on various charity boards and generously lends his auctioneer skills to support celebrity charities nationwide.
Family is paramount to Creg, and he takes immense pride in his daughters, Mia and Kelley, both graduates of the University of Illinois. Mia, now a practicing attorney, resides in Chicago with her husband, Tom. Meanwhile, Kelley, accompanied by Creg's grandkitty Pippa, also calls Chicago home, focusing on social media and multimedia marketing.
Married to his incredible wife, Liz, who shares his passion for real estate, Creg jokingly admits to being the "second best Realtor" in the family. Outside of work, he finds joy in golf, boating, and passionately supporting sports teams like the St. Louis Cardinals, as well as local high school and University of Illinois athletics.
