We cannot say enough wonderful things about Hileary Cleary with the Downers Grove Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices office. She went above and beyond in helping our family sell our uncle’s home in Chicago after his passing. From the start, it was clear she was not just interested in selling a house—she was committed to helping us through a difficult transition. While other agents wanted to list the property “as is,” Hileary coordinated an estate sale, junk removal, and managed contractors for repairs, painting, and floor refinishing. Thanks to her smart pricing and attention to detail, the home sold quickly for $50,000 over our agreed-upon list price. Throughout the process, she communicated clearly and handled everything with compassion and professionalism. Hileary truly cared about what was best for our family and made a challenging situation seamless. She is exceptional.

Hileary Cleary is a knowledgeable, dedicated realtor that really does work for you and with you. She helped us sell our previous home and to buy our new one. We had very specific criteria for the new home, as we wanted to find a spot we could age in place. She patiently helped us to find just the right spot and we are thankful for her wisdom and guidance in doing so. If you are looking to buy or sell your residential property - we highly recommend you give Hileary a chance to help you like she helped us. It is worth every penny.

Hileary was fantastic to work with. She was professional, prompt, easy to reach and communicate with and most of all I felt she always had my best interests in mind.

Hileary did an amazing job negotiating both the buying and selling process with us. She wrote a strong offer that got us the contract on a house we loved that had multiple offers. Her marketing for our listing to sell was above and beyond, drawing so much interest and multiple offers over asking in just days. She was knowledgeable, quick to respond, and transparent throughout both the buying and selling process. In this competitive market, you want someone like Hileary on your side!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Hileary as my real estate agent, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. From our first meeting, she was incredibly helpful and attentive, always ready to answer my questions and provide guidance. During negotiations, Hileary was a strong advocate for me, ensuring my interests were well represented. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, we successfully closed the deal. If you're looking for a real estate agent who truly cares about her clients and knows how to get results, Hileary is the one to call!
