James Salazar offered us specific advice in preparing our home for sale, including painting neutral colors and using a staging service. As we made those preparations, James listed our home on the private listing network and set a Saturday date for the first showings. We received four offers within a few days and accepted an offer with few contingencies at a price 9% above listing. Closing was fast and painless. When we used James as our agent when buying, we found his advice supportive, professional and insightful. In our first experience with him as sellers, we enjoyed the same professionalism and sound advice.

We actually had a very difficult time finding a real estate agent who was responsive and understood our needs. James had these qualities in spades. He is knowledgeable of the area and was very patient with us in our home search, particularly during a difficult market. We moved from out of state, and it was comforting to have someone who was well versed in the nuances of the Illinois-specific real estate transactions. I would recommend James for your buying or selling needs.

James Salazar gave us timely and expert professional help during many years of searching for the right next place for us to live. We dragged him from condo units in River Forest to a cooperative building in Evanston and to a variety of single-family homes in Oak Park and River Forest. Every time we apologized for wasting his time going down dead ends, he reiterated that he is glad to show us any property. One of the most valuable services he has offered is to help us ask the right questions in imagining what it would be like to live in a particular building. We’ve always felt that he looks out for our best interest. Once we selected a property, he guided us through price negotiations with skill and supported us throughout the process from sales contract through closing. He has connected us with legal and other professional service providers who have all been top notch. We’ve recently closed on our long-awaited next home, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the professional help James gave us. We look forward to listing our current home with him and anticipate that the same professional expertise he have us as Buyers will translate to his skill in representing us as Sellers.

James did a great job recommending the listing price. In addition, he has a network of local contractors that helped me prep the house for sale and do various jobs post inspection.
I would highly recommend James.

James has been our real estate agent for over a decade. In that time we have purchased two properties and sold one. James is knowledgeable, patient, and great at what he does. James brings quality, integrity. and experience to the table. I highly recommend him as we will not work with anyone else but him.
