We were not seriously looking to move. We started to just look around at what was for sale and came across a couple properties that we decided to look at. This is how we met Kathy. Kathy was outstanding and very knowlegeable in every aspect of the process. It was pure coincidence and we are very happy that we had the chance to meet and work with her. I would recommend anyone looking to buy or sell to call Kathy without any hesitation. 10/10

Katherine Rubis and Cathy Giordano did a great job. It went fairly quick, efficient, and professional. I was very satisfied in selling my home. I will mention to other people of using their services.

Kathy was wonderful to work with and help me for the first time buying a home. She actually messaged me about the home I ended up buying thinking it would be a great fit. Her knowledge helped make my offer competitive and I know without that input, I may have lost the property. I am so happy I worked with her, and I highly recommend.
I had a fantastic experience working with Kathy as my real estate broker. She was extremely helpful and demonstrated a deep knowledge of the market and the intricacies of the real estate process. Kathy's guidance and expertise were invaluable throughout the entire buying/selling process. She was always available to address any questions or concerns I had and went above and beyond to ensure a smooth transaction. I highly recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable real estate professional.

This testimonial is for Catherine Giordano:
Throughout my career, I have moved multiple times, both domestically and internationally, which has given me the opportunity to work with various realtors. Among them all, Catherine stands out as the most professional, competent, and caring realtor I have ever encountered. Catherine made the entire process seamless and stress-free, and her genuine concern for my needs was evident every step of the way. I highly recommend Catherine to anyone seeking an exceptional real estate experience.
Kathy and Cat were excellent in helping and considering the many expectations involved with the family member. It was comforting to know that they put our interests to the forefront in finding / suggesting homes
I used Katherine Rubis's services in 2018 to sell another property in historic downtown Naperville. The outcome was successful so I reached out to her for the current sale of our condo. She was very helpful in providing access to our condo to contractors as we live out of state and I was up front with her that we may decide to rent it again so a listing was not emminent. Ultimately, the decision was to sell and it sold/closed within 2 weeks with multiple offers. It was great to have Kathy have our back locally who knew the market and got things done. She also referred the atty too who was stellar and very helpful. I highly recommend Kathy for any real estate needs.

I'm an out of state relocation and Katherine kept me up to date on the houses available when I was planning my house hunting trip up to Chicagoland. The Monday I was supposed to fly out she reached out and told me the 4 properties that I was interested in went under contract that weekend - so I was able to postpone my flight. After that we did an online video tour of the house in which I was interested while I was still in ATL and I put an offer on it. She was very clear around the fact that the house would need painted, and new carpet and fans, etc. Closing had a hiccup - I accidently locked both of us out of the property while she was checking the mailbox key - but she creatively found a way to get me to the closing office while she waited for other realtor to bring the spare key and let her in to get my phone (and drivers license) and her purse/car keys, etc. and then meet me at the closing office. We ended up being able to close on December 29th. Katherine is a gem.

I couldn't have asked for a better realtor than Katherine Rubis. Her deep knowledge of the market, unwavering dedication, and exceptional communication skills made my house-buying journey a breeze. From understanding my preferences to negotiating the best deal, she went above and beyond at every step.
Grateful to have Kathleen on our side, she looked out for every possibility and covered all aspects from hunt to close!!
Kathy really made this process so smooth for us. She found our home out of budget, but gave us information that lead us to win and under bid asking price! Even though, we were buying in a very scarce market. If she didn't do the additional research, we wouldn't have found our beautiful home because it was slightly passed our maximum budget and we were able to bid on the home and capture it 20k under original asking price. She mentioned to write a letter which was a huge turning point for us to capture the home.
We had to purchase a home remotely, which may be very uncommon. We were 1000 miles away scheduled and did virtual tours. Kathy was very honest on everything she noticed and gave us the honest feedback we needed to hear!
Our previous realtor was a friend of mine who pushed us out of our ideas. She was available, but too opinionated. Her guidance was set on her ideas and expectations and not OUR expectations. Also, she didn't send us house references. We had to do searching online all on our own.

Kathy has been excellent and very communicative throughout the process. I would highly recommend her as your realtor. Her experience in the Joliet area and knowledge of the market gave me a great deal of confidence from start to finish.
