Kelly Watson was an absolute joy to work with. Buying a home is an exhausting experience that was made so much easier by her efforts. Kelly was knowledgeable, honest, diligent, timely, and always available. We couldn’t have been happier with her service.

Katherine Rubis has provided an excellent service during the entire process of purchasing my new home. I would like to honestly say thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your help during this stressful time. Katherine has been patient with me. She is very efficient, and answered my questions in minutes. In no time and no stress on me, you found me the perfect home to start a new adventure. Thank you again for everything, Katherine.

Moving 2000 miles across the country and relying on your agent to guide you through the process is a lot to manage, especially with multiple clients at once. Katherine was super helpful and very accessible for us when we arranged our 4 day look and see visit. Katherine and her partner Kelly arraigned and were with us for over 30 homes showings. That kind of time given to us was beyond expectations and really made us feel comfortable in choosing our new home. Its a shame you only need a great realtor when buying and selling a home when you feel like they become such a good friend!

Katherine has been amazing to work with. I have sold other properties in Illinois and never had the service I've experienced with her. Her communication with us was amazing and that is not easy to find. I will recommend her to anyone and everyone that asks about a realtor in Illinois!!! Thank you Kathy for everything!!

Kathy and her partners did an outstanding job in helping me find a new home. They took the time to learn and understand my particular needs and helped me to adjust my search to better accomplish my goals. Kelly Watson was the partner who I worked with more toward the end and she was the one who helped me find and negotiate the purchase of my home. Both her and Kathy maintained excellent communication with me throughout the search and buying process. I highly recommend them and when the time comes will look forward to working with them again.
