I worked with Rebecca Conant and she is absolutely what made this a success for me. Without her knowledge, patience, and diligence we would have never found and secured this property. I will be 100% looking to work with Rebecca again in the future.

We were very happy with Laura when we purchased our condo so it was an easy decision to ask her to rep us for the sale of the condo 9 years later. She and her team did not disappoint. Always accessible and always with experienced adivice. We highly recommend Laura and her team.

Laura Topp is a professional. She is congenial and helpful as is her team. Please remember that this is a monetary arrangement, not a get together or a party. She is lovely but she will definitely deliver the goods with truth and with a deserved sale for you.

We are so grateful for Laura! She quickly understood that we were focused on finding the right place for us, and not necessarily focused on the neighborhood it was in. Laura reached out when there were properties she found interesting and set up appointments within windows that worked for us. She also paid attention to our needs, bringing up key considerations everywhere we went. If it were not for her ability to act quickly, have relationships with other realtors, and build a strong offer, we likely would not be in our home today.

Thank you, Laura!

I appreciate and commend the manner in which Becki Conant and Laura Topp handled the whole process professionally, confidently and with seamless ease. During the process I worked more hands on with Becki. She was exceptionally knowledgable, confident, assertive, but not aggressive, and displayed good humor when appropriate. I also appreciated the communication; keeping me up to date at every stage. At the end of it all, you managed to strike a good deal and get a good price for the property within a matter of days.
Thank you very much. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend both Becki and Laura to other sellers.

I worked with Becki and she was absolutlety amazing. I had a really tight budget for a 3 bedroom so that me and my kids would each have our own space. I also had crazy location requirements as I need to commute far and my daughter takes a bus to school and I also need to be able to get my son from a school in a totally different part of the city. When the perfect place finally came up, I wasn't in town so Becki set up a zoom call to tour the place with me. She walked me through everything and was patient as I thought walked all the steps. She made sure I got the condo docs and other materials in a timely manner so that I could make a sound decision. Becki is an absolutley amazing realator. She loves looking at places and is passionate about her job. That makes it fun to go look at places and see her vision for spaces.

What I needed was a highly experienced team to sell my townhouse. A friend highly recommended Laura to me. After meeting her and Becky I was happy to sign on with her. The recommendations of staging the property, while time consuming, was instrumental in the final stages to publish the property online with an excellent result. Namely a sale above the asking price in 3 days.
Laura and Becky were instrumental in purchasing my new property as well. They sent me many sites listed that met my general requirements to consider. The final choice was a property that I fell for the minute I saw it, but unfortunately went under contract before I sold my home. It kept showing online, so I asked Laura to see if it was available. She checked and informed me that it was not available and closing shortly. But that deal fell through at the last minute and the other broker called Laura to see if I was still interested. The rest is history.
As a friend did for me, I will recommend Laura also.

Laura Topp and her team were our partners and guides throughout the process of the sale of our condo. I felt Laura had our best interests at heart all through. I was abroad throughout the sale process and Laura and her team handled every detail and things went smoothly. Would recommend her highly.

Laura is on TOPP of her game.

Professional, responsive, polite and etc. The inspector missed some major construction issues of the building and we found out on the final walkthrough day. She was able to skillfully navigate through many rough obstacles in a very limited time and successfully accomplished to the closing.

She also holds high ethics, not solely pursuing to monetary benefit. It was evidenced by how she managed my second earnest money for her client's best benefit.

I wholeheartedly trust this lady and will definitely recommend her.

Laura went the extra mile with me and my family. Complete patience with us, as we were new to Chicago, exceptional knowledge of the local areas.

Laura is a wonderful person to spent time with too. We couldn't have found our ideal house without her. There was not a showing she would not arrange for us at the drop of a hat.

Her flexibility allowed us to feel no pressure in the select of the purchase of our house.

I have had a few sales with Laura and consider her a friend. She goes above and beyond to help make the sale. She helped me out
tremendously with little and big issues since I live in another state than my property listed. She uses whatever resources available
to get the property noticed. Thank you Laura!

My suburban BH broker contacted Laura after doing her own research on brokers in the area, and said Laura would be the best fit for me in the area where my condo was located. Laura was absolutely amazing, and unbelievably patient during a truly crazy ordeal of a selling process. I cannot thank or recommend her enough.

Laura was so very calm in a very trying time, and dealt well with me as a frazzled seller as well as VERY difficult buyers and an incredibly sensitive situation. She was just wonderful and took an amazing weight off my shoulders in getting my condo sold.
