Laura and her team are all True professionals! She came in with a well informed marketing plan, has great connections in the Chicago Real Estate market and was a joy to work with. This was a complex situation and Laura (& team) handled it perfectly.

Laura was an incredible agent. She went above and beyond to understand exactly what we were looking for in our forever home. She was extremely professional and took the time to show us many places until we found the perfect place. This was our first time buying a house and Laura make us feel comfortable, and guided us through the whole process. It was great to know that we had someone on our side who we could trust. She also helped us sell our condo. She gave us great advice and we sold our condo quickly and easily. The process of buying and selling can be very stressful but Laura and her team made it seamless and stress free. I would use her again in a heartbeat and recommend her to all my friends and family.

About a year ago, I received a letter in my mailbox from Laura Topp that she recently sold a home in my neighborhood. I thought it was good marketing, and held onto the letter. When I was ready to sell I contacted her and she promptly responded. My home was on the market in mid-Jan 2018. Three showings a day, and within three weeks I had a buyer! I highly recommend Laura and her co-agent Patrick Shipp - both very knowledgeable, persistent, always available and kept me apprised of daily activities. I have an extremely busy schedule and they did everything for me so I was never inconvenienced!

Laura Topp is a very strong realtor who really knows her industry. She sold my neighbor's property, and even though I never met her, I knew that she was familiar with the uniqueness of my building, and my neighborhood. I interviewed 3 other realtors and Laura came to our interview positive, energetic, and genuine. Her technique of combining technology and first class photography sold the property 2 days before the open house, in a bidding war, for over the asking price! She was there for me all the way thru the process. I have sold 4 other homes in my life, and she was my best realtor by far. Her team in the office and the lawyer she recommended to handle the legal details were top notch as well. A big thank you!

My husband and I have now bought 2 properties and sold 1 property with Laura. Each of these experiences has been outstanding and we would trust no one more with our home buying and selling than Laura and her team. We have recommended her to many other friends and family members who have all given her glowing reviews as well.

Laura is unique in that she is extremely professional and efficient, outstanding at what she does, but also personally she is open, honest, trustworthy and always looks out for her clients best interest. Working with Laura and her team is the perfect combination of professional expertise and personal attentiveness and concern.

We would, and do, recommend Laura to anyone buying or selling a home!

Laura Mitrick was our advocate. She was warm and welcoming from start to finish. She has an absolute commanding knowledge of the market and was an incredible resource throughout the process. My wife and I couldn't be happy and are grateful for her support along the way.

My husband and I worked with Laura to find our current place and were extremely happy with Laura the first time around. Our friends have also worked with her and were extremely happy with her as well. We didn't consider anyone else when looking for our new home and will use Laura to sell our current place in the near future as well.

Laura did a flawless job throughout the entire process. We always felt she was looking out for us and our best interests as a family.

We have worked with realtors previously who we felt were just out to make a sale and make money - we always feel Laura looks out for the interests of her clients and is successful as a result. Refreshing realtor to work with to be sure.

I found my broker, Laura Topp by chance, when passively inquiring on a property I found listed on Zillow or Redfin. I was actually already working with a different broker at the time, but when I reached out to Laura, she seemed far more knowledgeable and experienced than the former broker. I immediately started working only with Laura.

Laura is "Topps" in my book. She and I built quite a good relationship during my search. Laura understood that I was a new home buyer and was very patient with all my questions and concerns. She was so accessible and took a lot of time and consideration in helping me find just the right home. I will highly recommend her to all of my friends/family.

When I was working with Laura, I knew I was in good hands. She is the best in the business!
