“What a pleasure working with this amazing professional. She was always available in a moments notice, made the buying and selling experience seamless, stress free, and enjoyable! I highly recommend her and will most certainly be using her again!”
“Working with Meldina Dervisevic as my listing broker for the sale of 2422 B in Chicago was an outstanding experience. From the very beginning, Meldina provided clear guidance, strong market knowledge, and a professional approach that made the entire selling process smooth and stress-free. She created a strong marketing plan, brought in qualified buyers quickly, and kept me fully informed at every step. Her communication was excellent—prompt, consistent, and always focused on protecting my best interests as the seller. Meldina handled negotiations, inspections, and closing details with confidence and expertise, ensuring everything stayed on track. I truly appreciated her dedication, her energy, and her commitment to getting the best possible results. Thanks to her hard work, the sale went successfully and without complications. If you’re looking for a highly skilled, reliable, and experienced Chicago real estate broker, She exceeded my expect”
“I interviewed / researched several buy side realtors before listing my home. I was confident the home would sell quickly as I had spent an extensive amount of time and effort updating the home to current day standards including all finishings, landscape and hardscape. Complicating this sale was my desire to have the home ready for listing on the MLS when I was ready which, in this case, was off season during the winter. Kim worked with me, over several months, to take listing photos in advance and stay on top of local market trends such that I was able to list and sell the home within 1 week at what I believe was the appropriate closing price. Her estimate of final proceeds post sale was very accurate and for that reason I was able to research new homes to relocate to with a reliable purchase budget. Best of all, the listing-showing-closing process went off without a problem and no drama. Highly recommend Kim for anyone going forward.”
“Emir has always been a pleasure to work with. He has helped me by and sale property previously and I was confident he would help me find my new home. He was very communicative and reachable when requesting showings and negotiating pricing. I strongly recommend him to my friends and family. Thank you for all you did for me Emir!”
“Very great guy to work with. Will defintely work with him in the future and reccomend people that i know, to him.”
“John was very professional and very helpful in answering any questions we had in the sale of our home. Thank you John”
“Miguel was amazing 10/10 definitely recommend! He is very knowledgeable and super attentive, he really made this first time home buying process very smooth and the best of all is that he was very understanding.”
“Cinny helped us sell and buy a condo at the same time and the whole experience was so smooth. From helping us list our place, going to showings with us, and answering all our concerns, I don’t know how she did it all but she was there for us. We were able to do both the selling and buying within 3 months which still amazes me how quick and easy she made this process. She was proactive in finding places and booking showings that work around our schedule. And what I really love is how well she understood what my partner and I were looking for in a home. We ended up buying the place she had suggested for us. Originally this place was not on our radar but she highly recommended us to check it out and we’re so glad we did. We’re so happy with new home and this could not have been done without Cinny!”
“Juan helped us immensely in buying our first home and answered every question we had. Would 100% recommend.”
“Paula helped us every step of the way when we purchased our first home. I would recommend her to everyone. She always made time to answer our questions and explain the process. She's simply the best!”
“Antonio was always available for questions and always prompt in his replies. An ecellent experience.”
“I had an amazing experience working with Erick when purchasing my new home. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and offered valuable insights into the housing market. Erick was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and responsive, answering all my questions and guiding me through every step of the process. The process of finding the perfect home can be overwhelming, but Erick made it seamless. He was always available to schedule viewings at my convenience, and when we found the right place, he worked tirelessly to ensure my offer was competitive and that all the paperwork was handled efficiently. Thanks to Erick, I now own a home that I absolutely love. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated and professional real estate agent.”
“The referral of Mike Frank was the best decision we made! Mike Frank is detailed, thorough, responsive and a joy to work with. He went above and beyond to deliver us the kind of customer service we could only have hoped and imagined. Results and not excuses! Thank you for this referral!”
“Marc was a crucial part of our home buying process and we are grateful we chose him. He was there every single step of the way from start to finish and went above our expections in many ways. He is great in his craft and we would use him again without a doubt.”
“Working with James was a terrific experience. He is most knowledgeable and realistic when evaluating real estate. He always kept me informed and had timely calls regarding our next decisions. I recommend him most highly.”
“Larry is by far the most AMAZING Realtor. He was always very responsive to my calls, texts, request, etc. We built up such a great relationship through this crazy process, that even after we closed on our new home, he reached out to check on us. He is always looking to get the best deal for his clients. He is like family now to us and will always have his own seat next to the firepit in our backyard. I would DEFINETLY recommend Larry to anyone and everyone looking to buy or sell. AMAZING.. Can't say enough Great things about Larry.”
“Linda DeMarco did a great job she’s kind and helpful”
“Easily one of the best realtors, he was extremely friendly didn’t rush us for houses tours. He also showed my family and me plenty of houses on the market for months.”
“Jo Ceglarek was recommended to us by a friend who lives in Jefferson Park. Our hope was to stay in the area but select a real estate agent with extensive knowledge of the area and public schools as we have a 2.5 year old. Her guidance and expertise were invaluable and made the process so smooth. Jo was quick and responsive to our needs and worked around our crazy work schedules. She made this whole process much more enjoyable. Thank you! Jo was wonderful to work with and patient when we had to bring our little one to a couple showings!”
