“Shawn came highly recommend and did not disappoint. He has been on the ball and on my side from begining to end. His local knowledge was invaluable as a buyer moving from out of state and his follow through with vetted vendors for after the purchase smoothed the transition. Shawn Jones is a man of his word and goes above and beyond.”
“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!”
“Brittany was the best agent anyone can ask for always very informative and guided me threw all the steps as a first time home buyer I can not say enough about how amazing/professional she was as a first time home buyer i would recommend her to anyone who really wants someone to be in your corner on getting the perfect house that best suits your interest i found a home perfect for my family and it was all thanks to Brittany absolutely amazing 10/10”
“I can’t recommend Emir highly enough! From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. He truly had my best interests at heart and made the entire buying process smooth and stress-free. His attention to detail and dedication went above and beyond. If you’re looking for someone who knows the market and actually cares about their clients, Emir is the one!”
“Exceptional professional and person. Meldina was so kind and supportive through the entire process of buying my first commercial purchase.”
“Laura Topp was recommended by a trusted friend, a friend whom I will trust even more after this experience. Laura is extremely knowledgeable, personable and very well connected in the real estate market. Laura and her team (including Becki, also very involved in my sale and purchase) went over and above to insure my then-current home was sold in a timely manner (it was a matter of days, in fact) and for the best possible price! As for my purchase, Laura connected me with not only public but also private listings, and I also found/ contracted for my new dream home within days. In addition to her knowledge, expertise and connections, Laura is also one of the kindest people have ever met; she made me feel valued and supported throughout this entire process. I would recommend Laura and her team in a heartbeat (I already have) and although I was not previously aware of BHHS, this company also has high ratings in my book because of Laura and Becki.”
“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!”
“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 was more than a Real Estate Agent. He was more like a Family Friend. I am truly blessed and grateful to have worked with him. My home is everything I imagined it would be.”
“Ramon Gomez was very kind and patient. He made himself available at all times throughout the process, making communication a breeze.”

Lakeview East offers residents a vibrant mix of lively nightlife, diverse dining options, and charming local shops, creating a dynamic and inviting community atmosphere.
Lakeview East delivers lakefront living with city energy, minutes from Chicago’s downtown and neighboring Wrigleyville and Lincoln Park. Classic greystones and high-rises frame Broadway, Clark, and Belmont, where independent boutiques, cafés, and late-night eateries hum year-round. Weekend routines often start along the shoreline—bike or jog the Lakefront Trail, watch sailboats at Belmont Harbor, or tee off at Sydney R. Marovitz Golf Course with sweeping views of the water and skyline.
Culture thrives on intimate stages in the Belmont Theater District, while the Lakeview East Chamber of Commerce keeps a robust calendar of neighborhood events, sidewalk sales, and dining promotions. Getting around is straightforward: the CTA’s Red, Brown, and Purple lines and multiple bus routes (CTA) put much of the city within quick reach.
Families appreciate strong neighborhood schools. The Nettelhorst School anchors elementary education with arts-forward programming and active parent engagement, and Lake View High School extends opportunities with career pathways, STEM offerings, and competitive athletics. Parks, playgrounds, and dog-friendly spots woven throughout make everyday errands and fresh-air breaks effortless.
Whether you’re eyeing a vintage walk-up, a full-amenity high-rise, or something in between, Lakeview East balances convenience, culture, and the lakefront in equal measure. Ready to make a move?
