“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Remm was always available if I had questions. She kept me updated every step.”
“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.”

Near North Side offers residents a vibrant, walkable mix of world-class dining and shopping, green spaces and lakefront access, rich cultural venues, diverse housing options, and convenient transit to downtown.
Near North Side balances big-city spectacle with everyday ease, set between Lake Michigan’s shoreline and the Chicago River. Within its borders, River North, Gold Coast, and Streeterville each bring distinct character—gallery blocks and buzzy dining, leafy streets with classic architecture, and gleaming towers steps from the water. Shoppers and food lovers gravitate to The Magnificent Mile, while lake breezes, fireworks, and the Centennial Wheel make Navy Pier a magnetic weekend standby.
Culture thrives here, from rotating exhibitions at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago to alfresco days at Oak Street Beach. Daily life is unusually walkable: grocery runs, fitness studios, riverfront strolls, and after-work meetups are all an elevator ride away. Commuters appreciate plentiful transit options and quick connections throughout the city, and visitors have their pick of hotels and entertainment without sacrificing residential calm on tree-lined side streets.
Schools are a standout, with the International Baccalaureate pathway at the Ogden International School of Chicago and top-ranked Walter Payton College Prep drawing families who want academic rigor close to home. Housing spans glassy high-rises with amenities, vintage walk-ups, and elegant co-ops, offering options for first-time buyers and seasoned homeowners alike.
