“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.”
“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”
“Juan helped us immensely in buying our first home and answered every question we had. Would 100% recommend.”
“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 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.”

Near South Side. From skyline to shoreline, this neighborhood delivers some of Chicago’s most iconic experiences. Weekends can swing from dinosaur encounters at the Field Museum and aquatic wonders at the Shedd Aquarium, to stargazing at the Adler Planetarium and game days under the colonnades at Soldier Field.

Daily life feels easy here. Conventions and concerts at McCormick Place and Wintrust Arena energize the area without overwhelming it, while Motor Row’s historic auto palaces now host eateries and taprooms.
