“All I can say is sign with Kim today! She sold two of our homes successfully (October, 2008 and February, 2026); both contracts were signed within one week, which was exceptional. Kim knows her trade inside and out, and you can trust her to be the much-needed expert to guide you through this important process. She was great when it came to answering questions promptly, providing recommendations/options, having great business partners to work with, and ultimately getting the job done. Highly recommend!!”
“Heather was wonderful from start to finish! She was very knowledgeable of the area and competing properties. She set realistic goals including the price that she could sell the home for. She staged the property wonderfully to maximize it's appeal. She was very systematic and level headed in contract negotiations. Bottom line is, we were so pleased that she got this property sold in January for 96% of the list price! Thanks Heather!”
““Working with Meldina Dervisevic to sell our single-family home in Wheeling was an excellent experience from start to finish. Her market knowledge, pricing strategy, and attention to detail helped us attract the right buyer quickly and confidently. Meldina guided us through every step of the process, communicated clearly, and handled negotiations with professionalism and care. Thanks to her expertise, our home sold smoothly and with great results. We highly recommend Meldina to anyone looking to sell their home.””
“Great to work with in all respects, from start to finish!”
“Working with Kim was absolutely fantastic! From the very beginning, she demonstrated professionalism, market expertise, and genuine care for my family's needs. My home needed several upgrades before listing, and Kim went above and beyond by helping me find reliable contractors and even helping manage the process to ensure everything was done on time and within budget. Thanks to her hard work, guidance, and excellent staging, my home received an offer on the very first day it was shown! Selling and moving can be intimidating, but Kim was like a fairy god-mother: always accessible and full of calming advice. If you’re looking for a realtor who truly goes the extra mile, I highly recommend Kimberly Thurm.”
“Vicky helped with all aspects of the sale. She helped guide us with prepping the property for photos, gave an analysis of surrounding properties in the area, answered all our questions, and communicated with us regularly during the process of the sale.”
“Working with Robert was a pleasure. He was very transparent, thorough, professional and down to Earth. He works with you, not just for you. He gives great advice when an issue arises. Should I ever have another property to sell he would be my first call.”
“Dayana es muy profesional, conocedora del tema, honesta y excelente negociadora de los términos y del contrato para la compra de la casa. Nos sentimos muy complacidos y confiados durante todo el proceso. Definitivamente la recomendaría.”
“Kathryn went above and beyond. She worked the selling of the home while we were out of the country even. She was the perfect fit for us as an agent.”
“Katie Arensdorf was a delight. She was knowledgeable, caring and attentive. Katie immediately researched our property and appropriate comparable homes. Her recommendations were helpful, targeted and well thought out. She was engaged throughout the process and delivered exceptional results.”
“Thank you Tina it was a pleasure working with you”
“Barb provided exceptional service throughout my home-buying experience. She demonstrated professionalism, clear communication, and a genuine commitment to ensuring a smooth process from start to finish. I am grateful for her guidance and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and reliable real estate agent.”
“Nancy Silwa is an experienced realtor who knows her profession. She knows, and in fact lives in the area, where I was selling my house. This was a bonus as she really had a handle on the market. She walked with me every step of the way so that I understood the process. I was selling a home I had lived in for 43 years. Nancy understood the emotional impact of this decision and gently helped me stay focused on the task at hand: sell the house. She found the perfect buyers. A young couple who will make my house their home. Knowing this made selling my home a little easier. I would and indeed have recommended Nancy to others. She is simply THE BEST!”

“Rose was amazing to work with. She answered all of my questions promptly and was very attentive.”
“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.”
“Very friendly and approachable person. Very easy to work with. Was really invested in the process and treated us with respect. I don't feel like just another client when working with her.”
“This is our second home purchase/sale with Meghan Jacobs. In each transaction, Meghan was highly professional and engaged in each step of the process. She is highly motiivated to make the process smooth and as as stress-free as possilbe, which is something I really appreciated. Overall, Meghan is a highly-qualified professional and capable individual and someone we will be using in the future if needed. I strongly recommend her services to anyone interested in purchasing a new home or selling an existing home.”
