“Kim is the best. I shared with her that I had to sell my family members home and that I had 0 experience with realty or selling a home. She made everything so easy. The sale happened within days and I had no issues. She was there to help in a stressful time for me. I highly recommend.”
“John was a great Realtor many years of experience definitely knows his market. John is definitely one of the people that will get to know his sellers his clients and every time that I had any issues John always answered within an hour sometimes within minutes the funny thing is is that one day out of the blue John contacted me Wanting to know if I wanted to sell my house and I said you know I've been thinking about it cause I had a tenant in there and I have some severe medical problems and John waited and waited and waited through all the endless phone calls and follow ups. He ended up getting my business because he was patient. He waited and it took over a year of us working together to get my house on the market and it's sold in two weeks. I cannot say enough good things about John, but I do thank him for his patience and his understanding with my personal issue and I promised if he didn't give up on me, he would get the business and he got it!”
“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”
“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!”
“Jeff held the fort down while I was away for 3 weeks, during which time we had repairs done and had the house professionally cleaned. He was totally trustworthy. I cannot think of a better real estate agent.”
“Heather was a dream to work with in our home buying journey. She was very responsive, patient, and understanding of all of our needs when it came to what we wanted in a home. Her great personality and good sense of humor made her a pleasure to be around. Her knowledge and recommendations made our process smooth and painless. My wife and I highly recommend considering Heather all of your real estate needs.”
“We live in Florida and were wanting a second home in the Plainfield, Illinois area. We were not seeing too many places that were available. She showed us a few places in January online but they didn't work out for us. Since she knew what we were looking for, a condo went on the market that she thought we would be interested in. We happened to be in the Chicago area in March so we investigated the condo and sure enough we liked it and made an offer, and subsequently purchased. We were lucky that she remembered what we were looking for, and are so grateful to her for that, We also appreciated that she was not high pressure and that would have been an immediate turnoff for us. She was very helpful throughout the whole process and we would recommend her highly. Thanks again Kathy!”
“Steve is amazing! This sale was not easy, the contracted buyers were difficult but Steve negotiated for us, put us first, advocated for us, and he always presented all information. He is an agent who cares deeply about his clients and he is always working for the client not his wallet. I would refer and recommend Steve to anyone! He's absolutely amazing!”
“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 hard worker and knowledgeable in realestate”
“I have worked with Kim for over 14 years. Kim helped me find my first rental property when I first moved to Illinois and when it was time to find something else, she helped me find the next one. when I decided it was time to buy she helped me find the perfect place. She has always been extremely helpful and has gone above and beyond. She was always available for my texts or my calls. Kim explained so many of the details of the entire process for me with all the new rules and regulations that have occurred overtime. She helped me to get the very best offer on my home. In fact, I had multiple offers of which to choose from. Kim was very helpful and I wish that she could help me in the state that I moved to, to help me find a new home. I'm sad to leave her behind in Illinois. I highly recommend Kim Thurm to anyone looking for a real estate broker. Kim is an excellent realtor and great to work with.”
