We have known Anna Klarck for the last couple of years now. A brief introduction in the parking lot that our then 7-8 year old daughter made :), has turned into a strong mutual relationship. Anna is a real nice realtor - super thorough and professional at her job, and a real nice and kind person at the same time. All through our home purchase experience, she has gotten to know us and our family, our needs and has provided solid guidance and counsel all through the process. We absolutely think that she is out there batting for us and our interests and is on "our side" - trying to make sure that she is fair in her dealings while maintaining our best interests in her mind. We recently closed on our new single family home after several months of looking at different properties. Anna has made herself available to us for discussion, showings, etc - all along the process, and never "pushed" us into buying anything. On the contrary, she would always make sure that we are taking into consideration all the facts from her experience/perspective (including the unfavorable ones) in making our decision. In fact, we walked away from a couple of homes as she brought things to our attention that we did not know previously. Once we identified the home, she provided us the facts that enabled us to get further comfort that we were making a good decision. She and her team were super helpful all the way through the close and beyond helping identify a great support team - Rania from her office is great; attorney suggestions; lender suggestions; home improvement suggestions, etc, etc. On a lighter note, she also plays part-time role as interior designer :) always making time to share her ideas for our home. We will at some point sell our current home - and Anna will be our realtor. And any future real estate opportunities we might have, she will also be our realtor. She believes in building a relationship for the long term and not for any quick wins - which in our mind is the absolute right way to do business in this space and we commend her approach. Thank you Anna!! Rashmi-Saachi-Vishesh read more

We chose Anna Klarck to be our realtor to sell our home and find our forever dream home for many reasons. From the moment we met Anna she brought positivity and high energy. She automatically started pointing out all the details of what made our home that we raised our 3 boys in for 8 years so special. She just knew that even though we were selling and wanted our dream home that our family home brought meaning and memories we will never forget. That was very important to us because she really valued our opinions and thoughts during the whole selling process and very easy to talk to while being a great listener. While valuing our memories, she came into our older home and saw the beauty that it provided and was honest about what needed to be done to get it on the market to sell. She saw the beauty of the home that future buyers would see and love while bringing in new ideas. Right away she was so confident and said she can sell our house very fast and was very confident in letting us know she will also help us find our dream home very fast. With that confidence, Anna was absolutely correct. We had many viewings and many offers on our home. We also found our dream home very fast and it was everything we wanted. We loved how Anna was so flexible during the whole selling and buying process. She was very helpful, always answered our questions through multiple ways of text, phone calls, and email and she did it quickly with accuracy. It meant a lot that she stayed in touch and contacted us asking how our dream home was and if there was anything we needed to please let her know. We have now referred Anna Klarck to many of our friends and family and people on social media asking for a realtor. They have also been very happy with their choice of having her as their realtor as they came back to thank us for such a great referral. read more

The best thing for me and my husband was answering the door one day and finding this beautiful lady and her partner on the other side introducing themselves as local Realtors. They not only impressed me with their respectful and friendly manner, although I was not 100% ready to sell my home. But, after the holidays, they not only stopped by again and to my surprise with a bottle of champagne and a wonderful Italian holiday bread, and I was very impressed, we chatted and made a date for them to come by and talk. I had other agent interviews, but Anna was not the same all business, we hit it off immediately, impressed with her professionalism as well as her marketing plan for our home. We decided to hire her and her partner and the rest is history. This was the best experience, they made it so easy for us, they took beautiful professional photos that highlighted our home, her professional brochures were beautifully done which helped us sell in 2 weeks and over our asking price, which was due to their fantastic negotiating. They responded to all my calls immediately to answer whatever questions or worries I may have had, never made me feel foolish for asking. Was quick to inform me of the feedback from the showings we had. Anna handled it all from start to finish, and everything went smoothly. Thanks to her, we are now living in Florida. I recommend Anna Klarck to anyone one who wants someone who will work tirelessly in your best interest, easy to work with, will always remember that she works for you, and that is my experience with Anna. She will always remain special to me, you will not be disappointed if you decide to give her the opportunity to help you with this very stressful time in your life. read more

My wife and I came to the difficult decision that now was the time to downsize from our wonderful home of 23 years. The maintenance and upkeep was becoming more than we felt we wanted to manage going forward. We needed a realtor. We did our research. Talked to friends, family, etc. Looked on line (like here). Anna's 5 star reviews and wonderful comments from her clients, helped us decide to give her a call to come to our home to meet with us. From that meeting, we decided she would be the best choice for us. She had all the qualities we needed in a real estate agent. She was knowledgeable, professional, and helpful. Anna genuinely cared for us, our home, and our best interest. She was always accessible and got back to us promptly when any concerns o questions arose. She honestly wanted no stress for us. She was always calm and decisive handling all situations. Her experience in the real estate market was top notch and her insight/instinct was amazing. And, even her sales brochures, the professional photos, the setting up of the home for showings, all these aspects that she brought with were terrific! Thanks to her, we had lots of interest and showings, multiple offers, and in a relatively short time we sold our wonderful home to another family that, we're sure, will love it as much as we have. It was hard to let it go, but she made the process easier for us. Anna was the best choice we could have made in selling our home!! Seriously, THE BEST CHOICE! Thank you Anna! read more

I am writing this review not after a successful purchase, but during my search for the right property. This is the highest compliment I can give Anna Klarck: her value is not in closing a deal, but in providing priceless counsel. In a world where the incentive is to make a sale, Anna operates by a different code. She values her integrity, principles, and professional ethics above all else. This means she gives the best possible advice, even when it's advice I may not want to hear. On multiple occasions, her expert analysis has steered me away from a bad investment, meaning she made no money for her time and effort. That selflessness is the very definition of a trusted advisor. With over 30 years of experience, her knowledge of the market is encyclopedic. Her insights and logical analysis are priceless assets. I trust her without reservation, more than anyone else in the industry. Furthermore, as a very deliberate and difficult client, I have tested her patience with endless emails, texts, and calls. Anna responds to every single one promptly and has never once shown a hint of impatience or frustration. Anna Klarck is the kind of professional all others should aspire to be. I trust her completely. Anna is a master of her craft and a genuinely good person. The world needs more Annas. read more

I am not one to embrace change. My husband finally convinced me that now was the time to downsize from our home filled with love where all three of our grown children were raised. We interviewed real estate agents who had sold many homes in our area, but made us feel like our home was "inadequate," 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, no basement, = this $ amount. We were asked to make many improvements and totally repaint to the modern "greige color," and ask $40,000 below our guesstimated price. We both sat stunned. Then we met Anna Klarck. From the instant we met her, she was a breath of fresh air! She had ALL of the qualities we wanted in a real estate agent: Knowledgeable. Friendly. Responsive. Professional. Helpful. She understood that our home met our needs until the time our children had grown and that another family existed who would love it as much as we did. Anna genuinely cared for us and our well-being.She was always accessible and got back to us promptly when questions arose. She wanted NO STRESS on us, she was always calm and decisive handling all situations. Her experience in the real estate market was top notch and her insight/instinct was second to none. Anna Klarck was the best choice we could have made in selling our beloved home (We also made a friend for life!) read more

Anna was referred to us by a friend who had used her for the purchase of their first townhome and then, for their long-term family home. We were so lucky to have her be our partner in this experience as first-time home buyers! Anna was not only just extremely responsive, punctual, and equip with the extensive knowledge she had gained through the years, but by the end of the experience, Anna had become a friend to us. Again, we were first-time homebuyers, and in our experience, were buying an 'as-is' home owned by a corporation and sometimes things got a little difficult. She was always there to not only take our calls and answer questions, but provide us with calming advice on how to push forward and get our first home and really, the home of our dreams. She very much provided us not only a service, but genuine care when it came to buying our home. Anna only cared about finding us the home that was right for us and would have taken us to a million homes if that's what it took. She referred us to multiple individuals (but was NOT offended if we also went with others)- and even still, we trust Anna's opinions and referrals even after the purchase of our home as we make upgrades and repairs. She is one of a kind and truly a special person. We were and are very lucky. read more

Anna Klarck is an amazing realtor with a great work ethic. Anna is a go getter, she is attentive, assertive and overall values her customers input. I had a hard time getting my home on the market due to overdue construction. Every time the construction boss gave me a deadline when the home would be complete, it kept getting extended because the construction boss was going through personal issues. Anna came to my home and helped where she could, once I contracted someone else to complete construction; Anna made it all happen in one day with short notice, the pictures and video of my home were online in 24 hours and my home sold in less than a week. Anna never made me feel that I inconvenienced her and it felt like I was her only client even though she had many. Anna made me feel like I was her top priority, I highly recommend Anna for her commitment to her clients and for selling homes over the asking price, thank you Anna! read more

Anna was one of the most organized and professional real estate agents I have ever met. She guided and coached us through the home selling process, from staging, pictures, assessments, to the closing and moving. Big difference - on our first meeting - Anna was prepared and ready to start selling our house. Anna has extensive experience in the Northwest suburbs and is a consistent top realtor each year. Anna can sell real estate!! In advance of our first meeting, she had completed a market assessment, understood our recent house investments, gave immediate feedback on staging, and understood our selling and buying needs. She was great at asking questions to understand our needs. Anna was extremely reliable, collaborative and had a "can do" attitude, through-out the whole process. I was confident in Anna selling my home. I highly recommend Anna! read more

Anna assisted us with selling and buying. She made the process very easy and all went very smoothly. Anna was there to answer all of my questions and was easily reachable. During the selling process, Anna gave us the market analysis and we were able to sell our home for top dollar. During the buying process, we were provided a very thorough report in regards to the property we were interested in before officially submitting an offer. Very satisfied with her work and so happy she was recommended to us. I've dealt with a few different realtors in the past in selling and buying but none of them were as good or as detailed as Anna. Highly recommend her to whoever looking for a detail oriented and experienced realtor. Hopefully she will still be in the same business when it comes time for us to sell and buy again. read more

Anna Klarck and the entire AK team are simply put - sublime. We used Anna to sell our condo and purchase our home this past October and it was easily the best decision we made in 2019. Anna was phenomenal. She was passionate, unbelievably knowledgeable, in constant communication with us, a total go-getter, 100% customer focused....I could go on. Anna and her team not only got us an amazing deal on our condo (in 24 hours!), but got us an even better deal on our house. She made sure we didn't overpay and helped us get from contract to close in 3 weeks. Don't bother going anywhere else, you found the diamond of real estate agents in AK Homes!! White glove, full service, 1:1 support from people who very clearly care about what they do. read more

Anna Klarck of AK Homes and her team are true real estate professionals! As a first time home seller, I listed with Anna after my initial meeting with her. Anna's enthusiasm and her attention to detail are nothing short of amazing! She did an outstanding job every step of the way and was always available to answer any questions we had. I can't stress this point enough when I say that Anna went over and above in her assisting us in the sale of our home! I truly appreciate everything she did for us! Anna is truly a First Class Real Estate Professional that you can depend on to be there for you! I would list again with Anna in a heartbeat!! Thank you again, Anna, Rania, and everybody at AK-Homes! GREAT Job!! read more

Anna was my realtor for a recent home sale. She was fantastic! She gave great advice on what work should be done to the home to get it ready for listing. She was very prompt in staging the interior, taking great looking photos, and getting the home listed. The listing was professional looking and generated several offers within two days. Her experience allowed her to advise me on how to get the potential buyers to raise their offer amount. Anna then walked me through the pros and cons of each offer, helping me select the best one. Anna is very prompt in communication - both sending me information and when responding to my questions. Choose Anna as your realtor - you will be very happy! read more

I can't thank Anna and Marcos enough for helping me get my home sold in the timeframe I needed. My For Sale by Owner contract had fallen through and they came to my rescue. Not only did I receive $14K more for my home, but the closing date ended up being the same closing date as my new home. I couldn't believe how quickly it all happened. They immediately came to my home once I called, and two days later, I was under contract with a buyer. They are a great team and I will recommend them to my friend who will also be selling soon. I am so thankful that Anna and Marcos came knocking on my door once they saw I was selling by owner. Thank you, thank you, thank you !!! read more

We can't say enough wonderful things about Anna! I wish we could give her more than 5 Stars! We bought our first home with her back in 2011 and now worked with her again to sell that home and upgrade to a new home. Through both the selling and buying processes she worked tirelessly for us to make sure we were 100% happy. You can tell how much she truly cares about her clients. She was readily available and enthusiastic for all of our phone calls, showings, and anything else we needed. We feel as though Anna became a part of our family throughout this process. We whole-heartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate professional! read more

Anna Klarck is an awesome Real Estate agent and an equally amazing person. She knows the ins and outs of the market but the quality that touched me the most is that she is a very honest person. For her the welfare of the client is paramount. She gets you the most worth, whether your are buying a property or selling yours. I contacted her after having a couple of bad experience and was skeptical at first. But the first meeting itself assured me that she knew what she was talking about and after that buying my first property was a breeze. Will definitely contact her whenever I have to buy or sell a property! read more

Anna helped us buy a home and sell a home. She was fantastic representing our interests as buyers. She creatively suggested virtual staging when it came to selling, minimizing disruption to our lives by being able to move out before listing, and not having to deal with open houses and showings with our pets. While it took longer than we had hoped based on market conditions, Anna found us a buyer and worked hard to complete the sale that was threatened to be derailed during the stay at home order in Illinois. We would not hesitate to recommend Anna! read more

It was great plesaure working with Anna. She helped me to buy our new home in United States and we were fortunate to have found Anna as our Realtor. I must say that I am very much impressed with her wide experience and real estate knowledge about the area. She took special care in going through all the pro and cons about each property. She made herself available whenever we needed. Anna was very helpful, often guiding us with details on houses that were sold nearby. I would highly recommend Anna to anyone looking to buy a house! Thanks again Anna. read more

Anna Klarck helped us to purchase our first home back from 10 years ago. As she was so good, we still remember her. As we need to sell our townhouse this time and so we look for her online and realize that she has achieved many awards during these years. It proofs that we remember her right. She does refresh our memories... genuine, enthusiastic, efficient & very professional. And, she has a good team to work for her, helping me in renovation with very good and practical advice. It was a pleasure to work with Anna. I would highly recommend her. read more
