It was very difficult at first to locate a place because my son is disabled and I needed a building with an elevator in a certain area. I contacted Caryn and Dave at Apartment Solutions in Naperville, Illinois. They stepped up immediately and fought so hard for me. I cannot say enough good things about this team! Dave really pushed incredibly hard to make sure everything went through. Thanks to their absolute dedication, they came through in less than two weeks with a beautiful 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental complete with elevator and garage parking. If you need a team that will truly go to bat for you when the pressure is on or you are looking for a team to help you find housing with dedication to your specific needs, look no further than Apartment Solutions! You guys are truly Awesome!!! Linda Young

You buy a property, gut it, and less than a month later (without renos mind you) you put it up for sale $250k more than your purchase price. Make it make sense. The most you should ask for is the purchase price you paid plus demo price. Whoever your agent is in charge of that property is also difficult to work with. He doesn't let anyone get a word out to have a normal human being conversation. Won't go near your agency with a 10 ft pole.

Wanted to look at an house and received the following message from the Realtor at John Greene…read more There is an up front fee of $50 to setup the viewing of the house, and a 3.5% buyers commission (non negotiable if you put in an offer) that a contract must be signed prior to viewing the house. While I understand the laws have changed around buyers commission and sellers commission fee, the percentage requested up front is more than the average commission received by sellers today... usually it's 6% total (buyer/seller) and 1% goes to the sellers company, and selling realtor gets 2.5% to 3.0% and buying realtor gets 2.0% to 2.5%. Even then everything should be negotiable between the buyer/seller which is what the law was changed to mean.. Would not recommend anyone deal with Amanda from John greene Realtor.

We had recommendations for several realtors from neighbors and friends, but Barbara impressed us with her answers, and ultimately we are very glad we went with her! Not just for the insight and experience she brought (for example, when we were crafting an offer), but also her relationships with other realtors, and also the excellent recommendations she supplied for various vendors (attorney, mortgage broker, movers, inspectors; in the case of the movers; they get so much business from her that they gave us a discount!) Home buying and selling is generally a stressful experience, but with Barbara's experience and advising it was as smooth as possible. We have already recommended her to others!

Selling in the luxury market requires more than data. It demands precision, expertise, and a team…read morewith the credibility and presence that commands respect at every stage of the process. We interviewed three realtors before making our decision. The data pointed us toward The Alice Chin Team, but what sealed it was a simpler question: who would I take into a boardroom or a high-stakes negotiation? The answer was Alice and Jim, without hesitation. Every step of the process was polished, seamless, and refreshingly honest. They brought professionalism and genuine warmth to what can be a stressful journey, and we had a lot of fun along the way. We achieved both our price and time goals, a result we are incredibly proud of, and one that came from the right preparation, the right positioning, and a team driven by excellence behind us. And then there's Jim. Jim is one of those rare people who makes every room better the moment he walks in. Charismatic, warm, and genuinely fun to be around, he's the kind of person you find yourself wanting to call just to talk. But don't let the warmth fool you. Jim is also one of the most honest professionals I've worked with. No spin, no games, just straight talk and a relentless commitment to doing right by his clients. He went above and beyond at every turn, anticipating needs before we even articulated them. If you are lucky enough to work with Jim, you will understand immediately why people who work with him once never go anywhere else. If you want a luxury experience to sell your luxury home, this is your team.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I have worked with Kevin Dahm on multiple real estate transactions, including the recent purchase…read moreof our primary residence, and I can confidently say he is the most outstanding realtor I know. Kevin is a top-notch professional who simply knows real estate better than anyone else. His knowledge of local markets, negotiation tactics, and contractual details is unparalleled. He is also extremely responsive and well organized, which makes navigating the complexities of buying or selling seamless. One of Kevin's greatest strengths is his dedication to his clients' best interests. He does not treat clients or deals in a transactional way. Instead, he invests his time and expertise to ensure you make the right long-term decision. This means he does not shy away from voicing his honest opinions of home features and/or concerns, which is invaluable when touring properties. Whether you are a new home buyer trying to understand the basics or an experienced buyer needing sophisticated guidance, Kevin is the expert you need in your corner. I highly recommend him for any real estate need!

After our parents passed, my brother and I kept the home/house we grew up in as a rental. When it…read morecame time to sell it, our vision was clouded by history and preferences of retired guys. For us it was a home & not a building. Marco helped us choose a decorating scheme that attracted contemporary buyers and suggested a way to stage the living room that we couldn't have dreamed of. After the prep, he had 2 offers after 7 showings. One of them was full price and "as is". Marco helped with negotiations after the village's pre-sale inspection came back with requirements that would be found in new construction and were not common when the home was built in 1950. The house was listed after Labor Day and closed at the end of October. I recommend Marco as a realtor and would not look anywhere else.
