My husband and I worked with Matt's team to sell our South Loop condo. Matt himself came to see our…read moreproperty for the initial meeting and we had a great impression of his expertise in the Chicago real estate market. From start to finish, his team is very professional and incredibly well organized. We were kept up to date for each showing and provided with immediate feedback. Matt also has a list of preferred partners such as attorneys that we used and had a great experience with.

Gail Spreen was an absolute pleasure to work with. At the start, she gave sound advice as to how to…read moreproperly stage our condo so it looked the best. She told us what furniture to move to storage and what to leave out. She even gave us advice on paint colors that would most appeal to a wide range of buyers. When the unit was on the market, she was wonderful. Printed materials looked great, and she was a real advocate for us in pointing out the favorable features of the unit. It is a tough market right now, and when we got a bit down, she managed to keep our spirits up. When we received offers, her advice as to how to respond and how to counter was exceptional. We are thrilled to have worked with her on the sale.

Between knowing the listing agents when I was looking and the buyer's agent when I was selling, negotiations and closings were a breeze. I will not work with another realtor again!

Beth is the best! My husband and I worked with her just over five years ago to buy a condo…read moredowntown, and when we decided we wanted more space, she was the first person we reached out to. She came over to our condo to advise us on any pre-listing updates and review the upgrades we had made, sharing details on the current state of the market while we reviewed what we we were looking for. It took us about 5 months to find a house that we wanted to make an offer on, and during this time Beth was always available to answer questions, set up walk throughs, advise us and help us through the process of getting our new home under contract while listing the condo we owned. We ended up selling the condo for more than we listed at, thanks to the great photos, listing/networking and open houses that Beth and her team coordinated. We were able to close on both locations on the same day, a timeline that worked out perfectly for us. Beth was super helpful in coordinating everything, making sure things went smoothly. We love our new home and we are so grateful that we had her to support us throughout the whole process!

Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, my wife got a job in Chicago. She had 2 weeks to find a…read moreplace to rent that was close to her future work location. I started looking for agents on the internet. You would think that being one of the top-5 biggest cities in the US, Chicago is an easy city to find an agent in. WRONG! Every agent I called turned out to be a either a douchebag who "did not do rentals" or an asshole who "had nothing in my price range". After a few hours of looking for an agent, I was convinced that I will end up having to rely on outdated Trulia data and take my chances with open houses during our 1-day house-hunting trip. I ended up cursing at myself, Chicago, and all its real-estate agents and did what I typically do when I want to cool down: filled a bowl with plain yoghurt and took it to my bed to eat in peace. After devouring the first spoon of plain yoghurt, I came across Stephen's number on Yelp. I was pessimistic, but that one spoon had un-pissed me enough to give another agent a chance, so, I said, what the heck, I'll call this one too. Now, this was a cold depressing Sunday afternoon, so, nothing could really cheer me up and I wasn't expecting anyone to answer anyways. Still I called anyways. He answered the phone asking me the exact kind of questions I was expecting "how close do you want to be to the loop?", "how do you feel about spending $100 more to get a place that's closer". He then took time to explain to me how real-estate market works in Chicago (it is VERY different than Boston and San Francisco!). We exchanged emails and he put us through the smoothest apartment-hunting experience anyone in continental US has experienced.

Jenny Sepulveda, a real estate agent with Sudler Sotheby's, was the listing agent for a condo that…read morewe tried to purchase. We had a TERRIBLE experience with the entire process. She either deliberately withheld the fact that there was a special assessment on the property or she failed to do her due diligence to uncover this information (neither pratice is acceptable; especially given the costs to us--which were many). The sales contract that we signed indicated NO SPECIALS--a complete misrepresentation. Bottom line, we were provided with inaccurate information about the condo and invested money and extensive time during the "attempted purchase process" and, in the end, could not recoup our time or money. Jenny Sepulveda dropped the ball repeatedly during the purchase contingency period--I could go on and on--what a mess for us. Take my advice and stay clear of this agent!
