This review is long over due..R Brand, Inc and especially LAUREN ERICK with whom I dealt with…read moreexclusively renovated 2 town houses that I owned In Tinley Park Il, before I sold them in the Brookside Glen Development. The 1st house was at 7725 Richardson Lane was a house of horrors after the renters who rented the property for 5 years DESTROYED IT! It was necessary to send in a hazmat crew before any renovations could begin to give you an idea of what we had to work with. I know that without Lauren Erick these 2 renovations could HAVE NEVER BEEN COMPLETED. Lauren's leadership, experience, and expertise was an invaluable part of this process. Lauren was constantly driving the process forward while very patiently explaining to me where we were on the time line, and constantly making recommendations..where the budget was, what was necessary and more importantly what WAS NOT necessary. For example...putting hardwood from the 1st floor on the stairs to the 2nd floor..."just put in carpeting..it will flow better to the 2nd floor that is carpeted...thats 2000-4000 dollars you do not need to spend" I learned very quickly that Lauren with her experience in these matters is to be listened to ALWAYS. The 2nd house that was renovated was at 8661 Ballycastle which needed significantly less improvements..however it was tight schedule that she made work so that everything was done in time for the listing Now, I haven' t even gotten around to telling you the good part yet. I HAVE NEVER MET LAUREN ERICK. I have never set foot in these properties. I don't even live in the USA. I live in Europe... all of our discussions were over the phone and whatsapp. I did ALL of this from Europe. NOW this is a testament to Lauren Erick's communication skills, and her ability to frame in your mind how the project IS going to look..what works what does not work... I self admittedly have zero visualization skills so I relied solely on her visual interpretation . Thanks Again Lauren Erick and Thank you to your Colleagues at R BRAND Inc, for the incredible job that you folks did for me. And if you read this and talk to R Brand .. Tell them Greg sent you!!

The Rbrand team did a basement renovation project that fully renovated a raw concrete basement into…read morea large family space with bathroom and closet. The team was fantastic to work with and I would recommend them to anyone. We had a lot of changes and specifications, but they were always easy to talk things through and flexible. We opted to do a 203k renovation loan; these are fairly annoying and tedious paperwork-wise. But, Rbrand was extremely helpful throughout. All members of their team were courteous and always helpful as well. We are very happy with their work and our new basement.
