Scott was amazing! He helped us sell our house, recommended…read morea lawyer and made the process smooth sailing! Scott also helped us find our new home, in Wisconsin, amid all of the housing market chaos. He was reliable, made things worked and had a great team working with him.

I met Scott in 2017 when we were looking for a rental; he was the realtor for the location for…read moreanother family to rent out their property. That rental didn't work out for us, which was a blessing in disguise. Scott made it a point to stay in touch with us over the last 4 years to see if we were ready to purchase and led us to someone who was able to help us repair our credit to get us financially ready to purchase. We were finally situated this year to purchase and he helped us all along the way. He was there for us to answer all the questions we had and for those he didn't have an answer on he researched the information and provided it to us. I commend Scott for how consistent he was in checking in on our family throughout the years to see if we were ready and able to move forward to purchase. He shared a lot of information on renting verses owning which helped to guide us with the ultimate decision to purchase and invest our money instead of throwing it away on a rental. He was very flexible with our schedules and was so patient over the years taking us to many locations till we found "The One"! I highly recommended working with Scott Henninger and his team. Even when he couldn't make an appointment he was able to send someone from his to meet us at the location he looked at for purchase. I am so thankful to have connected with him and I highly recommended taking your business to him! Thank you again Scott for all that you did! You and your team were amazing and you have helped us so much along the way! Without your consistency and guidance we would have been throwing our money away! THANK YOU!

When we started the process of moving to Wilmette from the east coast (with school-age children)…read morewithout prior knowledge of the area, we knew we would need a real estate agent that 1) was well-informed locally, 2) would get to know us to help guide us, and 3) was communicative and quick to respond. We had already introduced ourselves to a few realtors who were clearly not all three when we fortunately found Tim and instantly knew he was the guy for us. With extensive history in the North Shore, a friendly demeanor, and a work ethic that responded immediately to texts, emails, or calls, we credit Tim with our successful move to the area. By the time we made our single house hunting visit, he was able to steer us straight to the few places we would seriously consider, and concisely told us which of the rest of the MLS search results to ignore due to price/location/condition issues. Then we made an offer with his guidance and used every inspector/attorney/etc he recommended without a hitch. An absolutely amazing experience!

Tim did an outstanding job helping me purchase my new home. As a first time homebuyer, I was…read morenervous and excited. Tim took away my nervousness and helped me step-by-step throughout the process. He answered all my questions including ones I had not thought of. From getting my pre-approval for a mortgage, home inspection, and leading up to the closing. I could not have asked for more. Tim made this home purchase very good for me. I will definitely recommend Tim to all my friends and family that are looking to purchase or sell real estate. If you want someone you can trust, Tim Shaker is your guy!

Erik helped us buy our first home and we could not have chosen a better person for that journey…read more We looked for a house or condo for about a year before finding "the one" and over the course of that year, Erik patiently searched with us and gave us an education of what to look for when buying. We saw a lot of homes during that year and met a lot of other agents and I can't believe how lucky we were to have someone that was so knowledgeable and down to earth to help us on our search. He walked us through all aspects of looking at potential properties, making an offer, negotiating, and all the little steps we needed to take before finally closing on our house. He always responded right away to the thousands of little questions we asked and we really trusted his opinion. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

We used Erik to sell and buy condos in Lincoln Park a few years back. Our experience was so…read morepleasant that we recently used him again to sell our (outgrown) condo and to find our dream home on the North Shore. Erik truly understands market trends and current inventory which helped us price our condo competitively and get it sold within a week. His strong negotiating skills and market knowledge helped us sell our place at a price above our expectations. When searching for our new home, Erik listened carefully to our "must haves" and made some excellent recommendations in an effort to help us focus our search area. He was completely engaged in our house hunt and extremely responsive to our calls, emails, and texts. Erik is very accommodating and worked around our (and our infant's) schedules when making appointments. It was easy to trust him with issues and have him help make decisions on our behalf. We appreciated his initiative and willingness to help, especially since the buying/selling process can be time consuming and complicated. Quite simply, Erik made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. On top of the superior client service Erik provides himself, he also surrounds himself with a wealth of industry resources. He referred us to an excellent mortgage broker, lawyer, and home inspector which made our home buying and selling process so easy. We will continue to recommend Erik to all our family and friends looking for a top notch realtor in the Chicago area.

We have sold 3 homes with Ralph Binetti--the first sold in 3 days, the second sold in 4 days, and…read morethe third never even had to be listed. He got us our asking price before we even put it on the market. Our first transaction with him back in 2000 he caught a mistake in our closing statement that was different than what we agreed to and would have given him more money but he pointed out the mistake and that was enough for us--he is honest and has integrity and we can't say that about everyone in this business. We have referred family members and business associates to him over the years without hesitation. Ralph has been our exclusive realtor for 25 years and we can't recommend him enough. He's a stand-up guy.

I can't say enough good things about Marc Whitley. If you are looking for a realtor, please don't…read morethink twice about hiring Marc. Family members recommended Marc to us as they knew we were looking to buy a new home. He was with us every step of the way. Even when we were unable to make a showing because we were out of town, Marc went to the showing and called us with on video so that we could determine if we were interested in making an offer on the home or not. He really takes the time to get to know his clients and understand exactly what they are looking for. He will be with you every step of the way and makes himself available to answer you questions and speak with you even after office hours. In this home buying market you want a realtor that is going to fight for you and be honest every step of the way in the home buying process. If so, reach out to Marc and you won't be disappointed. Thanks Marc for all your dedication and hard work in helping us to find a home.

My husband and I just bought our first home and have nothing but nice things to say about Bo West…read more Prior to using Bo, the realtor we were working with was very pushy and did not have our best interest at heart. Bo, on the other hand bent over backwards to accomodate our hectic work schedules and to meet us on the days that worked for us to see homes. Not only was Bo friendly, he is also very knowledgable of the current market and gave us great tips and things to think about. Bo was involved in every portion of us buying the home and even would check in while we were waiting to close just to see if we had any questions. If you are looking for an outstanding realtor who works for you, I would highly recommend Bo West.

Israel Ballesteros, a real estate agent with Remax Horizon in Elgin, IL was extremely difficult to…read morework with. After days of "working the numbers" his buyer placed an offer on our property which we promptly countered, but Mr. Ballesteros was very unprofessional during attempted negotiations by ignoring numerous messages. He was totally non-responsive to our agent for several days at a time. Meanwhile, we suspect there was also an offer placed on another property(s) since the buyer's own home would now be closing in two weeks, and although we had agreed to the terms, the one in hand was suddenly withdrawn because: "Something came up that they have their eyes on." It is highly questionable that an entirely new transaction could be completed in such a short time frame. . Placing an undisclosed second offer while ours was still in play is highly unethical. Pursuant to the Realtors Code of Ethics his actions appear to be in violation of its basic premise "to treat all parties honestly." Minimally, Mr. Ballesteros should review the Code of Ethics and attend a communications seminar. We reached out to both his manager and the owner of Remax Horizon with our concerns, but received no response from either of them. We would NOT recommend Israel Ballesteros or any interaction with Remax Horizon in Elgin, IL when there are so many agents and realtors out there with excellent communication skills, and certainly, higher standards of professionalism.
