Gloor agent turned to my agent and asked, rather jokingly, and chuckled: "I wonder what this'll mean for my commission?" Then, she informed me that she forgot to bring the keys for the property and could she get 'em to us "later?" (The simultaneous "thud" you hear is that of the jaws of me, my wife, Realtor, mortgage broker, attorney, title/escrow manager, and seller's attorney hitting the table.) Unprofessional, irresponsible, and rude.

She made some last second changes to the deal so that she could get it done fast without discussing with me, even though it costed me money, so be wary. During this deal the buyer agent told me some of Terry's practices were unconventional and not standard. Also, things weren't done in a timely manner and any delay with the listing and processing of paperwork was always her "assistant's fault." Overall, clear lack of professionalism.

Purchasing real estate when you are from out of town is a little scary. We were looking for a condo…read morein Chicago and I contacted Heather after reading several reviews. Well, it turned out perfectly. Heather was great to work with and she quickly understood our needs and within hours we were looking at listings. We narrowed down the listings and provided feedback to Heather, so she could send us additional properties to consider. After further refinement, we scheduled time with Heather to review the properties when we visited Chicago. Meeting Heather in person confirmed that we found the right person to help us with the purchase. Heather has an detailed understanding of the Chicago market and made sure we understood the pros and cons of each property. Heather was generous with her time and and fun to work with and when we settled on a property, Heather streamlined the process and we had an accepted offer in a day. Heather even helped in streamlining the mortgage and closing processes by introducing us to a Mortgage broker and an attorney, both of whom were great to work with. We closed in 4 weeks. Overall a great experience!

When corresponding with representatives from this firm, I encountered repeated issues with disorganization , lack of responsiveness, and poor attention to critical details. There were also situations that raised serious concerns about professionalism and ethical judgement. Purchasing property requires trust, competence and transparency. Unfortunately my experience reflected the opposite. I often felt that I needed to double-check information, due to the frequent errors on their behalf, and advocate for basic standards that should be routine in this profession. I strongly recommend that potential clients proceed with caution and carefully verify all information provided.

JENNIFER MILLS-KLATT…read more EEEKKKKKKKKKKKK! Methinks not is exactly how I would describe this lady. She recently worked with the owner of our condo to sell it. According to her, she has lots of experience, but you would not be able to tell by the way she handles situations. I have to say, I am quite put off by her manners. For as many years in real estate as she has, she has zero class. For being a 50 something year old woman, she acts like she is a 12 year old. We asked to remove shoes, she agreed and then didnt. When I asked her face to face, she said she forgot. Then insulted us via email on the cleanliness of our apartment as an excuse. Mind you, we are in our 30's and this is our home. We stated a time didnt work for us, she then stated that we were getting out of our lease two weeks early and were saving money so we should concede . She really is very insulting and unprofessional. The emails that she sent us are rude and abrasive. If you want this lady to represent you, I feel very sorry for the people that she bowls over to make a buck. Moreover, how people will view you because she is an extension of you as your realtor. I think there are about a BA-ZILLION other Realtors in Chicago that I can think of that are professional and excellent at what they do.

I would not use Picket Fence again, and I do not recommend them. Sue Duchek handled the listing on…read moremy house in Arlington Heights. She gave a pitch that was thorough, and set a price that was higher than other agents'. It took more than two months to get one offer, despite have many showings and getting positive feedback from people who toured the house. The price was lowered repeatedly. And this was when houses were selling super fast during the pandemic (spring-summer 2021). I eventually realized she "bought the listing", as several neighbors had suggested. When I asked her why there were no offers sooner, she mentioned two obstacles (being across from a park, and not having a big backyard); and said she didn't know they would pose problems. Seriously? My house finally sold for more than $60,000 below the original list price. Very dissatisfactory.

Sue Duchek, broker and owner of Pickett Fence Realty, turned the reluctance and anxiety I felt…read moreabout having to use a realtor into gratitude and completely positive feelings about my first time doing so. I had unenthusiastically decided that I would need the help of a realtor to sell a condo I had lived in and owned for 30 years, because I was then living 140 miles away. I was unenthusiastic and reluctant because I am an independent and DIY kind of guy. Nevertheless, my wife and I interviewed several realtors in the Arlington Heights area. We knew in ten minutes we had a match when we met Sue. What impressed us was her calm, mature, friendly, thoughtful, humble and relatable demeanor and the fact that she did not push herself on us despite what we later learned were her manifest qualifications and experience. My point is, Sue is the real deal as a person and you will love working with her. She will tell it like it is and you'll want to hear it. For me, Sue has a great deal of personal credibility and earned my trust early with her nuanced thinking and analysis. She also has a lively sense of humor which, believe me, can serve anyone well in this sometimes fraught and emotional undertaking of real estate sales. Sue guided me through a minefield of difficult decisions in the worst months of the Covid-19 crisis in the spring and summer of 2020. Then she rationally and sympathetically helped me keep the faith through the disappointment of losing two early sales (for reasons beyond our control or influence) until we finally "got our plane on the ground and to the terminal", as our lawyer, Collin Gilbert of Palatine, put it. He was recommended by Sue and turned out to be a great choice. I recommend him as well for his hard work, communications skills and wise advice. I felt that Sue was in the game - my game - with both her head and her heart from the start. I would unconditionally recommend her to anyone seeking a delightful partner and an experienced guide in their real estate journey. If you call her, say "hey" from me.

Most agents will probably throw the property on a lockbox, and MLS...and see what happens. ANNA IS DIFFERENT! She met every one of the prospective renters at the property for showings! WOW! Anna is hardworking, and provides great communication throughout the process. She always gave me feedback after showings, and was never hard to reach. Her extra effort is what helped get the place rented quickly, and at the rate I wanted! She knows the city well, and you will not be disappointed in working with her. THANKS ANNA!

Amy listened to all we had to say and carefully found great listings for us to consider and see in person. At the time, we were living out of state and decided that we wanted to spend a weekend in Chicago to check the properties ourselves(I would highly recommend you do this if you are in a similar situation as it's easier to get a feel for things in person vs pictures/videos). We looped Amy into the dates that we would be here and she worked her magic and had all of our listings showed to us on a single day. The night before, we saw a listing become available on the market and also asked Amy to include that in the showing. She worked diligently and made it happen come showing day. Amy's got great communication skills and made the whole process a breeze! Since we did not have a car with us, she even offered to drive us to the showings and also show us around the neighborhoods. Such a stressful experience if done on your own but again, Amy made it such a great, and easy one. After all the properties we saw, we finally went with the one that felt the most right to us and Amy amazed us again with negotiating out deals with the property owner/company that managed it. She walked us through the steps on what we needed to do next to secure the property and was available throughout the whole process to help answer all the questions we had as well as being very reassuring throughout the process of application. The market can be competitive and scary for rental properties but having a great realtor definitely gave us a competitive edge and a huge reassurance. Thank you Amy and thank you Andy Sokol for connecting me to her! You guys have got a great team and I will be using Amy again should I ever need to buy/rent. Sokol group is highly recommended by me and I will be referring any friends who need real estate services!
