He sold our house in the city and not only that....we got more than we paid for it 6 years earlier in this down market. He also helped us to find our new suburban home.

He never tried to convince to do anything he thought we were the least bit uncomfortable with. Our needs and wants were always put first. Thanks Andy!

Bob was super friendly and helpful, offering lots of great insight on the market and on our target neighborhoods. He was always happy to strategize and answer questions over the phone, and provided us with a daily rundown of new listings to pore through, and even offered to help check them out on our behalf to help us scout potential spots. All of it was a huge help, and gave us a lot of confidence as we went through the process of finding our next home. Would absolutely recommend his services to anyone else planning a move in or to Chicago.

We can't say enough great things about our experience working with Mike! As first-time homebuyers,…read morewe were naturally nervous about navigating the process, but he made it feel easy and stress-free from start to finish. His professionalism, deep knowledge of the Chicago market--especially the Gold Coast--and his ability to clearly guide us through each step made all the difference. He really listened to what we were looking for and helped us find a condo we absolutely love. We never felt rushed or pressured, just fully supported. We're so happy with our purchase that we've already decided to work with him again on our next venture--an investment property. That alone speaks volumes. If you're looking for a realtor who genuinely cares and truly knows the city, look no further. Highly recommended!

I bought a condo in Printers Square for my son while he was a student at Columbia U. After he…read moregraduated I rented it out for a number of years, but that became increasingly difficult to deal with from San Francisco where I live. I decided to sell, found Jim online, and quickly realized that he was a great guy as well as being an exceptional agent. As an absentee landlord, I needed a little extra help which he provided. He was able to recommend someone to do a minor upgrade and a stage-er when we put it on the market. He also gave sage advice as to when the best time to sell was as well as pricing ideas of course. If you want a smart, experienced and simpatico agent, Jim's your guy.

I've now both bought a place -- and then sold that place a few years later -- through Jim. Having…read morebeen through both sides of the process, I'm pretty well qualified to speak to Jim. As a buyer, Jim was both ready to take the lead with regards to finding places to show me, and taking me to places I saw online. It's a good balance. I imagine that buyers these days mostly need their agents for the paperwork and touring anyway, and he appreciates that. The process was easy. The selling process was harder, but I think I made it harder for myself. There were a few flaws with the home (just small things, like it needing to be painted, etc.), and he suggested staging it. I balked, because that stuff is expensive, and he accepted that and did virtual staging instead. However, when it didn't sell for a couple of months, I agreed to staging...and I had a good offer in less than two weeks. Maybe I would've gotten an offer anyway, but his advice on the staging definitely seemed to be worthwhile. He made the paperwork on that side SUPER easy -- which is great, since I had already moved out of state -- and even sent me a small, delicious gift to celebrate my move. I doubt I'll be back in Chicago for anything but visiting, but if I did want to buy/sell there, I'd definitely look Jim up again. It's also worth noting that the Dream Town office is stocked with my favorite soda (Diet Dr Pepper, in a can), which is a plus in my book.

We obviously knew very little going in (although my wife is a researcher-supreme, so we were at least not caught completely off-guard), and Mike made every step of the process painless and easy to understand. He's patient, respectful, and does his due diligence; he gave us helpful advice about all aspects of the homebuying process, and his insight helped us make good decisions that we'd have otherwise had more trouble making. Realistically, people are in real estate to make money, right? The nice thing is, we never for a second felt like this was a factor in Mike's approach to us; he didn't try to up our budget (actually, he tried to be pretty conservative until we gave him the thumbs up to start climbing) and made it crystal clear that the important end result was a place we'd love AND feel comfortable with financially. My Yelp account is basically a place for me to highlight food joints I've really enjoyed, but Mike is such a great guy, and such a gem of a realtor that I wanted to make sure other people got the chance to check him out and hopefully work with him in the future. Whatever your goal is, he won't disappoint you. Also, his suits are killer!
