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own home would now be closing in two weeks, and although we had agreed to the terms, the one in hand was suddenly withdrawn because: "Something came up that they have their eyes on."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.

A Masterclass in Incompetence and Poor Communication…read more I am writing this review to detail the profoundly unprofessional and ethically questionable conduct of real estate agent Randy Schulenburg, who represented the seller of a condo I wished to purchase. The sequence of events was as follows: My agent submitted my good-faith offer to Randy Schulenburg. The seller received our offer. Randy Schulenburg informed us that a "second offer" had materialized and instructed us to come back with our "best and final" offer by 5 PM the next day. Within less than two hours of this instruction, the property's status was changed to "Pending" on Realtor.com. Confused, my agent called Randy Schulenburg to inquire what was happening. He provided no explanation for the conflicting information but told her that we could still submit our best and final offer. We did exactly as he said and submitted an improved offer. After submitting, we heard nothing. My agent sent numerous emails asking for any update. After this period of unprofessional silence, Randy Schulenburg finally got back to her simply to state that the seller had accepted "the first offer." The complete lack of transparency is unacceptable. The entire "best and final" exercise, initiated after the property was already pending, appears to have been a complete fiction and performance art masquerading as real estate sales. The greatest indictment comes from my own agent, who stated that in her 30-year career, she had never encountered anything nearly as questionable as this. I cannot recommend Randy Schulenburg under any circumstances. My experience suggests you cannot trust the information he provides or the processes he manages. Dealing with him was a frustrating and shady experience that cost us time and emotional energy. Exercise extreme caution.

Just want to acknowledge Randy Schulenburg for who he is and how much he invests in his clients…read more If I didn't know better I'd say he thought about my situation more than I did myself! You can't fake great character. Randy displayed quality of character you can't pay for, and might I add, even when no one is looking! You will never regret having him on your team. I know I didn't.

Home Sold in West Dundee, IL. Look no further for the absolute best real estate agent in the…read morebusiness. Mary was recommended by a friend but we were a bit concerned because she was not located in our town. We set up an interview and, in the first 10 minutes, knew we were working with a real professional. We signed with her and our house was sold that night before it went up online. She guided us through the process and was with us every step of the way. Her knowledge of the market allowed us to price our house right and negotiate terms that worked for us and the new buyers. There is a reason that she is a top agent and I encourage anyone selling their house or a buyer looking for a new home to contact Mary Sagan. I am not sure how wide her territory is, but look into it if you want the best!!!

I interviewed several realtors before selecting David. I selected him because of his…read moreprofessionalism, his ability to follow through on promises, and because he was a fellow veteran. I never regretted my decision to list with him. I had an offer on my home in three months and closed in five. Similar homes in my neighborhood listed at the same time with other realtors never sold. I highly recommend working with David.

The whole experience I had with Dawn was straight horrible. She's a liar & just unprofessional…read more I called her out on being rude and she told me. "I don't know, if you knew what's going on in McHenry but my nerves is short". We all have personal things going on in our life that doesn't give you the right to be rude. As soon as I told her I want to cancel the contract she started being really shady telling me I had to pay for things that wasn't in our contract. Just for the sake of it, I said I will pay anything because I do not want anything to do with her. She continuously harassed me! If she is doing this to me, I know she is going to do it with someone else so please be aware!!

I'm due to close on the 13th and all the processes are working smoothly with no hiccups. Since I've left the area Dawn has scheduled a weekly visit to my home just to make sure all is ok within my property. They have a company that takes care of all the utility change over. The Bremer Team also recommended a moving company to move me to New Jersey Drieske a local moving company came thru and loaded in McHenry and unloaded in New Jersey. Thank you to Dawn and her team to provide these contacts. Selling a home is harder than it looks. With the professionals in the real estate industry they make it as easy on their clients as possible. A big hug and thank you to The Bremer team of Keller Williams

We are very grateful to Kat for getting us into our dream home! While searching for our first home,…read morewe ended up in a bit of a bind. We needed to find a buyers agent willing to accommodate us with a single days notice! We received a referral to Kat and I reached out with very little time left. Kat was excellent about getting back to me about my initial inquiry and jumped right into action educating us on how we could proceed with our situation. She was on the ball, promptly getting all of the details worked out and documents to my inbox. She was ready when we needed to get under contract. She was also an amazing help when it came to working out any surprises with the lending or inspections that came up as we rushed to close in under 30 days! Working with Kat turned out to be one of the best working relationships I've experienced. The way we were able to connect and close on this opportunity really made my life easier during a busy time. I greatly respect her approach and handling of business and I will be referring her to anyone I know looking for a home in the area.

I cant speak highly enough of about my experience with Jacqueline Fischer as my realtor…read more I was a first time home buyer with very little knowledge about how to even begin to search for the right place and she had the utmost paitence with me. She was very quick to respond to all my questions and extremely helpful, knowledgeable, diligent and went well above and beyond to guide me towards making the best decision. Her dedication to not only finding my first home but the PERFECT home was more than I ever expected from a real estate agent. I would highly recommend Jacqueline to anyone looking to buy/sell a home. *****
