I have been on the board of directors for Lakeside Villas in Wheeling for about 16 years. Our…read moreproperty manager, Giemar Capul has been hands down the best property manager I have ever worked with. He answers his phone when homeowners contact him. He returns calls. If he doesn't have an answer to a homeowner's question or problem he works to find an answer. He is very conscientious. He even works while he is on vacation. The difference between working with Mperial and our former management company is night and day. Numerous homeowners have come up to me and expressed how delightful it is to deal with Giemar and Mperial. It is such a please to work with Mperial and Giemar.

I was very nervous about moving to a community with an HOA and a management company. So far, I am…read morehappy to say my fears were unfounded. Giemar is very communicative and responds quickly to my concerns. I requested tree branches be removed from behind my unit due to squirrel activity and he reached out to the appropriate vendor immediately. When the vendor only removed one of the branches I requested, Giemar again reached out to the tree people to inquire why. They said there'd been an error and they were out within a day to finish the job. In all regards, Giemar has replied quickly and I have not been left to wonder if anyone received my email. He is pleasant and professional and I thank you for providing good service and a good experience.

Dan sold our seemingly unsellable house TWICE!…read more We lived in a very unique home and were eager to move. A previous realtor had the listing for months with no interest/movement. We met Dan through a mutual friend and decided to give him a try. Dan was great. It was a little tough to hear the truth when it came to the changes we needed to make. But we made those changes and complete with Dan's marketing and reach...voila! The house sold. Those buyers backed out in the 11th hour. We panicked. No need. Dan found another buyer. All went through and we closed quickly. My husband gutted and rehabbed a home in 2008. Clearly, we did not foresee what was about to happen to the housing market. But Dan sold that home. It was the only home to sell in Libertyville that month. We have recommended Dan to friends and, honestly, complete strangers should a conversation strike about home buying and selling. All have been thrilled! We lean on Dan for any home advice and recommend him confidently!

My wife and I just closed on our new home. We have purchased many homes over the course of our…read morelives and never - ever - have we received the attention of a real-estate team like we did with Dan and Mary! Dan took our first phone call, asked all the right questions and ran with our wish list to help us find our new home. He was engaged, thoughtful, caring and - most importantly - never pushed us. As a seasoned professional his insight into the market, the team he brought with him (mortgage broker, attorney and staff) were available 16 hours a day and all weekend! The communication was over the top fantastic. Dan had a family vacation planned during our offer process and some negotiations. He asked us to work with his team member Mary who did not miss a beat! She made us feel as though we were her only client. Texts and calls at 9, 10 at night were not unusual. We never felt like they were put out! NEVER! We would highly recommend Dan, Mary and their entire team to guide you through your journey of homeownership whether it's your first time or 10th time purchasing a home! I promise you will not be disappointed!

This review is way over due. Pebbleshire Apartments in Vernon Hills is a great place to live…read more It's 1am and I'm tired so this review isn't going to be the best as far as grammar goes, but it is long overdue and the only reason it has taken me so long to leave the review is b/c I've been so busy with work & school. I lived here at the 930 complex from April '14 to April '15 and I'll give it a 5/5 star for many reasons, I'll list some here below but I won't lie if I say this is all that's good about the place or "bad": -Lisa is an amazing property manager. She is very open to working with you and makes sure all of the details within the contract are spelled out very easily and in great detail. -If there is ever anything that needs fixing, as a tenant it's obvious you need to bring this up and Lisa is one of the quickest responders I've seen in a landlord. -Any issues with maintenance are taken care of very quickly, obviously within a reasonable time constraint, but if there is an emergency the best man on the ground, Mario, is always happy to come help! - Miss this guy a lot, he is hands down nicest maintenance guy I have met. To me he isn't a regular maintenance guy by any means. He takes pride in Pebbleshire's complex and goes out of his way to make sure your living is up to par. -The price is reasonable for the area as well. Make sure you know how to budget though, it is an apartment and you don't want to be late! If you are late though, Lisa will do her best to work with you, however if you get a notice of possible eviction, well then it's most likely because you failed to meet your end of the bargain. As I mentioned before, she lays out the details of the contract in as black & white, crystal clear as possible, but she is a great person and very understanding property manager. - I really liked that it was very close to the metra for trips to the city -A trail to go running is right across the street that leads to a park, a basketball court and a playground for kids -There is a lot of parking available and your guests can park for free in the "guest" designated area which is awesome. -Appliances are fairly new and I had a new carpeted bedroom which was awesome. -It is near the mall, target, taco bell, burger king, fresh garden market, hwy 83, korean bbq, Walmart, a ton of other shopping areas, but it is nicely tucked into a neighborhood so you don't feel like you are living out on any busy roads. If you have questions and want to ask a recent tenet please feel free, but you might as well go and visit Lisa and have Mario show you around otherwise you will never understand what I mean when I say they are truly the nicest people.... in all honesty, I don't understand why there are some snobby landlords out there, especially those related to apartment associations, they don't treat tenants as people who are trying to find a place to call home, but pebbleshire, you make it your home and they let you. -Cheers!!!!!!!
