We strongly recommend working with Stephanie Cutter and her team…read more She's helped us buy two condos and sell one. In each case she listened closely to our needs and provided the expert guidance, advocacy, and resources we needed to feel confident in our decisions. Not only is her team excellent, but she has an extensive network of contacts that she willingly engaged and connected us with to consult on everything from mortgage and legal questions to contractors. She has also been there for us in several important moments in between, like when we needed an expert perspective on some complicated HOA dynamics. And we really appreciate the resources on home ownership she and her team share regularly. To say she goes above and beyond is an understatement, and she is also one of the kindest and smartest people we know. She will absolutely be our first call if we ever decide to move again in the future.

Thanks to her help and experience, we were able to find a condo we loved by the end of the weekend. Afterwards, she helped assist with the closing process making it absolutely seamless. Cannot recommend working with Stephanie enough for any of your real estate needs in Chicago!

Amanda McMillan and Katie Carrico were absolutely phenomenal to work with. From start to finish,…read morethey provided timely, consistent updates and made the entire selling process feel seamless and stress-free. Amanda, in particular, went above and beyond with her research, insight, and professionalism. As someone who prefers to make decisions based on data and numbers, I truly appreciated how she backed every recommendation with clear market data, thoughtful analysis, and her deep veteran experience. As a first-time home seller, I never felt overwhelmed--Amanda provided clarity and guidance on everything from staging and photography to appliance updates, open houses, and negotiations. What impressed me most was her accuracy. From our very first conversation, Amanda forecasted the market conditions and likely outcomes with incredible precision--and she was spot on. The result was not only the outcome I was hoping for, but even better. Both Amanda and Katie were a pleasure to work with, and I can't recommend them highly enough. I've already referred multiple friends and family members to Amanda and will continue to do so for years to come.

If you are thinking of making a move, I cannot think a better person to be on your team.

I contacted Heather about one of her agents, Craig Frazen, who was the listing agent of a house I…read morepurchased. Heather DID respond to my email, but was very defensive about her agent. I expressed some concerns about how the deal was made including the agent misrepresenting the square footage and condition of the house. Apparently there is no agreed upon standard for square footage and it's not the listing agent job to carefully check the size or condition of the property. Knowing this is the biggest purchase of someone's life the whole laissez-faire attitude leaves something to be desired. Sure, it's buyer beware, but when/how to ethicals come into play? We didn't have that conversation because she was too busy cheering for Craig! In Heather's own words "shit happens" and that about summarizes her objectivity about one of her agents and the real estate market in general. The seller's 100 percent mis-represented the house and Heather's point was that's not Craig's fault, but being rather careless about how he advertised the property left me wondering how the transaction could have been better. Heather was too busy defending Craig to actually consider that. And because of that I would not use either one of them for my next real estate transaction.

My experience working with realtors from this business was deeply disappointing, and frankly…read morealarming. 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.

I was…read moreat a loss perusing websites and walking around neighborhoods trying to find the perfect condo to rent. Friends told me about Samantha and encouraged me to contact her. I was wary about using a realtor initially, but Samantha asked me to send her a prioritized list of what I wanted in my new home and she began sending me listings - this showed me that she listened to me. After seeing about 15 condos, my priority list shifted and Samantha took it all in stride. Beyond her exceptional responsiveness and willingness to show me properties all over the city, her extensive knowledge of the neighborhoods and good restaurants was out of this world! Samantha is so personable and loves the uniqueness of Chicago: She often took pictures of the architecture, vintage appliances, and fun details (a Koi pond with a waterfall at one condo!). I cannot recommend her enough!

Along with her patience with me as a first time buyer, Karen provided excellent real estate advice and referred me to fantastic colleagues to provide lending and real estate law services.

A coworker recommended Karen to me when I began my first condo search in Chicago and was…read moredissatisfied with the pushy realtors I met. I cannot be more thankful. She has spotted special assessment level defects that I would never have noticed and that might not have been in board meeting minutes, helped imagine renovations, given sage advice on issues critical to long term value of the condo, and been excellent during negotiations. All while making me laugh, feel comfortable, never smooth talking, and leaving the impression that I was her only client. My partner said, "You get the sense that she doesn't need the money, that she does real estate because she loves it." He's right and it'sobvious. After a friend went on showings with Karen and me, he left his agent after the contract expired and started with Karen. At first I doubted the value of a real estate agent because these days the internet has a wealth of up-to-date listings, past sale data, and other relevant information about buildings and the units themselves. Those data have certainly helped me in my search. However, working with Karen, it's clear no DIY research online can return close to the value she brings in terms of dollars and the security that someone highly competent is double-checking and questioning my decisions.

And it was a great decision. Our home buying process did not go as quickly or smoothly as possible, but Kelli was very helpful throughout the whole process. She was always available for a phone call and might be the most organized person I know. Whenever new information came up or whenever we had a question Kelli was always willing to communicate with us. Even though we visited dozens of homes and made offers on 7+ homes, Kelli never got frustrated with us and we never got frustrated with her. Once we did find our home it was a great relief and we were very thankful that Kelli was there throughout the entire journey. Nothing but the highest recommendation for Kelli.
