As a newlywed couple and first-time home buyer, navigating the real estate market is a rather…read moreoverwhelming and stressful task. That all changed the moment started working with Julie Anne! I couldn't be happier with the result or recommend anyone that provide the overall quality of service and knowledge that she has to offer. From the very beginning, Julie took the time to get to fully comprehend our situation and made sure that our goals were in line with our financial situation. Unlike most salespeople, Julie was not looking to just find us a house, she was looking to find us a place we called home. It was clear to see that she is concerned about the overall satisfaction of her clients. After each phone call or meeting, my wife and I really began to grow fond of the fact that we found an industry leading, trusted adviser to help us navigate the real estate market. Julie's experience in this industry is evident as she walked us through the seemingly endless pages to sign during our closing. We ended up purchasing the home of our dreams at a price almost 20% below the sellers asking price. In addition, she was able to negotiate the completion of $15,000 worth of renovations that were discovered by the incredible home inspector she recommended. The negotiation process kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I couldn't help thinking that maybe her negotiation approach was too aggressive, and we might lose the deal. In the end, Julie was spot on, we walked away with a move in ready home and money we could spend on starting a life as newlyweds in our new home. We were so incredibly happy to have such a highly skilled, confident and dedicated agent representing us. Julie was available when we had questions, even after hours. Her professionalism, honesty, industry knowledge, and hard work ethic go beyond anything we would have expected. From day one, Julie had our best interest in mind and made our first-time home buying experience stress-free and successful. Julie Anne, with @Properties is my only recommendation for anyone looking for an industry leading, trusted adviser, to help you successfully navigate the complex real estate market. Thank you Julie Anne!

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.
