He wasn't just trying to make a sale; he consistently gave his honest, expert opinion on every home we toured. If you want a realtor who is transparent, knowledgeable, and genuinely has your best interests at heart, look no further than Lance!

Between knowing the listing agents when I was looking and the buyer's agent when I was selling, negotiations and closings were a breeze. I will not work with another realtor again!

Moving from Phoenix, I had to find a rental fast. I flew in and had only four days to tour properties, but Stacie was up for the challenge. After finding properties I was interested in on the MLS, Stacie set-up the tours and was persistent in her follow-up communication with the landlords/brokers. I never felt like time was being wasted--she was always 2 steps ahead of me and working diligently on my behalf. On the first day of tours she picked me and gave me a driving tour of the neighborhoods I was interested in. She answered all of my questions without judgement and even gave me restaurant recommendations! Stacie is remarkably savvy and competent in her field of work, though I am most impressed with her compassion, honesty, and down-to-earth attitude. Ultimately she helped place me in a spacious, renovated unit in the South Loop that far exceeded my expectations. I am beyond grateful for Stacie's help and would recommend her and her group to anyone trying to rent in the Chicago area. Thank you!

Their work is seriously life changing and I'm not exaggerating in the slightest. I'm sure the same is true for the rest of the team as well. Brie and Charlie held our newbie hands the whole way through on a process that felt like it took forever. 8 months in total, from the very first email, to the deal that fell through, to the one. Week after week Brie sent us well thought out spreadsheets, teaching us how to analyze deals, what to look for, and how we could add value to properties if we wanted to. Helping us understand different neighborhoods since we were out of state investors hoping to house hack into a pretty great financial situation. They'll explain what they look for with the 1% rule, cash flow, cap rate, and cash on cash return, but also how different locations will impact all of those numbers. And also what properties on the high and low end of the price spectrum will typically get you. Brie & Charlie never rushed us, and in fact steered us away from some bad deals when we were getting impatient to make sure we stayed on track with our original goals. They're super patient with new investors, but know their stuff and I'm sure are equally amazing with seasoned investors too. We'll see once I'm seasoned because I plan to stick with them for life! Feel comfortable asking them questions, asking for vendor referrals, and really anything else. Their referrals are solid and a pleasure to work with as well. They're able to do video tours for out of state folks, and are happy to tour any properties that make sense. When you talk about setting up boots on the ground for your investments, these folks are it.

In fact, there were actually multiple properties she talked us out of putting an offer on. She is not afraid to point out things that she thinks could be issues, and I knew by the end of the home buying process that I could trust her eye for quality.
