When I first considered buying in Oak Park, I met with a few agents, and I have to say that none came close to Chris's general knowledge of the area, the market and his experience. Moving through the buying process was brilliant; I never once felt under pressure, and Chris was always available to view homes or for questions. When it came to making the offer, Chris is definitely the guy you want on your side. read less

I was new to the Oak Park area, and Chris was hands down the most knowledgeable agent I'd spoken with in my house hunt to that point. The home finding / buying process with Chris was fantastic. He was always available for viewings and he quickly got to know my situation and what I was looking for. He would then tailor his recommendations based in that. Once we found the right place, he did an amazing job on the offer and negotiation, ensuring we got the best deal on our condo.I can't recommend Chris highly enough! read less

As first time home buyers, we began this process with a different realtor and did not have a positive experience. We almost walked away from the buying process all together.

Caroline was/is an informative & tenacious realtor. We learned so much about every aspect of the process. She listened to our needs and respected our financial parameters. Caroline was always positive and kept our spirits high. We can not recommend her enough, and if and when we want to sell, she will be our realtor again read less

We spent well over a year looking for a home. Chris was patient and available for showings whenever we requested and sincerely enjoyed viewing and educating his clients on the homes. He provided useful advice based on his experience of showing homes and living in Oak Park. He is also honest and upfront about valuations, neighborhoods and other considerations when viewing and considering a home purchase.

Again a great resource to have when making one of the largest purchases in one's life. Thanks for all of your help. read less
