REVIEWS
Angelique was an amazing broker. She was very knowledgeable, patient , and kind. All traits of a wonderful individual. The process was very smooth and easy to say the least. Angelique goes above and beyond for her clients. I love my purchase it was definitely the right fit for me. I honestly could not have found my dream home without her. I recommend her to all of my family and friends, and anyone who is looking to buy their next dream home.
Ann and I had such a great experience working with Jimmy & Karen when we sold our house. We found a new house and needed to get our house on the market quickly, but also get top dollar. Jimmy & Karen met with us, assessed our house and provided clear ideas of how to prepare our house to be listed. They gave us suggestions of some small things (decluttering and fixing a few minor things) that would allow us to get a higher sale price for our home. They helped us stage our house using the furniture/decor we had. Karen is a gifted photographer and took wonderful pictures of our home for the listing, as well as enlisting a drone service for ariel photos. Once our house went on the market, we had immediate and steady showing scheduled. Karen was in always in constant communication with us as the showings proceeded and assisted in negotiations with potential buyers. After the weekend our house was listed and Karen & Jimmy hosting an open house, the end result was multiple offers. They walked us through each of the offers and in the end we accepted an offer that was $30,000 over our asking price. Ann and I elated that our home sold so quickly AND for more than our asking price. This allowed us to fully proceed with the purchase of our new home. Karen & Jimmy walked us through ever step right through the closing. Having sold several homes in our lifetimes, working with Karen & Jimmy was by far the best experience we have ever had. Whether you are selling or buying a home, we would highly recommend working with Karen & Jimmy.
Lesly, I just want to thank you for all the hard work you have provided to me for all the stress you have taken away. I don’t think I could have done it without you! You are by far one of the best agents I have ever worked with, and I’m definitely going to keep you on file so I could use your services again. I highly recommend you and wish there were more kind people like you. Can’t thank you enough!!
It's too bad the rating system doesn't go to 7 stars! Ashley deserves all the stars and more. Our home was a solid single family residence but it needed some TLC to show at its best. Ashley recognized the diamond in the rough and provided suggestions on how to best prepare for listing day. At our initial meeting it was obvious that Ashley knew the real estate business and its current state very well. After only a minute of consultation between my spouse and I, we confidently hired Ashley to handle everything. We adopted all of her recommendations, and come listing day we had two offers. With her experience and expertise we were able to choose which offer would be the most advantageous to achieve a smooth, trouble free closing,maximizing our settlement; which is exactly what happened! My spouse and I could not give Ashley a stronger recommendation. If you hire her, trust her. She knows what she is doing!
100% recommend Carlos Olvera for anyone looking to purchase a home, this guy is the real deal! VERY professional and hard working gentleman.
Beth, I want to thank you for all you have done for me - it has been a delight! What a pleasure to have someone who enjoys their job, will go out of their way to help - will gladly answer phone calls and walk me through the whole process. Thanks especially for the help and encouragement the night we negotiated the sale and staying with me as I got exasperated near the end - what a bless for you to have a sense of humor and still able to keep a level head! Most of all I’m thrilled that you’ve gotten to see how God has worked this whole process and provided for me what I feel is a miracle of wonderful grace. Such awe and excitement to see God at work! We have some more to go and I look forward to the finish of the sale and the closing.
Working with The HousingCoach, Matt McGrath allowed us to enjoy the most low-pressure house move we have experienced in our adult lives. Matt’s systematic approach and taking the time to explain the process and the expenses and tailoring his services allowing us to add options as we went made us feel like we were in control of the process. Compared to a other Real estate professionals we have worked with, Matt was more professional, more accessible and more flexible, meeting all of our needs.
Angelique Reed is the best realtor we have ever worked with! She went above and beyond for us and would not let up. She held our hand through the entire process and was very informative, educating us on all that we didn't know. There is so much to say about this wonderful person we really appreciate all that Angelique has done for us. She remained in contact well after the process making sure we didn't have any other questions or concerns. She made us feel like family instead of clients. We highly, highly recommend Angelique, she is such a relentless person when it comes to providing her clients with satisfaction. We thank you Angelique!
Karen and Jimmy at Fathom Realty are such a blessing to us- they explain things incredibly well and thoroughly to us in a way we can easily understand and go the extra mile to ensure everyone maintains contact. They also make sure to keep in touch with ALL parties involved in the process as much as possible to have the most up to date information available. I would strongly recommend these guys to anyone for how personable they are and friendly they always are; wouldn't go with anyone else. The process of selling/buying a house doesn't always need to be stressful- Karen and Jimmy make it bearable and actually fun!
Lesly was a life saver! We needed a rental ASAP and she devoted her time in helping us find one. Lesly was very attentive and thorough. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy, sell or rent!
Ashley was referred to me by a realtor I used previously, but had since moved out of state. My mom and I needed to sell her house, as she is moving into a new build. I asked Ashley to come and look over the house and give her expert opinion on what was worth fixing and painting, and what was not in order to get top dollar for her house. She gave me a helpful list and over several months I did everything on the list. She kept in contact and offered advice throughout a 4-5 month period, all before we signed any contract with her. She certainly wasn’t obligated to do so. We just closed on her house yesterday, which we received asking price for, after 2 days on the market. She can stay there until she closes on the new place and finishes moving out. We couldn’t really be happier with how it went. Everything worked out perfectly, and Ashley definitely knows what she’s doing.
Carlos was very attentive and was actively searching for what i needed and wanted in my next home. He also helped me sell my first home and helped me close on my second one all was done on the same day. If you are looking for someone who cares and wants to do good by you and help you get the house of your dreams 10/10 recommended.
We had concerns about selling our 40+ year old home that was well maintained but had a few issues. Beth did an excellent job of guiding us with integrity in the resolution of the issues and in setting a solid price point even as the market fluctuated. Her considerable research and regular follow up meetings gave us a sense of comfort and confidence throughout the process. We especially appreciated her wisdom and experience when it came to evaluating competing offers. As demanding as selling a home can be, we feel fortunate to have had a good experience. Throughout the process the guidance she offered was backed by considerable research. We were very please with the guidance she offered, backed by considerable research and knowledge of the unique market within our neighborhood. Did an exceptional job establishing a solid price price for our home in a fluctuating based on extensive research. Also comparable homes and guidance on negotiations were very helpful. Thank you Beth.
I recently sold my house and would highly recommend my REALTOR, Matt McGrath. He was very helpful and easy to work with. I commend him for the super way he handled everything. This was quite an experience for me. My husband passed away last year, he used to handle all of the financial details in our marriage. I never had to go through this kind of process by myself before. Mr. McGrath explained everything to me. He thoroughly and completely covered everything that I needed to know and guided me through the entire process. It really was a pleasure to work with him.
Having Angelique Reed as a realtor made finding a house to call home peaceful. Her knowledge shows that she is an expertise in the realtor market for all the areas she covers. We were back and forth between different counties. She was able to give us a detailed understanding of each county school district for our children along with the market trends of when it is best to buy a house. Angelique's efficiency was remarkable as we were on crunch time to find a place. She had our paperwork expedited and daily coordinated viewings to get a quick sale. Her proactive approach and response during the process was fantastic. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Angelique as a realtor that is dedicated to helping her customers build confidence in her in finding a home and being satisfied. Angelique assisted my family and I with being comfortable in the Will county area in a beautiful 4 bedroom 2 bath in the Joliet area which provided perfect space, outstanding school district along with a quiet and welcoming community
This couple is such a great team to work with! They are both very compassionate individuals who will put their all into making sure you feel comfortable throughout the selling and buying process. My husband and I met Jimmy a few years back from a referral a friend gave us when we first wanted to move to a new location. Jimmy went out of his way to assure us he would be with us every step of the way. We were not looking at homes locally at that time and he never hesitated to come along with us to see the homes we were looking into. Needless to say timing was not right for us and we chose to wait to sell and move. BUT, we knew exactly who we were going to ask to help us when the timing was right. We are now looking for our dream home again and selling. It has been a delite going through this next chapter of our lives with Jimmy and Karen. We are so thankful that this team has come into our lives! Could not be happier with our decision to have this team work with us. Thank you, Streelman’s.
Lesly was a life saver. She was helpful and kind. We could not have found our new place without her. Highly recommend working with her.
Ashley was great! She helped us through the hectic process of selling our home and we couldn't be more grateful! She timed everything perfectly and we sold our first home and were able to move into our new home without any hiccups in between!
Thank you very much for all your help and support you gave us during the process of looking for our first home. Carlos really took the time to send us lists of houses, and was also always available when we wanted to go see houses! no matter the schedule or the weather he always made it possible! Despite having 1000 questions, he always had an answer for us. He made sure to confirm every detail and always gave us the best attention! We had a wonderful experience and thanks to him and his wonderful team (Liz and the lawyer Diana) we were able to fulfill our dream of buying our first home! Our first home, which we are very happy and content with. Buying a house is a very nice thing, but very stressful if you want to have a good experience. I recommend Carlos!
I couldn't be happier with the help Matt provided me. He was always available and enthusiastic. Matt really took into consideration what I was looking for and found me the perfect house. He went above and beyond. Being a first-time home buyer I was very intimidated by the whole process and Matt took the time to answer all my questions and was very knowledgeable. I'm so grateful to have found him and would recommend Matt to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
This is an easy review to write. We met Karen from an open house. She was friendly, organized and helpful. We were still in the early stages of making the decision to move. She followed up with us but did not hound us. She listened to what we wanted. I appreciated her laid back and friendly approach sending us listings regularly.that could be of interest to us. If she didn't know the answer immediately she found out the answer and let us know in a timely fashion. She was always available to arrange and meet with us for showings when we came to town. We put in an offer on a home and then changed our minds. She gracefully handled it with the sellers agent. When we did find another home to place an offer, she was willing to write it for what we wanted but was there to counsel us if we wanted it. She helped us get pre approved early in the process so when it was time write the offer we had the ground work already in place. She was also helpful in recommending an inspector and lawyer. Buying a home is almost always stressful but Karen's communication skills and attentiveness went a long way to reduce any frustrations. One of my favorite things working with Karen is she made it fun. She's highly competent and caring. I would recommend her to anyone. We also had the privilege of meeting her husband, Jimmy, and thoroughly enjoyed him as well.
Beth, You went above and beyond the call of duty in helping us get ready to list. Your staging advice was perfect. You helped connect us with efficient and reasonably-priced service people to bring the house up showing-quality. You helped us understand the local market. You didn’t over-inflate our house value. You were fun to work with! It hardly seems possible that we were able to sell our house in 14 days in a very bad market, but we know that your expertise and great attitude made it happen!
Lesly is incredible. We met her by chance while viewing a house and she was friendly, knowledgeable, and funny. Lesly brought enthusiasm and optimism to the table and kept our heads in the game until we got the perfect home that checked all of our boxes. Her timely communication and wealth of knowledge eliminated an immense amount of stress and helped us navigate everything that was going on without feeling overwhelmed. We were extremely lucky that Lesly fell into our lives. The weeks prior to acquiring her services were not fun, but the weeks after were exciting and enjoyable. In the end, we really walked away with the best option for us and none of that would have been possible without her. If you want professionalism and someone who truly cares about you and your search for a home, Lesly is it. She’ll be our realtor for years to come. Thank you, Lesly!
Ashley, I’m so glad that I took your phone call then and you guided me friendly and professionally throughout the process of selling my House. I can only say a job well done and I will highly recommend you to anyone who is interested in the Sale of their home. Thanks again
If your looking to buy a house I definitely recommend Carlos!
Beth has helped us buy two homes, found tenants for us twice and sold one home. Easy and seamless transactions each time. Her professionalism and integrity are top notch: she’ll be honest with you instead of telling you what you want to hear to line her own pocket. Plus she knows the market so well she knows what it takes to get it done. Beth has a gift for helping families find the perfect home. And fun to work with!
