Real Estate Agents near Des Plaines, IL

“Hi Basel,
I want to take a moment to express my gratitude and appreciation for the exceptional real estate experience you recently facilitated. Your professionalism and knowledge of the industry is remarkable. The trusted relationships you share with other professionals proved to be extremely beneficial. Your ability to read the “surface of the water”, adapt and react to the changing contractual landscape was impressive. You are a master of your craft!
For those of you reading this review- I met Basel several years ago as he represented me on the purchase of a residential property. The entire transaction was top-notch from start to finish. I found Basel to be honest, hardworking, and passionate about his work; quite a “go-getter”. His concern was about me and my needs; not just making a sale. He went to inordinate lengths to be sure the property I purchased was the right fit for me and my family. I felt like he was working 24/7 just for me. I was amazed at his integrity during the entire process.
Recently, I approached Basel to engage with a corporate property purchase. This corporate purchase was much different than my residential purchase, but Basel handled the transaction seamlessly. I could not be happier. His expertise in the corporate arena was just as perfect as in the residential arena.
Basel was born into thriving real estate legacy. I have heard him say “The essence of real estate is ingrained in his roots.” Basel is part of the Re/Max Diamond Club and has accrued many additional certifications and accolades.
Basel has become my go-to person for any real estate opportunity. His professionalism, integrity and hard work are very admirable. I can unequivocally refer Basel as an excellent agent/broker. I have referred him to many family members, friends and patients with equally great success. Basel, you represent the real estate market so well. Thank you for all you do, and for being the consummate professional”

“We had such a positive and seamless experience working with Lisa to purchase our first home. Her expertise and knowledge of the area helped us find our dream home in a few short months! She was always available for showings and questions, and she patiently guided us through the whole process. I couldn't recommend her more and look forward to working with her again one day!”

“Joe is a Pro. Joe is an expert in his field and is very knowledgeable about the real estate market. He guided us through the process and helped us choose the best offer and avoid pitfalls. He also has a network of other professionals he works with that you can have full confidence in choosing if you need help preparing your property for sale. We used an independent contractor we met through Joe for a variety of work including electrical and painting and couldn't be more pleased at the prices we paid for top-quality work.When we have a property for sale in the future we will be going with Joe for sure.”

“I used Aleksandr as my buying agent in 2024. In 2025 I hired him again as my selling agent. Needless to say, that I was more than satisfied with the services he has provided me (you don't hire someone again if you are not happy with the service). I also referred him to a couple friends of mine and I will continue to recommend him in the future if someone I know might need a good and reliable real estate broker. Highly recommended.”

“Is was a Tuesday at 10 a.m. and my daughter and I were looking at my condo listed with North Shore Holdings LTD after 8 months of searching with no luck... and we were tenants there by 4pm. It was that easy ... it was that nice.
That was 2019.
In my 57 years of life I've moved maybe at least 15 times ... and have never and probably won't ever again have better landlords. My condo was so well kept, everything felt new, my daughter just looked at me and was like 'Mom we need this to be our home' ... and the last 6 years have been 100% situation free. It could be a Sunday at 11:00 p.m. and you don't wait more than an hour to get a reply from email or text. They have a group of people that work for them, one with a specialty in every category. The plumber, the appliance guy, the Mr fix-it guy and all of them are at your disposal and jump when hearing Ken with North Shore Holdings LTD name. You wait the least amount of time to get anything taken care of. They are attentive, responsive, professional, kind, helpful ... Jim always had my back (dealing with the first association in my building wasn't always easy. There's was a much better association upon leaving) and as long as there weren't any problems, they leave you alone, they are just there when you need them. I will never have as good of landlords as Ken and Jim.
It was actually pretty sad to even have to leave.

I promise you an amazing experience staying with them, they take very good care of you. They really deserve 10 stars.
Thanks Ken
Thanks Jim

“I've sold real estate before, but this place is unlike any other office. Professional marketing and smart negotiation. I had a very high number of showings the first weekend on the market. Tom, the Broker, is very responsive and a great negotiator, I had a on-time closing, and he give me a nice discount at the closing. They not a major franchise name so the cost is much lower. I am very happy with their service.”

“Cristina is simply the best of the best. My husband and I are so grateful for her help in the process. As first time home buyers, she answered every question we had - as farfetched or silly they may have been (ahem "wired sinks" whoops!). She walked us through multiple homes, offered recommendations for ways we can make the home our own based on our aesthetic, and helped us keep a clear and open mind in the decision making process. She was honest and looked out for our best interests always.
She went above and beyond for us when negotiating for homes - and her network in the Chicago suburbs is incredible.

I can say this confidently - CRISTINA IS YOUR GIRL IN REAL ESTATE!!! She worked tirelessly for us, and helped us find our dream home. Thank you, thank you, thank you for everything! We will be recommending you and your team to everyone we meet!”

“After my mom passed I had to figure out what to do with everything in her condo of 20+ years. I didn’t even know where to start. Praveen helped me develop a plan of attack, guiding me through each step. And calmly reassuring me every step of the way.
Once the place was empty he knew exactly what we needed to do to get top dollar. His knowledge of current trends and what sells quickest was spot on. A fresh coat of paint including the cabinets and new carpeting made a huge difference and Praveen knew exactly the right colors to go with. He has a network of dedicated professionals at very reasonable prices, which greatly helped every step in this process.

His listing was beyond anything I’d ever seen from the pictures to the description. And the day he listed it he had immediately scheduled 10 showings in the next few days. As it turned out the very first people immediately put in an offer for $15,000 over asking price. And we pushed the asking price to the limit.

Praveen’s passion and dedication to his work is palpable. He’s the first to admit he’s a perfectionist. And it shows. I cannot recommend him enough and look forward to his help selling our house in the future.”

“I have known Jen for years now and I can truly say that she cares about her clients and does what's best for them. Jen is very knowledgeable when it comes to selling and buying homes. She stays on top of the market and knows a lot of people/contractors in the industry. Call Jen if you are looking to either buy a home or sell the home you're living in now.”

“Working with Kisha Parks Jones was a wonderful experience. She is a very dedicated realtor and answered all of my questions. She was patient and thorough in every step of the process. I highly recommend working with Kisha!”

“Hello,

I recently sold my home of 10 years using the team of Dawn and Josh Simmons / REMAX. When I interviewed them before hiring, they both had a deep knowledge of the northwest suburban real estate market. They brought comps and a portfolio of sales they had done. They came prepared to earn my business.
They were especially keen on what they thought I could list my home for in order to get the most value from the current market. Importantly, they had recent sales that backed up their suggested listing price for my home.

They were right!

They had professional photos taken that made the house shine. Josh did a great on camera walk through video to generate excitement and attract buyers.

I had 25 showings in 2 days.
I had multiple over asking price offers.
Dawn and Josh knew the market and the value of my home. We had a spectacular response.”

Being a previous homeowner and having other realtor experiences, I can 100% recommend Perfecto to all my friends and family. He makes sure to represent and lookout for his customer at all times throughout the process. Thank you Perfecto for helping with the purchase of my new home be such a great experience!”

“Prarie Dental, Dr. Golshani is fabulous. I wish I knew her 20yrs ago. I used to get white knuckles- hold my breath- panic attacks - dreaded going to the dentist. Dr Golshani makes it so easy, relaxing. I recommend her 100%.”

“After our parents passed, my brother and I kept the home/house we grew up in as a rental. When it came time to sell it, our vision was clouded by history, and the preferences of retired guys. For us it was a home & not a building. Marco helped us choose a decorating scheme that attracted contemporary buyers and suggested a way to stage the living room that we couldn’t have dreamed of. After the prep, he had 2 offers after 7 showings. One of them was full price and “as is”. Marco helped with negotiations after the village’s pre-sale inspection came back with requirements that would be found in new construction and were not common when the home was built in 1950. The house was listed after Labor Day and closed at the end of October. I recommend Marco as a realtor and would not look anywhere else. Commission, Service, Guidance, and Results all Exceeded Expectations.”

“Sarah is a fantastic realtor. She has an eye for which houses could be transformed into your dream home. She is knowledgeable and dedicated to finding the perfect home for her clients. I would highly recommend Sarah!”

Thank you for all of your hard work and assistance.”

“Just had a good conversation with Lori on the phone. Very professional. Felt she is a hard working, kind, honest, person. Took the time to talk with me and share even though I was trying to sell something to her.”
