I…read morehappened to call a local Coldwell Banker office and Sandra Edwards- Martin answered the phone. I explained my husband and I were looking for a realtor to help us sell our home. I remember thinking how attentive and patient she was during our conversation and that put me at ease. After discussing her credentials we proceeded to schedule an appointment. Upon our first meeting she came ready to work and access the damage. We knew our home needed work and Sandra gave us some "tough love" ideas and assignments. She was so professional and yet friendly and told us what we needed to do to get the best value for our home. What I also like about Sandra is how she'd make suggestions and ask for our input. She made us feel as though we were a part of the process and not just sitting on the sideline, even though we usually leaned in her favor. Although Sandra had other clients and responsibilities she was accessible and proactive. She's extremely skilled in the market and very conscientious. She has a very keen sense for detail that I've truly learned to appreciate. She doesn't settle for mediocrity and that's an invaluable quality in any real estate agent. We've since met Sandra's requirements and recommendations and we're beyond pleased. Sandra's an excellent Real Estate Agent and I would put her up against any top agent in the country. That's just how great she is!!!!!!!

Catherine Boyle is an exceptional real estate agent, and I feel incredibly fortunate that she…read morehelped me find my first condo. She was attentive and responsive every step of the way, moving quickly to schedule viewings and making sure I never missed an opportunity. As a top-tier agent, she also has access to pocket listings and properties that may not yet be widely available. As a first-time buyer, I especially appreciated Catherine's patience and willingness to explain every step of the real estate process. She made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel manageable and connected me with a stellar real estate attorney and a top-notch home inspector. Catherine also brings a unique level of expertise to home evaluations. Because she comes from a family of home builders, she understands construction and knows exactly what to look for. She noticed important details that helped steer me away from properties that looked beautiful on the surface but had issues I never would have recognized on my own. When it was time to make an offer, Catherine suggested thoughtful ways to help me stand out and convince the seller that I was the right buyer. In Chicago's competitive real estate market, those small but strategic details can make all the difference--and they helped seal the sale. Catherine is kind, thorough, responsive and exceptionally knowledgeable about the Chicago real estate market, pricing, construction quality and negotiation. I truly felt that I was in excellent hands throughout the entire process. You cannot go wrong with Catherine Boyle as your real estate agent. She is a true gem!

Within a week we updated and added newer appliances for the photo shoot. His recommendations paid off when he listed it at a price we agreed upon and within a day, there was a serious offer for the property. Dave guided us through the process with the help of his assistant to complete some additional minor repairs following the inspection. Dave's advice, experience and knowledge of real estate in the Orland Park area proves he is a true Real Estate Professional. Dave was always available to answer any questions or concerns during the process and stayed in contact through the home closing process. We believe you cannot find a more dedicated agent and Realtor team to sell your home.

While she seemed pleasant I didn't like the fact that she showed me properties that were in questionable areas and appeared somewhat dilapidated. I also found it odd that she gave me the info of an inspector she was familiar with and had used in the past. I always prefer an outside independent home inspector so you can be assured they'll be more honest and transparent. In the end I don't recommend her because I felt she didn't work hard enough for me as a client. Buying your first home should be a good experience but it didn't turn out that way, and unfortunately I can't recommend this realtor. That's just my personal experience I thought I'd share.

Mind you we have no contingency are pre-approved and will put 14k dollars earnest money and will close as soon as they want. Nancy still refuses the offer. She still is showing the house which makes me think there is no other offer. She is holding the property ransom and I am wondering if the seller even knows it. I have been told she only let's a certain type of people buy the house.
