We had an incredible experience working with David. From start to finish, he went above and beyond. His responsiveness, attention to detail, and knowledge of the market made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and well-managed. David was always available to answer questions (and I had a lot of them as a first time home buyer), provided honest feedback, and always advocated for our best interests. We were always treated as a priority and he made us feel confident in every decision along the way. We couldn't recommend him more. read more

David is the rare agent who thinks like a financial strategist. We first worked with him years ago when he helped us buy our property in Chicago. We trusted him so much that we came back when it was time to sell. Both transactions had real challenges. But David's 15+ years of experience showed every step of the way. He has a sharp understanding of market timing, pricing strategy, and marketing. These things matter enormously in a market as competitive as Chicago's. On both the buy and sell side, he knew when to push and when to wait. He knew how to position the property to get the result we wanted. What really sets David apart is his network. He connected us with loan officers, attorneys, inspectors, and photographers he genuinely trusts. This took so much stress out of the process. We didn't have to vet everyone ourselves. Everyone he referred us to was professional and reliable. David treats your transaction like it's his own investment. We're grateful to have worked with him twice. We wouldn't hesitate to do it a third time. read more

David was absolutely outstanding! This review is coming exactly one year after closing.. but truly it was a remarkably rewarding experience and I cannot recommend working with him enough! It was my first buying process and he was patient, kind, knowledgeable and above all wonderfully honest with me every step of the way. His guidance was extremely valuable and every point matched up to the expectations he had sat with me and I am so appreciative. He gave feedback and advice, that I am still using to this day! I love my home and I cannot wait for the opportunity to work again with him on future home buying transactions. Again, truly above and beyond and I am so grateful to have had his services while navigating what can be a very tricky, new experience. read more

I first wrote with a request to show the apartment, we even agreed on a time, but then he started ignoring me because I asked to switch to WhatsApp messenger. I now understand that this is due to frequent scams, but I asked only for personal comfort. Then I offered to provide a photo of my student ID by mail and a passport when we meet, but he said that he would check my phone, but he couldn't even do that properly! He called me a bad actor! He said that my number was not registered in my name. In short, if you want to get an incompetent and rude agent, you have come to the right place! All the best! read more

David Dufault is the best agent I've ever hired! He has a humble, yet strong confidence about him that is perfectly integral with the best levels of professionalism, character and experience. He has gone over and beyond for me and came out on top, in comparison to other agents of the past! Even down to the smallest detail, David is thorough! His photographer is absolutely amazing and offers a better eye/perspective then most I've seen. If you want the job done right, get true expert advice and high level service, then put your trust in David!!! Best agent I EVER worked with! read more

David went above and beyond to help us relocate to Chicago from California and find the perfect home. Not knowing anything about the city he shared great insight and knowledge of our prospective neighborhoods. We completely trusted him and it couldn't have worked out better. read more

If only they had 6-7-8 stars.......David is a dream realtor that will help anyone who is buying or selling their home in Chicago. His huge knowledge base of the different neighbourhoods of the city and his expertise at listening to his client's wants and needs helps make the process painless and enjoyable! Give David a call and you'll never go wrong! read more

I cannot rate David highly enough. He was our real estate agent last year as first-time home buyers also expecting our first baby. David was careful to explain every step of the process, and balanced perfectly the delicate line between supporting our decisions and preferences while giving us honest feedback about certain properties. He was incredibly responsive, always in-contact, and always found an answer for us when we reached out with questions. We never felt pressured to make a decision. Even when, earlier this year, we had an issue with our new Jefferson Park condo and needed consulting on our contract, he responded right away and went above and beyond to help us resolve it. David is also just a great, sweet guy. :) We are so incredibly happy with our first home, and we will definitely be contacting David when it comes time for us to make our next move!! read more

David did a great job pricing my condo so that it didn't sit on the market, and negotiating a sales price I was more than happy with. He was easy to work with and very responsive to my many questions and concerns. He has an excellent sense of design and his recommendations for cosmetic improvements were invaluable. read more

Can I tell you about David? Rental or purchase (I've done both with him) Dave is probably the most flexible and professional person I have ever met. He can and should hold a clinic on how real estate is done read more

David help me negotiate a great deal. He is very reliable and even helped me after deal closed with my needs for renovation and rental. Thank you for all your help. Highly recommended! read more

David was my realtor when buying my first condo in Chicago. He was extremely responsive and always had my best interests in mind. Not once did I feel any pressure to hurry up and buy so he could move on to the next sale. He wanted me to be 100% satisfied with my first purchase, and it showed. If you're looking for a smooth home-buying experience, look to David! read more

David was there for me from start to finish. He knew everyone I needed to get my place ready to sell and worked with me through every aspect of selling my property. David's kindness and helpful demeanor made me feel more like a close friend than a client. I highly recommend him for buying and selling any property! read more

My husband and I worked with David on getting our dream condo and he couldn't have been more helpful, professional and prepared. David gave us super helpful insight and advice throughout the process and it totally made us feel at ease knowing his guidance was transparent and honest. We 100% recommend working with David and highly suggest seeking him out during the trying times of finding a new home. read more

I HIGHLY recommend David DuFault! My 1 bed/1 bath apartment in Lakeview sold much faster than I anticipated and suddenly I was in a rush to figure out where to next?! The clock was ticking and let's just say I was **incredibly stressed**. I truly lucked out when I met David DuFault at a random Redfin showing in Lakeview. It wasn't the right apartment but it was sure the right agent for me!! What makes David great? He is patient! He is extremely attentive. He gives advice, but not in a heavy handed way. He is readily available which is KEY, especially when you're working against an aggressive timeline like I was. He's honest - if you're going to make a big investment don't you want to be working with someone who tells it like it is? And he's not going to give up until you've found the home that you love. What more can you ask for in an agent? I'm hoping to stay put in my new condo for many years but when/if I decide to look again, I'll most certainly be reaching out to David! read more

David is a magician. This gets said metaphorically about people all the time, but in this case I have no choice but to speak literally because magic is the only thing that explains David's results. We approached David when choosing to sell our condo, and based in prior experiences with realtors, frankly weren't expecting much. David blew us away. He came to our unit, assessed the space, and spent an hour and a half giving us genius advice for staging every single room, closet, nook and cranny. His tricks were super-affordable, but transformed every room into one we honestly didn't want to leave. We found ourselves sorry we didn't know that for so little money, we could have been living in such an upgraded space! More importantly, his advice helped make our place appealing to buyers. We had no idea how selling our unit would go, particularly after hearing from friends who used other realtors and in the same market, could not seem to sell their (more desirable) units. Thanks to David's diligence, legwork, skills and whatever that secret sauce of his is, we had an offer in less than 24 hours of our first showing. Our place sold for WAY more than we expected, and and we closed three weeks later with no hiccups. Buying and selling property is honestly emotional and David also was incredible at supporting us and keeping us positive when we felt unsure or anxious about the process. He was impeccable, worked with the utmost integrity, and made the process painless. I have been recommending him to friends and family since working with him this past August and September, and I know you'll be as happy with your experience as we were. There are lots of realtors out there, but they just don't compare. Start to finish, he's simply the best! read more

David is an outstanding broker! He takes a true personal interest in his clients and goes the extra mile to ensure that no detail is ever overlooked. Not only did he show us properties, he made several recommendations on the best fit for us. I would work with him again in a heartbeat! read more

David was quick to set-up viewings and was always available, even on short notice. He communicated frequently throughout the process. He also brought up important details during showings that we did not think of (i.e. valet vs. self parking, fees for single vs. family rates.) Thank you for all the help and hard work David! read more

Dave is awesome! He is knowledgeable, responsible, fast, efficient, and on top of that, he is super nice..... Pretty much the whole package! read more

I can't say enough nice things about David. He held my boyfriend and my hands as we went through the process of buying our first condo. David was patient and great at communication, responding to every question we had and texting us at all times of the day/evening to update us along our process. He genuinely cared about us as people and making sure we found the right place for us and was just as excited as we were when the right place came along. He never shied away from giving us his honest opinion and he obviously loves his job and getting to help people find the perfect home. David also is full of great advice and recommendations on home improvement and upping market value. Through him we found a great moving company and a great HVAC company to replace our AC/Furnace. He even once took time out of his busy day to go to our condo and check to make sure the fridge/freezer was working properly while we were in the negotiation process! We really loved working with David and felt so comfortable and well taken care of through the whole process. Anyone would be lucky to have this kind, knowledgeable, and generous realtor working for them! read more

David goes all in for his clients. He's savvy, really smart, kind, committed to his clients, and (bonus!) funny. We had one week to find an apartment in Chicago and David was there for us every step of the way. He communicated early and often, thought outside the box and found us a great place we love, allowing us to make a crucial school-registration deadline for our son. Whew and thank you. One of David's best quality is is his amazing eye and design sensibility, which allows him to see the possibilities tailored for each client. Additionally, he helped acclimate us to our new neighborhood and even taught us about the life-changing ParkChicago app. David guided us through an excellent Chicago real estate experience. read more

We love the condo that David helped us get, and we truly thank him for all his support and help throughout the home-buying process! read more
