He provided myself and my office with all of our insurance options and needs. Alan is always available to answer any questions we have and has even gone as far as contacting the insurance company directly for me when he felt they had miscommunicated certain benefits after I moved out of state (and it turned out they had). He is helpful beyond measure and a true example of what an insurance agent should be. I wholeheartedly recommend Alan Sussman of Farmers Insurance for all of your insurance needs. Thank you for your extensive help over the years, Alan!

Karen Ayers is a great agent, with a great staff, that works to assist you in getting the right coverage, and is there to help you through your claim. We recently had a pipe burst in our kitchen, and we ran into a snag with our claim. All it took was for me to update Kristina and Karen, and Karen was making calls and sending emails. The claim is coming to a good closure, and we cannot thank Karen and Kristina enough for all of their help. If you are looking for a State Farm Agent, Karen is that agent for you. Thanks Karen and Kristina!!

I've lived in Edgewater for 40 years, and Karen Ayers is widely respected here--not just for her…read morebusiness, but for how she supports our community's diversity. I have been a client of hers for 25 years, and she is truly the best in the business. We started with a basic renter's policy and, as life progressed, Karen handled everything from our auto insurance to our homeowners and landlord liability once we purchased our apartment building. As a landlord, I require my tenants to carry renters' insurance; it is so affordable for the safety it provides. While I don't mandate that they use Karen, I've never had a tenant decline her services when I suggest her office. For many, it's their first time dealing with insurance, which can be overwhelming. Karen provides me with professional "getting started" packets for prospective tenants, and the feedback I receive is that the info is very helpful during the stress of moving. She makes the process easy to understand as they begin their journey toward financial safety. On the rare occasion we've had to file a claim, Karen's office provides true "white glove" treatment, taking the stress out of the situation and handling every detail with care. Whether you are a first-time renter or a long-time property owner, you won't find better service across the Chicago north neighborhoods. I also want to give a huge shout-out to her AMAZING staff. They are the reason this is a worry-free business. Their communication is incredibly proactive; I never have to follow up because they are always the ones reaching out to me first. It is their dedication and attention to detail that truly sets this agency apart. On a personal note, Karen and her team are just so very kind. In stressful situations, such as when you need to file a claim, kindness combined with top-level communication is the best thing a person could ask for. Thank you, Karen, for your dedication and for your wonderful staff.

I reached out to a few business on Yelp and was a bit hesitant with Build Accounting at first due to the lack of Yelp reviews and this being such a personal / potentially costly experience. Brett, the owner of Build Accounting, was immediately responsive and I saw that he has great Google reviews (& a LinkedIn, making him more legitimate) so I decided to move forward. I was on a tight 9 day timeline due to filing for the extension + had intricacies in my taxes from a couple of real estate transactions and multiple jobs in the year. Brett was extremely helpful, explained all the necessary documents, set up a shared doc as a check list and a shared folder to virtually upload everything requested. He was also immediately response and flexible with my work schedule to hop on calls as needed. Prior to submitting we virtually met via video and he walked through the details of the return making sure one last time that everything was correct and answering any questions. I received a few quotes and Brett's were very reasonable especially with the timeline and number of documents required. After everything was submitted he's also continued to keep me updated throughout the Federal/State approval process and when I should be receiving my return -- Extremely impressed with Brett at Build Accounting and will absolutely be using him each year!
