Preparing for an out-of-state move and navigating everything in selling our home could have been incredibly stressful, but Dave and Amy made it all very manageable and gave me a sense of peace through it all. I met with them months in advance after being referred to them by a good friend who also sold their house in Wilmette. Dave and Amy guided me in every single step from the very beginning. They connected us with great contractors to completely renovate our master bathroom and gave advice with purging and bringing belongings to a storage unit. In preparation for the listing, they helped with every aspect, big or small, including installing new light fixtures and blinds. Amy and her team, including their assistant Tara, then did a phenomenal job with staging our house, making it look like a magazine! And Dave was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful with every financial aspect, including list price, negotiating offers, and closing the deal, always making us feel like he was looking out for our best interests. Every time I called or texted them, no matter how big or small the issue, they responded right away and with such kindness, wisdom, and understanding. Even after we moved out of state, they generously picked up packages mistakenly still shipped to our old address. And at our new house, they sent a gorgeous gift box. My friend was right - "There's no question who to use as a realtor...Dave and Amy Chung." I couldn't agree more. Thank you, Dave and Amy, for everything you did to help us through it all! We couldn't be more grateful.

He took the time to understand our needs, answered every question, and made sure we felt comfortable throughout the entire process. What really stood out was Dave's dedication and commitment. He was always available when we needed him, kept us informed every step of the way, and handled every challenge with professionalism and confidence. We always knew he had our best interests at heart. Buying and selling a home can be overwhelming, but Dave made the experience much less stressful. His expertise, integrity, and genuine care for his clients set him apart. We are so grateful for everything he did for us and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional real estate agent.

We heard about Ryan and Starting Point Realty through Reddit and could not be happier with our…read moreexperience. We moved to the area from out of state, and Ryan helped us every step of the way, from finding a short-term rental to finding our home and closing. What stood out most was how genuinely he cared about us. From day one, he treated us like longtime friends rather than clients. He also has an incredible network of people he trusts, and you could tell he genuinely cared about making sure everything was done right. Simply put, Ryan is knowledgeable, responsive, trustworthy, and a genuinely good dude. We would recommend him and his team to anyone looking for a realtor!

Ryan Gable from Starting Point Realty was our agent when we were shopping for a house. We're first…read moretime home buyers, and even though we did as much self-learning education we could, he taught us there was always more and more to learn during the home buying process. Even though we had a hard time deciding between single family homes (Detached) and town homes/Condos (Attached), Ryan was always patient with us. He was with us every step of the way with great insights on affordability, explaining how home offers work, even when we decided to switch our search locations! No matter the twists and turns we presented (I'm sorry Ryan!!), Ryan stood by our side the entire process. In fact, he was a mentor for us, who went to essentially EVERY single house we wanted to see, who gave valuable opinions and insights on every home and even the area where the home was located. He checked in with us and made sure we actually loved the house instead of pushing us towards a home to make a quick sale. Ryan is the kind of real estate agent you would want; patient, will educate you during the whole process, and will ensure you're taken care of during the whole process!

They are extremely responsive, friendly, and proactive. We investigated a number of realtors before choosing Sarah Leonard team. We appreciated that Tori was energized, realistic, honest, and very detail oriented. She gave us the confidence that with the right amount of tender loving care that we could sell our place at the price we were hoping for. Also, even a week after we first talked to her, she still remembered our "one burned out light bulb" in the hallway and reminded us to replace it! This level of attention impressed us greatly. They have a network of providers that will do a great job at a reasonable cost for getting your place ready to sell. We used their preferred painter, carpet installer, carpet cleaning, window repair, and moving service. All did great work on schedule and for the right price! To top it off, our closing occurred in the middle of the pandemic when Naperville closed for business and so many other things shut down. They worked as a team, including the attorney which they recommended to us, to navigate around the challenges and we closed on schedule. Could not be happier with my experience!

We met with John R. who was an absolute blast to work with--so knowledgeable of every property we looked at and patient as we worked our way through the list. John happened to know of a property that wasn't even listed on the rental market yet and called the owners to find out they were just planning to list it. We drove over right away, fell in love with our dream home and applied that day. Within two days, the apartment was ours. We would have never found it without John. He has our highest recommendation.

Well, I haven't had my appointment yet and I'm already disappointed with the level of service. I…read morefilled out an appointment application about 2 weeks ago and opted to view all neighborhoods; all except west and south loop, streeterville, and gold cost. The website told me I would receive a call from a representative to confirm my appointment. A week went by and I still didn't receive a call, so I contacted them. I spoke with Beth (I believe) who told me I didn't receive a call because the Evanston agents only cover the Skokie-Rogers Park-Evanston area. According to her, they don't want their agents "stepping on each others territory." She listed off a few other excuses that she didn't seem too confident about before I decided to end the call. Am I wrong for assuming all of your locations operate under the company? It would've been nice if this were stated on your site or if someone could've contacted me to let me know. Or at the very least forward my info to the Lakeview office. Instead I waited a whole week when I could have used that time to search myself. I spoke with Beth again today and I just don't think this lady is cut out for client interactions. In short, she rushed me through the phone call (which was only 3 minutes long) and kept cutting me off. At one point she even said "I have another call on hold." I have an appointment set up through Bernard at the Lakeview Location, which sounds much more promising. I'll still go to my Evanston appointment and hope that I'll have a better in-person experience.

We visited as prospective residents, so I'll tell you my experience…read more This is an apartment building that was originally built to be condos. I say that because it feels more like condos than apartments. It's 1 large building in the downtown Des Plaines area. There really isn't much outdoor space dedicated to this building, so basically go in and go to your unit. There's not much community space inside either, except for a small gym. They have several different layout types and sizes for the units. We went into 1 model and loved it. It was really nice inside. The problem we really had was the lack of community and community space. As we explored other apartments they have more to offer to their community, have more community space, and more things to do. One last thing. This may be a good thing or bad thing, but they are pretty much at capacity with units, meaning they don't really have a lot of vacancies. If you find one available and you like it snatch it up because it probably won't last long.

Despite having moved to California over 10 years ago and losing contact with the area, I was relieved to find their number when an important personal document was mistakenly sent to Maple Grove. Mike comforted me and took it upon himself to coordinate with the current tenant and shipping services to retrieve and return my document. As an alumni tenant who graduated 10 years ago, I was impressed by his warmth, responsibility, and professionalism. I am grateful for his exceptional service and would highly recommend TLC Management.

This apartment honestly is not even worth 1 star…read more Why? Incompetent management, billing nightmares, and zero accountability. After four years as a tenant, I can confidently say Maple Grove Apartments is not worth the rent. The property management here is completely incompetent, neglectful, and will waste hours of your life fixing mistakes they created. The billing and management issues are constant and exhausting. Here is why i say that: 1. Double-billing and losing my parking spot: I had to fight management for months because they were double-charging me for parking fees. I called every single day for a month just to get someone to fix their mistake. Their "solution"? Once they finally corrected the fee, they completely reassigned my spot to another resident while continuing to collect my monthly parking payment. I am currently paying for a spot I have zero access to because management gave it away. 2. Double-counted utilities: The parking fiasco isn't an isolated billing issue. Over the years, they have also repeatedly double-billed utilities on my ledger. You have to keep an eye on it every month - it's like a game, you never know when and where their new mistakes appear. 3. Ghosting and false advertising: They advertise a $500 (initially $750) resident referral bonus throughout the hallways, yet they completely refuse to pay out when you actually refer someone. I spent a whole year arguing on this - they always say yea I will look into it. Truth is they never did. So honestly they still owe me this $500 after 2 and a half years. 4. Complete lack of professionalism: At one point of time, I tried to transfer and scheduled a tour for a 2-bedroom unit, got scheduled a tour and everything. On the day of, management stood me up, never replied to explain why they didn't show, and later acted completely clueless when confronted in person, claiming they had no memory of the confirmed appointment. 5. Management ignores emails entirely. The only way to get anything acknowledged is by relentlessly calling them every day, and even when an issue is supposedly "resolved," they immediately invent a new headache. Honestly, Maple Grove doesn't charge little. You would think by paying this much, you'd get some decent service, truth is you get NONE. If you plan to live here for a short period, it's probably fine. But if you plan to live for more than a year, you should prepare for the upcoming countless battles to fight on lots of charging issues and management mistakes. So conclusion - Do not move here, the exorbitant rent does not match the bottom-tier service and constant administrative. negligence.
