Anthem, AZ.

“They say selling a home is one of the most stressful things in life; however, you made it very easy for us. Your knowledge of the Chicago area, and your wisdom and expertise was evident throughout the sales process. We appreciated your unrelentless sales passion throughout the selling process. Not only did you exhibit flawless professionalism, but also you went above and beyond. In a tough market with a lot of inventory, you were able to set our unit apart with great advertising and outstanding customer service resulting in a fast sell. Thank you is not enough to convey how happy we are with the whole process as well as the end result”.

“You really went above and beyond to make the experience as painless as it could be for me. Your contacts and marketing approach proved that you could sell my condo in a slow market. You always had my best interest at heart. I couldn’t have done it without you”

Playa Delray, Ca.

I wanted to thank you briefly for your unparalleled “never give up” attitude with my condo on La Salle. You went out of your way to help me SO MANY TIMES and I am very appreciative of the extra effort you put into selling my unit when I lived so far away. Thank you again for you tremendous efforts.

“You spent a tremendous amount of time and effort over several months in order to ensure that we found the house that was right for us. You took the time to really get to know us and understand our tastes. Once you got to know us, you always showed us places that we could see ourselves in. You never tried to convince us to bid on a place that was not right for us.

I would  (and do) highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a new home. I doubt that they would be able to find a better real estate agent”.

“Throughout the entire transaction of our sale -from placing our condominium on the market, to the final contract for sale, Carla and Jim Walker were there for us: answering numerous questions, acting as cheerleaders and giving us all the support we needed, therefore making for a very smooth transition.

The buying of our new home evolved into a rather complex and lengthy red tape situation, whereby Carla took charge and in a matter of hours literally saved our purchase contract. Her consistent dedication to our situation and continued perseverance helped us get through some very frustrating moments. We are more than happy to recommend both Carla and Jim to anyone who is looking for consummate professionals in the Chicago real estate market.  We cannot imagine how we could have managed these past few months without them”

 

Dr. Irvin D. Reid  (Buyer)
Wayne State University, Mi.

‘We had known many agents in real estate but had never met someone so professional, good-natured, hardworking, patient and understanding. From our initial phone conversation it was clear that we had the good fortune of someone who loved her work, took pride in her professionalism and cherished principles of commitment and devotion to her clients.

We saw countless properties during the time we worked with Carla. The end of this story is that within less than a four-month period, Carla assisted us in our decision to purchase not one, not two, but three condos all in Streeterville. She has never suggested needs that we did not have or failed to provide us assistance that we needed. Would I recommend her to others? Absolutely, although we would always expect what we will remain her number one customer. I suspect this it the sentiment of all of her customers.”

 

Mary Ellen Martin (Buyer)
Chicago, IL

“I was a first- time home buyer with a tight budget looking in a very competitive market. In said market, any good opportunity would be lost to he who hesitated. I had searched for properties previously with other agents but became frustrated because of their lack of follow through and slow reaction to my requests. My search was unsuccessful until a friend recommended I contact Carla.

I was immediately impressed by Carla’s professionalism and knowledge of the market.  She exhibited great diligence and tenacity in meeting my requests. She did an excellent job of finding the optimum match of my top criteria with what the market offered. Best of all, Carla maintained a sensitivity to my first-time jitters and had the instincts to know when I needed to contemplate and when I needed encouragement. I am thoroughly pleased with my search experience and would recommend Carla to anybody seeking an agent who will jump through hoops to satisfy her client”.

Silver Spring, MD

“Thank you so much for all your help in selling my unit in James House. We could not have been more pleased with the service that you provided during the rental of the condo; preparing the unit for sale; and eventually handling the sale of the unit. As absentee owners, we were particularly grateful for the initiative that you took in handling a variety of repairs requested by the buyer. Your attention to detail made the entire transaction go much more smoothly than might have been expected. Your continual optimism, good humor and extra efforts throughout the entire process were much appreciated.

We are pleased that you were so successful in handling the sale of both of our Chicago properties.”

“It was our good fortune to be associated with you when began our search for a downtown apartment. When we chose the place we would purchase, you were informative, helpful, direct and honest-how refreshing! Once we made our decision, you communicated with us and made sure that every detail was attended to properly and efficiently. Within a very short time, everything was completed.

We can now enjoy this beautiful apartment knowing that it all began on such a smooth, happy note.”
