What My Clients Have To Say
-
In a matter of six months M.K successfully navigated a difficult real estate climate in personally representing my wife and I in the sale of two homes and then an additional purchase. His attention to client needs far surpassed our prior experience. I have no reservation in recommending Mike for both buyer and seller representation.
Sarah Bullen, Lincoln Square -
Mike Kelly was the perfect person to help us find our first home. From our introductory meeting up until closing, we were impressed by his professionalism and market knowledge. Mike took the time to understand what we were looking for and what was important to us, and then worked hard to find it. We look forward to working with Mike in the future, and would highly recommend him to anyone buying their first home.
Brad and Lucy Hannah, Lakeview -
Being new to Chicago and a first time home buyer presented many challenges. My wife and I worried about how we would be able to find the right house in the midst of planning our wedding. Mike stepped in and guided us through every step of the search. Mike always accommodated our busy schedules and was able to find places that fit the exact criteria that we had requested. With Mike's assistance were able to buy the right place at the right price in the right amount of time. I highly recommend using Mike Kelly to both first time and experienced home buyers.
Madison Major, Lincoln Square -
Mike was without equal in the marketing and selling of our 4 unit building. He was very professional and attentive. Not only did he meet with us often, but he would also call after every showing to let us know how it went, and he even let us know when he would be out of town, and who would have the keys in case they were needed. Mike was also very knowledgeable concerning how the economy had affected the real estate market, steering us in the right direction as to the pricing of the property. His calm and professional demeanor made the whole experience and process go smoothly and pleasantly. We would highly recommend Mike to anyone interested in the selling or buying of real estate.
Bill and Helen, Lakeview -
Mike Kelly is such a great guy and awesome realtor. He has just the right demeanor and personality that was perfect for us to deal with. He is very helpful, efficient, not pushy, very accommodating of our needs and our time schedule. He was always available and willing to help us out before during and after the purchase and helped us through everything with his knowledge and advice when asked. He is so easy to work with - like we had known him forever even though we hooked up on the internet. We enjoyed spending time looking for our place with him and we have purchased the perfect one and love it !!!
Nancy and Wayne Videtich, River North -
My fiancee and I really enjoyed working with Mike. Finding the right condo can be a time-consuming and stressful experience, but throughout the entire process, we felt comfortable with Mike and confident in his ability to find a place that was just right for us. He went above and beyond to be available to talk and answer our questions. We would highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a new place.
Stephie and David, Bucktown -
Mike helped me find and purchase a home in March of 2010. He was extremely thorough with details, and gave me frequent updates throughout the entire process. It was great working with a realtor that had my best interest in mind. I was impressed by his friendly, laid back attitude. I was never put into any high pressure sales situations. I would definately recommend Mike as a realtor to anyone looking for a place in Chicago.
Jessica Althoff, Wrigleyville -
My husband and I were in the unfortunate position of trying to buy a home in Evanston, IL remotely. We had one afternoon to look at properties in person, and after that, we had to rely solely on Mike for information and advice. Mike far surpassed our expectations in this regard. We eventually placed a bid on a condominium unit. The seller of the unit made the negotiations process extremely difficult and time consuming, but Mike dealt with all of these troubles for us. In the end, we closed on a beautiful condo and paid well below the asking price. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone seeking to buy a home in and around Chicago. His in depth knowledge of the market and winning personality made it a true pleasure to work with him.
Tate and Webb Wilson, Evanston -
Mike knows the real estate industry very well and proved to me he's one of the best out there. From the moment we first starting working together, Mike laid out the expectations that potential buyers would be looking for and the results I should expect if I followed his advice. Mike gave me a clear and concise road map on how to succeed in selling my property, was constantly keeping me updated and in the loop and was always going above and beyond his duties as a real estate agent. Mike was a pleasure to work with and I will definitely be using him again.
Patrick Gerlach, Lincoln Park -
Mike helped me purchase my condo. As a first-time home buyer I had a ton of questions and inexperience. Mike took me through the entire process in an amazing manner all while helping me successfully negotiate a final sale I was comfortable with.
Adam Geisheker, Lakeview -
I hired Mike to help with a very important project to me, the purchase of my first condo unit. Mike was very patient with me and made sure I saw examples of all that was out there because I didn't originally know what I was looking for. After seeing around 60 units (he is dedicated), I ended up with a great place, which is the envy of a lot of my friends. He is great to hang around with during the process as well, he couldn't come with a higher recommendation from me.
