Chicago Realty

Are you unhappy with the results, or lack thereof, that your Realtor is giving you? I have recently found out that all Realtors are not the same. There are many Chicago realty services that do not provide their customers with quality service. I was very disappointed with the lack of professionalism in my Realtor; but unfortunately I had signed a contract with them. After six months of empty promises and not having one qualified buyer that was interested in purchasing my house, I was able to get out of the contract and find a new Chicago realty service.

Luckily, the tides changed quite quickly. The new Realtor came out and took some fantastic pictures of both the inside and the outside of my house and posted them on a MLS listing. They also provided me with a list of things that I should do to prepare my house for a successful showing. I took their advice and got rid of some of the clutter around my house and I painted the walls a neutral color as my realtor suggested.

During the first month, I had one to two showings per week, which was much better than the one showing per month that I was averaging before. My Realtor would always show up before the prospective buyer and make sure that my house was ready to be shown. While he was giving the prospective buyers a tour of the house he would not only talk about all of the great features that my house had to offer but he would talk about all of the wonderful things that my neighborhood had to offer. I was really impressed that he had taken the time to not only find out about the schools and shopping centers, but when a family that had two young children with them came, he told them all about programs that the local park district offered for children.

After the first month I still did not get any solid offers so my Chicago realty agent suggested having an open house. I thought it was a great idea. He put up signs and advertised in local papers and when the day came there was a huge turnout. I had two offers the very next day and I was able to get my asking price. I was thoroughly impressed by the job that he did. So, if you have a realtor that is providing you with the good service, find another one that will.
