ZillowVERIFIEDCory Green at Compass Realty helped us buy our dream home. Moving to Illinois from out of state seemed a difficult task, but Cory helped make a hard process feel easy. We always felt supported and informed. Cory has a great knowledge base of the real estate in the area and can direct you to the kind of house youre in the market for. He was always upfront with us regarding any positive and negative features of the properties that he showed us. We found our dream home and Cory was creative and persuasive in getting our offer accepted in this highly competitive market. He made the entire process seamless, strategic and stress free. If youre looking to buy or sell, we cannot recommend Cory highly enough!

ZillowVERIFIEDCory is a true professional and is the best person on the Northshore to o help you sell your home. He assigned Sara Kerndt to us to take us through the process of selling our home and buying a new one. Sara is the best in the business, a true professional and entirely committed to service and keeping her customers informed and happy. Then Liz at the office is so responsive and supportive with communicating the details, paperwork, and customer responsibilities to get everything done on time.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe couldn't recommend Cory enough. He was truly the reason we ended up getting our house. We lost out on a home early in the process, but Cory kept us focused, optimistic, and working toward finding the right place. His experience and expertise were invaluable every step of the way. Cory is not only responsive and helpful, but he's just a genuinely good guy to work with. He always made time for questions, gave honest advice, and never made us feel pressured. One of the things that really sets Cory apart is his background in structural engineering. When he walks through a house with you, he knows what he's looking at and explains things in a way that's easy to understand. He can spot potential issues, assess what's worth worrying about and what's not, and bring a level of expertise that's hard to find in a realtor. He also has a great eye for design and helped us see the potential in homes we might have overlooked. Cory made our home buying process as smooth as it possibly could be. We're incredibly grateful for all of his help and would recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDCory was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He guided us through every step of the process, answered all of our questions, and made us feel confident in every decision. We would definitely use him again and highly recommend him to others.

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDCory was absolutely fantastic in helping us navigate our first home purchaseaEUR"especially in what is still a very challenging buyers market. From start to finish, he made the entire process feel seamless, even when the negotiation and overall deal were far more complex than we realized. Cory handled everything with such calm confidence and expertise that we never felt overwhelmed, which is not something we expected going into our first home purchase. What also stood out was Corys network. Every person he connected us withaEUR"whether for financing, inspections, or other supportaEUR"spoke incredibly highly of him and delivered exceptional service. It made a huge difference to have such a strong, trusted team guiding us through each step. We would strongly recommend working with Cory.

ZillowVERIFIEDCory and his team made my home buying purchase extremely simplified, and kept things on-track in an extraordinarily timely manner. Anytime I had a question, request for a showing, etc.. Cory would be right there with an answer near instantly. Thanks to Cory and crew, we were able to close on a house in a very short amount of time - during the holidays, no less!

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDCory Greens market knowledge, professionalism and experience was the differentiator in us not only finding our dream home, but also winning it in a multiple-offer situation. Cory was there with us along the process, from early learning about the areas to consider to finding the right home for our family. Due to our relocation and home sale process back home, it took us longer than anticipated to make the move. Cory stayed focused on helping us find the right home in the Chicagoland area while we listed and sold our old house back in Virginia. I cant recommend him enough to those local to the market or moving from out of state like us.

ZillowVERIFIEDCory is the absolute best! I was lucky enough to connect with Cory off of Zillow, and couldn't be happier with the result. I would recommend Cory to anyone and everyone. He is very thorough, putting you first and is there for you every step of the way. I am a first time home buyer, and he made it easy. On the few places we saw, he knew when I said I love it and that it was it; he got right to work and had my offer in first and made it happen. I consider myself very lucky to have been able to work with Cory and his teams (home inspection, legal and mortgage). My daughter and I love our new home, and can't thank Cory enough for how great it was to work with him.

ZillowVERIFIEDFrom the moment we started working with Cory, I knew this would be different than the experiences we had had with any other realtor. His attention to detail and willingness to look out for our best interest was evident in every conversation we had. I would highly recommend Cory to my friends and family. If I ever have to move again, Corey would be the first person I would call!

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDCory represented us as buyers, as we considered a semi-local relocation. We were navigating making a very unexpected and significant life change and Cory was impeccable in providing us answers to every (many) question. He clearly knew the market, was transparent and calm as he worked with us through the buying process. His responsiveness was remarkable, exceeding expectations and working with him allowed us to accomplish a purchase quickly. He also has an extensive network of service providers which he connects his reputation to, from inspector(s) to contractors and has remained a resource even a year after closing.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe are very happy to have found Cory to buy our home last year. It was immediately clear from the beginning of our search up through the closing that he held a deep knowledge of the surrounding suburban neighborhoods and I sharp eye for good home design and construction. Cory very quickly homed in on what my wife and I were looking for and, in the end, brought us to a house that we love at a price we were happy with. I was impressed with his responsiveness - really any time of day, week or weekend, he was available to respond to questions and offer advice (even still now over a year after purchasing our home). Whatever we wanted to see he took us to quickly, while at the same time patiently working with us throughout the process. He came highly recommended to me from several of my colleagues that recently bought, and I likewise cannot recommend him highly enough.

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDOverall I had an intermediate experience working with Cory. His strengths are a good working knowledge of the area and construction/maintenance know how. He really helped me understand the ins and outs of buying a home. That said, I had some issues involving emotional intelligence and ego. There were times where I felt rushed to make huge decisions. At other times it felt like I was supposed to 'trust him' compared to knowing my rights as a home buyer. Home buying is an extremely stressful process and Cory helped in many ways but could improve by creating a supporting and transparent environment for the buyer.

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDWe were new to the Illinois home buying experience and requested a tour of a home through Zillow. We were matched with Cory and were so fortunate. Cory met us at our first viewing and quickly became a trusted source. He learned of our interests quickly and was always very responsive to our needs. He's a great communicator, which was key for us. He was patient with us but willing to provide the appropriate guidance and suggestions. He helped us through the purchase process, providing advice but letting us drive the decisions, and referred us to exceptional professionals (attorney, inspector, etc) along the way. His office staff was very coordinated and helpful. We give Cory and his team our highest recommendation!

ZillowVERIFIEDCory was great to work with! The house we were purchasing was of a fairly complex design and we had a number of issues we needed help evaluating. Cory's expertise and knowledge and connections went beyond most agents we've worked with before. We were definitely lucky to have him! We plan to work with him on a sale in the near future and he is already helping immensely with his organization, attention to detail and knowledge of market conditions in the area.

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDCory was a wonderful partner in the search for our first home. He worked with us for over a year - he was patient and flexible while we figured out what we truly wanted (or needed at this stage in our lives, and didn't even know we needed). Cory was responsive, quick-acting, and motivated - when we finally found "the" house - we were under contract in just a few hours due to Cory's efforts. He shared his wealth of knowledge on the North Shore market, and on historic homes, putting us in touch with all the right specialists, giving the appropriate recommendations, and holding our hands through the entire process.

ZillowVERIFIEDCory was helpful in our search and extremely knowledgeable about what questions to ask and how to value certain aspects of homes. He was responsive- answering my texts and calls any day of the week and any hour of the evening. He was patient with us as our search lasted six months. He negotiated for us and gave his opinions but didnt push us either, which we appreciated. He is great realtor to work with in the Chicago area.

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDIf you're looking for a home in the northern suburbs of Chicago, Cory is your man. My fiance and I had never owned a home and were totally new to the whole process. Cory was patient with us and gave us insight into each home we saw that went above and beyond what was listed (the build quality, the appliances, the different maintenance concerns). He clearly knows his stuff. He is also well connected with lenders, inspectors, real estate attorneys, and other realtors and able to provide resources for each. He was also very reliable and would respond to our messages very quickly. We found an amazing home and I'm 100% confident it is because of Cory.

ZillowVERIFIEDBuying a home while living in another state is always challenging, and doing so over the holidays is even more daunting. We could only have achieved it with Cory's knowledge of the North Shore area and dedication to our family. Cory's professionalism and experience were invaluable to us as we relied on him during this critical move across the country. We highly recommend Cory Green's team to anyone in the market.

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDCory was our agent for buying our new home and selling our prior home. He did an excellent job with both transactions, whether it was in determining what amount to offer or list at, other contract provisions, or helping us navigate inspection and attorney review. He is very easy to work with but can also advocate aggressively on your behalf. We were under contract within 2 days of listing our prior house which was fantastic.

Cory was very responsive at any given time and took the time to explain certain questions. As first time home buyers we appreciated the team's guidance, reminders, and support. Would absolutely recommend anyone trying to find someone to rely on in the area!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe recently bought our forever, dream home with Cory. It was a whirlwind, with less than 24 hours between the showing request, showing and accepted offer. Cory helped us put in an attractive offer within our comfortable budget constraints, and was incredibly helpful throughout the contracting and closing process. We are very grateful for his help, and thrilled that we were able to land in the place we'll call home for the rest of our lives.

ZillowVERIFIEDI would highly encourage anyone to ask Cory to be their realtor. As first-time home buyers, he was not just patient and responsive to our many questions, but he provided guidance and instilled confidence in the process. The home we purchased had a complex ownership system, and Cory was able to navigate the many unforeseen issues that arose along the way. He stayed with us from start to close. He also had very good recommendations for other professional services. Five stars!

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDThis was our first time buying a home. Needless to say we found ourselves in good hands. We used the VA loan and it was great to have Cory not only knowledgeable in that process but supporting us in our small window of opportunity. We looked at several houses and he was always truthful and honest. His inspectors did an amazing job as well. We found something that fit our budget and met almost all our needs. We did not need to renew our apartment lease and closed in the nick of time. Ill be the first to admit I was always concerned as many have heard horror stories about realtors. In hindsight I dont think we could have found a better person than Cory and his team. My family and I couldnt be happier and will be recommending him to others and using him when we look to buy another property.

ZillowVERIFIEDCory was great to work with. Very thorough process knowledge and great communication and follow up throughout. He and his team coordinated visits, walkthroughs and closing very efficiently and he also consulted on a number of questions we had as first time buyers in the US. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the market and easy to deal with. Would recommend.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had an excellent experience, searching for a new home in IL with Cory Green, Compass Realty. We were doing the search long distance, from another state. Cory provided us with an app, that catered to our needs in search, offered to go in person to the homes, we couldn't, and set up excellent appointments for the final picks. As a result we were able to find our home on the first weekend, that we traveled to IL, which was a tremendous time and money saving in itself! Cory also works with and introduced us to the efficient team of other industry professionals, that helped to make our overall home purchasing fast and relatively easy as well. Highly recommend!

ZillowVERIFIEDCory and his team were awesome! I relocated to Chicago from the West Coast and as much as I love the city, also wanted to explore nearby areas. Cory was the best at accommodating our busy schedules to find us the perfect home in a neighborhood that that we love! His interest in getting to know our wants/needs, knowledge of northern suburbs, patience showing us a wide range of houses in several areas and negotiation advice allowed us to find one that that checked almost all the boxes... no one really needs a pool in Chicago anyway!

Thank you Cory and Nikki!

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDCory made all the difference here. We would not be in this home now without his work at every step along the way. We had previously purchased and sold a dozen properties over the years and had slipped into the view that having an agent on the buy side might not be that valuable to buyers. But we decided to work with Cory in looking for our home. He steered us to this gem the moment it was listed, got us that day in to see it, and helped us craft an offer that was competitive over other offers. He then advised us through inspections, legal, and financing. This deal could easily have fallen apart at any of these phases - and nearly did a few times - but Cory managed to keep the process going and got us to closing. It is not an exaggeration to say we would not be living in our home today without Cory's experience and network and responsiveness working for us during this process.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I recently bought a home in Lake Bluff with Cory. Cory helped us navigate our move from the city, and guided us through an effective negotiation for the purchase of our home. The thing that set Cory apart for me was that he was by far the most aEURoefull serviceaEUR? realtor we have ever worked with, and actively supported our transaction every single step of the way: from researching issues that came up in inspection to offering to meet contractors after closing because we hadnt moved in yet. I would emphatically recommend him to anyone purchasing on the north shore.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had been working with another agent/company while trying to find a house in a very competitive market and we were unable to get anywhere. My husband found Cory and we were able to get the house of our dreams in a great location and at a competitive price. Cory knows the Chicago North Shore market very well and has important relationships with other agents which enabled us to negotiate on a house we thought was out of our reach. Thanks to Cory's persistence we not only sold our house at a good price but he leveraged his contacts to ensure we didn't compromise on our purchase. Thank you Cory!

Review for Member: Cory Green
ZillowVERIFIEDIf you want a realtor who is totally client-oriented and very open and honest and knowledgeable about the workings of a home, then Cory is the best choice for your consideration. From our very first meeting a year ago, we were impressed with Corys work ethic, easy demeanor and past history of development and construction and sales. Based on our personal preferences, we decided to hold off looking for homes until this past September and Cory pinpointed homes that we were interested in and ultimately ended buying one fairly quickly. We are now working with Cory to sell our home and we have full confidence in his ability to help us achieve a fair price.
