Diane was awesome to work with! She guided me through the entire process and was so knowledgeable of the market. She answered all my questions promptly and reassured and demonstrated to me that she was in control and was able to ensure that the needs of all parties were met in order to achieve a successful and on-time close. I would definitely recommend and work with and Diane again!
Diane is a pleasure to work with! She is friendly, eager to help and very knowledgeable! Diane was able to give me good information about the neighborhood and surrou ding areas.
Diane has helped multiple people in our family find their forever homes. When my wife and I were ready to find out we called Diane. We looked at a few that we thought we were going to love, but they were less than thrilling. Diane asked us what we liked about those houses and what we didnt. The next day we went out to look and found two houses that we could have put an off in on. We put in our offer and Diane suggested to write a personal letter to the owners and that maybe that could swing their decision making into our favor. Sure enough they picked our offer and it was the lower of the three they were considering. Diane will listen to your wants and needs and help you find the home of your dreams. I will only refer people to here.
Diane is an excellent realtor. She is very professional, knowledgeable and detailed. This was my first time selling a house and she guided me through each step of the process so I would not feel overwhelmed . She took the time to provide all necessary information so I was able to make informed decision along the way. She was always available for questions big or small. She truly made this experience stress free from start to finish.
Diane is such a professional agent. She is on top of the market and steers you to the exact houses right for you. We have bought and sold our last 2 homes with Diane and she lead us thru the process from start to finish without flaw. She is always there for her clients. We highly recommend her for you.
It was such a pleasure working with Diane to sell our home. She was professional and realistic about the entire process. She walked us through each step so it was not overwhelming. Her expertise helped us save time and energy with the showings as well. I would never use any other realtor! Thank you so much, Diane!
We cannot say enough good things about Diane for making the selling of our parents' house an easy and smooth experience! Her guidance, patience, and help were most welcome and appreciated. Diane was excellent! She is very knowledgeable and made this process very enjoyable We will always recommend Diane to all our family and friends.
Diane is a treasure! We followed her advice on home improvements/staging, and listing price of our home. We were hesitant on the asking price ( as everyone feels their home is worth more than market price). But, we trusted her judgment and followed her lead; we ended up closing well above asking price. Diane is very responsive, personable, and truly works for her client, not herself. I would turn to Diane again in a heartbeat! Diane, thank you for the wonderful service you provided!
Diane is fantastic! We plan to work with her indefinitely! She is friendly, professional & punctual. She listed and sold our home in under a week! She also found us a new home quickly. Diane is a real pro!
Diane is wonderful to work with. She explained every step of the selling and buying process so clearly. When I still had questions, she responded within minutes! She was also able to put me in contact with a great mortgage broker and lawyer. All I had to do was sign the papers!
We worked with Diane while buying our house, it was quick and easy. I truly recommend her, she was very professional and responsive throughout the entire process!

Diane helped us sell our home of 30+ years. Working with Diane was a dream come true. She guided us throughout the selling experience from start to finish. Diane is professional, communicative and answered all of our questions and concerns quickly and thoroughly. I highly recommend her! She is a class act!
I worked with Diane for both buying and selling, and both times, it was a great experience. As far as buying, when there was a house I wanted to see, she was always available on short notice to make sure I saw the house quickly (which was so important in todays market). She also provided great feedback on the houses we looked at as far as market price and value. When I found the house I wanted, she provided great feedback on what I needed to include in my offer, and I got the first house I made an offer on when there were multiple other offers.When I sold my house, Diane provided valuable comparable properties to show what my house was worth. She was always available if I had questions, and she kept me updated throughout the process. In the end, she helped me get the best price for my house.
Diane was wonderful. Great follow up on any questions or issues. Provided expert guidance and advise from beginning of the selling process to the end.Great knowledge of the overall market.
Diane has helped our family twice with her responsiveness, professionalism and knowledge of the local market. She provided insights regarding every step of the process. Thank you!!
Diane is one of the BEST. Selling my mom's home a few years ago. I was a mess. Diane stood next to me the whole time and made that home sale go smooth!!!! I have now used Diane to buy a home and sell my home.....she was excellent. Responds to my questions or needs in minutes. I have worked with other realtors, and have never experienced one working and caring as hard as she does!!!!! Because of her guidance and knowledge of real-estate I was able to secure the purchase of a new home with one accepted bid!!!! If you are looking for a realtor...... look no further....Diane Tanke is the best.
Buying and selling a home can be exciting, but it can also be stressful, but Diane made our selling experience very pleasant! She helped us manage our stress during the selling process, she was extremely knowledgeable about every little detail that should be done to sell the home. She helped us weed through multiple buyers. She was there for all the ups and downs selling our home, and she helped us get top dollar! I highly recommend Diane for anyone who is buying or selling.
Diane has been amazing through the whole process. She helped us find our perfect home in the high-demamd market. She was always available to answer any questions I had, regardless of the day and time. She was very patient and even showed us few homes twice when we requested. After we won the house, she followed up diligently regarding the upcoming steps and made the process very easy for us. She helped us until the very end. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family.
She is very knowledgeable about the city you are looking to move to. Helped a lot with that. Does her research about the area and homes you are looking to buy.
Diane Tanke is the best at her trade! She is knowledgeable in every aspect when she goes into a selling a home! She is prompt, courteous and considerate to her clients requests snd need! I would highly recommend her.
Diane sold my townhouse in 12/20. Prior to that Ive purchased 8 homes & sold 7 in 4 different states. Diane Tanke was, by far, the most responsive & prepared realtor Ive ever experienced. She was always prepared & professional. I wholeheartedly recommend DIANE TANKE.
Yes yes yes! Diane Tanky is the best real estate woman I have ever worked with. She is kind and caring and really knows how to answer all the questions that I had the worries that I was worrying she was amazing. I hope that anyone looking to buy or sell their house will call Diane and tell her that Gayle sent you. Thanks again Diane I dont have the words to tell you how you made my life easier in this move.

Diane was amazing to work with! She took her time with us through each home, highlighted pros/cons and was very knowledgeable about all the areas we were looking for. She is also very responsive and provided answers to all of our questions. Our entire home buying process was very smooth and was a great experience for us thanks to Diane! Highly recommend!
Diane was lovely to work with and very knowledgeable. Most importantly she was really accommodating and helpful during the time of my search and eventual purchase which coincided with the pandemic lockdown, so everything was more complex. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent.
Diane was available for me with my crazy schedule. She is very professional and always willing to go above and beyond. She even found a resource of boxes to assist me in my move. I would HIGHLY recommend Diane Tanke.
Diane was a dream to work with, she accurately suggested the pricing of the property, Kept me informed every step of the way, Made very valuablele suggestions, which we implemented, and in a few short weeks the property sold. Even then, she kept me appraised of what was going on and what I could expect next. The closing was flawless and the property closed. Very professional, patient and Diane knows her business. I thank her a million times. You just can't miss with Diane.
Diane is an expert when it comes to selling houses. We didn't have any luck with our first realtor...only 7 people came through to see the house in three months. Then the amazing Diane took over. We received Diane's name through a family member and called her. She was honest and truthful regarding pricing and what homes were going for in our area. She explained every step of the process, so we had a clear understanding of it. Within one week we had about 13 or 14 people come through to look at our home. We couldn't believe it. Not long after that, we had a buyer and were ecstatic. Diane is amazing and very professional. She answered our phone calls, emails, and texts within a matter of minutes and never left us hanging when we had questions or concerns. We would highly recommend Diane Tanke as your realtor. She will work hard for you and will get your house sold. She is knowledgeable, trustworthy, impressive, as well as a compassionate person. She is the person you want to have sell your home!
Diane has been great through the whole process. I was introduced to her randomly through an inquirey about a property I wanted to see. We met and she helped me through the process of helping me find my new home. She was very accomodating, I was able to see all the propertyies i was interested in and on my time schedule. She found properties that we in my interest level as well as open to my findings. Diane was not pushy, in fact she was honest and helped me make the right decision for me. I appreciate how supportive she was and willing to keep searching. I am happy to have met her and feel like I made a friend. Thank you Diane!!! I LOVE my new home!
Buying a first home can be very stressful, especially when you werent really planning for it. Diane walked us through each and every step, offering great advice along the way. She was careful not to overwhelm us with information and took note of what we liked to ensure she knew our style, wants, and needs. In the end she helped us find and amazing home which made it feel like it was meant to be all along. She took all the stress out of buying and her team was great as well!! I would most definitely use Diane again in the future and recommend her to anyone in the market, buying or selling!
So helpful, and so sweet! Such a pleasure to work with. Made the process so much easier for me and helped me to understand everything. Always available when I had questions. Found me a great home and really listened to what I was looking for.
I can't say enough wonderful things about our time with Diane! Diane was recommended to us by a former work colleague and she provided excellent service from the beginning of the process and continues to, well after closing. We highly recommend Diane without any reservations.Our experience began with Diane meeting with us and talking through the home buying process as well as the current realities of the local markets we were interested in. Based on our input (budget, ideal home, ideal location), Diane provided ideas on neighborhoods that might fit our wants/needs and what type of home we might expect to find within our budget. I have to say that we were very indecisive home shoppers, so we definitely tested Dianes knowledge about local communities and types of homes, and were never disappointed with her responses.Most important to us, Diane was always honest with us about what she thought about each property, was always available and helpful, and we always felt that she truly had our best interests at heart. In the future, if we ever decide to move, we will definitely use Diane again to both sell our home and find a new one.
Very responsive and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. Patient and thoughtful with all of our questions. Helped us negotiate to get what we needed for the sale while being realistic about the market. We bought this house 5 years ago with Diane's help, and wouldn't have thought of working with anyone else.
Diane is an excellent Realtor and was always there to help us with any questions or concerns we had. We were out of the country for much of the time that our home was on the market and Diane was always there to insure that the house was in top showing condition and kept us completely informed of everything that was happening. She is a true professional and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to skillfully guide you through what is often a very stressful time in your life.
We were very pleased with Diane We would recommend to our friends When we had any issues with house she was always there to help and suggestions. I never seen any one passionate with what she do
We were so lucky to have Diane as our realtor! She was very prompt to respond whenever I had a question or just wanted advise. Her calm demeanor helped tame my jitters during the process and I always felt that my concerns were heard and addressed. She truly is a rockstar realtor and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Diane was great to work with. Being a first time home buyer it was great to have someone who was informative, honest, and who understands the housing market.
Diane is simply amazing!!!! The moment I spoke with her I knew she was the right realtor for us. She is very knowledgeable, available and compassionate. When looking fot our new home we had so many questions and concerns that were addressed quickly and gracefully. Diane made buying a home so easy and fun. She made all the calls to the loan officer and lawyer so we had that much less to worry about. Thank you Diane for making this such a great experience for,our family. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new home. I truly believe there is no one better!!!!
She is simply awesome. We interviewed multiple agents, many with high volume sales before choosing her and we are very happy we went with her! Ive been through 7 real estate transactions and she made the whole process so much easier than the others.
Diane is very knowledgeable in her field of work. She met all our expectations of selling our home. She was also very responsive to all our concerns through out the whole process. We moved out of our home one week before closing. Not able to check our home since we were thousand miles away, Diane checked the home for us to ease our minds. Our greatest appreciation to her hard work in making our retirement dream come true with relocating to Nevada.
Diane is excellent! She is knowledgeable about the area and that was very important to us since we were moving to the Chicago suburbs from Central IL. She is also very responsive, which was important for us since we were not physically in the area, and we were able to move quickly once we were ready to put in an offer on a home. After meeting with us to discuss our criteria, the homes she identified were spot on with our expectations. The home we bought was actually one we saw during our first outing with her. She has great understanding of the industry and the processes, and we were confident every step of the way that things were being handled properly and in a timely manner. She also provides great recommendations for services in the area, which is very helpful for us since we are unfamiliar with the area. I would certainly recommend Diane to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Crystal Lake area.
Diane listened to what I was looking for. This is my number one criteria when dealing with any professional. Harder to find than one might think!Diane addressed ALL of my questions and concerns immediately.She also has a vast knowledge in areas peripherally related to home ownership that is especially helpful when you are moving into a new region.
She was so helpful and gave us lots of information. As new home buyers there is a lot to take in. Diane made it not seem as stressful. She was very prepared, calm and kind throughout the whole process. She was also very honest, which was incredibly helpful since we werent exactly sure what was the most important aspects to look for in a home. I would suggest Diane to anyone looking for a new home.
Diane helped me find my first home and it was a great experience. She really helped explain things for me and was very patient. I can be picky sometimes but she found a house that met everything I was looking for within my budget. I would be happy to work with Diane again in the future.
Diane is highly experienced, motivated, knowledgeable and customer oriented. Really has the pulse of the market which she attains through extensive networking and follow up. Diane's weekly reports on activity included numbers on times house viewed, interested buyers ,etc. Diane calls every broker after a home visit. No stone is left unturned. Diane price's the home fairly and does not pressure you for price adjustments. Once a contract was in play Diane was skilled and persistent through signing. Once signed she stays with you all the way to closing with excellent advice and follow up. If I have need for a another real estate professional I will pick Diane every time.
Diane was absolutely wonderful!! We are first time home buyers and she was very patient with us and made the process very easy. She took us to look at many houses that we had told her we wanted to see, but she was also very good at picking up on things we liked/disliked, and suggesting houses based off those preferences. Besides being a fantastic realtor, Diane is just the nicest human being you'll never meet. She always treated us with such kindness and familiarity, it was as if we had known each other for years rather than weeks. We could not have asked for a better realtor than Diane, and we will be recommending her to everyone that is looking to buy a house!
Diane is professional, thorough and very knowledgeable. She prepared us for everything in advance so there were no surprises during the sale of our home. Would definitely recommend her to all my family and friends!
Diane made homebuying so easy and stress free! Definitely will recommend her to all my friends and people at my workplace. She always kept me in the loop on everything that was going on with my townhouse and always made me feel comfortable after talking with her highly recommend!
Diane was great! My husband and I just bought our first home and Diane was there with us for every step of the process. She was knowledgeable, prompt, and patient with all of our first-time homebuyer questions. I would recommend Diane to anyone looking for an experienced realtor in the suburbs! Thanks for everything Diane!
