Professional, punctual, thorough and helpful. Ed and his team made the overall experience a positive experience. Highly recommend. Ed really takes his time to understand your needs during home buying. Every step of the way Ed was great and truly exceeded my expectations.
He was nice and helpful and caring. Kept me up to date with everything that was going on with the sell of my property. Used him to buy my house back in 2023 and was helpful with that as well
As first time buyers, we had no clue what was involved in the process. Ed was incredibly patient, breaking down every step and keeping us well informed. He anticipated our needs, made us feel like family, and found the home of our dreams!
Edward worked through our situation with us, helping us to purchase a house in a very short period of time. Though this process took many months for us to be ready, he assist us throughout the entire affair. Edward remained professional and attentive through all issues regarding the purchase of our first house.
We had a fantastic experience working with the Pluchar Group at Keller Williams! Ed was a tremendous RealtoraEUR"professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. His team was a pleasure to work with, especially Jen, who went above and beyond to keep everything on track. As first-time home sellers, we were a bit nervous, but Ed and his team provided exceptional guidance and support every step of the way. They were always responsive, communicative, and patient with our questions, which made the process so much smoother and less stressful. We truly appreciated their dedication and would highly recommend the Pluchar Group to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Five stars all the way!
After one failed try and five more house to view, we finally got our first home. Edward and Jen were amazing to work with through out both processes. Edward was able to work on our time, wants, needs, and hopes for what we wanted in our future home. Coming into the progress, I had no knowledge about what I need to look for in a house. Let alone the cost and the parts of a house. He was very knowledgeable about every house (in any town) that he showed us. He is open to finding a day and time that best fits his clients. Jen is a great member of Edwards team as well. She worked with us to make sure paper work was competed and turned in on time. She was a wonderful connection between us and the seller. Through their network, Edward and Jen have an outstanding community of Realty support (house inspectors, mortgage lenders, and more) working with them. In the end, we found our home and could not have been happier. We would highly recommend Edward and The Pluchar Group for your house buying needs. Thank you again Edward and Jen!
Ed was really helpful while I was looking for a home. He was very patient with me, because I was very hesitant about a lot of things, but he reassured me it was just all part of the process of purchasing a home. I would definitely recommend Ed, as your real estate agent.
Ed Pluchar,Words can't express how me & my wife feel.After searching for realtor that best suited our needs we was fortunate enough to get hook up with.He set up a team for us to work with a BAM!!!!! we are now in the home of our dreams so if anyone reads this get with Ed Pluchar he will not let you down
I move every couple of years for work and Ed and his team are the best that we have experienced. They are very professional, prompt, courteous, and go out of their way to ensure that everything gets taken care of. Examples: (1) Ed blocked out his calendar to provide two days of showings when I flew into town to search for a house, (2) when our offer was accepted I received an email from Ed at 2am, (3) Ed and the team helped complete our transaction in about 3 weeks, while i completed closing on the west coast. I would highly recommend the Pluchar group.
I cant say enough about the professionalism and expertise that Ed Pluchar showed when he sold my Moms townhouse. I was a realtor for over 30 years and there was nothing during the entire transaction with Ed that I would have wanted handled differently. This was not initially an easy move for Mom. Constant communication and simple explanation of everything involved eliminated the stress of the sale for her. Ed made sure everything was kept on schedule, he was always on top of things. I surely would recommend him to anyone thinking of selling or buying!
Great knowledge of the local area and followed all my directions precisely. Wasted no time and did not stray away from what I needed while most relators that I use do when they find a deal that will make them more money.
Edward is the absolute best! My boyfriend and I were first time home buyers in the wildest market conditions anyone has ever seen, and he guided us through the whole process better than I could have ever asked for. He is professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and will work hard for you! He responded to us at all hours of the day, during our home buying process and made sure we knew exactly what we were doing. The team that Ed is a part of was also a huge help! I would go through the home buying process with him again a thousand times over! If you are in need of a great agent, hes def the one youre looking for !
I definitely recommend Ed Pluchar!He is kind, understanding, and respectful. Ed is helpful and very responsive. Always available to phone calls, emails, and texts. Really made things easy. Ed took time to explain all needed information. Ed is humble and does not set pressure. Absolutely very profesional. I previously met Ed when I bought a home in 2020. Had a great experience then that I reached back out to Ed to sell home 2022. I also recommended Ed to my daughter this 2022. Who is looking for her first home.
Ed is positive, knowledgeable, responsive and was most helpful during the whole process of buying my first home in this challenging time. Ed responded within minutes to my texts and phone calls. He sent me listings on condos and arranged viewings as soon as possible. He explained each step of the process and kept me informed. Ed's transaction coordinator, Nadia, was also instrumental in making the purchase as easy as possible. They are a great team.
My wife and I recently sold our home with Ed Pluchar and The Pluchar Group. Ed was incredibly responsive to all of our questions. Ed gave us a thorough market analysis to help set the price of our home. I thought it might be a little high and over market, but if Ed thought thats the price we could get, who am I to complain? The listing looked tremendous, and Ed used his social media presence to attract interest in our home. After a couple of weeks, we had plenty of interest but no offers. We asked Ed for his advice. Should we stay the course? Should we drop the price? Ed gave us all of the options, the pros, and the cons, as well as a recommendation. He suggested being patient, but you can tell he was empowering us to make the decision instead of just pushing us to accept his advice. He would have genuinely done whatever we asked him to do. We decided to stick with his recommendation, and boy are we glad we did - we got full asking price for our home! We cannot recommend Ed enough for his service and professionalism. Ed showed the great value of hiring an agent and would use him again in a heartbeat.
Ed and his team, from start to finish, are professional, thorough and helpful. Purchasing or selling a home can be stressful enough but we strongly encourage you to put yourselves in the hands of the Pluchar Group. No one will take better care of you!
THANK TO MELISSA P. AND NADIA FOR ALL THE HELP YOU PROVIDED TO MY SON AND MYSELF IN FINDING A NEW PLACE TO LIVE FOR A DECENT PRICE. WE WERE TIRED OF PAYING RENT FOR LITTLE GAIN. THE RENT WE PAID WAS $ 1280.00 PER MONTH WITH NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT. SO, IF AND WHEN MY SON WANTS HIS OWN PLACE WE WILL CALL THE PLUCHAR GROUP FOR HOM.
Honest review here...Ive known Ed Pluchar for more than 20 years. Of all my realtor friends, I really wanted to support him because hes truly a wonderful individual. It was absolutely wonderful working with him on our home purchase. It was my first time buying, so I really had no idea what I was getting into. I fully expected my dealings with Ed to be more laid back and casual, but they werent. Even though we are friends, it really was all business and professional throughout the process. Ed was always at every showing before I was. His response time for calls and texts made me feel as if I was his only client. He really makes you feel like he is working solely for you. After agreeing to a purchase, I was introduced to the rest of his team at The Pluchar Group. The team was so helpful with answering questions, helping to set up my utilities, arranging a moving service, and helping to keep me calm and collected during the entire process. I most realtors sort of forget about you once the purchase is agreed upon; they put everything in the lenders hands. Not Ed!Ed and his team were holding my hand through every step of the process. Eds calm demeanor and approach were exactly what I needed. I am so thankful to Ed and his team for helping me to become a home owner!
I have to say that I had the BEST experience with Ed and The Pluchar Groups team. My husband and I started looking for a home in early 2019. We didnt really know where we wanted to move or what we really wanted but Ed was so patient. Ed showed us houses in almost every suburb in Illinois lol. He never made us feel like we were wasting his time. We even took a break for a year so that my husband and I can really focus and decide what we really wanted. We called Ed back earlier this year and he helped us find our dream home. We closed early Spring this year and the closing was simple even in the midst of the pandemic. Thanks to Ed and his team for being so patient, professional and available throughout the entire process.
Very knowledgeable and professional. I am glad we chose Ed. He helped us from the beginning all the way to closing. He was there with us every step of the way.
It was an absolute pleasure working with such a patient, responsive and understanding person. Mr. Pluchar seemed kind, considerate, and professional from day one. Immediately after meeting him, my husband and I were sure that he was the right person to help us find a house. He was able to show us houses without being pushy or condescending. Mr. Pluchar was always on time for the showings and made sure our questions were answered before we left each property. He was always easy to reach and responded back to our emails within a reasonable amount of time, if not immediately. He always spoke in a respectful and pleasant manner. This confirmed for us that he was our guy. We have referred Mr. Pluchar to our daughter who plan to look for property in the same area. We believe that she will receive the same high quality services that my husband and I did.
Hands down you wont find a better realtor then Ed! He is the first name that comes to mind when friends and family ask my family who we used to buy/sell out homes. I can answer that question without hesitation. He is honest, compassionate, caring and will work endlessly until you are happy! We recently sold our first home and bought a new home at the same time and he kept our lives stress free during a quick closing on both homes! 100% guarantee you will not regret it when you choose Ed Pluchar as your realtor!
Ed was very knowledgeable about the many houses we've viewed and the surrounding area. He was very punctual in responding to any calls and texts to answer any questions we may have. And he was patient and understanding to make sure he help us find the perfect house that fit all our wants and needs within our budget.
When I began looking for a home my goal was to find something fast, I had a small window of time to find something, and of course it needed to fit my criteria. Ed made finding a home quick and convenient. Ed also even made the closing process convenient with his connections and knowledge on the matter.Under the nuanced circumstance I was in, I could have easily failed to find a home and close within my small window of time to get it done, but Ed made it possible with his skills, experience, and availability.
First of all, this is not our first home so we had experience with other realtors before and no one compared to Ed. He has been just amazing with us in every step of the way, very professional at the same time down to earth. He was patient with us and explained things when things were not clear. He has knowledge of the market and understanding of our needs. We were very happy to have worked with him.We wouldnt hesitate to contact him again for our next purchase. Highly recommend Ed for your real estate needs.
Very proffesional and experienced in real estate market. Edward spent more than a year trying to find us new home. His negotiation skills are outstanding! Highly recommend to others!

Ed Pluchar was the best realtor weve worked with, he had patience with us, and understood what we were looking for. He always had a good vibe and always answered all of our questions truthfully and with great knowledge. We wouldnt hesitate to contact him again for our next purchase. -Jonathan and Karen
Edward helped us find our first apartment while we were saving for a house! In less then a year he worked with us on finding our home! Throughout the process he helped us explore different options and find what would fit us best. He is very knowledgeable and patient; and we couldnt be happier with our purchase!
Working with Ed Pluchar was the best decision I made in my home selling and buying experience second only to choosing my new home. His patience, integrity, and determination are endless. There were a few hiccups and surprises along the way, yet he handled it all flawlessly. I sold my house, bought my top choice new home, and walked away with almost double in my pocket from what I told him I wanted. Call Ed - you wont regret it! My only regret is that I dont get to work with him anymore!
Our review of Ed Pluchar We recently were in the market looking for a house as well as trying to sell ours when we met Ed. From the onset, we felt very comfortable with Ed- his demeanor, his character, and his experience. We had very specific tastes in the kind of house we were seeking, and we had a particular town and neighborhood where we wished to settle. Our aEURoeshopping listaEUR? of what we wanted and what we didnt, or couldnt have, would have frustrated any realtor. But Ed was great- he stuck by us, gave us great advice, and was extraordinarily patient and dedicated to our needs. A characteristic that I noticed early on in Ed was his commitment to being involved; Ed doesnt sit at a desk and wait for good things to happen- he goes out and makes things happen.I was very impressed. My family was very pleased and we are happy where we now live. Ed has become a friend to our family and we remain in touch with him.This is the person you want in your corner. Phil and Lori Okrongley
If you are looking for a Realtor who cares to find you your dream home, stop looking and call Edward Pluchar of Realtor People. He comes highly recommended because, in every step of the way, Edward communicated with us. He has our loyalty in future real estate transactions and I would absolutely recommend him to friends and family. Edward Pluchar is a great Realtor to work with!My husband and I decided to live out of state and Kary Razik of Realty People referred us to Edward Pluchar because it was outside Karys working area. In our initial phone conference with Edward, he gathered the information about what was most important for both my husband and I to have in our new home, its neighborhood, and its nearby amenities. After Edward scheduled our first showing, I knew we wanted to keep working with him because he listened. Edward showed us homes that were gorgeous that, on day one of our search for homes, we made an offer. Sadly, we lost it to a bidding war; so, we continued to look for homes. On day two of our search for home, we found our dream home; however, I thought the seller would not come to my price point. Edward did what he does best aEUR"putting his phenomenal Realtor skills to work. When Edward informed us that the seller accepted our offer, we jumped off our seats with joy. The rest is history and, today, we are living in our dream home, Thanks to working with Edward Pluchar.
We worked with Ed Pluchar recently to find our new home. I would recommend him to anyone! Ed took the time to listen, and adjusted our house search accordingly as we visited properties and gave him feedback. He was quick to line up properties for us to see. We had great options to consider even though we were in a sellers market and properties were moving fast. When we were ready to make an offer, Eds experience showed during negotiations - we ended up with a very fair price on the house. Were going to be in our new home for a very long time, but if we ever need to buy or sell again, well be calling Ed.
Ed Pluchar was a really good realtor. He adjusted to our needs and helped us find a wonderful home that fits in our budget. Hes very friendly and if you needed anything Ed would be gladly help you out.
He was very easy to work with. He is exactly who you would want to help you make a huge decision like buying a home. He was very professional and knew his stuff.

It was a tremendous pleasure working with Ed Pluchar on both the sale of our old home and the purchase of our new home! Ed has both the knowledge and expertise to advise his clients throughout the process, and he worked tirelessly to not just get the deal done, but to get the BEST DEAL FOR US. Ed was particularly refreshing with regards to working with real estate brokers!
Ed was great to work with from start to finish in our home buying process. We were not the easiest buyers because we were all over the place on the locations we started looking at, the type and size of house, etc. He was more than happy to work through us figuring all of that out and in the end helped us find a great house that's perfect for our family. Will definitely be recommending Ed to anyone I know who will be buying or selling!
This guy knows his stuff! very knowledgeable man. He always went out of his way for me. If it was rescheduled showings answering my calls late at night definitely #1 realtor on zillow.
I was matched up with Ed through a Zillow inquiry. If I had to do it over again, I'd pick still pick Ed! Ed has been helpful, knowledgeable, flexible, and has made my buying process no stress. I would even recommend his recommdations for inspector and attorney. All have been wonderful! I recommend Ed Pluchar for your home purchasing and selling needs.
Ed Pluchar helped us list our house at a marketable price and it sold quickly. He was readily available when we had any questions and was extremely helpful throughout the selling process. I would recommend Ed to anyone who is looking to buy or sell. He is very knowledgeable, kind, honest, and hard working. We are 100% pleased with the service we received!
My husband and I have worked with Ed Pluchar to find the ideal house for us. Ed listens, is honest, and open to the needs of his clients. Each house we saw made us feel closer to our dream home.
This was my first, independent moving experience which can be anxiously overwhelming. When I notified Ed Pluchar of my budget range and need for location due to my business, he responded immediately and was very persistent in locating apartments for rent in the area I required that were within my expenses. Most importantly, he was very helpful in providing a checklist on what to look for when viewing these units to ensure that I was getting a safe and home-ready place to rent, including paying attention to other expenses and factors on the lease provided. My experience was much more organized and at ease with Ed's expertise.
Trying to find our new home was an exciting but stressful experience. Having an amazing realtor was key to the success of closing on our dream home together! Choosing Ed Pluchar as our realtor was the best decision we made during this whole process! From his friendly, kind and caring demeanor, he was professional the entire process while keeping it fun! Ed Pluchar not only made our lives easier when it came to communication with all parties involved, while we went to work each day and gave us daily updates, but also gave us advice and support through every step of the process!! He helped us critique each house based on things he knew we wanted, and he also gave us great professional opinions along the way in order for our emotions to not get the best of us! Additionally, we had a lot of questions from how we could fix little things in a house to all the nooks and crannies that come with the process of buying a house- Ed was able to answer them all, and when he couldn't find the right person to ask he always found the person who could answer it. When we go to sell our home and buy another one- we will start by call our realtor Ed Pluchar!
