    Erin was a delight to work with. Her personality is always positive and she was very accommodating when it came to working with my schedule. Erin is very knowledgeable. Mine was a Condo purchase instead of a house and Erin knew all the subtle differences with contracts, insurance and HOA fees. Erin also was very helpful when questions arose with my realtor in Wisconsin handling the sale of my house. She was always willing to make that extra call just to confirm information. I would highly recommend Erin as your next realtor!

    As first time homebuyers, we were overwhelmed and had so many questions throughout the process. Finding the right home for us was truly a roller coaster as we were in a tough market. However, Erin was so reassuring every step of the way and truly became our trusted advisor. She was so patient in showing us so many homes and never making us feel rushed to make a decision. Thanks to her reminding US to stay patient and not force the process, we ended up in the perfect home for us and I'm so thankful!

    We were making a long distance move from FL to Crystal Lake, IL. Erin assisted with every aspect of our move, from helping us find a wonderful realtor in FL for our sale there to finding a local moving company to assist with our move. We ultimately decided on new construction In Crystal Lake and Erin was here for us every step of the way. She attended meetings with our builder, helped us find a lot, assisted with choosing inside and outside finishes, sent us construction updates and photos, and even attended our final walkthrough. The entire process went very smoothly and the timing for our move was perfect. Erin's knowledge, patience and professionalism made our difficult move seamless! Thank you, Erin!
