Ken was super super helpful when my roommate and I were searching for an apartment! Having his help made the process so much easier. Ken was great about finding options that fit our needs/wants. I am so grateful for his help, and the time and effort he put into assisting the search for an apartment. I highly recommend him! We were able to find an amazing place that suited all of our needs, super thankful for all of Kens hard work.
Ken was so very helpful in helping us not only buy our first home, but as our family grew, he helped us find our new one! He was always very responsive and listened to our needs in finding our new home. He even provided amazing vendors to help get our first home sale ready! He maintained our first home while it was on the market and worked hard to find a great buyer. Ken is great at his job and very friendly! I would definitely recommend him if you are looking to buy or sell.
Ken was great to work with. He was very quick to respond and help me with all of my requests and questions. I had never gone through the rental process, and Ken helped me a lot. He made the process easy. He even worked the holidays to make sure I had a place to go when my house sold. I highly recommend!
Ken helped us find our dream home! As first time home buyers, my wife and I weren't sure if we would find the right house in this 'hot market' - Ken reassured us every step of the way, sharing helpful data on market trends and flagging properties that he thought would be a good fit. While Ken was our trusted advisor, we also loved working with him because of his personality. He demonstrated that he truly cared about finding us the right home in our budget. We got to know him over our home search, and he's a wonderful person.We'd work with Ken again in a heartbeat - luckily, it'll be a while since we have no intent on moving from our perfect home!
I needed a realtor to show me a property same day, end of day. Zillow assigned Ken to me and I am so glad they did. I had worked with other realtors and it seemed I always had to wait or they would blow me off. Ken was out to me immediately. Properties were moving quickly and I needed to make an offer right away. Ken made it happen. He was so attentive throughout the whole process. He kept me informed at every step and followed up with me to make sure everything went smoothly. He even checked up on my just to see how I felt about everything and how I was doing. I highly recommend Ken. He stood up for me not just sat back and watched. He guided me. Definitely recommend! Ken is awesome!
Ken is a very knowledgeable and experienced realtor. As I was a first time buyer, he was able to explain and walk through the home buying process for me. When I accidentally made a mistake near the end of the closing process, he helped keep things calm and reassured me that that the mistake was not uncommon and could be resolved.
Ken Barilich is a wonderful guy and helped us from beginning to end. He was very very helpful patient and understanding. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a new home or apartment!
Ken made me feel very reassured about finding housing and was able to find me a great place well within my budget! He was very communicative and sent me many options.
Getting ahold of Ken was a nightmare with all the different numbers I texted but weren't directly to him or his main number. He sent me an apartment search survey, which I filled out immediately but then he asked me to do it again despite having already done it. When I asked about a property, he only said, "The best thing for you to do is call the building and take a tour of available apartments in your price range." No help with contacting the property whatsoever, not even a number to call or even an offer to see if there was any additional information he could gather as an agent which would likely be more than I would have probably received calling myself. Turned out the property had been super underpriced on the FG website to attract attention, but it was actually way more expensive than advertised so of course I didn't tour it. The survey I completed already detailed everything I was looking for but despite having this all information, he didn't send any properties or follow up at all after that.
Excellent customer service and support! Answered all my questions and was always so diligent in doing his job as a realtor along with being very knowledgeable ! I recommend his services to everyone! ????
Ken was so incredibly helpful in the process of finding our apartment. He was extremely responsive and patient with us. He listened to our desires and found tons of good options for us. The apartment we ended up with was not posted on the major sites, so we wouldnt have ended up with our perfect apartment without him! Thank you Ken!!
He did a GREAT job finding us the exact home we wanted. We saw probably around 10 places and it must not have been easy for him but it was incredibly helpful to us. would recommend!
Ken was very friendly and knowledgeable of the local area! He even recommended various restaurants for us to try once we move in. He was very helpful when communicating with the owner as well.
Ken has been very helpful for me for the last two apartments I have rented. He has been instrumental in negotiating leases and communicating with landlords and property managers, and always checks in to make sure everything is going well. Recently, he found (in my opinion) the best property on the market that met my needs and we were the first to see it because of his extensive knowledge of the market and proactive communication with me and the owner. He also has great relationships with everybody, and having him on my side has been very beneficial for the last few years. I highly recommend Ken.

One word to describe Ken is Amazing! If you are looking for a knowledgeable, responsive, patient and honest agent then give ken a call! I went through a few agents before meeting Ken. I'm very selective when making big investments. Therefore, I don't trust easily and needed someone who had the same mindset. Ken went above and beyond to find me a great house, within budget. Ken was very knowledgeable about real estate investments. We went into the process with a solid strategy and ended up with great results. Buying any property is a long and tedious process. Therefore, Ken was a great advisor (consultant) from start to finish. His level of professionalism and financial acumen was remarkable. I would definitely recommend Ken!
Ken is the best! Not only was he kind and knowledgeable but he was so patient in the search for these first timer homeowners first house. He helped my family find our dream home and for that I will be forever grateful.
A joy to work with! He made everything so easy and went out of his way to make sure we had all we need. Would definitely recommend to absolutely anyone.
Working with Ken was amazing! He helped me find the perfect apartment in a short time frame that fit all of our requests. If we hit a bump in the road with our search, he always did another search so quickly to make sure we found the perfect place for us in time for when we wanted to move in. I'm new to the process, but any questions I had were answered the same day and Ken made the process simple as could be! I don't think we could've found a good place without Ken, he was the best!

Ken was amazing, professional, dedicated prompt and most importantly vested in his clients interest 100%. We would recommend Ken to anyone for he is trustworthy and will do his best to help you sell/buy you home.
Ken is very helpful getting you through the process. Ken provides all information needed and responds very fast. Ken gives you time to decide what home you want for your family. Looking forward to work with Ken once again.
Ken helped me purchase a large, tricky, and unique investment property from a stubborn seller and handled the whole process professionally and promptly. Although there were many setbacks and surprises outside of our control throughout the deal, he stuck in there and helped plenty of times along the way with a positive attitude. As an expert in the Chicago market, he addressed any nuances or concerns honestly and quickly. He's just an all-around knowledgeable, genuine, and friendly guy!
Words cannot describe how awesome Ken was with my short notice move to Chicago! He got me every amenity that I asked for and was able to get my dream location in downtown Chicago at a reasonable price that fit my budget. I would 100% recommend him for any move that you need! The overall process even during this crazy time in 2020 was very smooth. Ken went out of his way to make sure that there were places near by that would be convenient for me to get comfortable with the area. Any question that I had was always answered the same day! Do yourself a favor and choose Ken Barilich for your move; you won't regret it!
Working with Ken was an absolute pleasure! He is extremely knowledgable and very dedicated to finding you the perfect home. I truly felt that Ken was a great advocate for me while talking to landlords and made sure to get very detailed information about each property. He was very flexible and responsive for showings and following up about any questions I had about the property. Ken goes above and beyond to find a great home for each of his clients - I would highly recommend working with him!
Ken was much more responsive than any other agent I tried. He responded quickly to all my requests and would take into account any and all of my preferences. He made find an apartment a thousand times easier than trying to find one on my own.
Ken was our agent when my husband and I were looking for a new apartment in February 2020. I used an apartment-finding app to submit interest in a location, and Ken was the agent who responded. He was enthusiastic and offered to help us find the perfect place beyond the one I had initially inquired about. He sent me emails of potential apartments, asked what we were looking for, and took us on several open houses for available apartments. He was always kind and listened to our needs, even when it meant we rejected places over and over. He was happy to help us navigate making the right decision and worked hard to help us find the right place. We ended up in the perfect apartment thanks to Ken's diligence, and we're so thankful we got to work with him. I wish every agent was like Ken! Plus, he sent us a congratulatory bottle of wine when we moved in. He is a wonderful agent and we'd highly recommend him!
Ken was so amazing to work with. I never would've been able to find as many good candidates to check out if it wasn't for his help, and he has an amazing knowledge of the area which really helped me find a place I love. It was legitimately fun looking at places together. Can't recommend Ken enough!
Ken saved the day for me and my family. I have never used a real estate professional to look for an apartment before but being that I am a very busy professional myself, I dont have the time to search and negotiate with property owners. Ken was very meticulous about understanding my specifications and only showed me apartments that were viable candidates. He never wasted my time looking at places that didnt stand a chance. Considering my large family size and the time crunch we were under (30 days), I'm still amazed at what he was able to find for us. We couldnt be happier in our new, spacious, comfortable apartment. 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a cute little room for the baby. When its time for me to purchase my first property I'm definately calling on Ken and his expertise.

Ken goes above and beyond! He is the only reason I was able to find a home in the timeframe that I had to work with. He is professional, friendly, and hardworking. I cannot recommend his services enough!
Ken Barilich and his team at Fulton Grace got the job done with professionalism and efficiency. They were communicative and did what they said they were going to do. We will reach out to Ken anytime we need real estate services.
Ken was a delight to work with! I always looked forwarded to meeting him to view properties and he always came prepared with the necessary information and contacts. Ken also knows the Chicago area to a T and has tons of great recommendations. I'll also be recommending Ken to all my friends and family in their property hunt. I would work with Ken in a heartbeat but he already found me the perfect home!
Finding and apartment with Ken was such a wonderful experience. He knew all about every neighborhood we went to and the good food available there, and showed us some amazing apartments tailored just to our needs, eventually helping us get the apartment of our dreams. A really incredible realtor, and I highly recommend working with him to find any apartment.
This was our first time renting an apartment going through a realtor, and I'm so glad I got connected with Ken. He was a fantastic resource who helped alleviate our concerns and find us great place to rent. Ken is extremely good-natured and relaxed to boot. My roommate and I are new to Chicago, and Ken provided a ton of local knowledge about the areas we looked at. Finally, Ken has very thorough follow-through, and was quick to respond to any questions we had about our landlord and moving in.
The best realtor I have ever dealt with, can't express how me and my firends are insparied and amazed with his job. He goes the extra mile on every little detail even after the we signed the contract.
We met Ken as we were looking for a rental in the city. We came in contact with him once we found a place we were interested in and he accompanied us and our agent on the showing. Ken was very easy going, easy to talk to, and we felt very welcomed in his presence. He was very communicative during the rental process and within a week we signed the lease. Thanks for making this process such a breeze!

Ken was a huge help in finding my current apartment. He was extremely flexible when it came to showing times, he took care of all the details for me and made the process so efficient and easy. As soon as I found an apartment I liked, he got all the next steps rolling for me and also helped me negotiate a new price. I'd highly recommend using Ken when looking for housing!
Ken helped us find the perfect apartment under a very short deadline. We appreciated his knowledge of the city (along with food/restaurant recommendations) as he showed us multiple properties that met our specifications. Great realtor to work with!
Ken was super helpful and prompt. We had less than a week to find an apartment when we met Ken. He was available to show the place we now call home within 24 hours. He was enjoyable to talk to and accommodating to our needs. He was quick with responses and our process of applying for an apartment was seamless.
Ken was really patient and helpful in suggesting us places as per our requirements. A lot of options was provided which helped us narrow down our choices.

Ken did a really great job through and through. We were pretty short on time to find a place, and once we expressed our urgency to him, he seemed to really focus on finding us a great place. He was very flexible in scheduling visits and was always on time or early. Provided really great feedback and advice.
Working with Ken was a great experience! He was candid, thorough, and extremely thoughtful when it came to our asks. We found our new apartment within within the week, and we couldn't be happier.
Ken was an absolute pleasure to work with. I was relocating to Chicago from out of state and he made the search process as easy and efficient as I could have hoped for. i reached out to him and told him my situation and he put together a listing of apartments/condos that fit my profile and requests that I sent. He scheduled all the viewings for a weekend I planned to come out. Ken was constantly in contact with me and was also updating me on new units that were hitting the market before I came to visit. I came out and every viewing was scheduled. He picked me up from hotel and brought me around to each building. It was full class service that I was beyond appreciative of.When we finished the viewings, Ken offered to show me around the city. The different neighborhoods and areas so I could get a sense for the city. That type of service just goes to show the effort and attention Ken puts into all of his clients. I left the city knowing the area, having 3 units I wanted to put in applications for and feeling very confident about the move.I would recommend Ken to anyone looking for property. I will absolutely use him for any leasing/property purchases in the future.Thanks so much Ken!
Ken was responsive, friendly, and willing to show us apartments at our convenience (even during the polar vortex!). He also listened to what we liked and didn't like and made sure to show us apartments that fit our needs. Even after finding our apartment, Ken continued to follow up and to assist us with the process. Thank you for your help Ken!
Ken was extremely helpful when it came to finding a place that fit our need on relatively short notice. I was able to rely on his knowledge as I was quite unfamiliar with the area. He was also very professional and when it came to identifying locations, quickly identified apartments that suited our needs.
Ken was an incredible help to my roommates and myself while looking for a place at an urgent time, only a month before. After visiting some places and still not having found the right one, Ken brought his laptop and sat with us at a coffee shop for 3 hours straight continuing to help search for the right place and did not give up. He called several locations in hopes to schedule a viewing as soon as possible, and the next day we were able to find our place which we are very happy with. Thank you so much Ken!!
Ken helped me find an apartment in the Chicago area. I was moving from out of state and his expertise made the entire process much easier. We spent the entire day together and he was a great host.
