We called Larry to list our house. He advised us on just how to present the home for showings. Larry gave it his all and got our property sold. From pushing the sign in our yard Larry did right by us. Stayed with us all the way through closing.
I approached Larry In December 2016 to discuss selling my house on the chain of lakes. Larry suggested we put it on the marked in February.I was surprised he thought February was a good time to list a lake house as February weather is usually not the greatest.We put the house on the market in mid February, we had an offer by mid March and we closed in April.Larry did a great job with the entire process!!
Working with Larry Fales on the purchase of our last property was seamless. In the purchase process, he suggested the perfect property according to our "wish list", and made the negotiation easy to walk through. His knowledge of this area, as well as market trends help educate us through the experience as well. We appreciated his timely responses, and attention to updates as needed. We would certainly use Larry for our future real estate needs.
Larry was forthright upfront and refreshingly honest. He is very pleasant responsive and knowledgeable. I have not experienced this from other realtors.
Larry provided suggestions on rental price and helped us find tenants in Grays lake area very fast. He always responds prompt with our inquires. Very helpful!
Larry was available through phone, text & email and answered questions throughout the process of selling my mom's home. He understood the area & was helpful in the pricing process.
We had a great experience selling our home with Larry. He was up front about what we could do to make our home more appealing & set realistic expectations for us. We appreciate all the time he took to reassure us when we were worried about selling our home quickly. We would recommend Larry without reservation to anyone selling or buying in Lake County!
Been talking with Larry for a couple of years to sell our rental house. He has been looking for our optimum time to sell. Well 2016 was the year. We Cleaned it up and with his guidance got it to look great. the house was sold fast to a qualified buyer, at the price we asked for.. And best of all the inspections, the appraisal, and especially the closing went off without any issues. When we had questions or concerns he responded fast either by a text, email or Phone call. This was a great help to our family. I think all parties; seller and buyer benefited with Larry's experience. Thanks for this opportunity to tell our story.
I would highly recommend Larry for any listing or buying needs. He went above and beyond my expectations. Communication was spot on, I knew exactly what was happening at all times. He is very knowledgeable and made the house sell transaction seem easy. I can't say enough good about Larry Fales.
I called Larry in November - amid many distractions, Larry listed our home in a timely manner. The house was sold within 90 days. Easy to work with, I would use Larry again if I ever have the need
Larry was great to work with. Very knowledgeable. He always responded to our questions promptly. He made the process of listing and selling our home very easy. We highly recommend him.
Working with Larry was a pleasure. He'll give you honest answers, straight talk and will go the extra mile to make the sale. Keeps in touch often, keeping it casual yet professional. I would not hesitate to work with him again and would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Larry has been an excellent agent. I'm very impressed with his professionalism, expertise, helpfulness and friendly manner. He made our home selling experience easy and stress free. He provided needed advice as well as handy men contacts for repairs that actually saved us money. I couldn't have asked for a better real estate agent.
Have worked with Larry on numerous properties and known him for many years. Have always found him to be responsive, consultative and expert when it comes to developing a strategy for buying/selling a home. Unlike other agents I've dealt with in the past who simply get the listing and then let others do the work, Larry stays engaged and markets the property to try find buyers in what has been a tough market the last decade. He's been very flexible and accommodating in terms of taking my wife and I to look at properties. Any day, any time, he's "always-on" and what you want when you partner with a agent.
We had a great home buying experience with Larry, and I recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Larry did a great job of explaining the process when we first met. He listened to what we were looking for and told us what we could expect. Throughout the entire process, Larry was always easy to get ahold of which was really nice. After looking at about 15 houses, we found the one for us. Larry did a great job negotiating the deal. He even walked us through the closing so we didn't need an attorney! Thank you Larry!
Great realtor to work with, I hired Larry to sell our home because of his reputation and his huge client base, it seems like Larry's name is on every for sale sign. What I like about Larry is the personal attention I got from him, even though he has many clients I was made to feel like I was his only client. I was happy to have him on our side when we negotiated our offer. Would recommend Larry to anyone thinking about buying or selling
Larry earned every penny of his commission, as he not only priced the house accordingly, but his recommendation for items to correct to make home more marketable were spot-on. He fully understands the current market and trends, provided valuable information on the negotiating side, and was extremely tentative to all leads and follow ups. He has established many professional contacts during his years as a Real Estate Professional which is extremely beneficial when any concerns should arise. This was a difficult transition for my mother but Larry and his staff handled it in an OUTSTANDING fashion. I highly recommend him for any of your real estate needs.Brad Schneider

We had a very good experience with Larry as our realtor. Larry is one of the most knowledgeable in the business and is very prompt in answering any and all questions we brought to him. Larry made this very stressful time in selling our home and moving a lot easier. I would recommend Larry to anyone wanting to buy or sell a home.
I am so glad I chose Larry Fales for my real estate agent when putting my house up for sale. He was 'right on' with his suggestions. He provided me with names of people who could help me in the process.....instead of just telling me what should be done. We had a lot of showings and my house sold in 4 months. Larry was always available when I had a question. Not only is he professional, he was very easy to deal with.
I always believed that true leadership emerges when faced with challenges and adversity. Any realtor can find and help a client buy a home if they have a large down payment, excellent credit score, either no current house to sell or a very marketable one, time to transition from a current living arrangement, etc. We had a challenging situation in finding a home after moving from California to Illinois. Larry stepped up to the challenge and was persistent in chasing down every opportunity that might work for us. He was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable about the process and the market, and committed to getting us into a house in which we would be happy. The result of his commitment and expertise is that we were able to move directly into a house in Illinois from California, without having to put our goods into storage or live temporarily for a while, despite some very challenging circumstances. Based on his expertise, experience, commitment to his clients, and strong relational skills, I would highly recommend Larry to anyone looking to buy or sell a home, under ANY circumstances.
I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Larry Fales on many occasions. His professionalism, enthusiasm, follow through, andA making his customer feel as though they are the most important client he has,A are simply the best our market has to offer.A Larry and his Remax Advantage team have earned my trust for over three decades. His knowledge in all areas of the real estate market is second to none.A His marketing program for sellers and approach to helping the buyer find the right property, is coupled with world class customer service! Larry's insight and knowledge of the current market & market trends, has helped countless people in our market, as well as having trained scores of other current successful real estate professionals in our area.That being said, Larry is quite simply the very best of them all.Thank you LarryaEUR|aEUR|GSweets
Larry is very professional to work with. He has great knowledge and experience in the real estate market! He is a great choice if your are looking for an honest and reliable agent!
Larry Fales is by far one of the best experts in real estate that I know! Personally working with Larry for years now he has dedicated most of his life to earn the skills needed in the ever changing fast real estate market of today. Larry has personally helped me , my friends , and family members in several transactions throughout the years to obtain the highest collar for the seller and negotiated what I believe was the best money savings cost for the buyers. We all continue to use Larry Fales through the decades and this review should encourage anyone else to do the same. His track record, awards and closed transactions speak volumes. He tells it like it is and is the best choice for anyone looking to do a real estate transaction
Larry is the most knowledgeable Realtor in Lake County. He is not trying to just sell you a house, he works diligently to find you a home for you and your family and friends to enjoy life in.
We called Larry out of the blue to help us with a short sale. Short sales in general can be complicated, but this went beyond the usual. Larry's experience and expertise guided us through the process. In addition, he went above and beyond to get the deal done when we thought we were going to lose the house due to a late offer from another potential buyer. All worked out well, we have a great new house, and we highly recommend Larry for all your real estate needs.

Larry was my very first experience with a realtor as I was buying my first house. I felt as though he took that into consideration when talking about things. He made sure I understood every term and part of the process. By the time everything was done and closed I felt as though I was really helped by Larry. He made this as entire process go smoothly.
Larry over the year has been very straight, quick to respond, and looked out for my interest in reasonably every case. I would recommend Larry in a heart beat.
Larry has been a great asset for the sale and purchase of our homes. As a person that believes in data, I respect his honest approach that was backed up with very specific local data and trend reports. This and his many years of experience has helped us make the right decisions regarding our homes. He definitely added value to the process and we appreciate that.
A++++++!!!We have worked with Larry to sell and purchase a new home. We sold our home VERY quickly with Larry - and he was very helpful all the way through. Larry is very well known and respected, is very resourceful, and is extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of home sales and purchases. He has a great perspective of "ancillary" knowledge of the homes/neighborhoods in our area as well such as the builders of homes, quality of construction, and benefits of certain schools in our area. He was very responsive and timely to any questions we had or scheduling showings/viewings. Larry was very knowledgeable and had multiple resources to guide us through a VA purchase as well! We are extremely happy with Larry's services and and would recommend him to anyone looking for an agent sell their home or purchase a property as well!

Understanding each person's responsibilities created reasonable expectations and my wife and I couldn't be happier with the result, we sold our house with Larry's help!
