ZillowVERIFIEDFrank and Ivette did a great job of explaining how they would help us sell our home. They did market analysis and provided guidance on pricing which got us very close to our end sale price that we needed to close. They helped us get the home sold in short order and guided us through our closing which made it very simple.

ZillowVERIFIEDIf you need a realtor that goes above and beyond, look no further than Frank & Ivette. We will never use anyone else for any of our real-estate needs. After months and months of searching for a home that fit our needs, we were ready to take a pause on buying a house altogether. Once we had Frank on our team, he found us a place and got us exactly what we were looking for! He made possible what other realtors told us was impossible. I write this with the utmost confidence that Frank & Ivette will treat each of their clients like family, as they did for us. They are the answer to all of your house-hunting woes, truly. Thank you Frank for helping us meet our goal of buying a house! We couldn't have done it without him.

ZillowVERIFIEDFrank and Ivette have a good knowledge of the local market. Very personable and comfortable to work with. Gave good advice on what needed to be fixed to make the house more attractive to buyers and where we didn't need to put in extra work/money. Priced the house accordingly to bring the most buyers in and expediate the sale.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy girlfriend and I recently bought and sold a home. With the demand for housing it was tough to find a house. Ivette sent us new listings the day they were listed and was always available for fast scheduling of walk throughs. We went and seen every house we thought had potential. Ivette was very knowledgeable about the areas and extremely helpful in the selection of our house. The inspection was informative. Closing was very smooth and stress free! Was a great experience! When it came to selling our current house, Ivette had a client lined up since the housing demand is so high. We ended up closing 4 days early and it went as smooth as it could go. We can not say enough good things about our experience with Ivette and we would use and recommend her in the future for all our real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDI just closed on my first house! I was referred to ivette by my cousins who she helped them find 2 of their houses in the past. Let me just say ivette is VERY knowledgeable! I told her what I was looking for and where and she knew exactly what to show me. Anytime I had a question she would respond to me in less then 5 mins! I'm very impatient as a person and with ivette she got things done quickly for me and it was stress free! She negotiated the right deal for me and best of all...I didnt know what to look for like if a house was good or had defects when we went to go see them but as soon as we walked into my first showing ivette pointed out the things I need to be cautious on. I def will use her in the future and I highly recommend her! Most of all that I appreciated the most is that ivette is not a pushy realtor just to make a sale she is passionate about finding her clients their dream home. Thank you ivette !!!!! The

ZillowVERIFIEDIt was absolutely wonderful working with Frank & Ivette. I have a lot of professional experience working with many Relators across my career.Frank and Ivette from the first phone call have been the most responsive, flexible and knowledgeable Relators I have had the pleasure of working with. They new the market inside and out and were able to get me more money for my home than I thought possible. They are excellent negotiators, calm, poised, strategic and genuine in their approach.Selling and/or buying a home can be an extremely emotional experience. They made me feel calm, like family, made me feel confident at the highest level that they had my best interest and well being in mind.They will be my Realtors for life.

ZillowVERIFIEDI don't write reviews very often, but my experience in working with Frank and Ivette far exceeded any expectations I had going in. In fact---and at the risk of sounding like a commercial---I can't imagine working with, or recommending, anybody else in the southwest suburbs going forward.My mother decided to sell her home several years ago. I tried to help her with the process, but we weren't having any success at all. She'd worked with five different real estate agents with the same results. A handful of open houses and some newspaper ads, but very few showings. Most seemed more interested in lowering the price than working hard to find the right buyer.Then we were referred to Frank and Ivette. From the first meeting, something seemed different. Frank was very direct about the challenges with the property. But while most realtors seemed to overpromise and underdeliver, Frank very clearly managed my mother's expectations. Most importantly, though, he mapped out a specific plan and showed how he and Ivette would list, market and show the house.And they delivered. During the time we've worked with Frank and Ivette, they've marketed aggressively and had more showings in the first few months than all of the previous realtors combined. They certainly get the "little things" right. The things you'd hope and expect they would. They're (very) responsive, they work hard and they communicate often. They have a process. And it works. I think the biggest takeaway from listing with Frank and Ivette was simple. They go above and beyond. They not only deliver on their commitments, I always got the sense that they were truly looking out for my mother's best interest. That was really clear when my mother had a change of heart and decided to stay in the family home. Even at that point, and after all of the time they'd invested, Frank and Ivette were very understanding and accommodating. And that left a strong impression.If you're currently working with a realtor and they're just not getting it done for you, and based on this experience, I'd highly recommend that you reach out to Frank and Ivette.

ZillowVERIFIEDFrank and Ivette were a pleasure to work with. We just purchased our second home and sold our first home. We used Velocity Real Estate for all three transactions. The buy/sell process was very smooth, and Frank was helpful in scheduling appointments and making sure our needs were met throughout the entire process. Throughout showings Frank would offer advice and point out things wrong with homes that we would otherwise overlook. We will always use and recommend Velocity for any real estate services.

ZillowVERIFIEDRecently my husband and I bought a our new home! Since this was our first home we needed to find a good specialist whom we could trust. For us this person was Ivette Hollendoner.We want to express our deep gratitude to the Velocity Real Estate Group and personally to Ivette for high professionalism, impeccable organization of work, reliability and focus on results! This is the best real estate agency in the Chicagoland area where all your wishes will be taken into account and you will be provided with highly professional support. Ivette is a knowledgeable, competent specialist and a wonderful person. Ivette was very responsive to any questions and gave us informative answers. Without a doubt I can say that Ivette is a high-level professional. She gave us a lot of valuable and wise advises. Working with her is very easy and pleasant.

ZillowVERIFIEDInitially met Frank & Ivette at the Velocity real estate seminar that they hosted last winter. We aEURoewere soldaEUR? with their professional, informative & personal approach to what felt like a tremendous task ahead! Together they assisted with excellent recommendations for renovating & staging the home we loved for 39 years. They were so right that the appropriate, but not excessive improvements, really did make a difference! The financial return far surpassed our expenses incurred! AND our home had its first offer within 5 days, resulting in eventual sale!Very impressed with how responsive they were to our questions all along the way. Always getting 2 perspectives on decision making & strategizing made the sale process so much easier. Would highly recommend Frank & Ivette, and look forward to promoting them to friends & family in future. They truly care about guiding you through a typically stressful experience, & instead make it a POSITIVE EXPERIENCE! THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!

She knew I saw a vision and made it happen, honest to god she knew me like the back of her hand! I love this team, and whats even more crazy is we just clicked a house we were interested in and we got her as our realitor! So lucky to have matched! 10/10, if I can give her a 20/10 I would!!!!!

She answered all our questions and explained how to prepare out property for sale. Ivette responds right away all the time. When we were looking for a house to buy she pointed to things that I never thought of but it was something important to consider. If you need to sell or buy I would definitely recommend Frank Lardino and Ivette Hollendoner.
