Miriam assisted us with purchasing a condo. She was fantastic! Very professional, organized, and patient as we looked at quite a few properties. When we communicated with her, she always got back to us right away. She gave constructive feedback with our questions, and helped us negotiate to get a final price we were happy with. She arranged for both our inspector and our lawyer to make the process as smooth as possible. We ended up with no hiccups and a smooth closing. Highly recommend!

My husband and I had been looking for a place for over a year, had put in over a dozen offers on multiple places and lost them all before coming to Matt and his team. Best decision we made and the first offer we put in with him, we got the place. He knows the market well, he is respected and trusted by other agents and he is honest. He doesn't push you but he is a straight shooter. He is responsive and never makes you feel like he is too busy for you. Additionally, his whole team is organized, responsive and thorough. Somehow they made the process easy and made sure you knew what steps came next. Will recommend Matt to anyone and everyone. You can't go wrong with him!

We met Matt while looking for a new lender and werent in the market to switch Realtors. But as soon as we met him, he introduced us to his preferred lender, and it was immediately clear we were in front of a true professional. We decided to move forward with Matt, and it was a night and day difference. This guy never sleeps and wakes up talking Chicago real estate. When we found the property we wanted, his entire team swooped into action. We had a clear play by play the whole time while they handled all the heavy lifting. Matt and his team will be the only people getting a call when I'm ready for my next property.

Miriam was absolutely incredible to work with for our recent condo purchase at The Heritage. As frequent travelers to Chicago, we needed a broker who understood both the high-rise market and the logistical nuances of a complex purchase. Miriam's communication was proactive, and her attention to detail during the inspection and closing process was unmatched. She is a true advocate for her clients and navigated every hurdle with ease. If you are looking for a highly skilled, responsive, and deeply knowledgeable professional in Chicago, look no further than Miriam.
