As first-time home buyers, we could not have asked for a better experience working with Matt and his team. During the initial phase of the process you could tell Matt intimately knew the neighborhoods we were looking in and precisely what to expect from each property we toured. We valued all his expertise and insights about each building we expressed interest in. Any questions we had along the way were responded to very quickly, whether it was email, talk, or text. As far as his negotiation skills, we won the very first bid we offered! Throughout the closing process we appreciated the constant communication and organization of his team to achieve a seamless 30 day close. There's no question Matt is a master at his craft and we would easily recommend him and his team for all your real estate needs.

I realized once again how important a real estate agent is. Matt Laricy and his team were not only fast but also very accurate in their work, and I truly felt I could trust them throughout the process. If I buy or sell a home again in the future, I will definitely contact them. I would also highly recommend them to my friends and acquaintances.

Matt and Jaime were a great team and supported our purchase of a condo in Streeterville. Matt is very knowledgeable about the Chicago real estate market and helped us develop a set of reasonable expectations for our purchase. He and Jaime were always timely with responses to our questions. Matt was on-site with us for inspection and walk-through, and available to answer questions throughout the process. The "behind the scene" support we received from Jaime exemplified true customer service. She established a To Do time-line at the onset, delineating all the steps that would be necessary to lead to a successful close. She was always timely with her guidance and reminders and prepared us for every step of the transaction, from completing necessary paperwork, setting up earnest money payments, being at the ready with names of inspectors, handyman, painters and plumbers, to preparing us for closing and the wire transfer of funds. If you are looking for a team that is straight-forward and next to you through every step of the process, I highly recommend Matt and his team.
