ZillowVERIFIEDWe worked with Michael and his team on both the buy and sell side this summer and if I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Michael's great sales strategy and knowledge of the area helped us get top dollar on our townhome's sale and he set a record for the highest sales price for a unit of our size in our townhome community (congrats on setting records, Michael!) And on the buy side, we were able to lock down the house we wanted on the same day we saw it through Michael's smart negotiations. I highly recommend Michael and his team!

ZillowVERIFIED The Michael Thornton Team @ Compass provided our family with exception support through the difficult sale of our mother's home. They were patient from the start, providing us with guidance on all the details and making us feel confident in their abilities from our first meeting. Michael's real estate expertise gave us the ability to rely on his recommendations which lead to the sale of our home being much more profitable and smooth than we ever anticipated. He and his team lead us through the process, guided us on staging well in advance to give us time to prep before they came and added their own touches before photography. They went above and beyond to make sure we were feeling good throughout the process. Their knowledge, availability and patience made us feel like we were their only client. We 100% will be using their team in the future and recommending to anyone in the area. We couldn't be happier with the outcome!

ZillowVERIFIED Michael and his team did a tremendous job throughout the whole process of selling our home. They helped us understand the market, what to expect, staging the house, and guide us through important decisions. They are always around to answer the many random questions that come up, and made the stressful selling process as easy as it could go! Highly recommended!

ZillowVERIFIED Michael and his team are so incredible! From our very first consultation to closing, every detail of my house sale was perfection. The attention to detail is incredible, but more than that, I really felt like they cared about us. Having someone on your side through this stressful process is so comforting. Do yourself a favor and reach out to Mike.

ZillowVERIFIED Mike and his team are professional, experienced, efficient, kind, and thorough. Thanks to Mike we had a contract on our new house within 2 days! We then entered the whirlwind of preparing our current home to sell, and Mike was so helpful and provided an extensive network of professionals to assist us. We had an offer the first day! Mike kept us informed throughout the whole process and provided insights that not only helped us save money on our purchase but realize the full value of our sale. Its clear that he has a deep knowledge of and care for the community. We highly recommend Mike and his team. You wont find anyone better!

ZillowVERIFIED Michael was quick, thorough, and incredibly easy to work with. From the very beginning we were ahead of the curve and were able to get the property we wanted that fit our exact needs. We went into a competitive offer situation with 3 other bids and with Michael's guidance we were the best in the bunch.Michael has a great network of professionals to back him up from the mortgage, to legal, to inspections and everything in between. He is experienced, professional and also personable.We have already recommended him to another friend who was also able to close on the home they wanted, and will be recommending him to anyone else we can.

ZillowVERIFIED Mike Thornton provided excellent guidance to my wife and I as we were moving from Colorado back to the Chicago area.

ZillowVERIFIED Michael brings strong, local knowledge and listens attentively to understand your needs and goals. As a real estate investor, I've working with Michael on a few property purchases. He supports his experience and knowledge with fact based analysis to help make an informed decision. Additionally, he has proactively gone out of his way to connect me with contractors, handymen and other trades as needed. Whether you're buying a personal home or looking to invest in real estate, Michael should be your key realtor contact.

ZillowVERIFIED Better late than never! Thornton Realty Group thank you so much for helping my family move into our 1st home. Moving here last year from California, I was a bet skeptical to buy a home if we were not planning on staying here permanently but its really helped make Chicago home. Mike was professional, supportive and knowledgeable so it made it easy for us to trust him. He helped us make the best choice on our home and I'm very happy. If i need any other real estate needs, Mike will definitely be my go to guy. Thank you Mike!Rishard and Sandra Lekkas

ZillowVERIFIED Michael helped us both purchase a new home and sell our old one. He walked us through the whole process, from the first showing to the closing on our old property. He is a master at everything real estate: showings, open houses, marketing, talking to other brokers and agents, and dealing with our crazy requests. I am privileged to call Mike a friend, and I am now privileged to call him the best realtor anyone could as for.

ZillowVERIFIED Michael Thornton was an absolute joy to work with! Being first time home buyers, my husband and I were very nervous about starting the hunt. He was able to sit down with us and share his knowledge and expertise, from start to finish, on the entire home buying process. He made us feel so confident and comfortable working with him to find our perfect home! Mike has great intention and genuinely cares about what is most important to you when showing potential homes. After finding our new home, he made the remainder of the process go smoothly and pain-free. It really makes it all seem so easy when you have such a wonderful realtor! He was always available, day or night to answer the many questions we had and point us in the right direction for anything we may have needed. He went above and beyond with thoughtful gifts and handwritten cards, even including a gift for our sweet pup! He is seriously the BEST and we are so grateful to have worked with someone as talented and kind as him! I would recommend him over and over again!

ZillowVERIFIED I worked with Michael Thornton for a few months & bought a townhome last month. Mike has exceeded my expectations, as I have previously worked with other realtors. He listens to his potential buyer's needs & is very timely on appointments and follow up. He has a very stately manner and appearance. A huge plus. If you need an excellent realtor, I would choose Mike Thornton.

ZillowVERIFIED I highly recommend working with Mike Thornton! As a first-time home seller, I was nervous and not really sure what I was doing. He did a thorough market analysis to arrive at the right asking price and marketed my property well. I ended up accepting an offer above asking price! He walked me through everything from choosing and accepting an offer through closing, was quick to respond when I had questions, always worked in my best interest, and took the time to make sure I understood what was happening and what I needed to do. He made the whole process as stress-free and easy as possible!

ZillowVERIFIED Michael was a personal friend before my wife and I began working with him as a realtor. Our professional interactions only cemented what we already knew; Mike is trustworthy, genuine and intentional in all that he does. From our first conversation about real estate goals and the initial steps of the home buying process; to over a dozen viewings and discussions on offers; all the way to our closing, Michael had our best interests in mind and served as a trusted adviser.Services Michael went above and beyond to provide:- Put us in contact with a great lending team- Set up viewings convenient with our schedule and gave time and attention to all of our observations and feelings toward a property- Considered the impact of the process of closing, giving us links and contacts for setting up our utilities ahead of moving in- Always available to discuss strategy, latest developments and any next steps in landing a home that we couldn't be more happy withI couldn't speak more highly of our experience with Michael and am personally grateful to have worked with someone as hard working, kind and talented as he is!

ZillowVERIFIED Mike is THE BEST! From the first showing to the final closing he was super intentional, professional, and helpful. This was my first home-buying experience, and not only was it smooth and painless, but I am walking away raving about the experience! He took care of so many details for us, that we didn't even have to think about, like connecting us with a great attorney, coordinating with the selling realtor, and even reminding us to switch our utilities with an email that had phone numbers for all the providers! At the end of the day, Mike put us in our dream home at a better price than we expected and helped us save money several steps along the way! He also went above and beyond with with hand-written notes, flowers, and more. I cannot recommend Michael Thornton enough! He is the real deal.

ZillowVERIFIED It was a pleasure working with Michael Thornton. After working with other realtors, Mike showed us what a true professional realtor should be. Mike was both informative and instrumental in all areas of our home sale. He went above and beyond on several occasions. We would recommend him as the best realtor we have worked with.

ZillowVERIFIED If you are a first time home buyer or a seasoned home buyer Michael Thornton is the professional to work with. Michael only showed me homes based on what I was looking for, and made my home search easy. Michael also pointed out potential expenses in a home we were viewing and had expert knowledge in the "guts" of a home. Michael was always available to answer my questions and has expert knowledge of lending issues that may arise. Thank you Michael I will definitely refer you to anyone and will use you again in the future.
