ZillowVERIFIEDSteven is phenomenal. He helped me purchase my home. But it goes so much further. Steven is unbelievably responsive, quick to get things scheduled, answer any and all questions (and I asked him countless). Empathetic to any situation youre in or any other experience you have or have had. When I say hes responsive, I mean he answered within an hr anytime I called or reached out. Steven sent me properties that fit my need, scheduled showings at my convenience and was always willing to go the extra mile (or drive to it, quite literally). Even after the closing Steven was there to answer questions, helped out with minor things that I didnt even think to need. I cannot recommend him anymore. If youre thinking about buying, selling, or renting he should be your first point of contact. Honestly one of the nicest, hardworking and genuinely decent people Ive personally ever met. And on every showing he thought of questions for the sellers agent that I wouldnt even think would be needed but he was always there. Truly felt like he had my back and best interest every single step of the way with every single thing in the process and after.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe cannot recommend Steven highly enough! From the very beginning of selling our home to the exciting journey of purchasing our new one, Steven was there every step of the way. He was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer our questions and guide us through the process. Selling and buying a home can be super stressful, but Steven made everything feel manageable. His advice was always thoughtful and honest, and we truly felt like he had our best interests at heart. He took the time to explain things clearly, kept us informed, and helped us make confident decisions throughout the entire process. Thanks to Stevens hard work and dedication, we successfully sold our home and found the perfect new home for our family. We are so grateful for everything he did for us and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor who genuinely cares about his clients. Thank you, Steven, for helping make our dream a reality!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had a wonderful experience working with Steve. We were moving to the northern suburb from out of state and trying to buy a home remotely. Steve was always available, punctual and professional, providing a comprehensive, thorough video tour of homes as if we were actually there in person! We were first time home buyers from out of state, so we had a lots of questions and concerns. Steve is knowledgeable, down-to-earth and always there for us, from getting our offer accepted without going overboard to finding an attorney and mortgage lender. We ended up buying a dream home in this hot market! We will definitely work with him again! Highly recommend!

ZillowVERIFIEDI would recommend Steven Johnson to anyone that is looking for a realtor to help them buy or sell their home. He helped me sell my home in Lake Villa. His knowledge and experience was obvious when he came into my home and advised me on how to get my home ready for pictures to post with the listing. The photos were amazing. Steven held open houses and had showings of my property. He kept me updated with feedback from the showings and the open houses. Any questions I had thru the process he would advise and help me along the way. Steven was always a phone call or text away. Made my selling my home an easy process. Again give Steven a call if buying or selling your home. Joe Kelly

ZillowVERIFIEDI'm not sure if I know enough positive adjectives to describe Steven but trust that he is highly recommended! First, he is exceptional at what he does. He is patient, thorough, responsive and best of all, courteous and upbeat! Steven sent listings to me for many years before I found my perfect fit. He never pressured me about listings and showed me any property I wanted to tour, greeting me with his big smile, friendly personality and boundless energy! If I had questions, they were answered promptly, and as a first time buyer, I had a lot of questions! All in all, Steven made this process fun and as stress-free as possible. If you're looking for a realtor who is as interested in your real estate journey as you are, you need to contact Steven! You will not be disappointed!

ZillowVERIFIEDSteven Johnson is like no other. He is not your typical real estate agent; Steve is family. From the very beginning, Steve showed a different level of work ethic and professionalism with his willingness to answer questions at literally any given time via text, phone call or email. He is extremely well aware of several different locations and the typical selling prices of homes in those areas and the monetary worth of any particular property. His negotiating abilities are second to none and his interpersonal skills are astounding; never did I think you could have such a wonderful and fulfilling professional relationship feel so extraordinarily smooth and seamless. Steve found some really wonderful properties for me and was quick with scheduling showings, I'm talking minutes after contact, not even hours or days. The speed at which he gets you in to see a home is absolutely remarkable. Additionally, he offers great and invaluable insight in not only the amount you should offer, but offers advice on locations, remodeling tips, decorating and more. Steve is an excellent asset to any company and an irreplaceable member of our family! Thank you Steve, for all of your hard work, dedication and ongoing assistance even after the purchase of a home where most just up and forget you exist. Steves continued passion and follow up has made us lifelong customers. Thank you again!

ZillowVERIFIEDIt was a pleasure to work with Steven. Steven was recommended by a friend since we were moving from California to Illinois. He kept in contact with us the whole way until we arrived. Once in town, he had houses ready to show us and was available at all times to answer questions or to put in offers on the houses we wanted to buy. We finally found the perfect house and Steven made sure we were able to see it on short notice. Whether you're buying or selling, Steven is the agent to pick.

ZillowVERIFIEDI've known Steven for a long time, and I always planned to use his services. Boy, am I glad I did. Not only did he provide the best information for a first time home buyer, but he found our house without it being listed on any well-used sites! I'm super grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him. He was super patient with anything me or my partner would bring up, and would always be right there if anything out of the ordinary would happen.Hats off to Steven, I got an amazing property and had the process be relatively painless :D

ZillowVERIFIEDSteven is a very knowledgeable real estate agent. I found Steven online . He did not disappoint. This was my very first real estate deal. When starting this process I found online photos of the property. Steven advised that the only way to get a true idea is to visit. He showed me the property the very next day. The property had many built in custom items. Steven was very knowledgeable on cabinets and home decor. Steven would always respond to calls and text in a timely fashion. Steven was also good keeping me a first time buyer on track with a to-do list. I would recommend Steven to anyone who needs realtor. I would totally use Steven again.

ZillowVERIFIEDSteven was extremely personable, friendly, and honest. He was always prompt to respond and keep us in the loop with updates. He was very patient and since a lot of the process took place via Zoom (as I was moving states), he was more than happy to give us thorough apartment tours (multiple times for some of them). With his help, I was able to find an apartment within my budget in a pleasant area! Would highly recommend!

ZillowVERIFIEDSteven is an excellent real estate agent. Weve worked with him for 2 home purchases and 1 home sale. From the beginning, Steven has always respected our wishes and answered or found answers to all of our questions. Hes attentive, responsive, flexible, and made us feel like we were his only clients. Stevens knowledge of real estate and the real estate process helped us purchase a wonderful home and sell our previous home for a great price. His dedication to his clients and humble honesty make him stand out among other agents. Weve referred him to many friends and colleagues and wouldnt hesitate to work with him again.

ZillowVERIFIEDSteven was an amazing realtor. Was available at any time to go see houses. Sent lots of options to make sure I had options. He got me in touch with the right mortgage company and lawyer both of which were also amazing. He answered any question I had and made sure if he didnt know the answer, he made sure to find out the answer in a timely answer. I would highly recommend Steven to every person who needs a new place to buy or rent. An absolutely amazing and extremely helpful realtor.

He truly went out of his way to help us in any way he could. He was honest and always responsive to all of our questions. He truly was a godsend in helping us sell my mom's condo. I would recommend him over and over again!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy experience with Steven was very pleasant. He made a stressful process to a fun experience. He is very knowledgeable, straight forward and honest. He stuck with me and my family for almost a year. We probably seen over 50 house and townhomes before we finally bought a single family home. He even did the research on exactly what I was looking for. He really makes you feel you are the only client he has. I very highly recommend Steven Johnson to anyone looking to buy a 1st, 2nd or maybe even 20th home. I would even go to him if I decided to move out of state.

We highly recommend Steven to all those looking to rent or purchase a home in the Chicagoland area!

First off, this young man is a true professional. On our first meeting I could tell he understood my concerns when I told him my situation. He was very accommodating and always listened attentively. He was very open and honest and genuinely wanted to help me find the right property. Being a first time investor, there's a lot I didn't know and his advise was invaluable. When it came time to putting in an offer on a home he was a shark. He was aggressive and didn't push me into accepting a price I wasn't comfortable with. From beginning to end I have only great things to say. I'll be referring business his way without a doubt.

ZillowVERIFIEDSteven was recommended to us by one of his previous client who was very happy with the overall services he had delivered in securing the property they wanted to purchase. When I first contacted Steven he was very polite and readily available to discuss our needs. We had no previous experience in selling property so our anxiety levels were very high. We set up an appointment to meet and he was prompt on time. Throughout our meeting he always listened to us and never once given us any false hope in selling our condo. We are so happy that we had chosen him to represent us in selling our condo unit. He had a wealth of experience and expertise in this field. He made us very comfortable and took away the stress and anxiety. I had two previous agents who never seem interested in our views for they had set agendas to just sell our condo for the lowest possible price. Steven had proven these other agencies were undervaluing our condo unit in a competitive market. Never once he had given up hope. He kept us informed through out and his support and reassurance was fantastic. He has excellent customer relation skills and one cannot fault him. He listens to his clients need and delivers the same to a high level of good quality service. We are so happy with the services provided and have recommended him to our friends. Steven thank you for the excellent work, much appreciated and keep up the good work.

ZillowVERIFIEDI'm extremely happy I chose Steven with the sale of my parents house. Steven took the time to answer all my questions and concerns before the house was listed. I never felt rushed or pushed in the process. He explained all the documents, and the whole process. This was an emotional time for me and my family as this was my childhood home. I called Steven many times throughout the sale with various questions and always received a honest and concise answer. Steven understood my concerns and never made me feel silly for asking a question. Steven was wonderful to work with and I will be recommending him to all my friends and family.

ZillowVERIFIEDI worked with Steven 3 times. I was happy after first time when he found me a tenant for one of my properties. He was quick, had a positive attitude and overall I was impressed. I changed my mind when it cames to buying and selling after seeing that he doesn't have an experienced real estate agent skills which are for me: market knowledge and negotiating skills. With market knowledge I can give you example that when I was looking for a place to buy he never had a comps with him and even didn't try to look at them online deeper to avoid me overpaying. He always did a shortcut with his work by looking only at sales prices but not even try to compare interiors. He tried to convince me that some property is worth certain amount when I found that no longer than 3 months earlier similar listing was sold only 10k more but with the fully finished basement basement, additional bathroom, new windows(this place had at least 10 windows), new hardwood floor and overall everything better including each bathroom, kitchen, lighting fixtures etc. He said that I can do similar remodeling when we would negotiate a price by 7k . He doesn't know any construction prices because how I can pay not much less for something without basement at all knowing that other condo at this complex had finished one? New windows? Kitchen, bathrooms? Flooring? It should be lower by at least 35k if this was same complex plus smaller sqft and needed rehab, don't you guys agree on it? With his no negotiation skills I have 2 examples and for both of them he wasn't trying to show the seller that he need to go lower knowing that this price was waaay to much. He is afraid of writing or telling to other agents who represents sellers that for example we saw listing currently sold in better location with better school ratings for better price , he is even afraid to tell that someone's property requires full remodeling when it was obvious and would be helpful for his client to get a better price. Basically he is afraid of being sued about everything and you cannot choose an agent for only his smile, being friendly all the time plus picking up the phone at any time. This isn't made an agent a good agent! For commission anyone would pick up the phone and arrange showings! I also have another example why I'm giving him low score. I also listed my house for sale but I need to start from saying that he was even clueless on how to write a good remarks to the listing and I wrote him what should be written after seeing what did he write when I let him do it and counted on his "knowledge". He didn't specify what has been done since i bought it and what is new etc and without it was impossible to sell it for good price knowing that i bought it less than 6 months earlier, dont you think? So we changed almost everything what he wrote and it worked and we got 4 offers same weekend! If you are wondering why someone who isn't a good agent in my opinion has many recent sales here is your answer: We have currently very hot market (I had 4 offers for my house in 3 days) and every agent has a sales now, even those without much experience and knowledge like Steven. During real estate market crash from 2009-2014 he wouldn't survive for sure but he wasn't in the business yet I guess because of his young age. During this hard time only really gr8 agents had a clients and the rest of agents changed profession for a while or stayed at home without a job. I really feel that he didn't deserve at all his commission because all his done right is being on open house and smiled to those people! I swear that all information in this review is honest and he can now try to write anything he wants, he won't change my opinion!

ZillowVERIFIEDSteven was recommended to us by a colleague at work when we needed to sell a home for a relative that had been moved to assisted living. He was great at navigating us through the process, making sure that the proper documentation was there, setting a reasonable and honest price for the home, helping us when we received MANY offers right after his first-weekend open house, and checking on the property frequently (as it was vacant) when we got a lot of rain. He was always professional and acted as our guide in this journey, giving us the advice we needed but ultimately letting us make the decisions without any pressure. He established trust and was honest about everything (including all fees and commissions).

ZillowVERIFIEDmy wife lost his brother on october 30 2016. the best quality that he has is quick response to any and all questions. steven was always professional and quick to act. we had an estate sale that steven had set up. while working on the estate sale he found a buyer for the house. this buyer did not work out but got us another buyer in a day or two. this also fell thru but got us another buyer that same day. the third buyer wound up buying the house on march 15. without steve's quick response it would have taken twice as long. Steven was a terrific realtor and i passed his name to my friends. Thank you Steven for all your hard work!!

ZillowVERIFIEDSteven Johnson is a nice guy to work, who responds any time and answers any question or gets answers quickly. He is good at finding tenants, expected him to be little stronger on my side if there is any discussion with buyers agent since he is my realtor. Rest of things he is excellent and nice to work with him. He found a tenant with in a week, hope to continue to work with him in future.

ZillowVERIFIEDI have nothing but positive things to say about the recent service I received from Steven. I used his professional assistance when I was searching for a new place, which I found and now thoroughly enjoy! I have also used his professional assistance in the sale of my previous residence. He was able to provide a realistic appraisal of not only what price to ask but also provide suggestions regarding minor preparation that should be done before putting it on the market. I would recommend Steven to others in need of a reliable real estate professional.

ZillowVERIFIEDSteven helped us with our rental property to find a good tenant. He was ambitious and yet thorough in his approach. The property was rented out the day it was put on the market. This is because Steve has done an excellent job of coaching us on the house appearance, stressed the importance of getting the house ready before the July 4th weekend. He was responsive whenever we called him and followed through on our requests. Even though it was a holiday weekend and he was going away, he made sure all loose ends are tied up before he left and made himself available all through the weekend! Even after the property is rented out, he continues to stay in touch to see if everything is OK and is there anything he could help with. We were extremely pleased with his service!

ZillowVERIFIEDSteve Johnson did an amazing job in selling my mother's property in Crystal Lake. He was knowledgeable and very honest in his dealings with me. He was always on top of things and was in constant communication with the progress of selling from start to finish. Have never done anything like this before, he was so patient with all my questions and concerns. You would be hard pressed to find a better person to work with in the selling of any property. Should I ever need a broker again, Steve Johnson will be my first choice.
