ZillowVERIFIEDI've worked with Ted on a few transactions now, and he's been absolutely fantastic every time. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs an experienced and knowledgeable real estate broker.

ZillowVERIFIEDTed helped us find our first condo. When it was time to upgrade to a single family home a few years later, we of course went back to him. Ted expertly guided us through the process of selling and buying at the same time. He was able to tap into his network to sell our condo for more than we expected before it was even publicly listed. He was equally great on the purchase side and was an amazing advocate through the negotiation and closing process.

ZillowVERIFIEDI recently sold a house with Ted and while this can be a very stressful process, I felt 110% confident by partnering with Ted. He was candid, provided great feedback, helped explain clearly all details and managed the actual sale negotiation brilliantly. In addition, he was extremely responsive to every one of my questions, no matter how small. I am extremely certain Ted was the right partner to help me navigate this process and would recommend him to anyone buying or selling!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe absolutely loved our homebuying experience with Ted. Though it's clear that Ted is a busy, hardworking guy, he never made us feel that he was too busy to take care of us. He was always available and gave us his time when we had questions or needed to talk things through. The house we wanted had multiple offers, and I'm certain that without Ted's ingenuity and skill, we wouldn't be happy homeowners right now! We couldn't be more grateful to Ted for the support that he gave us. Highly recommend!

ZillowVERIFIEDTed provided excellent services in the marketing and sale of our multi-unit building. He had two offers on the property on the first day of the listing. He helped with minor issues that arose during the contract negotiations and answered our questions throughout the process.

ZillowVERIFIEDWorked with Ted back in 2010 to buy a 2-flat in Chicago on the Northwest side. He was great throughout that process, so when it was time to sell last year, worked with Ted again and he sold the place quickly and got us a great price. Always professional and super responsive at all times- really a joy to work with.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe love our new house and Ted! My boyfriend and I decided to work with Ted per a friend's recommendation and we couldn't have been any happier with that decision. We bought our first home with Ted's help. We knew nothing about home ownership or the buying procress and he made us feel comfortable with all our newbie questions. He went above and beyond to make himself available for last minute home showings, late night phone and text questions. We will definitely use him again in the future and would recommend him to anyone looking to buy in Chicago!

ZillowVERIFIEDOur 1 year anniversary in the condo is creeping up and has made be reflect back on the experience of purchasing our first home. We are lucky enough to have been in the hands of Ted who embodies everything a realtor should be and more. We always felt bad about 'bothering' him or asking him the same question multiple times but he never once made us feel like idiots or a burden. He made us feel like a top priority in his book, even though we weren't by any means 'bid spenders'! With many years under his belt in this industry (old man JK JK) his knowledge will put you at ease during the buying/selling process! Reach out to Ted for his expertise and assistance and you will NOT be disappointed.

ZillowVERIFIEDThis was our first home-buying experience, and Ted was just the guy to have on our side. He helped us look at a few condos that we thought we were interested in seeing and was flexible when we did a 180 in what we were looking for. He was responsive to all of our questions about this unknown (to us) home-buying process and inquiries about places we saw online. At showings, Ted was great in his practicality and considering aspects of a home that we didn't think about. It was so helpful to have that extra eye when you have so many things you're thinking about in your house search. Ted was really supportive and went the extra mile when we went out of state on a pre-planned vacation that happened to coincide with negotiations and getting things in order to make an offer and deposit on our new home. Throughout the whole process, Ted was a knowledgeable guide and interpreter from the showings, to the inspection, to the closing, and theres no doubt who our first call will be when were ready to move on to the next place.

ZillowVERIFIEDTed inherited more from his family than a strong business sense for real estate. It is in his DNA! Working remotely with me to sell my condo, Ted helped me navigate the complex process, keeping me apprised every step of the way. He really understands each unique neighborhood market. I trusted his expertise and admired his diligent professionalism. And I have to add, we sold above asking!

ZillowVERIFIEDTed helped with both the purchase and sell of my condo. During the purchasing process, he found me an attorney, a home inspector, as well as recommended a mortgage broker, who got me the best rate possible. Ted was very thorough in explaining the process and walking through each step. His knowledge was invaluable to me as a first time home buyer. Ted was equally helpful during the sell of my condo. I was out of state, and Ted went above and beyond to help me sell. Ted is an excellent choice as a realtor, whether you're a first time buyer or not. His knowledge of real estate is vast, and he will help you find a great place or sell your place for top dollar.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe cannot thank Ted enough for all of his help in selling our condo. Being a first time seller, he made the entire process (start to finish) go as smoothly as possible and got our place sold quickly. Extremely knowledgeable of the real estate market, insightful in terms of how best to show what youre selling and just an all-around great guy. Many times he had to talk off the ledge and did so without any hesitation. If youre looking to buy or sell in the Chicago area, Ted is your guy!

ZillowVERIFIEDTed was wonderful with helping my husband and I in finding the house we bought. He is very knowledgeable and accommodating. He was really patient with us even though we kept changing our minds. He even worked on his days off to help us find the house we want. He is always available by text and email. He made sure we were 110% happy with the house we bought. He also recommended the lawyer we used for closing. If you're looking for a home Ted is your guy to find it!

Review for Member: Ted Kuhlmann
ZillowVERIFIEDTed was extremely helpful as I was in the hunt and purchased my first home. I had absolutely no idea what the steps were or how the home buying process worked, but Ted was there to help me through every step of the way. He was easily accessible at any hour of the day by phone or email, and his response time was always quick. Ted answered all of my questions, probably 5 times over when I didn't understand something right away. He knew exactly what I was looking for and I was able to see many properties within a few days of becoming interested in them. I have recommended Ted to many of my friends, and will continue to do so. I look forward to working with Ted again in the future!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy wife and I would definetly recommend Ted to anyone looking into buying a home. He took us around the neighoorhoods that we were interested in and pointed out all the pluses and minuses with each home we looked at, as well as the neighboorhood. He made the process of looking and buying a house fun and easy.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe are very thankful for our realtor, Ted Kuhlmann, for helping us sell our place and land us in our current home that we love. Thanks to Ted our home sold quickly for a price that we were happy with. We were grateful that the selling process went so smoothly and much of it was due to Ted being knowledgeable about the market. When it came to buying a place, he was readily available and worked hard to get the home we wanted. Our current home came down to a bidding war and thanks to his perseverance, knowledge, and determination, we got the house. He was also very responsive, a good communicator, and had a good, friendly rapport with other realtors. We were very happy with Ted Kulhlmann and would definitely recommend him.

ZillowVERIFIEDWhat can I say?! After a YEAR long search, Ted helped me purchase my condo in 2008. He was fantastic and patient. I must also emphasize that Ted didnt let me settle; he made sure I was getting the best deal possible. My purchase experience went so well that I contacted him again to rent out the same property he helped me purchase. Then to top it off the unit was rented within weeks. Overall Ted is extremely knowledgeable about what's going on in the market. In addition to him being prompt in responding to ANY questions I had regardless of how much time has passed since we last corresponded, he has always been completely honest and realistic with me. My husband and I will continue to not only utilize Ted for future real estate endeavors but also refer him to our friends and family.

ZillowVERIFIEDTed helped my family sell our home this month, and he did an excellent job! He knows the neighborhood, and the business very well. He made a few suggestions for me to prepare the home prior to showing, and he took care of everything else. He would call in advance to schedule appointments, and was always willing to work with my schedule. The home sold in about a month for a price that we were very happy with. I would defiantly recommend Ted Kuhlman.

ZillowVERIFIEDTed Kuhmann sets the bar for all others to follow. Not only did he help us purchase our home, but 2 years later we came back to him to help us sell it. He is fantastic to work with, grew up in the city and knows the area, sold our home above the comps in the neighborhood and overall did the job as no one else could. I would never use another realtor again. It is great to find someone that you can have such a high level of confidence in, especially handling something so important as buying or selling a home.

Review for Member: Ted Kuhlmann
ZillowVERIFIEDI sent an inquiry to the Koenig and Strey Chicago offices letting them know of my desire to start looking for a condo. The following morning I had recieved an e-mail from Ted who began to send me listings almost immediately after I gave him the details of what I was looking for. I wanted two beds, two baths AND a parking space in either Lincoln Park, Lakeview or Lincoln Square, AND close to the Brown Line. I was incredibly particular to say the least. Ted fired out listings day after day and I put a small list together of 8 to 10 condo's every other Saturday morning. Ted would pick me up from my current location (or meet me at one of the condos) and we'd spend the majority of the morning together going in and out of places. The good thing about Ted? He's a young and vibrant guy. He knows the surrounding Chicago areas, he knows what neighborhoods are safe for family, women, children, etc. He can put himself in your shoes, how many other realtors can say that? From the beginning through the end, Ted was there to help. He was with me during my first condo visit through closing at the title company. Also to note, the guy isn't afraid to speak his mind, if the place is roughed up, or needs work, he's not going to sell you that it's an "easy fix," he'll let you know his opinion, he's not going to sell you just to sell you. Last but not least? The guy treats you like a friend, not an employee. If you want full service, Ted is your guy, he understands the business, he moves quickly, and doesn't sit on items, he's a hard worker. When I need to put my place up and move on to a bigger property... Ted is my guy.

ZillowVERIFIEDTed is a very outgoing and friendly person which goes extremely far in a business that is all "people" oriented. Lots of knowledge and expertise as a realtor! Ted was able to list our home promptly and efficiently, as well as hold open houses and generate potential buyers coming through the doors to take a look. He kept us up to date on the status of our sale and made sure we knew what was happening at each step of the way. Very easy and fun to work with!

ZillowVERIFIEDI had the pleasure of working with Ted Kuhlmann on the purchase of my first condo, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor. He is not only knowledgeable and passionate about his job, but he is also extremely personable and down to earth. He never tried to aEUR~sell me on anything that I was not interested in and never tried to sway my opinion about a property in any way. He gave me solid facts about every property he showed me as well as the neighborhoods they were in. If I had any questions that he couldnt answer right away, Ted went above and beyond to find out the answers as quickly as possible.I could not afford much and was not looking at expensive properties. However, Ted treated me with the utmost importance and urgency as he would any other client. I always felt like a valued customer. He took his time with me and showed me as many properties as I requested to see until I found the absolute perfect place. He took the time to find out what qualities in a home were important to me, and found available properties that suited my needs and were in my price range. He even pointed out important things to look for that I never would have thought about on my own. Ted made the buying process very fun and easy, and even provided me with all the resources I needed to complete the sale.Ted guided me through every step of the process, and was nothing but honest and upfront the entire time. He let me know what to expect and kept me updated on a regular basis. His age and personality combined with his knowledge and professionalism give him a real edge. I would hands down recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.

ZillowVERIFIEDTed is our hero! Although, he doesn't typically handle rentals Ted stepped up to the plate and hit a home run for us. He treated us as if we were his #1 priority even though we weren't looking for a home to purchase at the time. We were in the process of relocating from another state and had 2 days to find a place to live in a city that was almost completely unknown to us. We were stressed out, overwhelmed and even panicking a little over the relocation process because it was happening at lightning speed. I don't know what we would have done without Ted.We flew to Chicago for our 2 day house hunting trip. Ted picked us up from our hotel and took us all over Chicago. He shared tidbits of history and valuable information with us about the City. We scouted neighborhoods to figure out what was most appealing to us and looked at quite a few properties that Ted had found for us based off of our wish list. I have to be honest, our demands were high and our budget was pretty unrealistic - especially since we didn't have a good understanding of the neighborhoods and rental prices. I don't know how he did it but Ted hit it spot on. He found us a beautiful place that was right on the money! Over the course of the year, Ted has stayed in touch with us by sharing market trend reports of the housing industry specific to the neighborhood we hope to buy in. He even sends us updates about events going on in The Square or other fun happenings nearby.Ted's polite, personable, professional and extremely knowledgeable of the real estate industry and Chicago. His wonderful sense of humor also helped to make our difficult transition easier on us. Now that we have settled into our Chicago lifestyle we plan on relying on Ted to help us find our very own place to call home.Choose Ted! He will not disappoint.

ZillowVERIFIEDTed Kuhlmann was a great help to us when we first moved to the area. He grew up in Chicago, so he is very familiar with all of the different hoods and what's going on throughout the city. Compared to the other agents we talked to, his knowledge was definitely superior and his enthusiasm and friendly demeanor made him a pleasure to work with. Perhaps most importantly, Ted was very effective at zeroing in on the things that were important to us in a place and helped us find what we were looking for in a flash! We had a very small amount of time in which to find a place to live, and I can't emphasize enough just how much stress he relieved by helping us.I have recommended Ted to friends and co-workers ever since and will definitely continue to do so! Also, he has kept in contact with us on a monthly basis with personalized reports on the local housing market trends which are really useful for knowing when is a good time to buy.

ZillowVERIFIEDTed worked with us to sell our condo in the city, and buy a house in the suburbs. The sell was hard. The market was flooded with comps and developer incentives. He found ways to make us stand out and compete. In the end we sold for more what we were expecting to get. The buy was much more fun for still a lot of work. Ted did his homework and found us exactly what we were looking for in the price range we wanted to spend. We could not have been happier with using Ted as our agent. I have recommended him numerous times since.

ZillowVERIFIEDTed helped me find a condo in the Albany park area. Ted's knowledge of the real estate and foreclosure market helped me purchase this foreclosure. I have so much confidence in Ted's knowledge and experience I hired him to sell my property. If you are looking for an agent who will put your best interest above everything else then Ted is that agent.
