ZillowVERIFIEDWalt & his partner Bridget are truly a joy to work with. The presentation and sale of our home was expertly managed and a purchase on the backside as well. We have bought and sold many homes but this was an exceptional experience with great results! Highly recommend The Ville Team!

ZillowVERIFIED Walt has helped us buy and sell a few houses. He is a tireless professional who only has his clients best interest at heart, not his. I would highly recommend Walt and his team to anyone. His knowledge and expertise are second to none. I also consider him a friend.

ZillowVERIFIED Walt did an amazing job in the sale of our house. We would HIGHLY recommend him and his team to anyone looking to buy/sell. Their marketing/photography took our house to another level. Not only that but Walt has that personal touch with his clients and was there every step of the way to help in our relocation process. We had multiple offers in which he guided us through and explained everything in detail and made sure our needs were met and house sold in the timeframe we wanted. It did not matter what time of the day we reached out or if he was on vacation we knew that we would hear back from Walt.

ZillowVERIFIED We have worked with Walt previously on the sale of our home in Naperville seven years ago, the purchase of this home three years ago and its recent sale. Walt is very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. He understands how to most effectively market your home in all of the important ways, including establishing the right price. He also has a good sense for how best to prepare your home for sale. He knows how to get the maximum exposure to your property in the least time possible. Walt has a keen sense for the state of the market and no one has a deeper knowledge about the Naperville market in particular. He communicates important information on a timely basis and has helped us with many aspects of the entire process on a aEURoehands onaEUR? basis which has been instrumental, since we have recently worked with him remotely, as well as in person, previously. Our son has worked with Walt on several transactions, too, for all of the reasons mentioned above. We strongly and enthusiastically recommend Walt to anyone interested in either selling or buying real estate in Naperville and the surrounding suburbs. He is always there for you!

ZillowVERIFIED Mr. Burrell did an outstanding job. He was extremely proactive in his approach to selling my home. We had very unique circumstances and Walt was able to find the pertect buyer for the price we were asking. Could not have found a better realtor.

ZillowVERIFIED Walt did a great job of selling our house, and we wound up with ten offers above the listing price. Walt also handled all of the showings himself without delegating the task to his coworkers. Walt's marketing was amazing as he hired a professional photographer to shoot the house and also take videos including aerial drone footage. The resulting video was extremely professional and it showed our house in the best possible light. We would certainly recommend Walt as a listing agent.

ZillowVERIFIED We worked with Walt on both the sale of our home and the purchase of a new home. He did an incredible job from the marketing of our home to guiding through our closings. We actually bought and sold in one weekend and he was instrumental in making it all happen smoothly and without any issues. Walt is a true professional and worked hard to make the entire process easy for us!

ZillowVERIFIED Walt was professional and prepared from the beginning. He , and his team, have a great handle on market timing, his connection to the community and respect of the developers. Always communicating at the right times while keeping me in the loop on all matters that I needed to attend to. Even after closing he was willing to answer questions. Would HIGHLY recommend Walt and the Ville!

Review for Member: Walter Burrell
ZillowVERIFIED Walt was amazing! Their marketing is so high-end I wrongfully assumed they only dealt in high-end houses, and I had a lower-end older house on a busy street on which marketed houses tend to stall forever. I thought I would get low-balled (especially after speaking with a aEURoecash for your houseaEUR? rep) and only after a protracted period. Walt immediately put me at ease any time I spoke with him. He was incredibly responsive on everything and he had the perfect suggestions to make my house more marketable. He was great about discussing the reasonable fixtures updates I should consider, but he also discouraged me from some more expensive others, and as he is an experienced professional he was correct on both sides. His marketing was amazing for any priced house, but especially on my lower-priced one. I couldnt believe how much I was getting for how little $ he was going to get. We listed on a Thursday and we accepted a Saturday offer on that Sunday in a bidding war above asking price. No we did not list it too low as a higher listing would have been well above Zillow as well as above Walts extremely thorough comparative analysis which looked like it came from NASA, and would have priced us out of much interest and precluded the high and competing interests. I received more than I hoped, and more importantly, Walt kept me positive, optimistic, and comfortable during a typically stressful life event. Oh, and the fees were actually less than I expected, especially for the amount and quality of marketing I received. Thanks Walt!

Review for Member: Walter Burrell
ZillowVERIFIED Walt worked very hard marketing our Naperville home resulting in a successful sale. He has one of the best photographer/videographers that I have seen in the real estate business which is very important since the online images and video are what most people use to decide which homes they want to visit. He spent an entire day with the photographer capturing images and videos of our home. Our home was on the high end of homes in our area so it was a challenge to sell and took 8 months to get to a sale. Over the entire time Walt stayed engaged, responsive and kept up the marketing effort. Either Walt or his partner went to the house before every showing to make sure the house was ready for viewing and stayed for the showing to answer questions and close up the home after. During negotiations he did an excellent job of addressing the buyers concerns and getting them to a yes. Walt is the best and most professional of the 18 agents I have worked with in my experience of selling and buying 9 homes over the years. I highly recommend Walt and the Ville realty if you are selling your home or need an experienced realtor to help you find your dream home.

Review for Member: Walter Burrell
ZillowVERIFIED I was a first time home buyer with certain criteria in mind when looking at properties to buy. Walt was very informative, knowledgeable, and responsive. He would take his time explaining to me what he liked what he didn't like when doing the walk through with me, what I should look for or be concerned about. This helped me a lot in making my decision as I do not have much experience in what to look for when purchasing a home. I want to thank Walt for everything he helped me with.

ZillowVERIFIED Walt demonstrated a high degree of personal engagement, professionalism and genuine interest in us and marketing our home from the very beginning of our business relationship with him. He possesses extraordinary interpersonal skills and a commitment to represent your interests like no other real estate broker/agent in our vast, fifteen home purchases and sales, experience. The quality of the photos, virtual tour and all marketing materials were the best and most professionally done by significant measure. He took the time to develop a working knowledge of our home and all if its features and benefits as if it was his own home. He was present at our showings and ensured the home was ready to be seen every time, as well as ready for our return when it was over. Walt is very familiar with the builders and residential construction in general. He has a deep knowledge of the Naperville market and surrounding areas. Walt was very astute regarding the pricing of our home relative to competing properties and the current market conditions. He was insightful with respect to negotiations and is clearly respected by his peers. He also maintains solid working relationships with all relevant service providers and provided excellent referrals throughout the marketing process. We would highly recommend Walt to anyone in the market to purchase or sell a home as he is the best realtor/advocate we have ever retained and worked with to do the same for us.

ZillowVERIFIED Walt's vast knowledge of overall real estate processes and procedures was key in helping us acquire our new property. His out of the box thinking helped us to realize a much better option than we would have considered before. Walt would truly be an asset to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the western suburbs.

ZillowVERIFIED Walt is a hard working realtor who I will be using again when my wife and I are ready to buy. Walt made time to meet with us when our availability was limited and kept us updated on everything the entire time. I would highly recommend Walt to anyone looking to rent or buy a home.

ZillowVERIFIED If you are thinking about selling or buying a house you need to contact Walt Burrell. He is an absolute professional who has the ability to navigate through any bump along the way. My wife and I were selling a condo, and buying a home. It turned out to be a roller coaster of complex little issues and Walt remained calm and got us through each problem. He is confident, aggressive for his clients, and a fantastic negotiator. Walt helped us stage our condo and we had offers in the first days of it being on the market. His aggressive marketing campaigns and open house gave us the exposure we needed to sell quickly and at the price we wanted. On the house we wanted, our offer was declined a few times but Walt never gave up until they accepted and we were in contract. Walts attention to detail allowed us to see potential problems before hand and remedy them so they did not delay the closing process. The house we purchased is on a pond, and in a flood plain. Walt made sure to inform us of the potential delays in FEMA flood insurance and we were able to take the steps that saved us weeks of delays! Walts actions allowed us to sell our condo, and buy our house on April 25th, two weeks ahead of the original closing date! If youre looking for a smooth buying or selling process, then look no further than Walt Burrell!

ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I worked with Walt while we were selling our house to downsize in retirement. He offered several excellent suggestions, not only to improve the value of our home and maximize our profit, but suggestions to make the house more aesthetically pleasing to a buyer. When it was time to find a new home, he had many suggestions that fit our budget, needs and wishes. Walt also really knows details about the Western Suburban communities to which we wanted to move. We are now very happy with our home in the Carillons at Stonegate.

ZillowVERIFIED I worked with Walt on the purchase of my new home and he is also listing my existing home. Walt is completely professional, effective and fun to work with. He was proactive and organized when we were conducting the search for our new home and we have successfully completed that process. After the purchase of the new house, Walt continues to be involved to help me with contacts and ideas around our remodel. We are early into the process of listing our existing home. Walt has engaged all the proper experts and is driving some good proactive marketing. I am very happy we chose to work with Walt and would highly recommend him to others in need of a broker.
