Realty of Chicago

"Christina Ghanayem was so nice and helpful! She was able to find us an apartment quickly, and was so kind to meet our living needs. Happily moving in tomorrow!"

"My partner and I worked with Christina Ghanayem and she was such a GEM. From the first meeting until the lease signing was only a two and a half week process!! Christina was really receptive to our feedback on the first round of searches and quickly found us the right place to call our new home (for rent). :) I really appreciated that she was ALWAYS available! We sometimes had to hash some details out about showings and applications in the evenings and she was always so helpful and responsive. Absolutely a queer and trans friendly company, they are VERY helpful with the application process on that side of things, if you know you know. "

"SAVE YOUR TIME. DO NOT buy, rent or even sell with Realty of Chicago. To be honest leaving 1 star is being really nice. The most unprofessional, incompetent people I’ve ever encountered. The lack of communication is absurd. They do not serve the best interest of their clients. They don’t deal with other realtors that are not Realty of Chicago. They will dodge your offers, won’t answer your calls, and even won’t even let you look at a house if you have a realtor that is not Realty of Chicago. There was many times when I would want to see a house from Realty of Chicago and they’ve made it almost impossible for my realtor to make an appointment. Id have to pretend like I didn’t have a realtor yet to be able to to see it. When it was time to make an offer and frankly most of the time I had the better offer. They would dodge calls, go silent for days without updates. They would lie to your face and say they have another offer on the table to get you counteroffer more money, but they really didn’t. After talking to one of the sellers from a house I wanted to buy. I proved that in fact I had the better offer, and he was never presented that. They ended up going with an offer from another agent from Realty of Chicago. SURPRISE. These folks should really be audited. They lack code of ethics which is illegal. They really deceive the people who they serve and take advantage of their own community. They try to make up for it by giving away free turkeys and doing community events but really they’re stealing your money. It’s really sad. I don’t write reviews but if you see this you steer away from buying, selling or renting with this realty company."

"I'm more than thrilled that I had the pleasure of working with Martin from realty of Chicago. Thanks to him I have bought my dream apartment near west loop in Chicago and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish. Throughout the entire process, consistently displayed a genuine commitment. Martin and all his team including the CEO Eddie Garcia went above and beyond to ensure that I had a smooth and stress-free experience, coordinating with other parties involved, attorneys, appraisal, bank loaner and keeping me updated every step of the way. Their professionalism and integrity were truly remarkable. Being a real estate agent is not easy because (us) customers are very eager and we want everything fast but they know how to handle the situation and they always respond to you with positive answers and if a problem approaches they will help you the best way. Thank you, Martin, Eddie, Claudia, Salvador and Andrew for your exceptional service and your patience. I highly recommend realty of Chicago. If I had the power to give more than five stars I would do it."
