I came to the US 4 years ago from Germany. It had always been my biggest dream to live in Chicago and my company offered me a position in the Chicago market! So I sold everything and moved here with 2 suitcases in February of 2011. I bought my first condo in February of 2014 and was the proudest first home owner in the world. Then I came across a book about investing in real estate. ..I had never in my life even thought about this option, but it felt like a great opportunity to invest in my future. This is how I met Karen Schwartz. She had long years of experience as a realtor and had just started her own business. From the first conversation on I felt that she knew the business extremely well. I had told her that I just wanted to start looking what is out there and could not make a promise that I would actually go ahead and buy an investment property. I really liked that she never felt like a sales person, but was genuinely interested to cater to what I was looking for. I'm so impressed and happy with the way she works: all questions are answered immediately, she is extremely on top of every bit of information I asked for from the seller. At some point I joked that I got replies to my emails before I had lifted my finger from the "send" button. She showed me a couple of places and we found a great unit really fast. Even after my offer was accepted by the seller, Karen's support or pace of work didn't slow down. Parking space? Home warranty? Attorney? Home inspector? I didn't do a thing! All was taken care of in what felt like minutes. And the best communication during the process, which is very important to me as a German. Now Karen is working on getting my place rented out and I am convinced she is going to find the best tenant. I can not stretch enough, how much I appreciate Karen's professional, fast, exact and personable way of working. I have recommended her to everyone looking to buy, sell or rent, that I have run into. Even my boss! If you are looking for a phenomenal realtor... go for Karen and LMKS Group!
