I have frequently been required to relocate for work. Anita, you were, without question, the most outstanding realtor I have worked with in the eight major moves I have made in my career. Coming from the East Coast, my wife and I were so grateful that you took the time to show us properties whenever we were in Chicago during the 15 months it took to sell our old home. You never lost interest in us, and the education about Chicago neighborhoods we got from you made it so much quicker and easier to make a quick purchase once we did sell our home and make the move.Moving from a house to a condo was a big change for us, and we appreciated that you always seemed to know the financial situation of the condo associations and general ambience of each building and neighborhood we looked at. You not only listened to what we wanted and needed in a condo and a location, you helped us see things to add to that list that we would have never thought of, that only a local could have known. You took the angst out of our search and gave us the tools and guidance we needed to find the perfect place for us. Finally, the single most impressive thing was how you fought for us in the negotiations. You got us our place for LESS than we were willing to settle for and got finished ceilings thrown in (in addition to parking) when we were sure that would never happen! Many realtors would have been satisfied to settle for the amount we indicated that we would pay. What makes you special is that you went beyond that and fought to get us an even better deal that we dreamed was possible. The truth is, I just don't know anyone else like you. You are not just the best realtor I know, but a great person as well. We really enjoyed every minute of working with you, and felt at the end as though we'd made a new friend.Thank you from the bottoms of our hearts for all that you did for us. I would be happy to be a customer reference for you should you ever want one. And we would be honored to call you a friend.Michael Bauer, South Loop
