Ben Kastein

Ben was an amazing person to work with. He has a great understanding of the home buying process and he put together a team of lenders and attorneys that he works with regularly to help guide us at every step. I would recommend Ben and his team to everyone and anyone.

Ben was fantastic from the very first day we spoke with him. He patiently showed us a lot of properties, understood what we really wanted and was patient enough though the whole process of a short sale. He is so knowledgeable and made both my wife and I feel very comfortable . His advise, guidance and expertise are invaluable. We will always contact him for our next buy or sell.

I picked Ben from a website of realtors. I knew none of them and chose him because of his smiling picture and years of experience. It was the best choice I could have made!!! Ben is very knowledgeable. I am moving from out of state and he was always right there to answer questions. We looked at over 40 houses. He helped us see what might work and what wouldn't based on our needs. Even after the closing he is still helping me. I cannot say enough great things about BEN!! Choosing Ben made our experience so enjoyable....I challenge anyone to find a better realtor

My wife and I are first-time home buyers. When we began our search, we started using websites like Zillow. Being first-time buyers, the process was a bit anxious for us. Then, we were connected with Ben and the home search became a lot more enjoyable. Ben is extremely personable, knowledgeable, and a buyer-first realtor. He offered honest feedback and was extremely responsive throughout the entire process. I highly recommend that anyone work with Ben during their home buying experience

We would recommend Ben for anyone looking for a smooth purchase! Buying a house was so easy and Ben and his team were extremely informative and helpful. Ben has a great understanding of the market and the areas in the western suburbs. He showed us houses that were what we wanted in our price range. He was always professional, kind and was easy to talk to. Ben was also incredibly responsive and available for questions -- no matter how small. Ben and his Advantage Realty team are the best around. We recommend him without reservation and we will be using him for our future property needs.

Ben and his team at Advantage Realty were extremely helpful during the home-buying process. As first time buyers, we didn't know what to expect. Ben went above and beyond to help us navigate buying our first home. He is extremely knowledgable about the market, as well as the value of long-term improvements and resale. In fact, our home inspector even called me to say how impressed he was with Ben's thoroughness and expertise. We were truly impressed with Ben every step of the way, and would recommend him to anyone looking to purchase.

Professional, dependable and a pleasure to work with!!! Helped me purchase and sell the same property, look forward to working with him again in the future!!!

Ben helped us purchase a foreclosure from a bank that was nearly impossible to work with. He was very diligent about contacting the bank and their brokerage company on a regular basis to ensure everything continued to move forward. He fought hard for us and we ended up with a beautiful home for a great price. Ben is extremely knowledgeable and so easy to work with. He really took a lot of stress out of an extremely difficult situation. I cannot say enough about how pleased I was with his effort and attention every step of the way on the purchase of our first home.

Our experience with Ben was great! We would work with him again in a heartbeat and highly recommend him to all! He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, a great communicator, and made the process of selling our townhouse seamless and stress free!

I was very impressed by his willingness to help no matter what the problem. Ben had solutions and ideas about how to solve each problem that I had while in the process of buying my new home. Excellent job, Ben!

Ben is better than anyone can expect. In fact, before Ben we had a previous realtor that seemed to have no idea what they were doing. It was so unpleasant and stressful. Ben was then recommended to us and from the very first house we saw it was like a breath of fresh air. His knowledge of any property is outstanding. He can easily guide you on any work or potential problems you would have to deal with in the future. He knows a house from the inside out and is even willing to jump into deep dark crawl spaces to check things out. He makes you feel like you are his only client and gives you his complete attention. He is organized and efficient. He answers any and all questions, is easily reachable, and is a pleasure to work with. He is kind and he cares. We really can't sing his praises enough. No matter where life takes us with future housing, we will be Ben's clients for life.

Ben is very knowledgeable and was very responsive to my inquiries. I would highly recommend him. My husband and I intend to use Ben when we sell another property in the next few years.

Ben was very knowledgeable, professional and patient with the many questions I have had through this process. Ben knew the inside and outside of homes and was able to make recommendations and estimate about how much a project would cost. Even after the deal was done Ben had stopped by to help me locate my furnace filter.

Ben stepped in after another realtor had failed. He was very professional and had great intuition with regard to how the market was acting. We sold our home within 3 weeks after the other realtor had wasted 6 months. I would highly recommend Ben and his office.

Ben was patient, knowledgable and never hesitated to explain to me the processes to sell my house of 40 years by myself. His goal was to help me sell my house, not his commission, so I could move on.

Ben is an excellent agent and strong advocate for the buyer. He is very supportive in helping to make positive decisions before, during, and after the purchase! We used Ben in buying our first home and appreciated his professionalism and honest through the process. I would recommend Ben to anyone who asks for a good agent!

Ben is responsive, proactive and easy to work with. He was open to our suggestions while keeping us on task through this experience. If you are looking for someone who has your best interest in mind and really hustles, Ben is your agent!

Ben is the best! This was our first house! Had such a great experience having him as my realtor, his team made it possible to help us get our house! Ben wants the best for the client, he actually cares about helping people. He doesn't do this just to make a sale! If your looking to purchase a home give him a chance you won't regret it!

Ben was an excellent realtor who worked vigilantly to get my house closed!! He advised me when I requested his view, and was always available or would promptly return my calls! He contested the appraisers comparisons by providing detailed information about those houses. He kept in contact with my lawyer and the buyers so that I would stay informed of progress toward the closing. I recommend him!

Ben is an amazingly talented realtor and business man. He has helped me purchase two homes now and has been a vital resource during all phases of buying. He will reach out to anyone he needs to, pick up the phone need be to motivate others during the challenging process of home buying! You want him in your corner when it's time to buy! His vast knowledge of homes is impressive! Ben is a true professional and vital resource! I give him my full endorsement!

Ben was a very knowledgeable and honest agent to work with. He helped sell my condo in winter, over the holidays in less than 10 days. I will continue to pass along his name to others who are looking for a real estate agent.
