Tell us about your experience with
Carl Cho
"We would refer Carl to friends and family time and time again. His knowledge, availability, patience, and willingness to be by our side throughout our whole buying experience made our home purchase enjoyable and a lot less stressful than we thought it would be. Carl listened to our needs, found us the perfect house, and then made the purchase happen. I cannot say enough about how great he was."
- Jenn Such"I was lucky enough to have stumbled upon Carl Cho in my first time hunting for a home. We hit the ground running in a very active market segment, and Carl's knowledge and efficiency was the determining factor in me finding a great first home. The entire process was painless and I always knew what was happening as Carl and his team did such a great job keeping me in the loop and offering advice when needed. Would certainley seek out his help if I'm ever to sell or buy again!"
- Dylan Braam"This our 4th time working with Carl, and every experience has been extremely positive. I would strongly recommend Carl to friends and family. Always nice to have an honest hard working individual in your corner working for you."
- Jeris Grandlienard"Carl Cho is the best real estate agent with whom I have worked. His idea facilitated the sale of our older / vintage home. He was always available. He provided good research that helped understand selling price. He provided good input during the negotiation of the sale. Very friendly and empathetic to the business transaction and the stressful parts of the process that we as the seller experienced. The house we sold was in Elmhurst and although this was not where Carl sells the majority of his homes, he still did as well or better than any local agent would have done."
- Dan Sullivan"We felt totally at ease throughout our journey buying our house knowing that Carl Cho knew how to take care of everything. We felt like we had a friend walking us through the process. Our situation was a little out of the ordinary and Carl didn't miss beat. He gave us honest and timely feedback as well as other options to consider. His knowledge of the area was key since we are from out of town. His recommendations to us for other people to help us through the closing process and after were also really helpful. I would give Carl Cho Excellent PLUS! if I could. He exceeded our expectations."
- Schell Alexander"We started our home search by reaching out to Carl via a house advert in Zillow and at that point could not have predicted how much impact he would have on our search for a home. As expatriates recently relocated to the states, buying a home quickly became daunting. Carl through his knowledge of great areas for young families, good schools, nice neighbourhoods, sustained home value, was able to guide our thoughts and focus our search on what we identified as most important in the search. His ability to breakdown confusing terminology and country specific issues has been invaluable. Best quality with working with him is his patience and willingness to take a call anytime of the day. For that, we are infinitely grateful. I Would recommend his services to anyone looking to buy a home."
- Iffy Edwards"I chose Carl because he articulated a lead generation plan no one else mentioned (4 other agents, including 2 who had house on market for months previous uear). His approach is very savvy and targets specifically. He delivered on that in a great way. His team, especially Stacey, were respectful of my living in home while on the market and did not ask for unnecessary or trendy staging. References I spoke with were all positive about his creativity, and I am happy to join their ranks."
- Denise Blank"Carl is so easy to work with. He is friendly and not at all pushy. When an issue would arise he would think about solutions to fix the problem before letting us know so that we were not left to figure it out on our own. This made made the whole selling process run smoothly. I would definitely recommend him for your buying or selling needs!"
- Rena George"Carl came highly recommended to us by a friend and we totally understand why. Carl is passionate about what he does but never pushy and very patient. He answered all our questions and did a great job of finding the answers when he didn't know them. We love that he's web savvy (never had to fax anything to him!) but will also pick up the phone to talk. Carl helped us find a home that met our short term and long term financial goals and helped us to break down the numbers so we could focus on our goals. He also works with a great team that was completely clutch in helping us to get into our new home as quickly as possible without a hitch. I highly recommend him!"
- Eugenia Kang"Carl has an amazing work ethic coupled with stellar customer service skills. I found Carl through a Google search as I required someone with not only real estate savvy, but awareness and sensitivity to the cultural norms of my parents whose home required a fairly quick sale. I am from Chicago, but presently live on the West Coast, which made it challenging to organize the preparation of the home prior to listing. That's where Carl stepped in and respectfully listened to my parents' needs and concerns. He provided them with a professional Stager and Photographer at a very reasonable rate. My folks went under contract within a month after listing their home and Closed shortly thereafter. Carl was also helpful with references for painters and heavy lifting day laborers. My parents are very grateful to Carl who has the patience of Job."
- Rozella Cruz"We found Carl by chance through a home app. He was showing a house we were looking at in the area and contacted him. He was very professional and well spoken. He was kind and genuinely interested in answering all questions we had concerning the process. After a visit of the home we all decided it wasn't for us but we knew we wanted Carl to be our guy during this journey. One month later, we are in our new home and Carl played a huge part in making us comfortable throughout the process. He is very caring, diligent, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and efficient through the entire process. I would recommend him to everyone I know from a buyers perspective and I can only assume his ethics and business mind would transfer over to the sellers selective if home purchases. Two thumbs of for this guy. Carl's great!"
- Kyle Ekhoff"Carl came to our first meeting prepared with close comps and helpful insight on the market. We felt that he was knowledgeable and thorough. During our listing, Carl was accessible and helpful. His team did a great job and we always felt like a priority. During the negotiations, Carl went above and beyond to ensure we had all the proper tools to counter. We absolutely recommend Carl & his team for everyone."
- Jamie Fielder"Carl was an absolute joy to work with. So helpful and worked with us through the whole process. I am really happy we had his help in getting this home for us. I will definitely be keeping his name around in case anything comes up in the future or need to give a friend a recommendation. This was our first time buying a home and we got lucky to have such a great realtor by our side."
- Meg Hodson"Carl is the absolute top in his field. He is very intelligent, reliable and friendly, but best of all he can a wise about the process, and about people. He knows when to say somethIng, when to press and when to back off. He instinctively knows how to get the best deal for his client, and more about importantly, what that deal looks like. I can't recommend Carl highly enough."
- Jeff Atwood"This is my first home purchase and Carl Cho has helped me understand the home buying process during our first visit. He was prompt in scheduling appointments when I requested and was very patient when I didnt like some of them. He has exceeded my expectations in getting a good rate on a house and that tells buyer is his main priority. I believe my home buying process went very smooth because of his good network of attorney and lenders who worked together to get this done as smoothly as possible. I strongly recommend him and his team!"
- Sekhar Pullabhatia"Carl is an amazing realtor. He is friendly, knowledgeable, patient, trustworthy, and extremely easy to work with. I've always been told that the home buying process is horrible. This was not my experience at all. Carl made the process extremely easy, and I had fun doing it. He did a great job educating me through the entire process From the first home viewing to closing day, I truly felt like Carl was supporting me every step of the way. I would highly recommend Carl to my closest friends and family. Thank you so much Carl!"
- Josh Lee"HIGHLY RECOMMEND CARL AND HIS TEAM! We moved our whole family cross country prior to the listing of our home so our sale was done remotely. He quarterbacked the transaction to the finish line and the whole process went very smoothly and quickly. With all that we had on our plate with the move, this was the least stressful. He checked in multiple times throughout the process, was super communicative and took care of several things for us while were gone. He helped price the home to perfection because our home attracted multiple bids, went under contract within a few days and sold for 5% over list price! Results speak for themselves. Carl is super personable, trustworthy and extremely easy to work with."
- David Ro"We hired Carl based on a very enthusiastic referral from a friend. After our breezy sale - two days on the market, two competitive offers (one OVER ASKING), we understood the reason for this friend's enthusiasm. We were living out of the country at the time of the sale, so everything happened remotely. One of the reasons we picked Carl was our need for reliable communication and his responsiveness to email and phone. Additionally, we wanted to make sure that the house was accurately priced and would be agressively marketed. Though an agent working primarily in our Chicago suburb had priced our home 60K below Carl's price, it seemed to us that Carl had the most accurate comps. From the quick sale we had, it's obvious that his market analysis proved correct! I would highly recommend Carl and his team who made the process of selling our home nearly effortless--from coordinating the staging to reminding us of everything we needed for closing."
- Jen Michel"Carl Cho and his team were so kind and helpful. We are first time homebuyers and he really took the time to help us decide what our priorities are for real estate and explaining the Home buying process to us step by step. They were easy to get a hold of and answered our questions very quickly as we went along. Carl and his team are very knowledgeable about the western suburbs and its communities. We couldnt have asked for a better experience!"
- Natalie Ho"It was a great pleasure working with Carl and getting to know him personally. Carl was an absolute professional. He demonstrated an excellence in his knowledge of the market and his counsel always seemed to be right on point. He was warm, personable and very relational, while also respecting our wishes and never pressuring us to make decisions that we weren't completely comfortable with. He struck the perfect balance between being proactive and giving us "space." Also, Carl went out of his way to help us in so many different ways as we live 800 miles away and couldn't do things to the home that most sellers are able to do themselves if they are "on site." Carl exceeded our expectations and has set the bar extremely high for the real estate profession. He worked hard, never gave up, regularly introduced creative solutions throughout the process, and did it all with a wonderful spirit. I STRONGLY recommend him to anyone needing a realtor and would say that he's got to be one of the very best in the business."
- Cullen Rodgers-Gates"This is our second time working with Carl on our rental property. Previously, Carl had helped us screen for a qualified renter, and now he just helped sell the property. We're very thankful for Carl's guidance and help throughout the entire process of staging, showing, and negotiating the sale of the property. Prior to putting it on the market, Carl walked through the house with us and helped us to prioritize the needed improvements and updates that would help sell the home. Within three days on the market, we received multiple offers above our expectations! From there, Carl's attentiveness to the negotiations and paper work streamlined the process: from accepting the offer to the final closing. We would highly recommend Carl Cho for your real estate needs."
- Edgie Quetua"Carl and his team helped us to sell our home in 4 days, which was amazing, but he worked with us for almost nine months to prepare our house before putting in on the market. Carl and his stager, Brynne, helped us make decisions about what to update in our house, and Carl helped us find contractors to do the work. Everyone on the team was professional and attentive to our needs. The main reason we chose to work with Carl was his emphasis on the relationship he wants to build with his clients rather than making a sale for himself, and that is exactly what he did - he got to know us and our needs and supported us through the whole process with patience and responsiveness. We never felt pressured or rushed to put our house on the market before we were ready. It always felt like we were his top priority!"
