John Diebel

John went to great lengths to understand every nuance in my preferences, ranging from location to layout, and led a highly personalized search for me over the course of several months. During every open house, he was reliably honest and insightful about the benefits and drawbacks of each place. He has a sharp eye for what to look for, asked the right questions, and took the time to educate me on the market overall, neighborhoods, buildings and a host of other relevant insights drawing his years of experience in real estate. Best of all, John is personable and patient. It took a long time for us to find the right condo, and he never rushed us into making a decision that would be sub-optimal. Whenever we buy or sell real estate again, John will be the first (and only!) realtor we call.

John Diebel has been my agent since 2012. He was my agent when I sold my condo and bought a single family home in November of 2012. He was also my neighbor for many years. I highly recommend him. He has wonderful knowledge of the Chicago area. He was very responsive and honest in every aspect of the process. This was my first time buying and selling at the same time and he kept me very informed and calm. He has kept in constant contact since the closings in 2012....I think that is very professional. I plan on buying a lake home in 2-3 years and will be using John once again.

John helped us with the purchase of our first home. He patiently walked us through every step of the process. He offered honest feedback on properties and provided personalized recommendations. John was always on time for appointments and responded to questions in very timely manner. He went out of his way to make sure we fully understood all the details of the purchase. He was especially helpful with negotiations and helped us get the best possible detail on our new home. I highly recommend John Diebel

My wife and I have had several experiences with real estate agents over 25 years. John Diebel not only sold our old condo but also helped us find a new condo. He is a total professional, and the best real estate agent we have ever worked with.

Our experience with John as our realtor to buy a new home was excellent. He helped us purchase a house in Chicagoland area in 2017 and proved to be incredibly attentive, prepared, and helpful.What makes John really stand out is his honesty and commitment to his client. There was never a single moment that John didn't put our needs first. Home-buying can be stressful, and John helped guide us through the process and made sure we truly understood all documents and transactions (as well as more fun practicalities things to do in the area, transport practicalities, etc.) so we were making an informed decision. He also was very helpful in managing the home inspection and negotiation process, giving tips on what we ought to and ought not ask for. John is never pushy and respects his clients' thoughts and time, offering only honest feedback and advice.Overall, we would strongly recommend John to anyone looking for a hardworking and honest realtor who goes above and beyond for his clients.

John helped us in our long and frustrating journey to buy a single family home in Chicago. John came recommended by friends, after 4 failed attempts with realtors - many didn't get us, were not around for us and even lied to us. We had he worst timing - winter of 2015 was a slow awakening from the real estate slump and we were looking at a very limited inventory to choose from. John went above and beyond to get us in to see properties, worked around our schedule and even contacted houses that were no longer on the market with an offer that might make them move. Through quite a few bidding wars and inspection crisis, John was always there, making time and never afraid to face a challenge till we find the right home.We ended up buying a place we love in Roscoe village, and John was right there beside us the whole time with advice, words of encouragement and comfort throughout the process.Still, even now, He stays in touch, continues to advise us on renovation and resale decisions, and we will absolutely be trusting him again the next time we buy

I've been working with John as my realtor for 8 years now, both to buy and sell my condo in Chicago. John is professional, candid, ethical, funny, direct, and honest. I always appreciate working with him and will continue to try to work with him for the foreseeable future when I have needs in the Chicago area. I have also referred John to many friends of mine who have all been impressed and happy with his work. John's easy to communicate with, too! Highly recommended.

I would highly recommend John for your home buying, selling, or renting needs. We first contacted John when we just started thinking about buying a home. We weren't in a rush, and John was truly perfectly accommodating to our needs, letting us take our time when we wanted too, not being pushy, and yet providing almost immediate service if we contacted him regarding a home we were potentially interested in. He was patient, responsive, and helpful, and we relied a lot on his expertise during our long process. We ultimately found a perfect home and asked John to help us rent out our condo, which he got done in under a week. Thank you John!

John is an excellent realtor that knows the city of Chicago extremely well. He knew what we wanted before we did, but was patient with us and helped us explore options despite the fact he knew they weren't for us. Zero pressure, great demeanor, very responsive, will recommend no one else going forward.

John was wonderfully knowledgeable in handling the sell of our home and provided insights when purchasing out next home. I can not recommend John enough as someone who will make sure your purchase or sale of home is as seamless as possible.
