DeMarcus did an amazing job. I started my house search at square one. I've been living in Chicago for several years, but as a native Californian I'm less knowledgeable about Chicago. DeMarcus provided comprehensive, grounded advice on Chicago's neighborhoods and property market. We spent several weeks looking at listings to establish a baseline. As I gained a better understanding of the local market and a clearer picture of my ideal home, DeMarcus helped me zero in on a good fit. He considered me as an individual - his sense of what I wanted was much more detailed and personal than "x bedrooms, y bathrooms, z style." The market is pretty intense right now, but my house search proceeded on a timeline that worked for me. I never felt like I was being pressured to choose a property based on a price point or timeline or some trendy value-add. Instead, DeMarcus helped me consider all of the factors in a big life milestone and financial commitment. When we found a listing I was excited about, he advocated for me throughout the process to ensure that my interests were represented and that I was prepared for each step from offer through closing. He also referred me to an excellent team: his inspector, real estate attorney, insurance agent, and mortgage lender have all been extremely helpful, professional, and responsive. Like DeMarcus, they take a customized approach to their clients - pragmatic, informative, and conscientious. I wound up with a home I genuinely love. I would recommend DeMarcus to anyone, and have already recommended him to a couple of friends.
