I highly recommend the brokers at Team Newman. Specifically, Morgan Meeker was very helpful with finding an apartment for myself and my partner to rent. The place was beautiful, it met all our criteria, and he found it for us within 2 weeks. We scheduled a day to visit 3 places after a couple of weeks of talking. This place was one of those three and we signed that day. We didn’t expect to find something on our first (and only) day of viewings, but it Morgan made it easy. I couldn’t be happier with the service we got with while working with this brokerage. Scott Newman runs a great team and gives a personal touch that I have not experienced with brokers or realtors in the past. He genuinely cared and put his best person on the job to help us out. I know they do service for people who are looking to buy homes, as well as people like myself looking to rent a place in the city. If you want to find the perfect place quickly, go to Team Newman! Edit to add: Scott himself checks up on us yearly to ensure we are happy with our place and to see if we need anything. Very attentive, caring, and helpful!

Scott and his team were amazing and diligent.. Sourcing good buyers and helping me hold firm on certain points of negotiations when it was necessary. Would highly recommend his team if you need impartial feedback but a very partial partner in your corner.

You will be blown-away! Outstanding in every way, Scott and his magnificent team were committed to representing my interests in the Oak Park market. This is by far the best team in Oak Park. What impressed me was the strong leadership, fully committed, hard working, smart, focused vibe of Team Newman. For example, Scott keeps an obsessively accurate eye on the market. He will know your area and the current market rates. Team Newman will know how to market to the right buyers for a quick sale at the best price. Trust me on this important distinction because many others will not really be able to achieve this goal. I felt they were my advocates. They are professional and go beyond the requirements to prove their commitment to you. I felt that I had the smartest team out there and that they were on a mission to fulfill my objectives. Michelle and Morgan made me feel confident in their ability to make the right choices and attack the market quickly for the most effective results. For example, Michelle and Morgan gave suggestions for staging directions and property improvements that aided in attracting buyers and selling at top dollar. They also have the ability to give you strategies to aid in finding the right type of property in the right location and making an attractive offer that will lead to acceptance. Morgan's vibe was perfect for the Oak Park market. This is a smart working team that makes hard choices easy and stress free. This is a full-time career for them. Team Newman focused one-hundred percent on my transaction going beyond normal business hours. They led me through the transaction with ease and followed up with me after the deal closed.

Scott and his team were fantastic from start to finish. Selling your home is often the largest financial transaction someone goes through, but picking a broker is so much more than going with the person who will list it for the highest number. Scott and his team started working with me early, not only giving me an idea of the selling price, but the work I could do to maximize the deal - and laying out their strategy to get me a great deal and the property sold. From the little things like painting a wall or two, through staging, finishing with advice on how to leverage multiple offers to get top dollar. Scott and his team are truly full service and they will work hard to get you the best price and terms.

I cannot speak more highly of Scott and his team. I no longer live in the Chicagoland area and was in need of remotely selling my condo after my tenants had vacated. Scott and his team were responsive and understood that my priority was selling quickly with as little disruption to the tenants as possible. Scott priced the unit such that we received multiple, above ask offers within 24 hours of hosting a one-hour open house in the space. His ability to generate buzz for the property meant real savings - no staging, no extra month mortgage payment and a higher selling price than I was quoted by other agents I had interviewed. Most importantly, his relationships with our ultimate buyer's lenders ensured a quick close with almost no contingencies. All in, from the time of signing the listing agreement to a closed transaction was three weeks. I had had a previously not pleasant experience attempting to sell this condo and, this time around, I barely had to time to worry about a thing. Scott, Michelle and Morgan kept me updated every step of the way, put me in contact with very effective legal representatives and ensured any request was handled professionally and quickly. I could not recommend them more.
