Review of Peter Xantheas and MG Group

From the beginning Peter has made the experience of selling our home easy. He explained the process and made sure my family was informed of every showing. He was especially patient with my mother and made sure she understood the whole process. The whole MG Group was great. Please use Peter and his group for your selling or buying needs.

Sold West Loop Condo

Mario and his team did a fantastic job taking pictures of my unit and their market strategy, along with having heavy traffic with showings throughout the entire listing. His team brings a tremendous amount of area and market knowledge. He not only brings new buyers, but also has a pool of people that are always looking for an investment to buy. With markets like today, you need someone like Mario to get top dollar for your place! I high recommend him and his team as they take control of the process from start to finish and it allows you to feel relaxed and not deal with all the stress. FIVE STARS ACROSS THE BOARD!

Amazing, professional, tenacious.

My experience with Thanh is nothing short of amazing. His proactive communication, work ethic and support throughout the entire process was invaluable. He went above and beyond to help me find the perfect home for me, and when we found it, he used his expertise, knowledge and professionalism to work with the sellers to get me the best possible outcome. I would recommend Thanh without reservation to everyone; he is truly amazing.

The MG Group are true experts and professionals

We originally contacted Mario because friends of ours had used him and the MG Group to buy/sell and had also noticed his signs around our Albany Park neighborhood. We also had been working with another agent in our search for a new home in the North Shore and it wasn’t working for a variety of reasons. When we first spoke with Mario he assured us that the MG Group would be able to help us sell our home in the city and buy a new home in the suburbs. Although skeptical at first, we could not have been happier with the result. Lehigh of the MG Group was tenacious, thorough and patient throughout the process and guided us to a home we couldn’t be happier with. On the list side, Mario gave us great advice on how to prepare our home for sale, where to price it and also had contractors at his disposal to enact the prep plan. We sold our home in just a few days with multiple offers for above our list price and we didn’t waste money or time doing unnecessary things to prepare it for sale. Mario assured us the market was brisk enough and our home was unique enough that we would be able to sell without renovating the home we had lived in and lovingly cared for for 30+ years. Once engaged, we felt comfortable from the very beginning of the process with Mario, Lehigh and the entire MG Group office staff which worked tirelessly (and seemingly around the clock) to see our deals get to the closing table without a hitch. We have sung their praises to our friends, family & coworkers, and we would urge anyone who wants to buy and/or sell in the city of the suburbs to contact Mario and the MG Group – they are true experts and professionals.

Deep knowledge of both owner-occupied and investment property markets

We have worked with Cyrus Seraj at MG Group on both a purchase (single-family home) and sale (rental property) and both experiences have been phenomenal. Cyrus has a deep knowledge of both the owner-occupied and investment property markets and offered helpful guidance from start to finish. He guided us through our home purchase a few years ago, helping us land a dream home in our target Chicago neighborhood and then he helped us sell a rental property that was proving to be a poor investment (purchased through a different agent in the past). We can't speak highly enough of his help through both processes. My wife and I would encourage anyone to work with him.

Cyrus is a true professional and expert negotiator

I cannot give enough praise for Cyrus Seraj and the MG Group for the handling of my condo sale in the Spring of 2021. From pre-listing through closing, the process was seamless. Prior to listing, Cyrus and the MG Group took the lead on coordinating contractors, cleaners, stagers, photographers, etc. to ensure the condo was in its absolute best showing condition. Once on the market, the team handled every showing and provided agent/buyer feedback immediately following an appointment. Within 4 days we had multiple offers and went under contract at full list price. I'm also very grateful for the professionalism and organization of the MG Group office staff who kept everything on track for closing and made the process so easy. Cyrus is a true professional and expert negotiator; I have no doubt his extensive knowledge of the market and guidance are what got us to the best possible outcome. If you're thinking of buying or selling, do yourself a favor and get in touch with the MG Group.

So, the problem with Sellers it that they know...

So, the problem with Sellers it that they know it all. They know their house is one of a kind, it's undervalued, it's better than all the rest and even better, they know how to showcase it so that it sells quickly. My advice: keep your mouth shut, complete the Checklist that Maria gives you and your home will invariably sell. And usually very fast. Again, for the slow learners, stop talking and thinking and just follow her advice if you want your home to clear at market clearing price most favorable to you, the Seller. Spoiler: she also guided me as a Buyer and the results were equally static.

Maria worked with us over a long time period, helping us first identify what our next move would loo

Maria worked with us over a long time period, helping us first identify what our next move would look like. No matter how many times I asked her to show me yet another property, she was always willing, timely and upbeat. Maria knows Chicago neighborhoods and properties thoroughly, and she was able to help us sift through all of the factors that would work for us. On the sales side, Maria performed so valiently as Covid threatened to sideline us. Her sales materials photographed and presented our home beautifully. Maria was always straightforward in her thoughts about pricing and timing. As a first offer got derailed by a sudden market crash, and we then eased into the pandemic restrictions, Maria was the utmost in resourcefulness; she worked around shifting restrictions by the real estate community and mayor. The most brilliant thing Maria did was to commission a drone video of our home that literally "walked" prospective buyers through the house so completely, she could then truly restrict an actual viewing to qualified buyers. Bottom line, Maria sold our home at a most difficult time and we got a very decent price for it as a result. Maria is hardworking, responsive, positive, resourceful and deeply wise about Chicago real estate. We give her our top marks.

First class service

I live in Australia so was quite daunted by the thought of selling a condo in Chicago without being able to be there in person at all. COVID on top of that didn’t help. Process was simple. MG Group is 100% full service taking care of repairs, staging, showings, photos/videos (excellent quality), liaising with the condo association, excellent legal referrals (with whom they worked seamlessly) and several walkthroughs by the new owners. All I had to do was sign some papers! They kept me informed day to day and couldn’t have been more responsive to queries. Worth every penny and I would refer them without hesitation to anyone!
