Courtney Elko

I strongly recommend asking Courtney to help you buy a home. My husband and I stumbled upon a house we loved, and asked Courtney to take us back for a second look. We were not in the market or even looking when we first saw the house, it was supposed to be just for fun. When we fell in love, Courtney took us seriously, and things moved very quickly at that point. Courtney introduced us to our now amazing lender who was able to crunch numbers quickly and make sure we could jump in with both feet, even though we hadn't begun the process of listing or selling our current home. (Courtney helped us with that, too!) Courtney was with us every step of the way on the purchase of our new home. She worked closely with the listing agent, and got all of our questions answered, and worked with our lender very closely as well. I really just sat back and let Courtney drive. She got us safely through the process and to our final destination -- our new home! Courtney celebrated with us as if it was her own personal joy. We are so happy to have shared what is typically a very stressful experience with Courtney, who handled the entire process with grace and confidence. I strongly recommend Courtney for your home buying (and selling) needs! Her recommendations are spot on, too! Inspector, movers, painters, you name it! When you are ready to move, and even if you're not ;), Courtney has you covered!

Where do I begin? We purchased a home before putting ours on the market, so we were in a bit of a hurry to get ours on the market. Courtney went above and beyond to help us get ready FAST! From pulling comps, gathering opinions on listing price, staging, listing, showing, an amazing open house, and even handling each of our multiple offers with care, Courtney made us feel like we were her only clients in the world! Honestly, with the number of calls, questions, and visits Courtney had with me at all hours of the day and night, it felt impossible that she could be working with anyone else. Come to find out, she had a full plate of others just like me, and she just handles us all with grace. She makes you feel like a priority. No question is silly, and if you think you are surprising her, she's heard it before. Trust me. :) Ask Courtney to help you list your home. You won't be sorry. We had multiple offers and I strongly believe Courtney is the reason for that! She created the perfect situation, and we sold almost immediately!

Courtney was the absolute best in every way. She was incredibly attentive and really went above and beyond what I consider the standard for realtors. She treated our home as if it was her's and I believe that gave us an edge in the competitive market. After having a deal fall apart due to the buyer losing his job and not being able to move forward, within 5 days Courtney had us in a bidding war that ended in a sale over asking price. I couldn't recommend her any higher and she will always be my recommendation to friends and family in the Chicago area.
