If you need a top notch realtor who knows the industry plus the community, Gretchen should be your first choice. She goes above and beyond for her clients. Gretchen makes sure you are educated and understand the entire process from start to finish. Plus, she does things most realtors don’t. She took my mothers dog for a walk during a showing. I cannot say enough about our experience with Gretchen as our listing agent and finding a new home for my mother. She truly embodies excellent customer service.

I have purchased many personal and investment properties over the past 25 years and I can honestly say that Gretchen has been the most pleasant and informed broker I have ever worked with in both the Western Chicago Suburbs as well as the West Coast of the US. She is honest, knowledgeable and always has your best interests in mind. I will be selling a couple of properties in the near term and it is reassuring to know I have Gretchen in my corner!

My husband and I were in the market to purchase a home in Plainfield about 7 years ago. At the time we were using a different realtor, which we quickly found out wasn’t working in our best interest. That’s when we found Gretchen. We were young, inexperienced buyers but knew what we wanted. It was a total buyers market with lots of options and we wanted to take our time. Gretchen made the experience pleasant, she educated us and was just a joy to work with. After we bought our home I kept in contact with Gretchen over the years. I would ask her for advice on whether or not certain upgrades to the home were in our best interest and if it’d add value. She always responded! In 2018, my husband and I decided it was time to make a move so naturally we contacted Gretchen. At this point in the market it was a sellers market and we wanted to take full advantage of it and we did. Gretchen walked through the house and gave us some wonderful ideas on getting our house “market ready”. Simple, inexpensive things that made a world of difference. Once we were ready, we sold in no time and we walked away with being able to afford our forever dream home. Just as it was when we were buyers, we walked away informed, educated, and truly enjoyed the experience. We bought out of state, otherwise we would’ve used Gretchen, but as buyers again. We truly trust her! I’ve read that buying/selling a home can be one of the top stressful experiences a person can go through. I can assure you, Gretchen takes any of those doubts or nerves away. She makes the process simple and painless. It genuinely feels like a partnership and you’re both working in the clients best interest. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her and to this day I still text her and of course, she responds!

Gretchen's personality is very calming to the nervous buyer or seller. We used her to both sell and buy our new home. I would highly recommend her as she is very knowledgeable in the area and has a fast response time when you have questions.
