Greg Alvarado

Greg helped me buy my condo in University Village on the west side of Chicago. The housing market was almost bottoming out at the time. He was professional, prompt, and courteous. He showed me numerous condos and spent a lot of time with me narrowing down the good and the bad of each. He never wasted my time looking at places I didn’t like. He was a straight talker that always had my best interest at heart. I would recommend him to anyone that is looking to move into the city. His knowledge and expertise of the neighborhoods and market was instrumental in me finding my perfect place.

We chose Greg to sell our condo in 2008 because of his strong reputation in the area for being able to sell in a tough market. We started working with him December of 2007 and he recommended we list our condo at the beginning of the year. He forecasted 165 days on the market and was almost spot on. We were under contract after 168 days on the market.
From the beginning, Greg laid out a marketing strategy for us, complete with online marketing, an open house schedule, and yard and street signs. The photo shoot that his team did for our condo was terrific.
We ended up relocating out of state prior to receiving any offers. Greg kept in touch on a regular basis over the phone and email, and he continued to hold open houses.
The offer we received was pretty low, but Greg helped us to negotiate a reasonable price. We ended up taking the offer. Overall, we highly recommend Greg.

Greg helped us by our first house, and we would be hard-​pressed to use any other agent going forward.
By chance, we met Greg at an open house he was hosting. We were really just window-​shopping at that point, but Greg took to the time to speak with us, write down our information, and follow through when he said he would.
That last part was key to our decision, and a window into how Greg operates: Follow through. He’s thorough, attentive, and even with we first-​time buyers, patient.
He’s also unflappably calm, which is an incredibly reassuring trait for your agent to have during what is inevitably a stressful time (buying or selling a home).
We can’t recommend Greg highly enough, whether you’re a first-​time buyer or an old pro. You’ll be in excellent hands.
