Carey Walling

​★★★★★
"Carey was so awesome and helpful. We recently had a move to Chicago and had a pretty quick turnaround time to find a place to live due to a job change. We got in touch with Carey and quite literally in a day and a half, she was able to put together a nice list of apartments that matched our budget and needs. We spent an afternoon checking them all out and found one on the very first day. Carey was professional and very personable and we would recommend working with her over and over again! Thank you so much Carey!”

"Carey was truly amazing. There are many good realtors around Chicago, but there are NOT many that truly listen and get to know you to fully understand your needs. She not only nailed it with all she was suggesting along the way, but she helped us face hard decisions that put us on track to decide what we were willing to compromise. She knew how important this decision was for our family, and understood the intricacies of the neighborhood we were working in. She knows a lot about areas, use of space, renovation and rehabs. If you are a first time home buyer that needs lots of explanation and someone to ask and see things before you even think of them, Carey is your person. If you are buying your 20th home, and you are picky and particular, she is your person too. She will deliver and not only that, you will LOVE working with her during the process.”

Throughout the process she was extremely professional, attentive to detail and incredibly easy to work with. We felt confident with her guidance from day one as she is a straight shooter and was extremely honest with us every step of the way. She offered excellent advice, answered every question and helped us make informed decisions. We would highly recommend Carey to anyone seeking a truly professional (and fun!) realtor who always keeps her clients interests at heart! Thank you, Thank you!”

"If you’re looking for a hard-working, knowledgeable, and thoughtful broker, look no further. Carey is the one. Selling my condo was such a pleasant experience with Carey. She worked so hard and went above and beyond to make sure the process went smoothly so that I didn’t have to worry while I was at work or out of town or running here and there. She not only made the process painless but she also got me the absolute best price $$$ which was the cherry on top of everything. When I move back to Chicago in the future, Carey will be the one I’ll be calling! Thank you Carey!”

"Wow! There’s no other word to describe it -- Carey and Stefanie provided amazing concierge-level service for our sale that spoiled us forever. The transaction ended up being a challenge, with unexpected issues regarding the property. But I would not have wanted anyone else in the “foxhole” with us. Carey and Stefanie provided level-headed, practical advice to get the best price for our property even when the news was bad. They were incredibly responsive and seemingly always available. And they took care of literally everything (I almost felt guilty sometimes). They have a very appreciative client here, and one for life! You will not go wrong with this team.”

"Carey was amazing! She is very knowledgeable and goes above and beyond. Coming from out of state, she was able to do FaceTime viewings of places I was interested in, which was extremely helpful. All in all, she made the process so easy and stress free.”

"This is my second time working with Carey. She was professional, responsive and helpful with all my questions. I had a quick turnaround to find an apartment and within 48 hours she provided great options. She met me at the showings, helped me with the paperwork and followed up once I moved in. I highly recommend Carey and I can't wait to work with her again!”

"Carey was great from start to finish! We first sold our townhouse with Carey and then purchased a smaller condo. Both the sale and purchase went quickly and smoothly. Carey's advice was excellent, from decluttering our townhouse to ideas for the new condo. Carey was very responsive and even saved me when I locked myself out! Carey was able to recommend cleaners, repair personnel, window washers, etc. and all services were reasonable and professional. Highly recommend!”

​★★★★★
"We cannot thank Carey enough for helping us purchase our dream home. She is an exceptional realtor and knows the market well. She made herself available for every showing even when very little notice was given. We were in a multiple offer situation, and she was able to advise us to make sure our offer stood out. She was relentless with her follow up and getting us updates on our offer. Carey was even able to negotiate us a credit during attorney review when an unexpected inspection item came up despite the fact there were back up offers lined up. This was a very stressful market and Carey was always available to answer our phone calls, give us guidance and even calm us down when our anxieties got the best of us. Her advice was invaluable, and her negotiation skills were top notch. Not only would I use her again, I will refer her to everyone I know. We couldn’t be happier with our home and the exceptional service that Carey provided.”

"Carey was very helpful and patient throughout our house hunting process. She would follow up on all our offers on time and ensured we got a response from all our offers. She also advised us when we put in our offers since it was a competitive market. We were glad to have her as our agent”

"Very pleasant, readily available to questions and advice. Very attentive to details and making sure that every aspect of sale and complex legal aspects of it are attended to properly. Was also helpful putting together large amount of documents.”

​★★★★★
"Carey is wonderful to work with! She is extremely knowledgeable about all of Chicago's neighborhoods, the available listings in the neighborhoods and pricing trends for the different types of dwellings and their square footage. She responds immediately and we were continuously updated on the newest listings. She makes sure showings are organized, the other agents are on time, and that our time was used wisely. Being new to getting a residence in the city, we learned so much about the best neighborhoods and best types of dwellings to meet our family's needs. If you're looking to relocate in Chicago, we highly recommend Carey!”

"Carey was absolutely delightful to work with! We had multiple challenges through the course of the sale of our property, and she went above and beyond. Finding vendors to help resolve inspection issues, navigating complications that came up with the attorneys, always responsive and constantly following up. I would absolutely work with her again!”

​★★★★★
"Carey was wonderful in every way. She was thorough, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and always went above and beyond. For example, when I did not have access to a car, she offered to pick me up and take me to a showing. When she was not able to take us to a showing, she immediately found an associate to take her place. She was also incredibly personable. Our apartment rental search did not take long at all and was so easy with all Carey's help. Carey was referred to us from a friend, and we referred her on to someone else!”

​★★★★★
"From start to finish Carey was amazing, thorough, professional and understanding. I highly recommend Carey! She was three steps ahead of me during the entire transaction. Seriously, you will not be disappointed if you have Carey as your guide in the crazy housing process. Thanks Carey!”

"Carey Walling handled both the sale of our old home and assisted in helping us find a new home to purchase as well. Carey's impressive knowledge of the housing market enabled us to get an excellent price for our home in very short order. The entire process was handled with skill and Carey projected an empathic and positive outlook throughout the entire process. I can't imagine anyone doing a better job than Carey Walling and I would heartily recommend her to anyone who wants to sell their home. She is simply the best.”

"Carey Walling helped me find my current rental and was amazing throughout the entire process. She made herself available on numerous occasions and communicated with me whenever I had questions. I had the most smooth transition moving into my new home. I highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking help. She is strongly committed to her work and ensures that all needs are met from start to finish. I will not hesitate to work with her again in the future.”

​★★★★★
"Carey is an incredible realtor and helped me find my dream condo. She walked me through every step of the process as this was my 1st place. She recommended a number of different lenders, showed me different areas of the city, negotiated an amazing price, and even helped me to pick service providers. Her knowledge of the city areas really helped me narrow down what I actually wanted for my lifestyle and where future value exists. Her responsiveness was incredible, getting back to me within minutes of all my 1st time buyer questions. She is honest with you about what is truly good vs what looks good. Carey is extremely easy to work with and I always felt that she had my best interests at heart rather than just closing the deal. I can't recommend her enough and I will definitely be using her again for all my real estate needs!”

​★★★★★
"Carey was extremely helpful in our search for an apartment in the Lakeview/Lincoln Park area. We began our search right as the COVID-19 pandemic began and she was able to guide us through the search seamlessly even in such unprecedented times. She was extremely responsive and answered every question we could possibly think of. Even before all shelter in place regulations were put into place she set aside an entire day to show us around in the rain and view some listings.”
- Jason V

​★★★★★
"Carey did an outstanding job as my real estate agent! She was very supportive and responsive from the beginning of the process and even after closing. This was demonstrated when she followed up with me on an inquiry while on vacation! I can appreciate her due diligence and thoroughness. I will continue to refer her to my friends and colleagues. Thanks again Carey!”

​★★★★★
"Carey was so helpful throughout my apartment search. Not only did she provide numerous options but she was also very knowledgeable of the nuances at each apartment as well as very accommodating to my schedule and getting viewings set up in a timely manner. She made the process very easy and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a new home”

She not only nailed it with all she was suggesting along the way, but she helped us face hard decisions that put us on track to decide what we were willing to compromise. She knew how important this decision was for our family, and understood the intricacies of the neighborhood we were working in. It wasn't an easy task, but every time she didn't know things immediately, she did thorough research, evaluated options, talked to a number of experts, and helped us get solutions and ideas that were fulfilling our needs and that showed she sees beyond and can definitely think outside the box. She knows a lot about areas, use of space, renovation and rehabs. If you are a first time home buyer that needs lots of explanation and someone to ask and see things before you even think of them, Carey is your person. If you are buying your 20th home, and you are picky and particular, she is your person too. She will deliver and not only that, you will LOVE working with her during the process. She is warm and inviting, but do not be fooled, she is an excellent negotiator. With Stephanie Lavelle, they are a dream team to work with. So when in doubt, read reviews.. and I hope this one pointed you in the right direction. My family is super thankful.”

"Carey was so helpful, knowledgeable, kind and professional in her search to find me an apartment. She responded back to all of my questions quickly and efficiently. I was moving to Chicago from out of town and took a trip to the city to tour apartments for a quick weekend in May. Carey was so organized when we toured multiple apartments over a day and a half. Carey followed up when I moved into the apartment to make sure I was still happy with my choice and if there was anything she could help me with! I recommended her to one of my friends who was also moving from out of town and she was able to help them find an apartment. I could not recommend Carey enough, I am excited to work with her in the future!”

"Carey is a fantastic realtor. She is knowledgeable, organized and very helpful. She made buying our new home an easy process and guided us the whole way. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.”

​★★★★★
"I ended up working with Carey because the original realtor I was working with was going on vacation. After speaking with Carey on the phone the first time, I decided I wanted to continue with her on my apartment-searching-journey, in a brand new city. When moving to Chicago from NY with absolutely no knowledge of the neighborhoods here in Chicago, I had a very crazy idea of where I thought I wanted to be & the type of residence I wanted to rent, but Carey walked me & my roommate through the entire process. She has an intuitive sense of what is the best place/neighborhood/deal for her clients, and that is an invaluable asset to any agent. Thanks to her tireless search and patience I ended up with the apartment of my dreams, in my preferred neighborhood (Lakeview), and I couldn't be happier. I've already recommended her to a colleague & I will continue to refer friends who are looking for a new home to her. She's not only my real estate agent, but she has become a great friend; I can't wait to purchase my first home with her help! Professional Knowledgeable Great negotiator And most importantly, personable and incredibly kind!”
