"Carsten did a great job selling my Mother's house in Libertyville, IL. Being 2000 miles away I could depend on his attention to every detail, and his intuition in knowing what to do and what not to do in getting the place ready for sale. His past experience with doing improvements before the sale was invaluable. He was great at providing sensible strategies when multiple offers came in and later when the offer we had tried to lower their price. I give him my highest recommendation." - Karl B.
