James Gargano

“We were looking for a good-sized home to raise our two boys in Naperville. We had a list of must-haves in mind which included our favorite neighborhood. We thought that for sure we would have to compromise somewhere, and most likely would not be able to get all we wanted.

However, James Gargano, our Realtor, was phenomenal. He found absolutely EVERYTHING in our list. EVERYTHING!! Not only that, but it was also a quick, smooth, painless process. He guided us through the whole thing including financing, inspection, lawyers, and all that was needed to make our dream of homeownership come true. We followed his advice in everything and within 3 months we were moving into our forever home. We highly recommend The Alice Chin Team. They are extremely professional, experienced, and friendly. Working with them was absolutely the best decision we made.”  - Marhiel

"Alice/Jim's professionalism and the whole team provide top notch service! I sold my home and bought a new home in a matter of a little over 2 months in this crazy market. Couldn't have done it without their great service and support! Would recommend to anyone!"  - Jaewon

"We engaged Jim Gargano and The Alice Chin Team of Compass Real Estate to sell our family property earlier this year. We could not have been more impressed with Jim's overall analytical ability, level of detail and responsiveness during the entire process. He helped us navigate through various challenges, from the time we sold the property all the way to closing. We went under contract within 3 days and we sold for over $25,000 above list price! I would encourage anybody who has any real estate needs to contact Jim Gargano and The Alice Chin Team."  - Sanjay

“We decided to relocate to Illinois so that we could be closer to our daughter and her family. After our initial investigation we had concerns about finding a home that would meet all our needs, especially in such a HOT housing market. Then we found James Gargano at Compass. Jim listened to ALL our needs and desires we had for our new home. We cannot imagine going through the process without Jim’s help and guidance. Thanks so much Jim for helping us to find our forever home. " - Pat & Bill

“We wanted to understand the full scope of what the process would entail, so we invited Jim and Alice over for an introductory meeting. From that meeting, it was obvious a lot more goes into selling a home than great photos and an open house. It takes professionals who can anticipate challenges with your home and the current market and provide the knowledge and coaching on how to navigate them.

Jim's years of experience in the home valuation industry were so vital in ensuring our home appraised for the highest value possible. We were SO ecstatic and surprised that our house ended up appraising at value - over $100,000 more than we paid for the house just 12 months prior!

We are so happy we decided to work with Jim and Alice on our home. They are kind, professional, honest, and responsive; and we truly believe we would not have sold our house in the time or for the price we did if we had done so ourselves (or with any other Realtor, for that matter.) Thank you again!”  - Ashley

“We chose Jim personally because of our past experience with him as a certified real estate appraiser for our law practice. We knew that the listing price we decided on would be based on Jim's background, knowledge, and expertise - and it was spot on. We chose The Alice Chin Team because of their approach to a plan for selling our home.  It was a very modern perspective, making use of social media and aerial drone photography.

Jim and his team took so many burdens off our shoulders so that we could focus on other matters. There's no way we could have dealt with everything while still working and moving. It was such a relief to hand those details off, knowing it would all be handled professionally and safely.

Our home sold immediately and at our listing price to excellent qualified buyers.  The whole process was so quick and so easy and Jim was involved every step of the way.  We are very grateful to Jim Gargano and The Alice Chin Team for everything they did for us.  We would definitely recommend them to anyone -- buyer or seller. Thanks, Jim!!!”  - Russ & Kathryn
