    "Jeff is great. He knows everything about the city neighborhoods (particularly LP, LV, and OT). We'd be interested in one house here or another there, and he'd immediately say things like, "That backs up to a bar; it's best to steer clear" or "Great street with a park at the end." He really knows his stuff. We put in our first bid on Mother's Day. He took time to discuss the offer, and negotiation and walk us through the process (apologies to your family, Jeff!). When we didn't get that house, he moved quickly to identify another one that we loved. It had just hit the market (no pictures posted or anything) he got us in and worked really aggressively to submit an offer as soon as possible. We got the house and couldn't have been happier with our experience!" - Megan W.

    "Jeff helped our best friends sell their townhouse and buy a house and loved their experience. So when we decided we wanted to move, we contacted Jeff. My wife and I have owned and lived in several houses in CA, MI, and IL, and Jeff is the best real estate agent we've used. Not only did he sell our condo in 4 days (and got us more than our asking price!), but he helped us quickly find our dream home. Throughout the process, Jeff was always available patient, and professional. We never felt hurried or rushed as we have with some other agents in the past. And when we wanted his professional opinion about some renovations we were considering, Jeff cheerfully stopped by to lend his (very helpful, it turns out) advice. This was even though we had no plans of moving. He's super knowledgeable about the Chicago market, fights for his clients, and is always cheerful and professional. Based on our experiences with him and his team, I'd recommend the Lowe Group to anyone looking for a top-notch real estate firm in Chicago." - Andy J.

    ★★★★★
    "My experience with Jeff Lowe and his team was stellar. I did extensive research and interviewing to find the right agent to list my property, and am the first to admit that I am not an easy person to please and tend to be very wary of real estate agents. Jeff exceeded any and all expectations. I have had less than optimal experiences in the past when selling and buying properties in Chicago, St. Louis, and Scottsdale, but Jeff made sure that history did not repeat itself. From my initial inquiry phone call to the closing, Jeff consistently and honestly answered all my questions, phone calls, texts, and emails in a timely manner, as well as provide detailed and helpful guidance at every step in the process. This is due no doubt to Jeff's extensive expertise, professional integrity, and in-depth knowledge of the market in my neighborhood. Unlike many real estate agents I've encountered, Jeff does not take a "churn-and-burn" approach to selling a property in order to pad his sales statistics. Rather he puts very careful time and thought into making market readiness recommendations specific to my property and potential buyer demographic, determining the optimal list price by going beyond Zillow "Zestimates" or merely pulling up online comps, then developing an individualized marketing strategy that capitalizes on his online presence on a variety of appropriate platforms (not just throwing something up on the MLS), making best use of print materials, scheduling showings that highlighted the best features of my property and neighborhood, and then using his personal network with other agents and previous clients to line up serious buyers who are already pre-approved for financing. As a result, within 24 hours of my house going on the market, there was a three-way bidding war and a two days later I accepted a contract that came in over list price. During the negotiation and attorney review phases, Jeff made sure to advocate for me and negotiate in a fair but firm manner with the buyers and their agent. In fact, the real estate attorney whom Jeff recommended to me mentioned several times how impressed she is with Jeff and his team, and specifically noted that, unlike many agents with whom she works, Jeff does not disappear once a contract is signed. Anyone who is fortunate enough to choose Jeff Lowe to help them sell or buy a property will be delighted with the outcome." - Claire H.

    ★★★★★
    "Jeff is a fantastic broker. We worked with him for the past few years as we were looking for a new home. He is extremely knowledgeable in the market. He really understood our needs and was very focused on finding a house that fit our style and interests. Jeff worked really hard for us and managed the process extremely well. We have recommended Jeff to other friends who have bought and sold homes with him. I would highly recommend Jeff and his team for buying or selling a home." - Iris D.

    ★★★★★
    "Jeff helped my husband and I purchase a two-flat, sell a two-flat, and sell a condo. On the sales side, he set our expectations appropriately, marketed the properties very well, generated a lot of traffic to showings, and delivered very good results. When he was my buyer's agent, he knew the properties better than the brokers who listed the property. I recommend Jeff and his team to all my friends and family.." - Anne D.
