"Lee was indispensable in helping myself my fiancé find our new apartment! We had met with Lee before going with a property through a different agent. When that property started dragging their feet, we reached out to Lee again he not only advised us on how to handle the situation, but also helped us find our new apartment! Lee was kind, professional, and always responsive and helpful throughout the process. " - Miranda

"If you are looking to buy or sell a home, I highly recommend Lee Cherney! We have been working with Lee over 15 years. He found us our first house in the city, that house one week, found us our most recent home, just that one week! He knows the Chicago market ( surrounding area) extremely well really listens to what you need. What I like most about Lee is his honest transparent approach when it comes to price, concessions, negotiations. He is very genuine, which we appreciate, guides you the right direction based on years of experience! We will continue to use recommend Lee as our agent of choice. our most recent sale, the buyer's real estate agent pulled me aside to let me know how wonderful she thought Lee was to work with, so his professionalism shines on all fronts! In addition, Lee is SUPER responsive, which is a #1 quality for me!! Thank you Lee for the great partnership over the years!"
