Testimonials

"Excellent, personalized, prompt service. This agent is all caring for the benefit of her client, which is us. She sold our multimillion house in 3 days. I have no doubt she will be an asset to any client, who wished to engage her services for his/her real estate needs. I recommend her highly."

"Sheetal is the consummate professional. I went to her for assistance with selling a property involved in an estate sale. She knows the market inside and out, guided me through buyer's expectations, and has an unfailing work ethic. I highly recommend her without reservations if you are looking to buy or sell your home."

"It's rare you find a partner with both emotional and intellectual intelligence. Sheetal is a unique combination of both. Analytical in her approach and human in dealing with purchases that can trigger emotions. I would strongly recommend her for any future purchase. She's my go-to agent!"

" We worked with Sheetal to find our current home in Lincoln Park. We were expecting twins and thus, were under a tight deadline. Sheetal spent quite a bit of time with us looking at various properties and also helping us hone in on what we needed most out of our new home. She also has valuable insight regarding resale, property inspection, school districts and strengths and weaknesses of various neighborhoods. We will most definitely be working with her again when we make our next move!"

"Sheetal Balani has represented my wife and I on several transactions over the years (personal, rental, etc) in the City of Chicago. She has become not just a go-to resource for our real-estate needs, but she's also has successfully assisted many of my friends and family as well. She is a consummate professional whose greatest attributes include her keen attention to detail, her prompt follow-up, her knowledge of the Chicagoland market, and her strong communication skills (both written and verbal). In addition to all the aforementioned, and most importantly, she has a knack for providing sound negotiating advice. All too often in the industry, agents are not willing to take stands during negotiations and leave it up to their inexperienced clients to drive what is typically the most critical part of a real estate transaction. This is not the case with Sheetal. She provides guidance and directs us to the point where in several situations, we were able to secure market leading results in the sales, purchases, and tenant acquisitions that Sheetal helped us with. I highly recommend Sheetal Balani for your real estate needs."

"I can't say enough good things about Sheetal! She is successful, so obviously good at what she does. But in my experience, I've been particularly impressed with how responsive she is to my questions and concerns, how organized she is, and how well she knows her market. I bought my condominium with her help, and she was aggressive in negotiating me the best price possible.....and now as I'm selling the same unit she is working hard to not only get me market value for the unit, but set a new higher 'market'. She's friendly, experienced, and always your advocate. You'll be lucky to have her as your Realtor!"
