We are always so humbled to hear the wonderful things that our clients have to say about us and we wanted to take the opportunity to share a few of our reviews with our followers.
Renee Zetlin
“Renee helped us through every step of the home purchase process! She was always available and we were able to see the homes we were interested in within the day of asking. She helped make the experience smooth and efficient. Highly recommend using Renee to help you sell and/or buy your home!” ~ Zillow
Mike Rooney
“Mike did an excellent job selling 2 different houses for us. From his in-depth analysis for determining the best possible price to the hours he spent staging our house, he provided extraordinary service. After the contracts were signed, his negotiating skills, attention to detail, and follow-through ensured the deals closed. I would highly recommend Mike and Quaid and Rooney to anyone looking for an excellent realtor to sell their home at the best possible price. ~ Zillow
Mack Quaid
“Working with Mack at Quaid & Rooney was a 10/10 experience! He knew the Chicago market very well, shared great tips and provided trusted guidance. He even went to see 4 properties for us when we were out of town and took in depth videos while there. As first-time home buyers we went into the process pretty blind, but Mack broke down every step for us and explained it all in a way we could grasp. We really enjoyed working with him and the Quaid & Rooney team, I definitely recommend enlisting their services if you’re buying or selling a home!” ~Zillow
We have a team of experienced professionals who regularly receive kudos and reviews from their appreciative clients and we thought it would be fun to share some of them every month. Thank you again to all of our clients, friends and family for putting your trust in us to do the job for you!

Her clients appreciate her extensive knowledge of what every home needs and find her first-hand experience invaluable. Michelle loves being a real estate broker. The happiness she feels when her clients find their future home is what motivates her.

She always asks her clients to try to envision themselves living in the homes she shows them. She takes the time to understand how they live not just where they will live. Her clients must love the house, or she will not stop until she finds “the one.”

Now an empty nester, Michelle and her husband spend time walking or biking through the Morton Arboretum, at the theater or dining in downtown Chicago.
