"Nicole helped us sell our Uptown condo and buy our dream North Park home. Her market analysis determined our condo was worth significantly more than I estimated. She recommended and helped us with several economical improvements to enhance the value. She brought her own items to improve the presentation and even helped move stuff to the basement in preparation for our open house! Within a week of listing we had multiple offers at or above our listing price and successfully closed as scheduled. At the same time she helped us purchase a single family home. We visited nearly a dozen houses with Nicole and with her help developed an excellent understanding of what we wanted. When we found the perfect house she negotiated a very fair price and we closed the sale within 5 weeks. Nicole’s attention to detail, eye for design, follow-up, work-ethic and market knowledge made our sale and purchase a fantastic experience. "

"As apartment dwellers for most of our life, my husband and i decided we wanted to own a home. We contacted Nicole Norwalk for help finding that special home. Being first time home buyers we didn't have a clue about the process of finding and purchasing a home. Nicole stepped in to explain every detail of finding and purchasing a home. We could not have done it without her. Thanks again Nicole"

She worked tirelessly to find us something that suited our needs and really impressed us, and helped us with the right strategy to make sure when we found it - we got it!

Well after the sale, she is still attentive and helpful for any questions and to see how we are liking our new home.

Nicole is amazing at what she does."

Throughout the selling and buying process, we encountered a couple major "bumps" along road, which resulted in an extremely stressful experience for us.

"Nicole helped my wife and I by a condo in Old Town last Spring, while we were living abroad In London. She was able to schedule 10+ showing over 2 days when we were visiting Chicago in March. She was invaluable in helping us narrow it down to a couple final contenders and set up 2nd and 3rd showings over the next 2 days. She also assisted us in getting responses from the sellers realtor, who was not always very responsive. Overall Nicole was able to show us 10+ homes and assist us in making an offer on the home we live in now over a 4 days period, a Herculean task which would not have been possible without her assistance. Nicole continued to be very helpful and responsive during the closing period when my wife and I returned to London. I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a realtor in the Chicago area"

She has the experience and knowledge, but above all, Nicole is honest and really cared about what was best for us and we couldn't have done it without her."

  -Zillow User, Client

"My wife and I interviewed a lot of realtors including discount commission realtors before signing documents with Nicole Norwalk of @Properties. Surprisingly, every realtor had something different to say on what to do and how to sell our home. But what stood out mostly about Nicole…was her aggressiveness. We wanted a go-getter, someone who was not going to sit around and wait. A person hungry for the listing and who would do an aggressive marketing/staging job--Nicole was our answer. Nicole was patient with us and understood our concerns unlike the 2-3% commission realtors. She either texted or called us back right away. This was our first house listing of almost 20 years—it was difficult to let go and say goodbye to the neighborhood. Nicole understood our seller’s remorse by making our transition less complicated and more enjoyable. She has years of experience to draw from, a knack for speaking with people and can negotiate good deals. "

  -BoFits , Client

"Nicole is the third realtor i had come across to deal with. Indeed the other two were good or rather excellent. But then how to describe Nicole--EXCEPTIONAL i suppose. I am a retired person moved into USA about two years back. Decided to invest into property to generate some income for my living. My total savings left were $ 90000.00. On some recommendations i contacted Nicole and gave her my requirements. Unlike most other agents she did not start auto mailing me scores of properties with a wide range of price some rent able some not. Instead she short listed some which fitted my requirement and viewed them personally before mailing them to me. That saved me frequent unnecessary long drives. We only made one trip to view the properties. Out of her experience she was able to observe even the most minute pluses and minuses of each and every apartment, keeping in consideration the tow association and taxes."

  -Zillow User, Client

"Nicole was extremely helpful and insightful throughout the entire home buying process. I was new to Chicago when beginning my condo hunt, making it imperative that my agent had a deep knowledge of the Chicagoland real estate market and strong familiarity with the offerings of its various neighborhoods. Nicole not only possessed that knowledge but was tremendously patient with me as I must have toured over 40 different units and switched back and forth between different neighborhoods. Her enthusiasm never wavered as I insisted on seeing so many units and different neighborhoods. She allowed me to personally get a feel for each neighborhood as we searched, and eventually helped me find the exact unit I was searching for. Throughout the search she was always accommodating to my busy schedule and made herself available regardless of the day or time. Even after purchasing, Nicole has continued to serve as a resource for any issues or concerns regarding homeownership. "

  -Bradley Obrecht, Client

"Nicole is a rock star! I was helping a friend out who is relocating to Chicago and she was very efficient in setting up several properties for me to see. She really understood my friend's needs and was very helpful considering he could not be with us to look at the properties. We found the perfect place within hours. Simply put, Nicole is a must use resource for all of your real estate needs. Sean will enjoy his new place! Thanks Nicole!"

  -jeepin2, Client

"All I can say is WOW! We were very impressed with Nicole’s professionalism, personal attention, and marketing strategies. Nicole is a first class, high caliber, real estate professional. We received her personal attention almost on a daily basis. She was always available for questions, and made us feel like we were her only client. She is gifted, talented and knows the market. Our home in Bucktown sold within 12 days and all the details were taken care of by Nicole. We were totally impressed and would recommend Nicole to anyone who wants to sell their home quickly and not leave money on the table."

  -Mike Jonas, Client

"Nicole helped me to buy my first property. She was very patient and helped walk me through all the steps that were involved.
