Being new to the area, she was able to answer all of our questions and was very communicative in between showings/meetings. We were able to fully trust her and her instincts which lead us to finding a great apartment! Thank you Emma!”
“Emma was a true advocate for me since I contacted her. After letting her know what was important to me, she set out to find listings she knew I would love. Her knowledge of the industry as well as Chicago made the process of finding an apartment completely stress-free. Emma was always available to tour, talk, or text and always had an answer to any questions I may have had. Her ability to ask questions I wouldn’t have thought of to brokers and her ability to get answers as well helped me to make the best-informed decision on my apartment hunt. Thanks to Emma, I’ll be moving into my first apartment in the next couple of months, and could not be more pleased!”
