read moreI wanted to take a moment and comment on the experience I had with buying a home using Scott's services Coming from the great state of Arizona and as a licensed real estate broker I thought it silly to be legally required to enlist the services of an attorney to buy a single family home; our transaction was to be cut and dry. We were making a fair offer with cash purchase and short close and I saw employing an attorney as an undue expense but begrudgingly went along with it. I sought a referral from a trusted friend and hired Scott.

I have seen very few transactions go as wrong as ours did in my experience in real estate. The home was recorded with the county incorrectly, the CC&Rs were wrong, there were countless required repairs and contractual errors/breeches and all were handled swiftly and expertly. Scott continued to respond promptly and professionally long after closing and long after the check had cleared in this nightmare home buying experience never charging an additional dollar above the original quote. The one bright spot in the transaction was Scott and I will gladly share his contact information with all looking to execute real estate dealings in the Chicagoland area.
