Thank you!

Local knowledge is amazing!

Suzanne is the most patient and supportive broker you could imagine.  In addition, her local knowledge and understanding of her client's needs is amazing.  She has been our agent through multiple real estate transactions and we look forward to working with her in any future business.

The Luby Group had our house sold in two weeks.

We had our house listed with someone else for 4 months. We switched to Suzanne and it sold in 2 weeks. After we had agreed on price, Suzanne was always right on top of all the details. Both the buyers’ agent and attorney were unresponsive, not returning phone calls, emails, or texts for days at a time. Suzanne stepped in and was the one who made the closing happen.

The Only Real Estate Agent I Recommend

Shortly after meeting Jim Luby and listing our house for sale with him, we bought our new house in Colorado and moved. That meant leaving our 35 year old house in Hawthorn Woods vacant for an extended period. It meant putting our faith in our 1,000-miles-away real estate agent to help us through this transition period. Given some problematic issues with our property, we knew that we were unlikely to enjoy a quick sale. We had significant home inspection issues, well and septic challenges, and finally the buyer's loan delays due to Irma. Suffice it to say that we leaned on Jim far beyond the normal seller / real estate agent relationship. We came to know Jim quite well!

Throughout all of our challenges, Jim was the ultimate professional. He was patient when it was appropriate to be patient, and always collaborative. His advice was offered without bias, by which I mean that he was looking out first for us, and second for himself. He was never too busy to answer our calls. There was no question that he was squarely on our side. We came to rely on Jim to represent our interests, and he accepted that responsibility willingly. Throughout the process, from listing to sale, he never once let us down.

I suppose that real estate agents get lots of reviews that say things like, "He sold our house in 2 weeks above asking price". That's nice, but what did that agent actually do? Was the advice on price appropriate? Who was the agent looking out for?

Unlike our first listing agent (we fired her) who suggested a ridiculously high price just to get our business, Jim was realistic. He was honest. He was sympathetic to our situation, and unwavering in his efforts to find us a buyer and drive the deal to closing. He got us every dollar that was to be had.

 I recommend Jim Luby without reservation. Perhaps more importantly, I trust Jim Luby. He is the only Lake County real estate agent I recommend. I do so knowing that his character and his skills will serve his clients well beyond what's "expected". Of this I have no doubt.

High integrity and commitment to excellence

Jim Luby's experience, preparedness, knowledge and negotiating skills exceeded our expectations. Jim's communication and marketing strategy coupled with his market knowledge is truly remarkable.  During our home selling journey, he was continually attentive to our goals and provided us with the most current market information to assist with the home selling process.  We listed our home and within 4 days had an offer.  The Luby Group’s dedication to their clients speaks volumes in regards to their integrity and commitment to excellence.

The BEST real estate agent I have ever worked with

Jim Luby & Suzanne Luby are by far the BEST real estate agents I have ever worked with.  Not only are they super knowledgeable, they're willing to go the extra mile when it comes to showing, re-seeing, inspecting, , closing, etc.   When we were seeing places, they helped ask the right questions...truly helpful.  I can't thank them enough.  I've purchased multiple properties before, and I was extremely grateful to have The Lubys on my side.

Excellent service

February 6th, 2017

We want to express our appreciation for everything you did in finding us a home.  Words cannot express the excellent service we received from you.  Moving from Virginia to Illinois presented many difficulties, but you took care of everything and guided us through the process.  We really appreciated all of the additional things that you did to facilitate.  We have already given your name to a number of our family members and friends who might be considering a move.
