ALWAYS PROFESSIONAL.
HIGHLY COMMUNICATIVE.

“Sam is fantastic – this was our third transaction with Sam (he help us buy our first house, sell it when we moved out of Chicago, then helped us buy again when we moved back) and as long as he’s still doing this, we will use him as our realtor. Always professional, has a great crew around him, highly communicative, and just a nice person. Has deep experience in the entire Chicago area and was really good about helping us think through our decision.”

We have worked with Sam for the past 11 years. He was our realtor when we bought our first condo in Chicago and we subsequently trusted him to represent us in three other transactions. In our latest engagement together, he helped us sell our townhouse in Lincoln Park. We relocated to NC and the place needed some work pre and post offer. His team was there to help us all the way. When a contractor needed to access the property, they were there, when we needed a contact for someone to do a repair, they had the perfect contact. Being an out of town seller is complicated enough and prone to massive headaches. Sam and team were critical in removing a lot of those headaches from us.

Sam and his team were very personable, communicative, patient, and easy to work with during a sometimes stressful process. He and his team, especially Arlette and Jeanne, were able to balance a number of considerations and ultimately able to help me accomplish what I needed in a house sale. I appreciated that they shared their expertise while also allowing me to have final say in the process and negotiation. Overall I am satisfied.

Working with Sam and his team was a truly positive experience. They were incredibly responsive, always keeping us informed throughout the process. Their expertise in the market helped us price our home competitively, and their negotiation skills secured us a great deal. We couldn't be happier with the outcome!

Sam was absolutely amazing to work with. A true pro. Sam provided professional guidance through every step of the process. Having Sam lead the transaction gave me the confidence and comfort I needed from start to finish.

Sam helped us sell our condo about 11 years after he helped us purchase it. When we decided to sell, we knew we wanted Sam’s expertise again as our initial buying experience was wonderful. In these 11 years, he has grown a wonderful team who were very knowledgeable and responsive along the way. At the same time, Sam still maintained his strong work ethic and knowledge. I highly recommend Sam and his team for all of your real estate needs!

Sam and his team (and the 3rd party folks he partners with) were amazing to work with. They were consistently encouraging and positive, even when we were nervous or hit roadblocks we didn't anticipate. There was extra communication and sensitivity as we were in the middle of divorcing, and the whole team understood and acted with utmost professionalism. What I appreciated most was that even though I was in another state and separated, Sam and his team kept us both informed equally at every step; I never had to reach out wondering what was happening. The team helped us evaluate and adjust when interest slowed, making sure we were comfortable with the changes, and that brought us the right buyer. We are thankful for their hard work and very satisfied with the results!

Sam was an incredible partner for the sale of our condo. From our initial meeting all the way to the closing date, Sam was there for guidance and to make the process seamless. He consistently made himself available for any questions or feedback throughout the process, and was incredibly patient and receptive. He’s an excellent negotiator and advisor, and helped us achieve what we went in feeling was our “reach” outcome- we couldn’t be happier. When interest in our home seemed to hit slumps, Sam was prepared with follow-ups to parties who had visited prior, and hosted multiple open houses for us. He and his team do an excellent job of keeping their seller in the loop, while also working incredibly hard behind the scenes and not over-sharing. We knew that when Sam called, it was always with news or a decision to make. We couldn’t recommend Sam and his team enough.

Sam did an amazing job assisting us with the purchase of our first home. He was friendly, honest, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. He was very responsive and readily answered all of our (many) questions. He ultimately helped us buy a home at a competitive price and with good resale value and we are very happy with the overall experience. We would recommend him to all of our friends and family looking to buy or sell a home!

Sam Shaffer is a cut above the rest! When it comes to knowing how way around the real estate industry, he’s got all the bases covered! Not only does Sam return calls/texts/emails promptly & efficiently (no matter the hour), he also takes no prisoners in terms of manning the wheelhouse - his negotiation skills are superior, his level of professionalism is astute, and his attention to detail is unfailing. Additionally, Sam’s team is always at the helm to support Sam’s clients with the utmost care & concern. We have worked with Sam on more than one real estate transaction now & will continue to work with him in the future.
