Buyers Quotes
As a
single woman and a first time home buyer, I was very apprehensive when I contemplated
purchasing a condo. But after I met you, I
realized that I had nothing to worry about. You
are a take-charge kind of person, and you led me through the entire process-from finding a
condo to the closing-with efficiency, compassion, and humor. You became my friend, confidante, and biggest
supporter. You were tough and business like when the situation called for it, yet you
always made me feel like my feelings and concerns mattered to you personally. I appreciate all you did on my behalf, and
wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to recommend you to friends and family in the future. I LOVE my new home!

Myrna
Skilling was our agent two years ago when we bought our South Loop condo, which we love. We had been shopping with Myrna, in a leisurely
way, for more than a year before we chose a condo to buy.
Myrna was marvelously patient, showing us dozens of places so we would have a good
idea of the possibilities. She was energetic,
knowledgeable, good humored, and fun to be with. It
was always easy to reach her-she returned calls right away.
When we finally chose a place, Myrna was very helpful to us in dealing with the
seller-developer. We have recommended Myrna
to our friends and will continue to do so.

Believe it
or not, my husband and I started looking for a new residence in Chicago from Hong Kong. We are originally from Texas but have lived and
worked overseas for the last 8 years. We
liked Chicago but really didn’t know the city. We
found Myrna on the Internet. She was very
responsive to our many questions (we had a lot) and helped us learn all about the city and
the many different places to live. By the
time we finally met Myrna we felt like we had known her for years. The buying process was fairly painless because
she listened to what we wanted and showed us where we could get it. We experimented with other real estate agents
before we got to know Myrna, however, we felt that we were just one of many to them. Myrna always made us feel like we were her only
client, regardless of how busy she really was. We
now feel like we are longtime residents of Chicago. We
got a good start because of Myrna!

Myrna was a
delight to work with! Every step of the way,
my husband and I felt that Myrna was there to explain and to rely on. Her vast experience in the Chicago real estate
market really made a difference to us in the quality of the properties we were shown. She took the time to listen and understand what we
wanted, and then proceeded to show us properties that matched our needs and price range. Myrna helped to navigate the labyrinth of rules
and regulations that mystified us as neophytes to the Chicago market. At the closing, our interests were fully
represented and we received great counsel from Myrna in dealing with a difficult seller. I have since recommended her to a close friend and
colleague who has been thrilled to have her as an advisor. Myrna’s
professionalism, expertise, and dedication are without question. We recommended Myrna, Arnold, and her entire team
with our fullest endorsement.

We loved
working with Myrna and Arnold! They are a
fantastic team. We came to Chicago for a long
weekend a year before we made the decision to relocate.
After having lived in the Colorado foothills for 10 years, we didn’t know if
we would be comfortable in Chicago. Myrna
took us on a thorough tour of neighborhoods that could work for us-by the end of the day
we had seen and heard so much that we were convinced that Chicago would be great. Myrna kept in touch with us throughout the next
year-keeping us abreast if market activity. Unfortunately,
the houses that we had targeted all went under contract the week before our arrival. Myrna, however, had heard of a rumor of a home
that was due to come on the market in the next few weeks.
She tracked it down and showed us the house before the sign was even up! We had it under contract that evening! Myrna and Arnold know Chicago and its
neighborhoods intimately. They have a high
level of integrity and commitment to their clients: they do their utmost to ensure their
clients’ needs are met. Myrna’s
exuberant sense of humor made the job of house hunting a fun adventure. We enthusiastically recommend Myrna and Arnold.
