About Ben Lalez

Ben started his real estate career "flipping houses". Not wanting to deal with real estate brokers or general contractors he went out and became a licensed Realtor and licensed general contractor. Through the years, working for himself grew organically into working for others and brokering is now his full time job. Because of his background in construction, clients find that having an agent on their side who understands the nuts and bolts (literally) of a home is exceptionally valuable. REVIEW: "Ben is incredible. I cannot say enough positive things about our experience. We've had other real estate agents and working with Ben was by far a superior experience. He was kind, prepared and really listened to what my husband and I wanted. He was patient with us (we looked for over 5 months to buy!). He never rushed our decisions. His opinions were valuable and honest. We never felt like he was trying to sell us on something. When we finally found the house of our dreams, Ben negotiated a price that was within our budget! I highly recommend Ben!"

I had the pleasure of working with Sally on my recent condo purchase, and I couldnt have asked for a better experience. From the moment I reached out, she was incredibly responsive and supportive. She set me up early on to browse listings through her teams site, and when I was ready to move forward, we hit the ground running. We began actively viewing condos in February 2025, and by March, I had an accepted offer; thanks to Sallys focus, guidance, and expertise. She was always attentive to what I was looking for, gently reminding me of my priorities and helping me adjust the search strategy to stay aligned with my budget as interest rates shifted. From the start, she connected me with a great lender and later introduced me to contractors for renovations. She also offered thoughtful advice on what upgrades would be worthwhile in the short and long term, which was incredibly helpful as a first-time buyer. Sally is professional, knowledgeable, and truly had my best interest at heart throughout the entire process. I highly recommend working with her if youre looking for someone who genuinely cares and delivers results.

Anastasiia, is the perfect mixture of super talent meets hard work making her the exact person you should hire to help you find and close on your dream Chicago home. She is brilliant in key areas: Contract review, negotiation, property assessment, home searching, client communication, HOAs, and deal structuring. And when I mean brilliant, I mean way beyond the normal realtor. Her attention to detail and professional background has created a skillset of which is the best I've seen and heard of. Anastasiia is also very enjoyable to be around, so you will have fun searching for the right place for you. Which is so important in home buying. In closing, the wrong realtor will cost you your dream home and the right one will not only find it, but also close it in a favorable manner. My advice is, hire Anastasiia. P.S. She has incredible resources, especially inspectors and contractors to help evaluate any home issue that arises during attorney review. Looking back this was so important. Anastasiia is the best and only works with the best in professional home services.
