We had a great first home buying experience with Deb. We worked for almost an year with Deb and she was patient enough to keep showing us homes and never once did Deb force us to buy something just because we were long enough in the search. She always said - "You should feel that this is your home, until then the search is ON" .. Would like to recall on an occasion where she was representing a seller and us(buyer) she showed her professionalism where never at any moment she was biased to any parties.. Deb always insisted on doing things right and the right way and never cut corners, I truly loved this aspect.Deb was very quick in getting responses we needed from agents and was on top for follow up's. She also helped us understand inspection reports which were new to us. Deb has a great team of mortgager, attorney's, handyman and inspection agents who I think are someone of the best in this industry. Lastly, what we loved about Deb was she never rushed us to make any decision and allowed us time to think which immensely helped us as we were new to home buying.

Deb was a fantastic realtor. She didn't let us settle and was patient but directive as we navigated our home search. She ensured our best interests every step of the way and was just a pleasure to be with.

In short, Deb was excellent. We had a unique situation where we were still living in Louisiana and were not able to come up to view houses because of the speed of the market. She made the process as stress free and helpful as possible in those circumstances. She set us up on multiple searches and every time we would find a house we were interested in, she was able to virtually show it to us within a day or two. She even had other people help show us houses when she wasn't available. She was very knowledgeable about the area and gave great advice and insight into each home's location. She was aggressive when she needed to be but also understanding an patient with us which helped us out a ton. Since finding and closing on our house, she has continued to be of assistance since we are new to the area. I cannot recommend her highly enough. At the beginning of the process, I thought we were going to lose our minds because of the enormity of it, the current market and the stress of moving across the country. Deb's help helped to ease all of those concerns and make the process as smooth as could be.

Deb Baker is hands down the BEST realtor you can find. If you dont choose her as your realtor youre doing yourself a disservice. Her knowledge is incredible and her connections made our first time home buying experience easy. She walked us through everything in detailed. Held our hands through the entire process as we had know clue what to expect buying our first home. Her referrals for inspector (Peter Buss) / broker(Josh Kahn) / attorney (Mike Grabill) took such good care of us. Deb is THE BEST! If you want someone who is a great communicator, reliable, knowledgeable, well connected in the north shore suburbs, and has years of experience.. Deb is your girl!

Deb is by and far the most incredible real estate agent out there. As first time home buyers, the process was nerve-wrecking and confusing, but with Deb we were always at ease. She is extremely responsive despite her busy schedule, and after seeing a few properties together, she understood immediately what we were looking for and would recommend new listings. She is also very knowledgeable about the Northern Suburbs and the real estate market as a whole. However, the most impressive trait is her honesty. When entering a listing, she makes you aware of certain positives and shortcomings of the property immediately, often things that you would not even pick up. When something doesn't sit right, she will let you know and always has her client's best interest at heart. Finding a home with Deb was a wonderful experience, and it will be bittersweet not seeing her on a weekly basis anymore.

It was a pleasure to work with Deb. She was hands on in all aspects of the process. She had experts to improve the appearance of our house in a timely fashion at great prices. She was on top of every phase and made sure that we were constantly informed of what we needed to do. She was very quick to respond to any questions . We would highly recommend her to sell your home.

Deb is by far the best real-estate agent I have worked with. I have moved multiple times and have experience buying and selling homes as a customer. I recently sold my home through Deb and had an AMAZING experience. Deb is very knowledgeable about the market especially in todays environment and knows what it takes to sell your home while maximizing the value for you as the seller. She helped me understand the pros and cons of various selling strategies and guided me to an option that worked best for my needs and timing. She listens to your requirements as a customer and provides options that work for you while ensuring that your goal of selling the home on time for top dollar was met. Working with Deb is like working with the boutique agent as she is with you throughout the entire processes aEUR" from pre-listing to close and every step in between. She always had the time for me. She was a valuable partner giving me sound guidance when needed to help me make the right decisions. She is so easy going and fun to work with and the is a big PLUS!! I could not be more pleased.

It is not often performance exceeds expectations and with Deb my experience was just exceptional. Five stars!!! I originally selected Deb based on a desire to achieve top dollar in a development where some previous sellers had sold below market. Debs sale of a neighbor's property convinced me she could sell the property at a great price. I was looking to achieve a price which would include a comp that would be a stretch. We sold at full list in 5 days. When interviewing Deb, I focused on her view of how and why people buy real estate. I wanted to understand her ability to judge the emotion of the buyer and react accordingly during price negotiations. While other agents in the area highlighted sales results and team size as their value, they didnt provide the aEURoepartnership/hands-onaEUR? feel which I desired. My goal was to avoid an agent who wanted to hook me (contract) and then push down the price. I didnt have time to play games. As it relates to the foundational components Deb provided: aEURc A market analysis which was spot-on and provided the ability to make an informed decision.aEURc Solid advice on preparing for sale, which was honest, direct (needed) and measured.aEURc Excellent staging which totally changed the look and feel of the home. aEURc Marketing material which highlighted the practical and add on features of the home. aEURc I was downsizing, and the additional service provider relationships absolutely saved the day and minimized the sale and moving process. aEURc The use of technology simplified the showing process which supported my challenging schedule If you want to sell your property with an agent who understands the market and provides a hands-on approach hire Deb. Or should I say convince Deb to take your listing. Yes, Deb is good enough to be selective. Thanks Deb and team and best of luck.
