I have been working with Erik for over 10 years and every time I need him for myself or someone I know, he just amazes me at the professionalism and knowledge he has and continues to grow as a person and leader for his team. He is always on top of everything regarding the transaction. I would highly recommend him and have numerous time over.

I had a wonderful experience with Erik. Hes an experienced Realtor who helped guide me through my complicated virtual closing as I was in another state due to Covid. This was my first real estate purchase and Erik assisted me on the location, financial ins and outs, who my lawyer should be (whom Id also recommend), and walked me through the whole process with my bank and title company. He made me feel comfortable closing on a property from another state through this troubled Covid era, Id highly recommend his experienced services to anyone looking to purchase any real estate.

From the very first meeting with Erik, we knew we were working with a top level professional. As first time buyers, we feared we had many fears & an overwhelming plethora of questions surrounding this experience - but, he quickly put those worries to rest & was essentially a walking encyclopedia; explaining everything in great detail, every step of the way. His level of knowledge regarding the handful of communities we were looking at, definitely came in handy when helping paint the picture of what our new lives would look like & definitely helped shape our evolved search requirements. We couldn't be happier with our new home & investment in our future. It's clear why Erik Gimbel came so highly recommended to our family; extremely professional, yet personable & a true expert at his trade. We consider ourselves lucky to have worked with the Best Realtor in the North Shore, Chicago, & Chicagoland!

Erik helped us buy and sell our home within a 5 year period. During the purchasing process, he helped us with showings and with the full process, we were very happy with our home purchase. During the selling process, which happened during the early stages of the coronavirus outbreak, he helped us with several hiccups in the process, and we were successful in selling our home and maximizing the value of our home and all the updates we made to it. Overall, we were very happy with Erik. Thanks Erik!
