Evan was a hardworking, diligent, and easygoing agent. He was excellent with communication and made me feel comfortable enough that I could text/email/call him whenever something came up. The first time we met him, we were late to the showing for 20 minutes and he did not say a single word about it. Thats when we decided to choose him as our agent. He was consistently nice and welcoming, told us his honest opinions about the places we saw together, and made the effort to befriend his clients instead of aEURoejust doing businessaEUR?. Thank you Evan for making the process easy and fun!

We worked with Evan to find a condominium in Evanston and had an excellent experience with him. He was knowledgeable and service oriented. He gave us good, honest reactions to the properties we looked at and to pricing issues. He was not at all hard sell. In fact, he didn't sell us at all on any individual property, but let us make our own decisions free of any pressure whatsoever. He referred us to a good lawyer. He helped facilitate a perfectly smooth closing and our assumption of possession. And he was always available. We could not have asked for better service from an agent.

Evan was amazing to work with. If youre looking to buy a home, hes your guy. We contacted him on a Sunday and by the end of the day, he helped us get pre-approved and put in an offer for the home we ended up buying. Hes incredibly knowledgeable, enthusiastic and passionate about his work. Highly recommend!!

Evan was fantastic! My husband and I were first-time homebuyers and inexperienced in the process. From day 1, Evan was there to make us feel comfortable and informed about every step. His knowledge of the Chicago real estate market was a huge plus for us. His recommendations for homes were all tailored to our wish list, and allowed us to explore great neighborhoods and see great properties. His knowledge of the actual structure of homes was a huge plus too, as he was able to note structural aspects of the property that my husband and I both likely would have overlooked.In the end, we got the home of our dreams at the price we wanted, and Evan was instrumental in that process. If we ever re-locate, we'd utilize his services again in a heartbeat, and I'd recommend him to anyone I know. Thanks for being such a cool guy, Evan, and thanks for guiding us through this process that would have been a real struggle without your assistance.

My husband and I needed someone who understood our needs, who was communicative, and who could provide guidance as this was our first time buying. Evan Smeenge was incredibly warm and attentive from our first meeting, and was available to us throughout the process for questions. His thorough knowledge of the process and of the current market made finding and purchasing our house possible, and even enjoyable!Evan Smeenge not only has an incredible amount of knowledge, but brought on an extraordinary team including the property inspector and lawyer. His recommendations for negotiating price and terms of purchase were extremely savvy, and I believe our offer was accepted because of Evan's recommendation. He has been consistent with excellent guidance and counsel at every step.I would recommend Evan to absolutely anyone looking to buy in the Chicagoland area.

Evan was very knowledgeable about every step the home buying process. He helped make sure things went smoothly at a time when the housing market is quite intimidating and chaotic. At every crucial step of the home buying process from start to finish, Evan shined when it mattered most. He was able to keep things going to meet the deadlines for a 30 day close, which was phenomenal !

Evan was extraordinary in his work. He was always there to make appointments asap and his knowledge and support throughout the entire process were incredible to have. We bought our home during an insane time in the market but he schedule appointments and viewing asap. We found our dream home and after a month of living in our new home, he found everything we had asked for in a home and beyond. I would recommend Evan to family and friends, it was our first time buying a home and I'm so glad we had Evan on our side. He also helped sell my mother in laws home, we listen to his advice and sold the house quickly, previously the house had been on the market without being able to sell for a year. - Diana

Evan was referred to me by a colleague and I couldn't have been in better hands. Evan held my hand, as a first time homeowner, throughout the home buying process for several months during the pandemic. He was above and beyond responsive, honest and eager to get the best outcome for me. Would definitely recommend him to others and will be sure to use him years down the line when I end up selling my property.

Evan works extremely hard, is responsive, thorough, and never afraid to engage and discuss details on my behalf no matter how big or small the detail. He's a new realtor so I gave average reviews on experience: with his attitude and desire to learn I expect that to change quickly over time. He is also endlessly patient with me, which says a lot because I would consider myself one of the most difficult of clients (my response to "what are you looking for" is usually "A killer place at a great price" and find it nearly impossible to get more specific beyond that).
