Michael was great! He listened to our needs and delivered us a great home! Very professional. His knowledge of the area helped us focus in on the perfect neighborhood. Our kids will have great schools and we are within walking distance of the downtown area and Metra.

The Michael Thornton Team @ Compass provided our family with exception support through the difficult sale of our mother's home. They were patient from the start, providing us with guidance on all the details and making us feel confident in their abilities from our first meeting. Michael's real estate expertise gave us the ability to rely on his recommendations which lead to the sale of our home being much more profitable and smooth than we ever anticipated. He and his team lead us through the process, guided us on staging well in advance to give us time to prep before they came and added their own touches before photography. They went above and beyond to make sure we were feeling good throughout the process. Their knowledge, availability and patience made us feel like we were their only client. We 100% will be using their team in the future and recommending to anyone in the area. We couldn't be happier with the outcome!

We were blown away again with Michael and his team. They really went the extra mile helping us get our home ready to sell and getting us the best offer we could. We have worked with Michael on both the buying and selling side and cannot recommend him highly enough.They are professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and make you feel like your property is their top priority all of the time.

Michael and his team did a tremendous job throughout the whole process of selling our home. They helped us understand the market, what to expect, staging the house, and guide us through important decisions. They are always around to answer the many random questions that come up, and made the stressful selling process as easy as it could go! Highly recommended!
