Steve led us on our search for a new home in Oak Park. His understanding of the local real estate market and ability to help make the process easier was truly appreciated. In a tough market to be a buyer he gave us many good options and ultimately helped us find the right one.

Steve is amazing. He helped us locate a great place on a tight timeframe and made the transactions smooth and easy. Hes super-responsive, communicates clearly and knows Oak Park, River Forest and Forest Park like the back of his hand. Every referral and piece of advice was spot-on. We hadnt moved in many years, so having an expert to work with was reassuring. We cant recommend him highly enough and wouldnt hesitate to work with him again.

Clearly, Steve has been Oak Park & River Forests #1 Agent year after year for good reason... chiefly, that he is very good at what he does, and at all aspects of what he does (which was just what we needed from a realtor). He walked us through each phase and facet of the sale of our Oak Park home and was always happy to take the time to educate us (or to just make things happen). He was attentive, knowledgeable, available, and tuned in to the difference between little things that were truly little and other little things that could make a big difference. That was precisely the kind of insight we needed and appreciated. The depth and breadth of his experience and his real-time connection to the ebb and flow of the real estate market in our community made our experience as first time sellers so much easier because of the ways he demonstrated time and time again that our trust in him was well placed and that he was going to help us with every aspect of our sale. The visual presentation of our home left our jaws on the floor, ready to buy our own house! The virtual tour he prepared by arranging and editing a drone fly-through of our home left every person who watched it impressed and aware that even in a pandemic, Steve was out in front figuring out how to help our house stand out. At each fork in the road, his counsel was timely and spot on. We will be telling friends, family and anyone else whos interested what we found to be true over and over- youd be hard pressed to find a better realtor to work with than Steve. He gets our highest possible recommendation and if fate ever brings us back to the area, he is the only person we will be calling for assistance!

We interviewed several highly recommended local agents, but from the moment we met Steve, we knew he was "the one". We decided to sell our house during the pandemic, and in our first meeting with Steve, he mentioned he didn't have a crystal ball to predict what would happen in the real estate market in the future. However, I don't think he needs one - his solid knowledge of the OPRF market, expertise, and intuition were all it took sell our house for top dollar in a fraction of the time we expected it to take. We're so grateful for his realistic pricing of our home and confident, steady, no-nonsense guidance from start to close. Thanks to Steve, we ended up with multiple full price offers to choose from within 2 days! He doesn't play games, and we appreciated his honesty and integrity as he walked us through all of the negotiations like a pro. We were so grateful to have him on our side, and we would not hesitate to recommend him again and again.

We couldn't have asked for a better realtor to guide us through the process of both buying and selling in Oak Park than Steve. Though much of our online research indicated we should use different agents to buy and sell, our search for a buyers agent did not produce anyone as prepared, organized, knowledgeable and easy to work with as Steve. We felt we would be cheating ourselves if we went with anyone else.Steves experience in the Oak Park area is absolutely incredible... when looking at properties it seemed there were a scant few that he hadn't either seen or listed before himself. We felt we benefited from his experience both as a realtor in Oak Park and as a father and husband raising his family in the village.Viewing properties with Steve was an education. He took time to systematically go through items we should pay particularly close attention to when viewing a home and would then indicate the implications of what we found for us the prospective buyer. Exclusive of the ends of buying and selling, I felt that what I had learned has improved my fund of knowledge as a homeowner. I'm that much more aware of items that require my attention and maintenance. As a sellers agent, Steve was detail oriented, thorough and accessible. He took care to take us step by step through the process explaining which details and steps were particularly critical and then following up with us to make sure we were on schedule and all items were attended to. His recommendations regarding staging was critical and his photographs were of a professional level quality. Our property showed brilliantly online and we received an offer inside of a week. During our experience with Steve, we had the impression that he was quite busy and in demand. Despite this demand, we never felt forgotten or unattended to. Steve made a point of making time for us and was always prompt when answering emails, phone calls, and requests for meetings. In his communication, he was always clear and concise yet through taking the time to make sure all of our questions were answered and we were satisfied moving forward. As clients, I felt we required a great deal of hand-holding and were perhaps a bit high maintenance. Steve never faltered and treated us with the same care and attention on day one as on the day of closing. We recommend him highly and without reservation.

I happened to find Steve just through a web search and he turned out to be the best realtor in Oak Park! His knowledge of the town is extensive, and his knowledge about older homes is so valuable to know which homes to avoid, which are good and just need cosmetic updates. He was patient, thorough and made himself very available to us for questions, countless showings, and never pressured us to spend more than we wanted. Oh, and he was a great negotiator too! Highly recommend.

Steve couldn't have done better with the sale of our house. His experience in Oak Park clearly brought value to our transaction. We fully recommend Steve as a listing agent.

Steve Scheuring delivered expert, quality, professional support to me during a complex move. I recently relocated to Boise, ID and had to sell my home in Oak Park, after I already moved. Long-distance, Steve provided expert counsel to me at every turn. He is very knowledgeable about Oak Park and how overall Chicagoland market is doing. I highly recommend Steve as a realtor.
