Client testimonials & reviews

Patricia did an amazing job for us...
Patricia did an amazing job for us this year on the buy and sell side of our move in Lake Forest. We were very impressed with her ability to navigate sensitive situations, her technical prowess, and great sense of the market. Patricia’s keen insights and advice on purchase price, and in particular on selling price, integrated a palpable mix of market intelligence and experience. Whether you are selling your home or looking to buy, we can highly recommend Patricia based on our experience with her.

Thanks again...
You have been more than fabulous this entire time, and have really made the process enjoyable (when I'm sure it wasn't the case for everyone…lol!). We have genuinely appreciated your honesty, integrity, and company.

--Becky & Matt W
Your service was fantastic!
Thank you very much for helping us over one year to find us the perfect home! We really appreciate how you are knowledgeable, experienced, patient, nice and fun! We enjoyed seeing many houses with you, and with your great advice we were comfortably able to make the right decision.
A successful closing...
"Can't thank you enough for all you did. I will be sure to let anyone I
talk to know what a great realtor you are!!!"

--Patricia M.
Your advice was invaluable and right on...
"I wanted to take a moment to thank you for representing us in the sale of our home. We really appreciate the time that you took with us in helping us to prepare our home for sale. Your advice was invaluable and right on. You put a great deal of effort into marketing our home and putting us in front of prospective buyers that ended up paying off in the end. Pat, you went the extra mile in all facets of the time we worked together. I highly recommend you to anyone looking for a real estate professional and look forward to working with you again. All the best to you in the future."
--Ted K.
Patricia knew what we wanted...
"Pat Carter was a fabulous agent for us. She knew what we wanted, didn't waste our time showing us houses that were not what we were looking for, and gave us honest opinions when asked which helped us as neophytes in the real estate world. As the agent representing the house we were selling, she aggressively promoted it while respecting the impact it might have on our daily life. She was so easy to work with. You felt like you had her whole attention at all times, no matter how many other clients she might working with too. Would highly recommend her."
--A.F.
