Testimonials

"I worked with Jim Barclay in buying my first condo in Roscoe Village. Jim was always available and took the extra time to explain every step along the way. I always felt like I had someone in my corner and he made the process manageable with my hectic schedule. I would recommend anyone looking to buy in Chicago to give Jim a call. Thanks Jim! Nate Adams, Roscoe Village"

"Jim just helped us purchase our first home and we honestly could not be happier. He is extremely helpful. If I EVER had a question, I could either give him a call or shoot him an email and he would always respond within the day. I even recall a very important question I sent to him where he responded in 15 minutes! I really believe he just cares about the people he works with and he wants to help them in any way he can. He also knows other great people in the real estate industry. All of the people he referred us to were great people to work with and were very professional. He really helped us nail down what we were looking for in our first home and kept us on track while we were looking. I found that after looking at a few places that didn't quite have all of the qualities we were looking for, I began to compromise. Jim gave us a friendly nudge and reminded us of what we had initially said we wanted in our first home. He was able to keep us focused on what we were really looking for and was able to get us into a place that we love! Matt H., Lakeview"

"Jim was great every step of the way, from listening to my needs (trust me there were many), to guiding me through the process with ease. I believe this process "flowed" so easily because of his experience in the business and his ability to negotiate. He helped me get exactly what I wanted and I couldn't be happier with my experience. Keri, West Loop"

"Overall experience was good. James was very easy to work with and knowledgeable about the entire process. He assisted us in making a reasonable offer and closing the deal. Sometimes we felt that he wasn't necessarily following our guidance on the properties we were suggesting and just sticking to the MLS survey. That is common though from what we have found. Thanks again for your help! "

"Given the complete plethora of agents you can choose from in Chicago I ended up trusting Yelp's reviews and going with Jim, and boy was everyone else spot on with their recommendations. Jim is genuinely honest and forthcoming at all times. Better yet, he listens to what you are looking for, looks for relevant listings, and lets you make decisions for yourself. I was surprised that we walked into several units and he pointed out multiple negative things that I wasn't even thinking about. It never felt like he was trying to force anything on me while we looked at units. He was always constructive in pointing out the strengths and weaknesses of a unit and could tell that he really does care that the unit you buy will be perfect for you. I also purchased a short-sale that took several months to close on due to issues negotiating with the bank. At one point my attorney wasn't able to get a response out of the agent at the bank for several weeks and was worried the deal wouldn't happen. On Jim's own initiative, he called the bank, managed to get a hold of the agent, and conferenced my attorney in to resolve the issue at hand to keep everything moving. You really can't go wrong with Jim. If you haven't decided on a realtor yet, do yourself a favor and call him. Rob Ritchie, Ravenswood"
