Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 October 2014
“Tony helped us in the purchase of our new home. What was to be a "stressful" experience, turned out to be quite exciting and enjoyable. Tony not only educated us on the whole experience, but made us feel like our best interests were his first priority.”
Eileen Kenah- Keller Williams Experience
Real Estate Agents in Oak Forest, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 January 2014
“We worked with Eileen on both the sale of our old home and the purchase of our new home. Throughout the process, Eileen was there every step of the way. She always answered every call or email no matter what time of day or night it was. Her professionalism, market knowledge, honesty, and hard work ethic are much respected and appreciated. Eileen was very conscientious of our needs as we looked for a new home and we could not be happier with our experience! We consider Eileen a friend and would highly recommend her to anyone that is searching for a new home or looking to sell their current home.”
Leslie Glazier @ Properties
Real Estate Agents in Oak Forest, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 September 2013
“Leslie has helped me both sell my home & purchase a new home - and now we are gearing up to list our current home. The process with Leslie is seamless. She sold our last home without it even being listed - just through her vast contacts! She knew how to price and market it! The same goes for our home that we previously purchased - she found it for us before it went on the market. Leslie has superior knowledge of the real estate market & her connections were priceless. Beyond this, she is kind, honest & attentive. I simply can't recommend her enough!”
The MG Group
Real Estate Agents in Oak Forest, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 January 2015
“We had a TOUGH condo to sell, and we were remote sellers. We were upfront that we would need a lot of support, and they didn't even hesitate. Then Mario and his group went WAY above and beyond to get this condo sold - from stagers to repairmen, his team was on top of a lot of moving parts, and they made it work, because the condo closed yesterday for an excellent price - all without us ever setting foot in the city. I cannot recommend this team highly enough - they really came through for us, and it was a long haul: one sale fell through the day before closing, and his team just got right back at it and had it back under contract very quickly. I am so glad that we had Mario's team on our side, because I don't think we would have gotten such an amazing result with anyone else.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 April 2013
“Kathy is a great agent! She helped me with a short sale 2 years ago. She was always only a phone call or email away. I have recommended Kathy Dames to many of my friends and family and will definately have Kathy as my agent for my future home purchases. Kathy and her team truly are experts in the real estate profession!”
Steele Consulting Group
Real Estate Agents in Oak Forest, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 September 2013
“Hasani and his group has helped my husband and I on three separate occasions though we have not yet become official clients. He has answered our questions and given us insightful guidance on how we should approach our next housing move. He has put us into contact with knowledgeable people who have also helped us to address our needs and concerns. If he has done this much for us before we become clients, we can only imagine how helpful he will be when we do.”

“Karen Biazar, in our business relationship going back four years, has earned the trust and respect of my husband and myself. She is exceptionally proficient and knowledgeable in real estate market. She, along with another agent in the North Clybourn Group, Tim Gens, will always be our go-to realtors.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 March 2022
“Alex, Jaime and crew did an amazing job at selling my home. It wasn't even on the market for 24 hours and we had 2 offers. They helped make the whole transaction smooth! I will be recommending them to all my friends and family.”
Lida Downey Real Estate & Interiors, LLC
Real Estate Agents in Oak Forest, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 May 2021
“A real partner in the purchasing process, from listening to all our requirements (and not trying to talking us out of any), walking us through a manageable number of comparable properties, smoothly handling every detail when we finally found our dream home, to securing a better deal than we ever expected. Could not have done this without her! And I don't just mean by ourselves (ha!) but with anyone else we've ever worked with. Lida is a true professional and we're grateful we got to work with her before everyone else figures out how good she is.”

A property sale in Oak Forest, IL can be a tense, thrilling, and exhausting experience - often all at once! One thing you can be sure of, a successful home purchase or sale nearly always starts with a good real estate agent or broker.

Real Estate is a complex and dynamic area of work that demands experts to stay informed about rules and regulations as well as the Oak Forest, IL market. As you can imagine, agents and brokers vary as much as the properties they sell. You'll need to be as savvy in selecting a realtor as they are in getting you the best price.

What Does an Agent or Broker Do?


Although the terms “agent” and “broker” often are used interchangeably, they’re not the same thing. Generally, a broker must have more specialised education as well as licensing, and as a result is legally authorised to execute a real estate transaction. Brokers usually play a more administrative role in the real estate process. An agent, by contrast, is a salesperson hired by a broker to interact with and handle the legwork for the clients.

When you're looking to buy a home, a buyer’s agent represents a home buyer or seller in a real estate transaction. A buyer’s agent will find Oak Forest property listings that match your needs, works with the seller’s agent to schedule showings and accompanies you on visits to tour the home. If you’re interested in the house, the agent handles price negotiations and other terms of the sale, and coordinates the appropriate paperwork.

If you are engaged in a home sale, a seller’s agent will help you determine a listing price for an Oak Forest, IL property and can suggest repairs, upgrades and staging ideas to boost the home’s appeal. He or she is in charge of marketing the house to prospective buyers and other agents through signage, websites, print ads, open houses and other methods. As with a buyer’s agent, a seller’s agent represents you in negotiating the sale.

Questions to ask a prospective agent or broker:


  • How long have you been in the business?
  • How long have you worked in this area?
  • Do you work full time or part time in this business?
  • Do you represent buyers or sellers exclusively, or both?
  • What are your professional affiliations?
  • For sellers: How will you market my home?
  • For buyers: How will you find homes that might interest me?
  • Have you had recent sales in the neighborhoods that I might interested in?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • What license(s) do you have?
  • How do you charge?
  • What do your services include?
  • Will I be working with anyone else?
