      I am so grateful to have worked with Frankie during the condo-purchasing process! Frankie is knowledgeable, trustworthy, honest, and only wanted what was best for us. When we had questions or found places to tour, Frankie was always quick to respond and schedule viewings. He also found us many places which fit all of our needs, and was flexible as our wants for a home evolved throughout the process. On multiple occasions during showings, we bumped into other agents who were delighted to see Frankie which shows just how respected and well-liked he is in the industry. We expected a lot of stress during the process, but Frankie's positivity, empathy and professionalism always put us at ease. In addition, his knowledge of the Chicago market was key for us to ensure we submitted a strong offer and ultimately lead to us securing our dream home at a price we felt comfortable with. I have already recommended Frankie to other friends and family, and I will do so for everyone I know that is looking to buy in Chicago. Thank you so much Frankie!

      Frankie was fabulous! From start to finish, Frankie was able to put "my mind at ease" when selling my condo in a very timely manner! His professionalism, knowledge, and responsiveness were exactly what I needed!

      We could not have asked for a better realtor thank Frankie. We first worked with Frankie about 3 years ago to find the rental apartment of our dreams, and working with him for our first home-buying experience was a no-brainer. As a first timer, there are so many questions that need answering, and Frankie was always helpful and willing to answer any and all questions. He was fast with responding, advocated for us during the process, and connected us with wonderful lenders, lawyers and local contractors during the process. We found our dream property, went under contract, and closed in less than four weeks, and he was there to guide us along the way. I would recommend Frankie to anyone in Chicago or looking to relocate in a second.

      Frankie was incredibly responsive 24/7 for the 3-4 weeks we worked with him. In that time, he found us an extensive list of amazing properties, even in one of the slower times of year in terms of open inventory. We ended up signing a lease for an incredibly spacious Frankie found us for a fair price. If you need a place in Chicago, I don't see a reason to go with anyone else.

      My fiance and I were extremely lucky to have found Frankie during out relocation process. We were moving from California to Chicago and couldn't be there in person for tours. Frankie went above and beyond for our home search by touring countless places for us, sending us detailed videos and photos, and guiding us through the Chicago market. He's extremely responsive, has a ton of knowledge about the Chicago area, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I would definitely recommend Frankie to anyone that is in the market for a new home!

      Frankie helped me get my place quickly and for an incredible deal! He helped me find a spot in a few weeks and negotiated a quick close for me. He also recommended a wonderful contractor who helped me renovate my condo. He's fast, reliable and fun to work with. Thanks again!

      My boyfriend and I were moving from Charleston, SC to Old Town, Chicago, and Frankie made what could’ve been a super stressful process feel surprisingly easy. He was incredibly responsive over text — answering all of my (many) questions and even sending us a personalized video tour since we couldn’t see the apartment in person.He clearly knows the Chicago rental market well and made us feel confident navigating everything from a distance. We felt really taken care of, and we’re so grateful for his help in finding a place that we truly love.If you’re moving from out of state or just need someone who’s reliable and communicative, we highly recommend working with Frankie!
