Home closing

I hired Daniel to assist me with purchasing a home based on positive reviews I had read. However, after working with him, I found those reviews to be inaccurate. Initially, he was responsive and communicative in the weeks leading up to the scheduled closing. But once a closing date was set, his respo...nsiveness dropped significantly. My calls went to voicemail, and my messages often weren't answered until the following day. For instance, when I called him on Friday to confirm our closing scheduled for Tuesday at 9 AM, he said it wouldn't happen because he hadn't received the necessary documents, despite everything being approved. When I contacted him again on Monday, he informed me that Tuesday was no longer an option. As I tried to discuss the situation, he became irritated with my questions, even threatening to cancel everything just one day before closing. The closing was eventually rescheduled for two days later, and Daniel initially said he would meet me there, but the next day, he informed me that he wouldn't be attending in person and would handle it remotely instead.

Probate Sale

Dan was vey helpful after my brother passed suddenly with no will and we needed to sell his Palatine condo quickly. Dan helped us find a local realtor and a probate attorney. Then once we had the authority to sell, Dan was instrumental in closing the sale in under three weeks!

Great experience

Daniel Levy made the whole process very smooth for me. I recently purchased my first home, he was patient, understanding, explaining me in details the process. Daniel is very professional, would be always answer in a timely matter, and would fight for his clients. I had a great experience with him,... and highly recommend him if you need to sell or purchase a home.

Outstanding representative for elderly sellers

Dan and his team did a terrific job at taking care of everything in support of my elderly parents (85 and 80 years old) selling their condo. Dan dealt with the buyer and buyer representatives so my parents did not have to do so. He advised us of the specific steps we needed to take to complete the ...sale with our local government as well. Best of all Dan was empathetic and compassionate in dealing with my parents as they needed some guidance to complete the closing; which we did in their new residence. In short Dan was a great seller's attorney and I recommend him highly!

Private Real Estate Transaction

We recently bought a home in a private sale. We purchased the house directly from an estate following the owner's death. Daniel managed the transaction from our side, and worked directly with the seller's attorney. Daniel was knowledgable, professional and prompt in answering all my emails, phone cal...ls and text messages. He was skillful in managing the negotiations and helped us get a lower final purchase price than we expected. He saved us money and made the process as smooth as possible. I would absolutely use his services again.
