Great Experience on the Buyer and Seller Sides

Don & his team were great to work with for our home purchase and subsequently on the seller side when we then sold our condo. They were responsive, incredibly helpful and made the process so easy for us - they explained everything we needed to know, answered our questions and ensured both transaction...s went smoothly. Highly reccomend Don and his team!

They get the job done!

Donald Hyun Kiolbassa and his team are so efficient, quick to respond and answered any questions I may have had. They made the entire closing process on our new home effortless...even without physically being present at the closing table because of the COVID-19 pandemic! We requested (last minute) to... push our closing date up and they worked so hard to get it done!

Closing on Real Estate in difficult times

We decided to buy a property during the Covid crisis and Don and his team were fabulous taking us through changing procedures, all remotely, never able to meet us in person. The para-legal we worked with was super responsive and approachable for the smallest of questions. He represented us well in ne...gotiations, helped keep our interests first.

An excellent lawyer for first-time buyers

Don and his team were recommended to me by my realtor and I couldn't be happier with how the entire home buying process went. As a first-time buyer, I had many questions and required a lot of guidance, but Don and his team were quick to respond with a no problem every time. My closing was impacted by... COVID-19, but the team rolled with the changes and were able to complete the closing easily over the phone.

Highly recommend: Professional, ease of doing business, & perfect execution

Donald & his team first helped me close on a condo purchase in Chicago (2018). There was one major hurdle at the closing, as a result of events outside my or their control or scope. They worked through each problem efficiently, effectively, & always communicated what steps they were taking. It was gr...eat to have a team with that skill level and confidence on my side, for what otherwise could have been a less than desirable outcome. Don & the team also seamlessly executed a sell-side property transaction for me in 2020. Again, their professionalism, organization, & communication resulted in a perfect experience. They will continue to me my preferred choice for real estate transactions & more.
