Kate found me the best apartment situation I have ever found since I have been living in Chicago which is basically my entire life she was relentless in going for me since I am disabled so that we didn’t waste time seeing if the stair situation would be too much for me to waste my time looking at the apartments she went above and beyond every single way someone can.

Kate was great to work with! We were on a very short trip to find an apartment. Kate found only places to see that fit all my requirements. She was very honest about her knowledge of the neighborhoods and her thoughts about whether the property was a good one or not. She never tried to pressure us into considering something we didn’t like. When our first day produced no leads, she quickly put together another list of possibilities for day two which was a success! She was extremely prompt in returning all emails and text messages, and she continued to help us through the final steps of the lease and setting up utilities. We plan to work with Kate again in the future!

Kate was very helpful in the apartment-finding process. I had a very short time period to find something and she put together a list using criteria we had discussed and handled setting up all of the showings. It was a lot easier than having to do it on my own. She also went above and beyond and drove us around to each location eliminating the need to wait for an Uber and allowing us to view more apartments in a short period of time.

Kate was amazing. Knew exactly what I wanted and was able to target an area that I wasn’t even aware would be a perfect fit. The process was simple and quick, it was a week from the first email exchange to me signing a lease on my dream apartment. Kate is awesome!!

Kate was working on my behalf. She was a no-nonsense assistant in finding the home that we wanted on (actually under) budget and within a tight timeframe. She even worked us through the beginning of the COVID outbreak. She was listening to what we were saying and what we weren’t saying. She was honest about the properties she showed us and was helpful in considering things that we hadn’t even thought of. One outstanding example: We’d seen 9 houses and didn’t find what we were looking for. At the end of the 9th house visit, we sat on the stoop with Kate and explained that we wanted to change our search a bit. Within an hour, we had 8 new houses to consider! She was just OUTSTANDING!

Dear Kate: Thank you for assisting us with the sale of our property. You are courteous, helpful, and attentive. Our phone calls, emails, and questions were answered promptly. We were very pleased with the service you provided from the time of listing to the time of closing. You did a super job!

Debra, Kate, and the entire team were very responsive to our needs and those of our tenants. Always showed our property in a professional timely manner.

Thank you, Kate! You’re great. You are a five-star realtor! I really appreciate all your time and efforts!

I worked with Debra Dobbs and her team to both purchase and sell my condo, and had wonderful experiences! In selling, I worked with Kate Penkova who was very kind, helpful, communicative, and very timely with both replies and appointments. They all made the process easy!

Kate helped me buy my new condo in South Loop. Not only is she thorough with the process, but she also made sure to walk me through every step towards the closing. She was on top of every detail and coordinated the communication between every party involved. Extremely patient and calm .. always ready to help when you need her. She was prompt in answering text messages & emails even at odd hours. She made sure that I remembered the deadlines and was prepared for all the paperwork and financial matters. I wish her all the best and would strongly recommend her
