Courtney was fantastic to work with. Very knowledgeable about the market, easy to work with, and easily available to connect when needed. I’d recommend Courtney to anyone looking to buy or sell their home in Chicago.
When my husband and I wanted to find out what we would need to do to buy a home, my friend recommended we contact Courtney. She was responsive and friendly right off the bat and was flexible to meet our scheduling needs. From the first appointment, we knew we made the right choice. She came prepared and walked us through what to expect for the entire home-buying process. My husband and I...
Courtney was so kind and thoughtful and went above and beyond to help us buy our house in Chicago. She always made herself available to answer our questions and always helped us along the way (especially as we had challenging work schedules). It was a pleasure to work with Courtney and we will always consider her our “go-to” realtor in Chicago. Cannot recommend her enough!
We feel incredibly lucky that a friend referred us to Courtney. Starting with the very first meeting, Courtney walked us through every step of the buying process with precision and efficiency. We are very grateful to Courtney for her expertise and recommendations throughout. Thanks for making the home buying process a breeze!
Courtney is wonderful! She guided me through the home buying process seamlessly, and I’m thrilled with my new home. Highly recommend!
Courtney helped us navigate the neighborhoods of Chicago before we settled on the perfect place. Her knowledge and expertise of Chicago condos made the process easy and fun. I would highly recommend Courtney to anyone who is looking for a place in the city.
I purchased with Courtney twice and sold once and would highly recommend. She was very patient as we searched for the perfect home. She took time to highlight points on the MLS that we’re important and I felt like a very educated home buyer. She’s great!
We have worked with Courtney for years - she is extremely organized, trustworthy, reliable and knowledgeable of the chicago market. Also, she’s really kind and funny - cannot recommend her enough!
Courtney is professional, organized and very helpful !
I highly recommend working with Courtney. She represented my husband & I while we searched for our first condo together. She was very informative, helpful, and patient - her years of expertise were clear to us during our entire buying process. We know we’ll be reaching out to Courtney in the future once we’re ready for our next home!
My husband and I had the pleasure of being introduced to Courtney when we moved back to Chicago in 2019. It was a hectic time with changing jobs and moving. She made the experience amazing. Without her attention to detail and experience, we wouldn’t have landed in a good place. Courtney has stayed in touch ever since. We recently decided to sell, to tackle the next phase of life and di...
Courtney is the best in the business! We have bought and sold 3 times with her. I would not do a move without her by my side. Her guidance, expertise, and personal attention make her a trusted partner during big life changes. I would highly recommend partnering with Courtey for any real estate endeavor.
Courtney is an amazing realtor. She is knowledgeable, professional, down to earth and extremely easy to work with. She truly wants you to find exactly the home you’re searching for, while other realtors we’ve worked with in the past have suggested we “settle for good enough”. She has the design knowledge and vision to see the potential a home can have. Courtney not only helped us...
We could not have been more pleased with our experience working with Courtney. She's helped several of our friends and family members find homes that reflect the individual needs of each family, and always gave us that personal interest to make sure that the house we found was perfect. Her insights, keen sense of the market, and local knowledge was a huge help in us finding the place we ...
We reached out to Courtney after multiple neighbors had great success listing their condos with her. She helped us think through whether to rent or sell our condo, always giving honest advice and never pressuring us in any way. When we finally decided to sell, she advised us on what to do and what not to do to maximize the value of our place, and helped us with low-cost staging. She gave...
Courtney is an outstanding realtor. She was thoughtful throughout the entire process of purchasing/selling, and at no point did we feel pressured in any way. She made everything so incredibly easy for us, and was an absolute joy to work with. We have referred her to multiple friends/family and all have had the same response with her. She is an absolute rock star. Highly recommend.
We have been long time clients of Courtney. She first helped me find a rental when I moved to Chicago. Since then, she’s helped us go through buying and leasing properties. She’s been very patient every time, listens to our feedback well and to this day, we still call her for consultation regarding home renovations that would increase property value. We highly recommend working with her!
As a first-time home buyer in 2015, I had many questions and needed significant guidance throughout the process. Courtney made me feel at ease and never diminished my concerns. I felt secure and informed every step of the way. Courtney also took the time to send listings that met all of my demands, streamlining the process and ensuring that our visits were focused only on places that hit...
Courtney was so fun to work with and consistently communicative, responsive and efficient! I would highly recommend working with Courtney to buy or sell a home. Thanks Courtney!!
Courtney is an absolute legend. She helped my fiancé and I find our dream home in Chicago! We couldn’t have done it without her expertise, patience, kindness, support and knowledge. You’d be lucky to have her represent you!
So Courtney was simply stellar and just helped me through the process of buying my first home. I never write reviews because frankly most people don't meet my high standards. Courtney does. She's personable, communicative, a true pro. All of her recommendations from the attorney to the inspector were excellent. I highly recommend!
Courtney was amazing at helping me sell my condo in Chicago and find the perfect new home. She was extremely professionally and always prepared. I liked that she was always open and honest with me. If I sent a property to view that may not have been in the best location or may not have been the best fit for what she knew I wanted she would tell me. I never felt pressured to make a deal. ...
Courtney was superb! We not only bought with Courtney, but we listed our current home with her as well. She was unbelievably responsive, helpful and courteous. We trusted her and knew that she had our best interests in mind. She was honest and never steered us wrong. I would use Courtney again and again and will recommend her to everyone I know. She is fantastic on both sides of a transaction!
We have used Courtney twice for previous moves, and she has been great. She's always super responsive, and she was flexible on maneuvering showings around our hectic work schedules. We love our new place, and we would highly recommend Courtney to others!
Courtney was helping me to find an apartment twice over the last 3 years. Both times my timelines were quite tight and the requirements were extensive (I was looking for ½ bedroom place in the city with parking and long must-have list of amenities). Courtney is very skilled, professional and intuitive - she immediately understood what I was looking for! None of the apartments shown were...
"Let's get real. We all know how awful the rental process is here in Chicago. From Craigslist to Apartments.com, going solo to find the right apartment at the right price at the right time is frustrating and time-consuming. That's where Courtney comes in. Courtney is ah-mazing. After a couple of weeks of frustrating emails and calls with rental properties, I turned to Courtney to help me...
Courtney is awesome. She has always been imminently knowledgeable and responsive and instills a great deal of confidence and ease in what could be a very difficult process. Maybe most noteworthy is that she gets unsolicited high accolades from everyone else in the process, including the brokers and lawyers across the table. She is a great broker.
Courtney Welsch was excellent in guiding us and facilitating the sale of our Chicago West Loop townhouse condominium. She initially assessed our potential offering and quickly provided a thorough comparative study of our market to help us determine our value as we prepared to relocate. I thought I had made appropriate improvements to prepare our unit for market. Courtney re-assessed th...
We were so fortunate to have Courtney as our realtor! Being new to Chicago, we were really overwhelmed about where to begin looking. Courtney is very knowleagable about the different neighborhoods and spend the day driving us around the city to get a better idea of where we wanted to buy. When it came time to place an offer, Courtney was easily accessible and helpful throughout the who...
We couldn't be happier with the service Courtney provided throughout the buying process. She listened to what we were looking for and helped us find a home that met our needs. We were new to Chicago and Courtney took the time to show us around the city and to show us what we could get in a variety of neighborhoods. Her knowledge of neighborhoods throughout the city was impressive. ...
Courtney helped us buy our first home and we could not have been more pleased. She was always upfront and honest in her advice, which due to her experience in the field, was detailed and well-informed. She clearly knows the Chicago market and has been doing this long enough that she's pretty much seen it all. We already knew the general neighborhood we wanted when we started. We also h...
Courtney was great to work with. She displayed great professionalism and made the buying process as easy as possible. Courtney did her homework upfront to get a better idea of the type of property and areas of the city that suited me best. Once we narrowed in on the property I wanted she did a great job of laying out the process from making an offer all the way to closing on the property
Courtney Welsch is a fantastic, unparalleled realtor. She helped me twice - once in 2010 when my condo was unrented for 8 months under another realtor. Courtney got the job done. Last year she helped me sell that condo. She is professional, accessible, and an overall delight.
Courtney was an exceptional agent! She knows a ton about the local market and was able to provide many recommendations. She was very flexible with the changes in location and wants I requested as I was house hunting.
We have used Courtney three times, for two purchases and one sale. We also recommend her to anyone we know buying property in Chicago. Her knowledge and attention to detail make her a pleasure to work with.
She helped us get out of our house very quickly. (As in, listed on Thursday and two offers by Sunday... with an accepted offer by Monday noon!) We had three people come and look at our home, and chose Courtney as she was the person we were most comfortable with, and she didn't disappoint. She gave simple steps to stage our home, and then took care of everything to get it up and on the ma...
My sister, who owned the apt before me, referred me to Courtney. Courtney hops to action with little notice. She is quick to respond and flexibly mobile (meaning "Can I get your keys? Where are you?" And she was at my house in Bucktown within the hour to grab the apt keys.). She has also been creative and helpful with executing documents for my strict management office, using technol...
I have used Courtney as my trusted Realtor in 2 transactions now, once to purchase a home and now to sell a home. I would not consider using any other realtor and in fact, have referred her to several friends and colleagues. I can't think of anything [more she could have done]! It was about 1 month from listing to close, which was incredible!
As a seller from another state I had requirements beyond the perceived normal selling process. Courtney Welsch, agent of Baird & Warner, made the process smooth and easy. I was not onsite during any of the preparations for the property to sell. All expectations were exceeded. If you are in the market the only choice is Courtney Welsch!
Courtney did a great job filtering places she felt I would be interested in. After seeing several places she knew the style of place I was looking for. Because there was not a lot of inventory on the market she was very clear that we would need to act quickly on some properties if they were the one. My experience working with Courtney was very positive both as a seller ...
Courtney was outstanding in managing the completion of a number of small to medium improvement tasks that were required for the optimum sale of my residence which I did not complete myself prior to leaving Chicago due to employment. Courtney's total management of those issues was way above and beyond what I expected an agent to provide. She was outstanding with this work ...
My experience with Courtney has been outstanding. She always had a good sense when someone was serious about the property I sold. She was great at providing feedback to me about some things I needed to get worked out with my building's property management company. I do not believe there was anything you could have done to make things go more smoothly. We had two buyers sign contracts...
Everything went very well! Courtney provided excellent real estate services during our sale. It was a smooth process from beginning to end. I would definitely recommend Courtney to a friend or family member in the future!

Courtney was thorough and quick, which is exactly what we needed considering our time crunch to move across the country! She made it happen better than we could have hoped! It was seamless.

Courtney was a real blessing throughout this process and took care of everything in a professional manner. She was always on top of our issues, provided honest feedback, answered questions whenever we had them, and brought an air of calm during what is a generally stressful process. We couldn't have been more pleased with our experience.

Courtney was a pleasure to work with during the sale of my townhouse. She made it as easy as possible considering my family had already relocated to Washington State during the listing and selling process. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an agent. I will absolutely remember Courtney and recommend her unequivocally.

Courtney was a great help all along the way. Specifically, she was able to give us a rough sense of what would be required for the house during each showing. As first time buyers, that was really helpful! She was on top of things keeping track of all the bits and pieces during the process and had creative solutions to issues which popped up along the way which was really helpful. It was ...

Courtney is an excellent representative of B&W. She is thorough and complete and does an excellent job of keeping the seller informed as to the status of the selling process.
Courtney was FANTASTIC. She found us exactly what we were looking for.
Courtney was extremely efficient and effective, helping me on very short notice match a list of very hard-to-find qualities in an apartment...twice! Can't say enough about her. Can't say there is anything to improve, Courtney was fantastic.
This was our first time selling and buying simultaneously, but Courtney was very patient and thorough explaining the process and helping us get into a home and neighborhood we really love. I've recommended Courtney to friends in the past and will continue to do so.
Being a first time homebuyer I was very anxious about the whole process. Courtney had a great personality and was excellent about getting me comfortable about going out to view properties. Although we had quite a few hiccups through the process as a result of other parties, Courtney still continued to keep a positive attitude and helped assure me until the very end. I could not be happie...
Courtney has the ability to assess her buyer’s needs and provide an appropriate portfolio of available real estate. In our case,she took our vague descriptions of what we were looking for,and showed us places that not only met all of our criteria, but covered things we hadn’t even considered. We thought we knew what we needed in a home, but knew little about the city’s neighborhood...

I recently sold my house with Courtney Welsch as our agent. I would like to let you know how very impressed my husband and I were with her work.
