Words can't express how AMAZING Kim is!! I'm a first time buyer, so needless to say, I was a bit overwhelmed at times. She was patient with me and explained everything I needed to know. Sometimes multiple times. She never made me feel judged for being nervous and anxious. She helped me get set up with the app so I could look at homes, sometimes before they even hit the open market. She w...

Kim was AMAZING! We were moving to Illinois from Idaho and were already under contract with the house we were selling. We’d had bad experiences with a few other realtors we’d tried but Kim took in the challenge of not only an out-of-state buyer, but ones using a VA loan that so many were scared of. She ran all over and toured houses for us, wrote up offers, and finally helped us secu...

When we listed our home for sale with Kim, she supported us before, during, and after the process. We definitely underestimated how emotional and physical selling a home and moving can be, but with Kim on our side, it made things a bit easier. Kim's friendly and positive personality was comforting, and her professionalism was superior; we would recommend her for your real estate needs.

We have bought and sold many homes over the years. Kim is , without question , the best and most dedicated professional we have ever encountered. To say that Kim went over and above for us would be an understatement. Aside from her technical expertise she was incredibly sensitive to our particular personal needs. We were very lucky to have had Kim guide us thru this process.

Kim was an outstanding partner for a the sale and purchase of our homes. She was terrific with timely communication throughout the process, and a great ear for listening to our laundry list of needs. She was truly the right realtor for our complex situation and it went off without a hitch. Can't recommend her enough; not only a great realtor but a great person!

We had a wonderful experience with Kim. As first time buyers she really helped us navigate the whole process and made it low stress and enjoyable. She is so knowledgeable about the area. She was able to help us identify the perfect neighborhood and house for our growing family! We would recommend her to anyone looking to buy/sell!

Kim worked with us to purchase our first SFH in 2023. It took us about 6 months to find and close on a place, and our search was all over the Chicagoland suburbs. Kim was always available and always on time no matter the location. Often, she would ask the listing agent questions we didn't think to ask, or have helpful comments on aspects of the house. Our accepted offer included a rentba...

Kim helped guide me through the process of selling and buying a new home in this crazy real estate market. To say that I am thankful for her knowledge and expertise over the past few months would be an understatement. Kim is professional, reliable and trustworthy. There was never a moment when I felt like she didn't have my best interest at heart. She was always on top of things and work...

Kim was able to expertly navigate a changing market for us last year as we sold four houses and bought one. Every sale and purchase was different, but Kim was a true professional and we knew she would understand each challenge that came our way. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable agent.

I have worked with Kim to buy and sell my first home, and I don’t have the room to say all the amazing things about her! She is an incredible realtor and human, very much a salt of the earth type of person. She is very communicative, friendly, and knowledgeable in all aspects of buying and selling. She went above and beyond in helping us navigate the challenges that come with moving ac...

We used Kim’s services twice in the past 3 years and have been impressed with her knowledge and professionalism. We would recommend her to anyone in the market to buy/sell.

We can't say enough good things about our experience with Kim in selling our home of 32 years. As we moved out of town, she helped us coordinate with contractors repairing the home, find a lawn service, dispose of left-behind belongings, etc. All this on top of the "normal" realtor services involved in selling: photography, advertising, showings, navigating offers, etc. Her estimate of t...

As first time homebuyers, my fiance and I knew absolutely nothing about how to buy a house. Kim was always very kind and patient and answered every question we had and even provided information that we would have never even have know to ask.She stood by us in this insane housing market and helped us find our perfect first home. As long as she's in real estate Kim will always be who I go ...

Extremely professional and easy to talk to. After going through multiple different realtors who couldn’t make time for us, Kim was there. She was willing to work with our difficult schedule and get us into the showings we requested. Her knowledge and experience was fantastic. She was able to answer any and all questions we had from start to finish. We would absolutely do business with her again!

Kim is an amazing realtor and goes above and beyond. She is honest, personable and was there to walk me through the process and answer all my questions. Kim works for you to get your house sold. My house sold in 3 days! Thank you Kim!

I am not a social media guy, but when I feel that someone needs to be recognized for their professionalism, attitude and their kindness, I find a way to let people know. Kim is that person. She has helped our family for years. If someone were to ask me to narrow it down to just 2 or 3 things that makes her special, this would be my list: 1- Patience. She is never pushy. Her favorite quot...

We started working with Kim when we were looking at homes for sale. Then, over the course of a year, the pandemic, and family illnesses, that evolved into selling our house after a decision to move out of state. Kim was wonderful and responsive the entire time. Any time we talked to her about our concerns, she was reassuring, but realistic. We ended up being out of town when our house cl...

Kim is an exceptional realtor and human being. I needed to sell the home of a relative who had passed away, and I expected it to be difficult since I don't live in Illinois. But then I met Kim, and she went above and beyond. She was very understanding of the situation, and she worked professionally and with compassion. And the most important thing--she brought in multiple offers on the h...

Kim is a great realtor she guided us thru all the step to make selling our house easily. She really had our back

Honestly Kim is the greatest. That is the reason why after selling my house about 5 years ago and when I was looking to purchase a new home, I already knew who to call. She was there to walk me through the process and took time to answer any question I had, however random. I cannot recommend her enough to friends and family or anyone reading this. You will not regret having Kim as your r...

Kim is a one-of-a-kind realtor. When illness required my wife and I to move her sister from Algonquin, IL to St. Paul, MN the task seemed overwhelming. It's 400 miles from place to place and we thought we'd be on the road back and forth taking care of all sorts of mind numbing details. But Kim took charge from day one. She figured out what needed to be done and got the house in selling c...

Very Good, exceptionality responsive and lots of experience to help with important decisions.

I was a first time home buyer and Kim exceeded all my expectations and put my worries at ease! She explained everything to me in detail and held my hand through every step of the process. She was knowledgeable, thorough, thoughtful, and communicative. I would highly recommend her to any one looking for a great realtor!

Kim was great throughout the whole process. We knew we were going to be selling our house in about 18 months and she helped us make all the right upgrades in and outside the house. Once it was time to get the house listed and sold, everything went off without a hitch. The process could not have been smoother.

Kim helped me find my perfect home a month ago. She was very attentive, personable, and available for all of my questions. I would happily recommend her to all of my friends, and family. I wish I could give her more stars! Thanks again Kim!

Kim is amazing and put together a wonderful package to present my home. I used her on another property as well and both listings went quickly and at asking price. She listed them spot on! I was not in the market to sell my primary residence just yet but she convinced me to do so and I am glad I did. I highly recommend Kim and her team.

I honestly can’t imagine going through this process without Kim Kern. When I knew I was ready to sell my townhome and move into a single family home, my first thought was Kim. She’s knowledgeable, empathetic, responsive...Kim is all the things. I joked that she was like a therapist but this market is like no other, and Kim held my hand, had my back and was a trusted advisor through t...

We met with Kim Kern for the first time on a Monday evening in our home. We had prepared our home, so we believed it was ready to sell. Kim walked through our home with us and made one suggestion, which we immediately updated according to her suggestion. We had no idea what price we should ask for our home, but Kim guided us through that step as well. She first informed the realtors in o...

Very helpful, patient, goes above and beyond the call of duty.You can trust Kim will guide you in the right direction and make you feel comfortable in the buying and selling of your real estate.

Kim was excellent to work with. She always kept our needs at top of mind and helped guide us through the entire process. Highly recommend working with her!

I initially met with Kim to sell my previous house. After I was approached about renting it instead, Kim didn't miss a beat in helping me search for my next dream home. She was adaptable and was able to quickly navigate home buying during Covid-19 quarantine. She encouraged me not to settle and once we found the perfect home, she moved quickly to ensure that I beat other potential offers...

We purchased two homes and sold one with Kim as our realtor. We appreciate her professionalism, expertise, & advice with each one to make the process as painless as possible! She is great with regard to communication and knows the area well. She is very highly recommended!

Great transaction! Kim handled everything from start to finish. Very easy process and quick sell

Kim is a top-rated professional, which is hard to find. We were lucky meeting & working with her. At the time of purchase, we were newbies in terms of the main things to know/watch when buying a house, nothing to say about procedures. Kim helped us a lot with guides, tips, advises & visions; also, she was always in the loop with us up to the closing. What I have found helpful is that Kim...

Kim is everything you want in a realtor: knowledgeable and honest. I am a single mom and Kim helped me and my five-year-old son get our dream home. I didn’t know exactly what I wanted, just what I didn’t want. Kim never made me feel like I was wasting her time while I looked at tons of houses all the way from St. Charles to Crystal Lake. What I appreciate about Kim is that she always...

Can't say enough good about Kim and her team. They took over selling our house after six months with another company that didn't do much more than make brochures and put a sign in our yard. After meeting and hiring Kim we knew right away things would change. she took charge and marketed our house with creative ideas. Within a week we had a contract. It really makes a difference which rea...

Kim helped us find our new home and she was great every step of the way.

My fiance and I happened to stumble upon Kim when beginning our search for our first home. As first-time home-buyers, we did not initially have a super clear idea of what we were looking for. Kim was incredibly informative and patient with us (and I'm sure it wasn't easy at times!). She put in  lots of effort to help us understand what we were looking for, and also get a clear idea hers...

We can not thank Kim enough for her help with our first home purchase. We closed back in February so I am so late on this review...Kim was patient with us and our MANY questions, always got back to us immediately and helped us buy a home in an area we were not familiar with.
