As first time buyers we were overwhelmed by the process of buying our new home. Having no idea what question to ask, or where to even start — other than our needs for central air and parking — a colleague of ours recommended Susie Kanter to us. Susie did everything for us, from appropriately assessing what we could spend for a new home based on our income and identifying key ...

Susie is amazing to work with, tremendously professional and knowledgeable about all aspects of the home buying process. She negotiated on our behalf and fought for us, and we received the "largest closing credit" our lender had ever seen! Susie is a well rounded agent, with a stellar reputation in Chicagoland. We routinely ran into real estate agents who knew her or knew of her reputati...

When an agent brings knowledge and professionalism like Susie does, it brings a comfort level to everyone involved in the transaction. My seller was so very grateful of how (smoothly) the transaction went ... The comfort she brings to everyone involved is what sets her apart from everyone else!Joe, Real Estate Agent, @Properties

We worked with Susie on the sale of our condo, just as the market was beginning to slide. She met with us months in advance and provided us with excellent advice regarding the preparation of our unit so buyers could envision themselves living in our condo. Susie also provided us with ideas and resources including difficult but sensible counsel regarding our asking price. As a result, we ...

Susie provided stability and a positive attitude when selling our condo in the midst of a poor market. We feel she did an excellent job for us in what was a challenging process. She proved she was extremely knowledgeable and an excellent advocate during the selling process. We were lucky to have Susie also represent us during the purchase of our first home and we couldn't be happier with...

As a first time home buyer, I didn't even know where to start. How do I find condos? How do I pick an agent? What do I even want to buy? Luckily, one of my colleagues said, "I have just the agent for you." Enter Susie Kanter of Dream Town Realty. Three words: Educated. Responsive. Caring. Educated - Susie knows the downtown market really well. She's been doin...

Our family relocated to Chicago from Canada recently, and we worked with Susie in finding our home here. Our most important factors were to find a home near a great school and in a kid-friendly neighborhood. Susie was very thorough and extremely responsive in this process, representing our interests beyond expectation. We were successful in our search, and thanks to Susie our transition ...

Susie represented us in the sale of our Lakeview condo. He experience and hard work helped us to get a good deal for our place in a very tough real estate market. We interviewed several Realtors before finding Susie and none of them came close. For a Realtor that has a lot on her plate, she made us feel like we were her only client. We recommend Susie to all our f...

As first time home owners and new to Chicago, Susie was the perfect fit for us: patient, informative, helpful, flexible, and fun. We spent many weekends and nights together viewing over 50 houses and every outing Susie was prepared and energetic. Susie is excellent at communication, not only with us, but all the other parties of the house buying process. Susie ge...

Working with Susie was such a pleasure! We worked with her to sell our condo in Lakeview and then to buy our current home in Lincoln Square. On the sell side, Susie never pressured us into making a decision that we were uncomfortable with. She talked with us and provided all the pros and cons and helped us come to a decision that was right for us. It was clear she had our family's best i...

We recently sold our home and purchased a condo in the city with Susie as our agent. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her as her level of knowledge, professionalism and work ethic can be hard to come by. Her communication and business style always made us feel informed, confident and well represented. Her strong relationships and years of experience made a real difference when thos...

My husband and I worked with Susie recently to purchase our first home, based on a recommendation from friends who'd had a great experience with her. We feel so lucky to have found her, and couldn't have asked for a better guide during such an important process. Susie was a true advocate for us, a trusted advisor, and always had our best interest in mind. We'd highly recommend her to all...

Susie Kanter is a total professional, and an extremely helpful partner in our house buying search, price negotiation, and purchase. Susie also was key in suggesting professional support for our home buying experience: lawyers, plumbers, electricians, floor refinishing etc. Susie's contacts were invaluable. The lawyer Susie suggested made our house closing experience a breeze....

Susie and her team were so knowledgeable and hard-working! They provided consistently comprehensive information and assistance to make our dream of owning a 2-Flat in a vibrant and stable Chicago neighborhood a reality!! We would like to give a special thanks to Natalie who sold our condo so quickly and efficiently with such a positive attitude! Each member of the team made us feel so co...

If you're looking for top-notch connections, endless 24/7 support (seriously), a listener who isn't afraid to say what needs to be said, patience, optimism, and the hardest-working realty team in Chicago, Susie and the Kanter team IS IT. My husband and I turned to Susie this year to help us find our "forever" home. We were torn between the suburbs and the North Side, and Susie patie...

Susie is a true talent in Chicago. Not only did she find us our dream home on her first try, she also sold our home the day it went on the market! We give her the highest rating and recommend her to all our friends and family. A pure joy!

My husband and I worked with Susie to sell our condo in Lincoln Square and buy a new home in Evanston. We had worked with several realtors via Redfin and other agencies when buying our condo and starting the search process for our second home, and Susie was absolutely the best by far. She was extremely patient and straightforward in advising us how to put our condo's best foot forward fo...

I had the pleasure of working with Susie Kanter on my home sale and my condo purchase. Susie is incredibly smart, savvy and has excellent customer service. She goes beyond what is expected of a real estate agent. She is very "authentic" and has great knowledge of all aspects of the real estate market in Chicago. A rare find in the real estate industry. I also worked with her associate Na...

I spent the better part of the summer of 2019 working with Susie and her team to sell a condo in Lincoln Square while looking for a new condo in the surrounding areas. She took the time to listen to what I wanted, gave advice based on her experience as a realtor and as a neighbor, and always took the time to explain the little details of the process. My condo sold quickly and was a ...

Susie is absolutely the best. We used her to buy and sell our condo in the city and purchase our first home in Wilmette. Let me start with how we met her. Early in our condo buying process my husband and I were casually going to open houses without a realtor. One cold Saturday we were standing outside the entrance of an open house waiting for the seller's agent to show up. Susie wa...

When my wife and I decided to sell our condo in the spring of 2011 we knew it was not going to be easy. We were looking for an agent with a strong understanding of the Chicago real estate market, a realistic approach given the market conditions, and someone who communicated with us regularly to keep us informed. During our initial meeting Susie presented us with a detailed market an...

Susie helped me sell my Lincoln Square condo with tenants in two weeks! I was concerned about listing while the unit was occupied, but Susie assured me that she had worked with tenants on showings, etc. in the past and that we could do it. I was very happy that I moved forward. Susie worked well with my tenants and even helped me get repairs completed prior to closing. Susie and her team...

Susie and her team was great! We worked with them twice and both the experience of buying and selling was a pleasure. Susie has a great understanding of North Chicago and Evanston and really helped us find a place we loved as we were moving in from out of state.

Susie did GREAT work for us! She sold 1 property for us and worked very patiently to help us buy another. Susie had great recommendations for how to prepare the house to sell so that is showed incredibly well. She did comprehensive market research to price the house so we got an asking price offer on the first day of showings! It took is much longer to buy than to sell because we were pa...

Calling Susie Kanter a real estate agent is akin to calling Babe Ruth a ballplayer. In both cases, the terms are technically accurate, and yet they constitute a gross understatement. Just like the Babe, Susie is not defined by her generic profession, so much as she redefines the standard of excellence for the profession, itself. Sure, she's adept at helping her clients buy and sell...

You will not find a better real estate professional than Susie Kanter. I've been working with Susie for over 20 years. She helped me find my first condo in 1997. Five years later, when I wanted to buy a two-flat, Susie worked tirelessly to find the perfect one. It was for sale by owner. Without hesitation, she still supported me through the entire buying process and sold my condo within ...

As a first time homeowner, I wanted a realtor who was experienced, patient, informative, and committed to being my advocate. Susie was all of those things and much more. From the very beginning, Susie was very responsive and went out of her way to answer every single question, even ones that we had not thought to ask. During our initial condo viewings, she went over tedious de...

We'd always heard how painful first time home buying is, but thanks to Susie and her team, that was not our experience at all. She was helpful, knowledgeable, and kind. She was extremely responsive, and always answered any questions we had. She helped us every step along the way and we can't recommend her enough! We love our new condo!

There is no one wiser, more trustworthy, more professional, and perhaps most importantly, more understanding and genuinely kind, than Susie. From the moment we met, Susie demonstrated that her number one priority was to understand us and our unique needs, our must-haves and our nice-to-haves, at which point she essentially became an extension of us with the expertise to boot. No question...

I bought my first condo 12 years ago and hired on Susie, who was representing the seller, as my agent. Back then in 2008, even though my partner at the time led the process with Susie, I found Susie to be extremely trustworthy and professional. Fast-forward to 2020 COVID times, I'm still in the same condo in Chicago and am now looking to sell and purchase a home and I went with Susie aga...

WOW, just Wow. Susie Kanter and team are the very best. I've been lucky enough to buy and sell 8 houses so far – but never have I had an experience like I have with Dream Team Realty and Susie Kanter. She made the entire process easy – even during a time where the city was closed and people were sheltering-at home. Susie was able to use her network of contacts and marketing...
