Marcia was a great help and resource through our property buying process, sticking with us through almost purchasing a two-flat and then through buying our first house (yay!). Marcia always has a lot of information, whether it's about neighborhoods, contractors, or schools. Early on, we sat down with Marcia and had a long talk about what we were looking for, so she knew what we would or ...

Marcia is a great real estate agent! She was very helpful and patient with us. My husband and I enjoyed working with her and appreciate all her hard work. She did a great job finding houses she thought were worth looking at. Thanks Marcia for all your help. We had a great experience choosing you and Dream Town. Maria B. & Fernando S. , Garfield Ridge

Marcia is one of the four Real Estate agents my wife and I had a chance to meet. Even though we're first time buyers, my wife and I felt that she is the best among the four. She is very professional, patient and down to earth type of person. She doesn't rush you to make a decision. She recommends people that can be trusted and does a great job like the building inspector that inspected t...

Marcia was always available to me as I had questions on my transaction. Her advice and counsel was invaluable to me. She was honest and thoughtful in her advice. She went out of her way to help me as issues came up relative to inspections and repairs that became necessary.

I really didn't like to work with real estate agents (I had many bad experiences) until I met Marcia Badillo. She is just the best and changed my mind about their job. I remember when I met her she did not sound desperate like many others real estate agents who I've met before. She just asked me for details and my permission to send me some properties that I might be interested in. I spe...

I moved to Chicago from Washington, DC in August of 2007. My search for a home began on the internet, where I found Dream Town's user-friendly website, and my agent, Marcia Badillo. I e-mailed Marcia and warned her that my price range was under $250K -- I'm a teacher -- and that I didn't want even to look at anything I couldn't afford. My timeframe was also very tight -- I could only com...

We had the privilege of being Marcia's first clients. This purchase was an investment property for one of us and a lease-to-own for the other. We had a vague idea of what we wanted and the price range, but left the details to Marcia. Within two weeks, Marcia had shown us the property that we liked and we moved forward with the purchase. Marcia's professionalism, her knowledge of the mark...

We stumbled across Marcia one Sunday afternoon at an open house. We had just started looking for our first Condo. From the minute we left the open house talking with Marcia, we decided how comfortable and how easy Marcia explained things. As a Real estate agent, she really listened to what we wanted and did not push anything on us that we could not afford. I remember we had a list of thi...

Thank you Marcia for your honest opinion, advice, direction, and a listening ear for us being first-time homebuyers in a new city that we truly love. You bring charm, humor, expertise, and confidence to the real estate profession. We were quite impressed with the large array of professional referrals you recommended to us such as home inspectors, handyman, and lawyers. We look forward...

I was very satisfied with your knowledge of the different areas and the real estate market, and your desire to actually understand my needs. . . not only were you great in helping me understand the home buying process, you provided an objective set of eyes for me, which was invaluable. . . you were very upfront on all issues, and followed through on every commitment you made. Which, in t...

We would like to say Marcia is a true real estate professional. We had only one day to look at properties and she was so well organized that we saw every property we wanted and few extra. She went the extra mile to make sure we had a good feel for what was in the market. We are from out of town so communication was critical, and Marcia was fantastic. We have bought several homes in the p...

Marcia is great! As someone who was selling their existing place and buying a new one Marcia was able to give me insights on both sides of the table. Throughout the process she really made me feel as if I was her only client! I don't know how she does it, but, she was able to quickly understand what I was looking for, identify the implications of various options, and simplify the process...

Marcia Badillo puts the Real in Realtor! I was looking at buying my first place and Marcia took the time to explain how important it was to consider the location, and then what was in my financial means. To do so, Marcia met me at my local Starbucks on a Saturday and explained the entire buying process. She provided me not only a cup of coffee, but a very detailed timeline which included...

I really enjoyed having Marcia as my realtor. She was very patient with me and continuously adjusted to my schedule. She's not pushy about making a sale, which helped make my purchase decision easier. Her knowledge of the market is excellent and her assessments of the various properties were always on the mark. Furthermore, she made me feel comfortable in my choice. I will use her ...

My wife and I had a pleasant experience working with Marcia. She's a very knowledgeable, friendly, and patient individual with a drive to find exactly what we were looking for. We found the perfect home for us and we thank Marcia for making it happen. We've already recommended Marcia to all our friends and Marcia will definitely be the first person we call for our next real estate invest...

My buying and selling experiences with Marcia Badillo have been both enjoyable and productive. I've never worked with another Realtor who was more willing to put in the time and effort to find the right property or the right buyer, and I've been continually impressed and sometimes amazed at how hard she works to make sure everything comes together. In addition to her business acumen and ...

Marcia has been my realtor for 3 different home transactions (2 as a buyer, 1 as a seller) and each time I have relied more and more on her judgment and professionalism, and trust her implicitly at every step of the process. I was a novice in the world of buying and selling a home; she was my go-to person throughout the whole process from the housing search to the financing, from the neg...

Thanks again for all of your help in finding my HOME. Your patience & expertise was exceptional. I went into this venture with very little knowledge of real estate and with your guidance I felt comfortable with the buying process of my condo. You really went above and beyond the call of duty in helping me to deal with a difficult seller. Your composure, professionalism and humor made the...

We were new to Chicago and really got lucky to meet Marcia. We knew she had other clients but she made us feel like we were her only ones. She is a tireless worker and really educated us on the Chicago neighborhoods and surrounding suburbs. What started as a search for condos in Lincoln Park/Roscoe Village/Lakeview areas moved to a single family home search in Oak Park. The story ends wi...

Most real estate agents I have come across in my life have always followed the same pattern; they are your best friend when you are looking or selling. After you sign the contract they find little time for you. At the closing they are no where to be found and don't return phone calls. Marcia is an EXCEPTION to this pattern!! She was honest, knowledgeable and friendly throughout the entir...

As first-time home buyers, we really weren't sure what we were looking for or what to expect! Marcia did a great job of showing us a variety of places to keep our options open and was extremely patient! We must have gone to the same place at least 3 times! We are very pleased with our new place and looking forward to sharing with our friends and family. Thanks Marcia for all your help!Ca...

As a recently divorced Dad, I had specific needs for a single-family home - close to my son's school, a back yard to play ball in, and a real sense of a "home. " - a place my son could feel like home vs. just "Dad's house", and to build memories in. And at the time I was looking, there were a lot of other things on my mind - and some uncertainty as to financials. Marcia really understood...

Raymond and I wanted to say THANK YOU!! This entire home buying process was much easier than we both imagined! Marcia, you were a joy to work with. We felt like you understood what we were looking for, and guided us in the best direction. You were very friendly yet professional, flexible, responsive and understanding. These comments hold true for all of the individuals (attorney, lender ...

Being first-time homebuyers, Claire and I weren't always sure if we were asking the right questions or looking for the right answers. Marcia was very helpful in guiding through the home buying process and was there with us every step of the way. She made herself available whenever we had questions or wanted to look at something different. She understood that, as first-time homebuyers, we...

"With Marcia's help I was able to complete a property transaction that was statistically improbable. Many people today talk about purchasing distressed properties but these "great deals" are typically a mirage. However, Marcia's expert knowledge enabled me to obtain a distressed property at a great value without getting my hopes up during the slow process. Without Marcia's finesse, her r...

If you plan to buy a home in the Chicago area you would be crazy not to choose Marcia Badillo as your agent! She was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. Marcia is very knowledgeable, communicates extremely well, and was always available to answer all of the many questions we had as first time home buyers. We had some issues with the sellers' agent taking forever to get ba...

We had been dreading the process of looking for a new home in a new town but Marcia made the process as smooth as it can be. She quickly learned about our preferences and wish list as she took the time to get to know what we want in a home. She was always calm and objective and helped us look beyond the obvious during our search. She is very experienced about the Chicago real estate ...

Marcia was wonderful to work with, and we really appreciated her advice and all her hard work. She was so patient with us as we agonized through the process in a difficult housing market. Marcia was recommended to me by a friend. And I will have no reservations in recommending Marcia to my friends and colleagues in the future.

Marcia was a pleasure to work with. I was a first time home buyer and really knew nothing about the process. Marcia was great at explaining each part of the process and being patient with all my questions. I never felt any pressure to buy and Marcia never complained when taking me to a million different properties. :) I would work with Marcia again in a heartbeat.

Marcia was patient with us in a very challenging market. She was flexible with our needs when we asked to see houses within a small window of opportunity. When we finally found a house she was efficient in writing up our offers. With Marcia's patience, we now have a house we feel we will live in for a long time.

Great professional service

Choosing Marcia as my Real Estate Agent was one of the best decisions I've ever made! Knowing that I was a first-time home buyer, she took all the necessary time (and a lot of patience) to clearly explain the entire home purchasing process from start to finish as well as understand my specific needs and limitations (budget and a specific timing for closing). She went above and beyond to ...

My wife and I were first time condo buyers, and Marcia took the time to run us through the process and make sure that we understood everything. We were on an extremely tight time schedule, as our landlords were forcing us out right in the middle of our search. Marcia worked tirelessly to find us potential condos, and even helped find temporary apartments just in case we didn't close befo...

I recently retained Marcia when I began my search for a house. She was very accommodating and knowledgeable during the entire process. She worked hard to help find the place that was right for me. I am thankful for her perseverance. My family has used Marcia's services several times in the past because of her experience and expertise. We will continue to rely on her for all of...

Marcia has been our real estate agent for two times now. The first time she helped us with the purchase or our first condo in Rogers Park. The second time, just this past May 2018, she helped us with selling and buying our new condo in Ravenswood. From the moment we told her we were serious about moving, she put everything in gear to make it happen within our time frame. Amazingly, we pu...

We couldnâ??t ask for a better agent. She helped us from the beginning to the end, answering questions 24/7. She made us feel ready, confident and the most important she made us feel secure of the delación of buying a house. We recommend Marcia 100%, she found our dream home and Iâ??m sure she will do the same for you !

As a first-time home buyer, there were many situations my fiancé and I encountered that we were new to, but Marcia made this process as seamless as possible. She was attentive to our needs, our likes and dislikes, and also inquired with us about important variables we never thought to include in our search. She was extremely responsive whenever we needed to contact her and proved ...

I canâ??t say enough about our experience with Marcia. She guided us through our condo sale like a total pro. We rarely had questions for her as she was always updating us on the process and where we were in it. Iâ??ve never felt so confident working with an agent before. Not only did she direct us on everything we needed to do but she got multiple offers in 2 days of listing!!! An...

We couldnâ??t have chosen a better realtor than Marcia when we were looking to see our condo! Her professionalism, plus personal interest in working with us made the entire experience go quickly and smoothly. Marcia took care of everything, meeting with us wherever and whenever it was convenient for for us. Much to our delight, we had a showing the very NEXT DAY after the listing was ...

We love working with Marcia! We have worked with her three times now since 2012 and most recently earlier this summer. She is our go-to real estate agent and through the years, we trust her to have our best interest in mind throughout the process of buying and selling our condos. From our referrals, our family and friends have also worked with Marcia and are very happy with her service a...

My husband and I loved working with Marcia! She was kind and patient throughout the home buying process. We started working with her in November of 2019. What set her apart from other realtors we worked with was that she wasn't pushy. Some realtors like every house they show potential clients. However, Marcia was honest and forthcoming about the properties and we really valued her opinio...

I have worked with Marcia for over a decade and she is amazing. Just recently, she helped us sell our house and she put together a FANTASTIC strategy. There was a house in our neighborhood that had been sold far below it's market value and it was creating an issue in getting our house sold at the price we felt our house was worth. Marcia tracked down the agent who sold the other house an...

A total pleasure to work with Marcia on the sale of our apartment. Living out of state sales can sometimes be stressful but the whole process was smooth and easy and we have Marcia to thank for that. She really did give us peace of mind throughout the sale.

Since buying my condo in 2007, Marcia has taken excellent care of me. Â She answered my property tax questions, sent me a form for a homeowner's refund that I qualified for, and gave me comps information when I was applying for a Home Equity Loan. Â Â Now that's good customer service - long after the papers have been signed and commissions paid!Catherine - Rogers Park

Marcia is a great real estate agent! She's extremely efficient and an expert in her business. My husband and I enjoyed working with her and appreciated her professionalism. We are enjoying our house immensely. Thanks to you Marcia!Anabel & Moses Gomez, Garfield Ridge

It was a great pleasure having Marcia as our agent. Marcia was very efficient and this was evident from the very beginning when we discussed with her the specs and all the additional details we were looking for in a condo, and during the search process. We appreciated the fact that Marcia acknowledged our opinion/doubts and readily gave her professional opinion/advice whenever we were di...

Marcia did an amazing job assisting my husband and I with both selling and buying a home. With state of the real estate market during our process, there were unforeseen complications but having an advocate like Marcia on our side enabled us to navigate through what would otherwise have been a daunting experience. We purchased a new construction home so there were a lot of extra steps tha...
