Bineesh M. bought a home in Naperville

Working with William was a great experience. He helped us find our dream home in this challenging housing market. William quickly identified what we were looking for and he was willing to go above and beyond in making sure we always saw homes that met our criteria. We were able to schedule showings quickly and in multiple neighborhoods. He guided us in having our offer stand out and ultimately accepted, even when we were competing against multiple offers. William is extremely knowledgeable in the inspection process and helped us identify any potential problems that could be found in each house. He understands the market very well and can be trusted to give you honest advice. We highly recommend William if you are looking for your dream home!

Debbie K. sold a home in Lockport

Selling a home can be stressful but we were very fortunate to contract with Real 1 Realty. Our agent, William was professional, personal, accessible, and considerate. Whenever we had questions he always took the time to thoroughly answer them. Text messages and phone calls were always answered promptly. We are very satisfied with the results and level of service we experienced. We will definitely contract with Real 1 Realty in the future. Thank you Real 1 Realty and William.

Headlee B. sold a home in Dixon, IL

COMPLETE TURNKEY SERVICE I was no longer able to work due to a medical condition. My mortgage holder was understanding to a point. Served foreclosure papers. I called William at Real 1 Realty. He fully explained all my options and recommended a short sale. He did everything, obtained approval from the bank, marketed the house, and closed in less than 6 months. I was not charged with a deficiency judgment from my lender. Real 1 Realty went above and beyond to shepherd me through this trying process. I do not have the words to express my satisfaction. You can trust them just as I did, they will not let you down.

Suesan W. sold a home in Hoffman Estates

We used William for the sale of a house in Hoffman Estates. We had him come in December to evaluate our home and advise what we might change to get the most for it. We had him list the house on March 3rd and by the 7th we had 6 offers on our home and all but one was for over listing price. He was quick on sending out viewing appointments and followed up with information and keeping us up to date. Our sale and closing was the best process we ever could have asked for. If you are wanting a stress-free sale of your home, we highly recommend using William, you will not be disappointed.

Valerie F. bought a home in Arlington Heights

It was a pleasure working with William. As a first-time homebuyer, I had a lot of questions - William was very knowledgeable and made sure to answer all of my questions in the simplest way. William was very prompt at returning calls/emails which is a huge deal for me! William made sure to check in during the entire home buying process and offered advice that was beneficial to us. William went above and beyond to meet our expectations. If you are looking for someone who is professional, down-to-earth, and knowledgeable. William is the right guy for you! I highly recommend him!

Sandra S. sold a home in Oak Forest

Mr. William Squires is the most professional, caring, and honest RE agent I have ever encountered....and back in the day I was a RE agent so I've come across quite a few. We were at our wits end and going to just walk away from our house when I ran across a very positive review about Mr. Squires. I decided to try one more time to talk to someone about our options (previous attempts went nowhere) and called William. To my surprise he walked me through the short sale process in a manner that was understandable on that first call. He answered all questions that I had. I must emphasize that his answers were all truthful because even though our sale was not easy, everything he said would happen came to be. After 8 months of William working very hard we closed today, which was acceptable to us and our mortgage company. Anyone that would like to verify anything that I have said please feel free to contact me on FB. Make Mr. Squires your listing agent...you will be very pleased! Sandra Siksta

Jenny F. sold a home in St Charles

Highly recommend!!! I would give this company 10 stars if I could. I found this company on Google. Since I wanted to find a full-time realtor not a realtor that claims they work full time. I decided to call and see who picks up and who lets it go to voicemail. Real 1 Realty was one of 5 that I called that day. It was William that picked up on a Saturday morning at 9am. (The other 4 never returned my call after I left messages.) William was very professional and you can tell he was capable and experienced. Our situation had some complications and came with dilemmas because the estate was in Trust. He knew exactly what to do and throughout the process his advice was always precise and the right thing to do. My sister and I were so grateful we were in such capable hands. Our house sold quickly and we felt it was at the price point that the market held. Awesome company and I highly recommend them!!

We were very happy with our experience with William in selling our house. He responded in a timely manner. William took excellent care of the process and was spot on with his advice on framing the counter offer. He did a great job and was very proactive on all issues that occurred during the house sale. I would highly, highly recommend William; it was a great pleasure working with him!

Wilbur L. sold a home in Schuamburg

These 5 stars are worth it. William was amazing! He made himself extremely accessible. He kept us updated regularly. He solely represents the Buyer or Seller, not both at the same time. We felt like 100% of his effort was to get us the best deal and make the process as smooth as possible for our family. We also appreciated his experience in the industry. He has a good feel for the market, pricing, trends and negotiating. And most importantly, we got the feeling that our satisfaction was his #1 priority. Very skilled and genuine. I highly recommend William
