“…Making it simple”

Joey G.

I'll start with saying how lucky I am to have found David and the rest of the Porter Group in searching for my new condo. David was very patient with me through the entire process.  From the beginning of the search, he met with me often after working hours throughout the city on my schedule and any  number of times. Through the negotiations he was extremely honest with me through each step, and I trusted his opinion and evaluation of each of the places we looked. When it finally came to the place we found, he helped put us over the top against competing offers, and navigated us through the closing.  Through the weeks that followed, his team was extremely responsive and helpful in getting us through a tricky negotiations, but they made it easy on us by being available whenever we needed and continuing to give good advice. Thanks again David, Jack and team - we love our new place and wouldn't have gotten it without your help!

David was wonderful to work with! Unlike many realtors we have worked with in the past, David is laid back and doesn’t push an agenda. He is on your side from start to finish, and became a friend during our process. We would highly recommend David Porter and his group to anyone moving to the area!

Porter Group was outstanding; communicative and helpful —spent a lot of time talking about specific work to be done (deeper knowledge of home construction and improvements than most brokers) and stayed with us long after the closing and receipt of his commission); you absolutely can’t go wrong with their help. They do not stop helping just because the transaction closes.

We were very pleased with the help, assistance and guidance provided by David in our home search and eventual purchase in Chicago.  Highly recommend him to anyone in need of a true professional!

I bought my first property in Chicago through Porter Group and without exaggerating, the reason the property deal was successful despite various hurdles was them. Their professionalism and hard work gave me a lot of confidence with this deal. Thank you!
