What Attendees Are Saying

"I moved to Lemont from New York to be with family. Thinking about all that is entailed in a big move is daunting. Upon meeting Mark, I felt confident that I was in good hands, and that feeling turned out to be the reality. From start to finish and beyond, Pawlak Properties has helped me navigate not only the purchase of my new home but has facilitated getting all my utility accounts in order replete with account numbers and guidance on how to access the accounts. Subsequent to purchasing the home I have needed service providers and the Pawlak Property team has continued to support me by offering referrals for local providers. Of the providers I have used so far, each one has been excellent. I am sure I am leaving out countless other details of the support afforded to me by the team. I n summary, this is a complete team of experts who support and assist at every turn. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to everyone."
"I HIGHLY recommend this team!!!! Working with Pawlak Properties was the BEST experience. I have been impressed by the professionalism, the dedication and the overall expertise that this team has shown me and my family. They seriously go above and beyond for their clients. I was able to buy a new house and sell my house within 2 weeks, and close a month later. From the office staff, Shannon, Maximus, Mark and Wendy, I felt that they always had my best interest at heart and everyone was so organized. Selling/buying a home is a very stressful time in anybody's life. Pawlak Properties made the process seamless and very easy. This team was seriously the reason I was able to sell my home so quickly, and buy the one that I wanted. I would recommend this team to anyone that is buying or selling their home to have the best experience!!!!!"
"Wendy and Mark were fantastic communicators and planners. I was very pleased with their upfront analysis and approach. I felt informed throughout the process. The condo had four above-list price offers on the first day. Closing was smooth. Thanks Wendy, Mark, and the entire Pawlak team!"
