I’ve had the pleasure of working with Tyler Stallings for years, and I can say without hesitation that he is one of the finest agents that I know. Tyler and I have exchanged referrals between Chicago and Denver, and every time I hand him a client, I know they’re in exceptional hands.
Tyler listens closely, communicates promptly, and treats every client’s goals as if they were his own. He knows his market inside and out, negotiates with skill and integrity, and keeps clients informed and at ease through every step of the process. My clients have consistently come back to me raving about their experience with him.
One of my clients was so well cared for that Tyler went on to help them with multiple properties, which is the highest compliment a client can pay. I’ll admit I’m a little jealous: Tyler has made friends with my friends who moved away from Denver! But I can’t be too upset, because they’re in the best possible hands.
I value Tyler not only as a respected colleague but as a true friend. He is a genuinely kind person and a real professional, and I’m grateful to know him. If you’re buying or selling in Chicago, you couldn’t ask for a better advocate.

Kara guided us through a chaotic situation — moving cross-country with kids mid-school year to a city where we had little prior knowledge on a *very* compressed timeline — and became the calm in our storm.
A native Chicagoan, Kara offered great, no-nonsense insights that cleared confusion about schools, communities, properties and processes. She accompanied us throughout the Chicagoland area for a marathon of open houses, scheduled showings, home inspections and finally our closing. When we encountered unexpected bumps along the way (home inspections matter!), Kara provided a steady presence that countered the moment in a way that we needed and appreciated and even worked a holiday weekend to keep the process moving smoothly.
We largely credit Kara with creating conditions that helped us make decisions at the pace we needed and in a way that led to the purchase of our new home. We would recommend Kara to anyone looking for their new home and would work with her again in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything, Kara!
We would give Tyler ten stars if we could. He is professional, well-connected, informed and helped us make the best decision for our second home in the city. His market insight and understanding of the city’s neighborhoods made narrowing our search easy and we found the perfect condo in no time. During negotiations, he was savvy and was always available and made sure we understood the nuances of the deal before signing anything. He also caught details in the contract that we could have potentially overlooked and made sure we were clear on all of the HOA requirements. What could have been a stressful experience was straightforward and much more simple than we imagined it would be. Tyler has kept in touch after closing, too, making sure we are happy with our decision and we now count him as a friend. He will be our absolute go-to for any future real estate transactions.
Stuck in a whirlwind of moving, last minute and from out of state, I randomly called Corcoran Realty company - not even knowing they dealt with apartment leasing and Stefanie answered. She spent an hour talking to me and walking me through tje process of a big move to Chicago in a short amount if time.
From that moment, until after move in, Stefanie was an anchor that provided a wealth of information in all aspects of moving to Chicago from out of state. She answered countless text messages and phone calls. She offered many options for places to live and even made note of neighborhood dynamics, nearby shopping and helped narrow down options based on amenities.
Stefanie was able to answer every single one of our many questions and helped extinguish fears by sharing her extensive knowledge of living in Chicago.
We strongly recommend Stefanie Krause as your realtor. Whether you are a native Chicago resident or moving to Chicago for the first time, she will be in your corner and will work hard to find you the perfect place.
Stefanie, thank you for taking such good care of us and for finding us such a great place!
Gary, I want to thank you for a very fine real estate experience… with you leading the way. Your direction for me was as prudent as it gets and thanks to your talents, I don’t think anything could have gotten in the way of the final success. (Except the air conditioner—- but even that you provided your magic wand.) I wish you much continued progress and I’m so happy my Amanda recommended your wonderful essence to the total effort. MY SINCERE APPRECIATION SIR!
We couldn’t have asked for someone better than Stefanie to help us find our new home in Chicago! She went above and beyond to make the entire rental process as simple and stress free as possible. She was incredibly responsive, flexible, and attentive to what we were looking for, making sure we found a place that we truly loved. We’re so grateful for all of her help and would highly recommend Stefanie to anyone looking for a new home!
I would recommend Stef to anyone that is looking to buy a home. Since day one, she was supportive and had my best interest at heart. This was my first time purchasing a home and I had a lot of questions and Stef never made me feel bad. If anything she always encouraged me to ask more.
She was with me every step of the way from inspection to close. Also, she is super responsive! Her communication is amazing and she keeps you informed with everything. Also, her recommendations are 10/10 and you can tell she is really passionate about the work she does.
I never would have been able to go through this process if it wasn’t for Stef. If I am ever looking to purchase another property, I will definitely be reaching out to Stef.
I love the place I purchased and Stef helped me bring to life my vision for a cozy condo in Chicago.
There are so many more wonderful things I could say but from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much, Stef! Not just from me, but my family as well. :)
I had a wonderful experience working with Kara. She did an outstanding job throughout the entire process and were always available, reliable, and responsive whenever I had a question or needed guidance. Communication was clear and consistent from start to finish, which made the entire experience feel smooth and stress-free.
I truly appreciated her professionalism, knowledge, and dedication. I would highly recommend Kara to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable real estate agent!
Jennifer was extremely helpful and patient the whole way through. I was a true amateur yet she made it easy and understandable and worked hard to find what was right for us. I had an amazing experience, everything worked out just right, got the right building for the right price- couldn't have done it without Jennifer's help! Thank you so much !
