Get to know our teams leading luxury agents
My experience with selling and buying both have been super easy with Dawn McKenna and her entire team. She really understands the market, factors, and details important to the sale of your home. When buying she explains the potential for resale even before you purchase.
We purchased a house off-market on the private network with Dawn McKenna. The moment we walked through the front door, Dawn was very knowledgeable about the house and the area, and all the features of the house. She wrote up the offer that night and negotiated the deal! We were impressed with her level of understanding of what we wanted and successfully got us the house we dreamed of. I would recommend Dawn McKenna and her team to anyone looki...
We recently had the pleasure of working with Dawn and her team (Julie, Peggy, and Lillian), and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the outset, they listened to what we were looking for, provided great advice at every step of the way, and guided us through a smooth transaction. DMG knows the market and provides completely direct and honest feedback every step of the way. There is no doubt that DMG will be our first and only ca...
Dawn and her team are 100% high-level professionals. Most agents stop at one offer. Not Dawn, she worked and worked and continued to get multiple offers for the sale of my home. She is passionate about her work. She knows the industry and her advice is always solid. She, along with her team, works with you to optimize results. This is my fourth transaction with her. If you want a real pro, this is who you call.
Dawn and her whole team did a wonderful job helping us buy our home in Hinsdale. She has such a deep knowledge of the market and what our needs were and because of this, we were able to find our perfect home. Throughout the whole process we could access Dawn, Lillian, or Peggy at anytime and felt very comfortable that the process would go smoothly. They did such a good job and I would highly recommend Dawn and her team for anyone looking to pu...
The Dawn McKenna Group was so beyond an experience I would have ever expected. You are in the best hands with them, and they are so genuine, always on it. They get the job done. That's basically it, and they encouraged us to bring our children along if that's what was going to have to happen, ha! They were fully staffed and prepared to deal with all parties involved. Couldn't have asked for a better, more personal, joyful experience to enter m...
Dawn and her team are phenomenal! There are few realtors with more market expertise in Chicago's Western Suburbs. The DMG team was able to sell our home for the right price quickly and shepherded the process flawlessly. Communication was excellent, and they are a real pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend Dawn and her team to anyone looking to buy or sell. Well done, DMG.
We have listed our home for sale with Dawn. Dawn is a professional and knows the Hinsdale community. She has assembled a team that provides additional support.
Top retail professional in Chicago, clear and direct communication, the highest integrity, works diligently with a focus for buyer and seller alike. Sold my home in 6 days with a qualified buyer. Dawn has represented me on both sides and always delivers while keeping expectations realistic. The best!
Dawn listed my townhouse and got a solid offer in less than 4 days! Dawn and her team worked very hard with every detail of the sale and kept me updated. I was very impressed with the level of service and professionalism delivered by Dawn and her team. I would highly recommend her.
My wife and I highly recommend Dawn McKenna and her team. In short, she was excellent! We enjoyed the experience with her and will work with her again. We certainly recommend her to close friends and family. Dawn and her team found a home for us when we moved from the city to Hinsdale. Dawn helped us find the type of home and the right location that fit our family. She was able to help us focus on what was really important for our needs and th...
My family's association with Dawn Mckenna has been through 5 transactions and 3 moves during our 20 plus years in the Hinsdale, Oak Brook and Burr Ridge area. Her unmatched knowledge of the market and true concern for our needs have made our moves low-stress. She and her team are tireless workers whom I recommend and will continue to use exclusively.
Dawn McKenna helped us find our new home in Hinsdale. She is truly a professional and a hard worker. There are many positive attributes of Dawn however, the best thing about Dawn is that she adapted to our pace and guided us with all of her knowledge regarding the area and school. She is always available, well-prepared, and a pleasure to work with. Her recommendations are well thought off and she is a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend...
Amazing experience with Dawn. She is on top of the current trends, and her advice to make the house ready for potential buyers really paid off! Dawn's eye for detail and amazing personality helped sell our house in a week compared to our previous agent, who didn't even give us feedback after showings. Dawn is a class act and would definitely recommend. Looking forward to working with Dawn on our purchase!
I've worked with Dawn for the last 10 years. She's knowledgeable and professional. Most importantly, she gets the job done! She's sold 3 of my homes in under 30 days!
I listed my house with Dawn about 30 days ago, and it is still being shown, but I decided to review my experiences thus far. After interviewing realtors, I found Dawn and her wonderful team to be very knowledgeable and professional. She has a dynamic personality and an abundance of enthusiasm. I will update my review after my home has sold, but I would highly recommend her if you are interested in listing your home.
Dawn knows Hinsdale. She understood what we wanted and how to find it and close the deal. She takes the time to learn about her clients and their needs. She is patient and attentive, and very responsive by text and email, and phone. We would definitely work with her again.
Dawn has incredible business sense. She navigates negotiations well because she reads people well. If you want to sell your home, Dawn can do it. If you want to buy, she has the inside track.
Allie did an outstanding job assisting us with the purchase of our condo. She confidently navigated a competitive market and pushed towards an optimal outcome. Allie helped us make strong offers and stayed on top of the quick decision-making and communication with sellers. Allie was involved in all aspects of the closing. She was committed, responsive, and always gave great advice!
We are so grateful that Annie was our realtor for both selling and buying our new home. She is the most amazing realtor you will find, and having her help us was one of the best decisions we have made. Annie is extremely knowledgeable and professional, and we knew we were in excellent hands with her. Her communication and expertise throughout the process of both selling and buying were outstanding. In addition, she is kind, caring, and very ge...
Reaching out to Annie was the best decision we made in our search for a home in Lake Forest. The market has been so tight, so we really wanted somebody who had good connections and relationships in the area. From the start, it seemed that we made a good choice as she was always able to get us into homes before they hit the market and worked hard to make things happen. It took us 2 years to finally decide on a home, and let me tell you, not onc...
I purchased a condo in River North with Tory Rezin! She was amazing in negotiating the deal and helping us with every request. I highly recommend her in the city of Chicago as a top agent who is honest and trustworthy.
I would recommend Allie to anyone looking for a place in Chicago. She made the process extremely simple with her knowledge. She was always available to answer any questions and to help me with the process of being a first-time home buyer.
Allie recently helped me buy a condo. She is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and proactive. She made the whole buying process easy, and I would recommend her to anyone!
Annie is a great partner to work with! My husband and I found Annie through Zillow and were impressed by her prompt outreach and thoughtful questions. She took the time to really understand our needs and budget. One of Annie's biggest strengths is her knowledge of the north shore and market trends. As first-time home buyers, her insight into the market put us at ease. Highly recommend working with Annie!
My experience with Allie Cipra has been incredible. She sent me listings within an hour of first speaking to her and saved me time by filtering them out for me. I would not have been able to find my dream apartment without her!
Tory was extremely helpful in our process buying a new home. Her knowledge and expertise contributed to an extremely smooth closing! I would highly recommend Tory to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Chicago market.
When it comes to buying or selling your home, there's no one I'd trust more than Lauren. When I think of Lauren, the first thing that comes to mind is work ethic. Lauren works tirelessly for her clients, ensuring they have the advantage in a really competitive market. Lauren has extensive knowledge of real estate in Western Springs and uses that experience to give great advice on how to best leverage your home for sale. Lauren always has an ea...
Lauren has a great understanding of what we are seeking and helped guide us through the process. She is straightforward and doesn't hold back with her guidance.
Allie was extremely knowledgeable about the market & did a great job of breaking down the process to a new home buyer like me. She set me up with a lender, insurance agent, and an attorney who we're all beyond amazing to work with. She worked with my tight timeline & helped to execute a smooth closing. She went above and beyond to write a letter to the seller that ultimately led to my offer being accepted over another buyer. After closing, she...
When it comes to real estate and the inside scoop of the market, Lauren Walz is the person with the knowledge! We trusted her 100% with finding the home for us and with the negotiations until the very end. Lauren is passionate about what she does and is dedicated to helping you find the perfect community and home for your family.
It was an absolute pleasure working with Lauren. From the beginning, we were sure we were in good hands. She was with us every step of the way, answering all our questions and giving us valuable advice. In short, Lauren is extremely good at what she does, and we definitely will call on her when it comes time to sell.
Lauren Walz listens and delivers! She was able to take my list of must-haves and have-nots and find our forever home. She will not waste your time showing you house after house, and when it comes to negotiating, she is unbeatable. Super competitive, full of drive, and the hardest working person I know. She is hands down the best.
Allie was incredible during this stressful market! She was efficient, she set realistic expectations, and very professional. A homeowner showed me a place and told me that I was able to see it first based on how professional and efficient Allie was on the phone with him when asking for a showing. She helped find my current rental, and I could not be more pleased!
Lauren is the best of the best! She seamlessly helped us navigate a tough market as we made the transition from living in downtown Chicago to the Western Suburbs. Lauren's extensive knowledge of the area allowed us to gain immediate access to houses as they came on the market. Thanks to Lauren, we found the ultimate trifecta - a house we love, on a block filled with lovely neighbors, in a town we adore! Added bonus working with Lauren? You get...
Lauren is an absolute pleasure to work with, and her knowledge of the local market is unmatched. She was always available to take a call or help us determine if a house was the right fit. We will work with Lauren on every sale/purchase in the future.
Bari did a fantastic job helping with my Lincoln Park home purchase! She helped narrow down the exact area we wanted we wanted a walk to town location and to be close to the train. She was very honest about where we needed to be in order to win the offer. Every deal has speed bumps, but she was calm and organized, which ultimately helped us close the deal. We are super excited for our next chapter and thankful for Bari's strong guidance!
Lauren made the entire process smooth on our buy and our sell. Without a doubt, she got us our highest offer, and her experience was invaluable. On our sale, we had multiple offers, many of which greatly exceeded our list.
Lauren is the best of the best! I called Lauren when I was in need of finding a rental in our town (not an easy task), and of course, she had a pocket listing for me that day! She helped negotiate with the landlords and got my family into the home that weekend! Her knowledge of the local market and community makes her an asset for all real estate needs. Glad to have her as a neighbor and friend.
Lauren is amazing- she found us our dream home and worked with us until we found the perfect place to raise our family. Making the move from Chicago, where we lived for 14 years, we wanted to make sure we worked with someone who knew the western burbs inside and out, and she was such an incredible resource. Thanks Lauren!
As a home builder who has worked with numerous real estate professionals over the past 20 plus years, I could not be more pleased with the entire team at DMG. From their innovative approach to marketing, to their attention to detail, when listing a home with DMG, we have come to expect a process that is both seamless and consistent. Our contact, Lauren Walz is always professional and prepared in all of our interactions with her. She is upbeat ...
Bari was a fabulous realtor to work with last year. She was so patient with me, working to help me find the place I ultimately bought over the course of a few months, which was so helpful considering I was a first-time home buyer. She helped me put in good offers and gave me honest, realistic feedback about what price I needed to go in at in order to get a deal. Her team is also awesome and can help you see a place if she is busy with somethin...
Bari's local expertise is second to none and her charismatic demeanor was appreciated so much. Trying to find an apartment to rent can be very stressful, yet Bari made the process smooth and eas,y and she was always available whenever I had questions.
Bari is my go-to realtor in Chicago! She listed my family condo in Lakeview and helped me buy a new condo in Lincoln Park. The listing and buying process was seamless and enjoyable with Bari. She goes above and beyond, is highly organized, and well-versed in the Chicago market. Highly recommend!
Bari is our trusted real estate source. She helped us through the first-time home-buying process in the city. In such a tight and competitive market, you must work with an agent who has access and knows how to help your offer stand out amongst the rest. She helped us secure our current condo in a multiple offer before it even hit the market. We completely trust her guidance!
Bari is an outstanding agent. She went above and beyond to get us into a hot home first, which was critical in achieving a fantastic outcome. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an agent in the Chicagoland area!
Allie is the best! She's a true professional and is knowledgeable about a vast number of living opportunities/situations in the Chicago area. Once she understood what we were looking for in an apartment, she quickly sent recommendations that fulfilled our requisites. Allie is also a great communicator, she helped us in understanding everything necessary to complete on our end throughout the process, from paperwork to the tour and deposit. Addi...
Allie was awesome! So patient with me and understanding of all my wants/concerns, etc. We saw several places and even places day of posting. I would recommend working with Allie again. Renting in a crazy market made easy.
In this crazy market, we were struggling to find an apartment as everything was flying off the market in a day. Allie was amazing in putting in the research and finding an off-market property. She was extremely efficient, responsive, and a pleasure to work with.
Choosing Tory to be my real estate agent was one of the best decisions I could have made in my home-buying process. Tory is knowledgeable, sincere, smart, and detail-oriented. I'm not sure when she sleeps, but she was always quick to respond regardless of the communication medium. I was moving from Connecticut to Illinois, so there were times when we were communicating from different time zones - yet she was always responsive. I was unfamiliar...
