Selling a home is a stressful situation. Selling a home you have invested time and energy in, with a renovation and with many unique family memories can be overwhelming. Caroline was a fantastic partner as we sold our Northbrook, IL home to relocate to Colorado. She understood our needs right away - the fact that with 4 children we really couldn't do significant repainting or work -- and that an extended showing period would be really difficult. She offered solutions that fit our needs and desires such as showing the home when we were gone over spring break. Caroline's early inspection allowed us to quickly isolate any issues that might come up upon a seller's inspection and to remedy these issues. She was always available to advise, make suggestions and keep us moving in the right direction. Most importantly we had a difficult negotiation with our buyer. On multiple occasions

On the advice of our physicians and our adult children we decided to move to an assisted living facility near one our children in South Carolina. This required not only selling our home of many years but also finding appropriate means of disposing of its contents accumulated in various locations over almost sixty years of marriage. Fortunately, we met and retained the services of Caroline Gau as our real estate agent to list and market our house. She oversaw all the aspects of preparing it for the steps of listing, staging and showing which led to a rapid and fair offer. But beyond this she brought us into contact with numerous honest and skilled service providers to assist in the surprisingly complex tasks associated with such a major move. We would unhesitatingly and strongly recommend Caroline for her extensive knowledge of the real estate field, especially in the Chicago area,

We just had Caroline sell our second house in as many years, and it was as positive experience in every way as the first one was. In both cases we had other realtors tamping down our price expectations, but Caroline came in with fresh eyes and priced both houses at the level she and we thought was warranted. And then she sold them both within days. And she sold the second one twice (when the initial offer fell through), both times in one day. Though she is definitely a Northbrook specialist, she came up to Lake Vila to sell this latest house, and I would argue that she understood that market better than the local specialists.One of my favorite aspects of working with Caroline is her extensive collection of contacts, trades people, and specialists. And she refers enough people to them that the mere mention of her name results in

We had a wonderful experience selling our home with Caroline. She sat down with us to walk through our options for selling and brought a variety of research to help us establish our optimal sell price. She handled all the details, was quick to respond to any inquiries we had, and kept us fully in the loop throughout the process. Through a variety of marketing and social media, she was able to quickly promote our home and the house sold in a few days for our asking price. Honestly, she made the process so easy - we cannot recommend her highly enough.

I can't believe we were so nervous about putting our house on the market. Caroline assured us each step of the way that this was going to be easy and painless and she was right! She took such care of our house and the listing and we had an offer right off the bat! Within a month our house was listed, sold, and closed on. It was a wonderful experience. I would recommend Caroline to everyone.
