One of the best indicators of how well I perform is the satisfaction of my clients.  Here are some thoughts from a few of my clients:

“Like many, we were nervous and ambivalent about putting our home on the market. Craig was the answer to all our worries and fears. His reputation and track record speak for itself. When Craig puts the “For Sale” sign on your lawn he is making a commitment to you to get the job done right! His steadfast devotion to his client shines through at all times; whether it be in his never ending marketing abilities or in the fact that he is always approachable and accessible. Our home sold in just 6 days! Then Craig found us our new home 1 week later.”  -- Dave and Aisling Ritter (buyer and seller)  

“Even when you were out of town we were in contact.”-- Travis and Monica Francis (buyer and seller)  

“Craig is extremely professional. We liked the e-mail updates and advertisement/marketing of the house on the internet/website. Craig responded to all our needs/questions very promptly. We appreciate all he did to help us sell our house FAST!” -- Name withheld by request  

“You did an excellent job, thank you so much for everything.” -- Orlando and Marissa Santos  

“After having problems with a REALTOR®  in the past, we had our reservations about dealing with another REALTOR®  but your performance was top rated. Thanks for all your effort and hard work.”-- Geoff and Kelli Lo  

“We were very impressed with the level of class and knowledge provided from the first interview all the way to after closing. Moreover, you were able to sell our house in less than 30 days. We are truly impressed and pleased and have already recommended you. Thank you!” -- Bill and Jean Durbahn  

“Thanks for all your help. We truly enjoyed working with you. We learned a lot about Naperville and are happy with where we ended up.” -- Adam and Krista Smith  

“We were overwhelming satisfied.  As first-time buyers you educated us, informed us, and essentially held our hands throughout the entirety of the purchase process.  Any future buyer or seller will, in  our opinion, will not truly know what “best-in-class” service is without first meeting with you.  Three weeks into our first home, we already know who we will turn to when the time to buy comes again.  Thanks a million, Craig." -- Jameson and Jamie Eisnemenger  

“I feel you did an awesome job selling our house.  You are an excellent REALTOR® and if we would have stayed in the area, I would have bought a house from you, too. You were upfront about the time it might take to sell the house, and we appreciate that, too.  Everything went as smoothly as you said it would. Thanks again!  -- Jeff and Robin Wlas  

“After interviewing Craig Smyser , we decided that interviewing other real estate agents was not necessary.  Craig Smyser truly sets a new standard in real estate.  His professional marketing program brought in the buyers quickly.  There really is no reason to use any other agent. Craig was accessible all of the time. He was extremely knowledgeable about every aspect of the home selling process.  Craig was the most helpful real estate agent we have ever experienced.  He remained in constant contact, even after the “sold” sign went in front of the house.  We would recommend Craig Smyser to anyone who needs real estate assistance.  We would like to see Craig licensed in more states so that we could work with him when we sell this house.  He is one-of-a-kind, the best at his job.  Thanks, Craig, for exceeding all of our expectations.” -- JoAnn and Mike Louer  

“You did a very good job and helped us out a lot. Thank you very much.”   -- JP  

“I think the marketing was outstanding.” -- JCR  

“The home sold more quickly than we anticipated.  Everything was handled well for us in that we were relocated to Arizona.” -- Name withheld by request  

“We were impressed with your efficiency in getting the condo on the market and your market program - the virtual tour and internet pictures were excellent.  We thank you so much for arranging for the painter and fixing the ground cover.  Since we were out of town, your attention to detail and helpfulness was impressive. You always kept us informed and Joe was impressed that when he called, you usually answered the phone. It was great doing business with you and we would recommend you highly. Good luck in your profession. You are truly a professional and trustworthy.” -- Joe and Linda Taylor  

“You made our first home buying experience easy, we appreciate everything you did for us.  Thanks, Craig!”  --Jason and Gen Balcerak  

“Great job!  We appreciate it.” -- Steven and Julie Rydzewski  

“You were very helpful, courteous, and professional. I had a previous agent who didn’t do anything except the MLS listing. I know your services and marketing program is what led to my sale.  And the use of your truck is a great benefit and incentive.” -- Danny Sama 

“Great job, Craig.  Everyone I know in Naperville was told to use you.” -- Mike and Rose Romesburg  

Your real estate agent is a key member of the team responsible for making sure your transaction goes smoothly. Once you’ve made a sound decision to use Craig Smyser for your home sale or purchase, ensure the rest of the team is up to the task by using his carefully chosen professional associates in legal, financing, and home services.” -- Steve and Susan Stefanovich

“Since we were out of town, we loved the online status report.  It let us really feel ‘connected’.  We really appreciated the trips to the house to clean up the loose ends.” -- Jeff and Margaret Marquis

"Thanks Craig!  Your professionalism, attention to detail, patience, and most of all, responsiveness were greatly appreciated.  We've been through several Realtors in the last few years and the biggest complaint we've had about most is their failure to respond to a request or call us back in a reasonable time.  You were very good about that and very willing to work with our schedules."  -- Bill and Lindsay Young

"We first met Craig by e-mail.  He went out of his way to send apartment information, helping us locate a wonderful apartment without any high pressure to pursue a real estate relationship.  Craig is everything he states himself to be and more!  He is a true professional.  He is honest, hardworking, and takes his profession and desire to help you with your real estate needs seriously.  He listens to you and responds accordingly.  Craig was also very helpful in our finding our way around the community and with suggestions of possible contractors and services once we purchased our home.  It was a pleasure getting to know and work with Craig.  He can be on our team any time.  We would highly recommend him as an agent."  -- Steve and Cheri Matthes

Thanks so much.” --Vinnie Smith and Carrie Dow-Smith
