Shantel Shimkus

Working with Shantel was an absolute pleasure, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. My wife and I were purchasing from out of state, which made everything more complicated — but Shantel handled it seamlessly. She conducted thorough video tours and was always available for discussions, making us feel completely informed and confident every step of the way. What really set Shantel apart was her honesty and market savvy. She steered us away from properties that weren’t right for us — deals that looked good on paper but had issues she caught — and ultimately helped us find a home we love at a great value. Her negotiation skills are top-notch, and she has deep knowledge of the local market. If you’re looking for an agent who truly has your best interests at heart and goes the extra mile — especially for long-distance buyers — Shantel is the one. Five stars, without hesitation.

Shantel is a very respectful person. She answered questions promptly. She was the listing agent and she made sure to be available when needed. She knew the area well, also.

Shantel has been our only realtor for 7 different purchases because she is that good! We always love working with her and will continue to do so!

Shantel is amazing. She is always positive and honest. She wants only the best for her clients. She's a great asset to your team.

We are giving Shantel 5 Starts. She was our buyer agent when we wanted to buy a house for the first time (in the Lombard, IL area). She did a great job on finding listings that matches what we wanted, and being always available for showings. With both my husband and I working full time, she made herself available at different hours and worked around our schedule (something we had a hard time with while working with other agents). She's extremely pro-active without being pushy at all. She did great negotiating for us, we worked with a difficult seller, and she handled the situation very well. She was very professional and a very pleasant person to work with. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for their perfect home.

Shantel was an awesome agent! She helped us sell my mom's home. After the inspection, she went above and beyond to help us find someone to fix some of the issues. It really saved us a great deal of time and research. She kept us informed throughout the process of what was going on. She uses cutting-edge technology to make the process simple and easy, like signing documents. She also helped us by recommending an attorney who was great. If we were selling our home, we would definitely want to list with Shantel again!
