“What do we say about the person who made one of our dreams come true? It's very simple. Thanks to Valerie Gehard! It has only been three weeks since we have been in our house and we already feel very much at home. One day our children are going to grow up in a very safe and peaceful area and it's thanks to Valerie and all her hard work. She maintained a professional and personal relationship with us by keeping us informed of new listings, but most importantly she knew exactly what we were looking for. Above everything we have made a great friend and a relationship to last a lifetime. Again, thanks for eight months of dedication and hard work”

" Tom Reinhofer is an exceptional realtor. He was knowledgable on every aspect of selling our house, as well as on buying our new home. He did an amazing amount of work behind the scenes in order to make both processes run seamlessly. He always responded instantly to our calls with questions. He was extremely attentive, yet never pushy. We used his recommendations on a lawyer, home inspector and mortgage broker. They were all the best of the best. Whenever we thanked him, he'd tell us "I roll out the red carpet for you every step of the way." And he did! We feel very grateful to Tom for the constant care he took to help us through this course, which could have been a nightmare”

“Our experience with Tom Reinhofer was nothing short of outstanding. He listened to all of our needs and wants early in the process of buying our first home, and quickly produced an on-point list of properties. We identified a short-sale listing that was high on our list, and Tom did not hesitate in encouraging us to go after it. Considering we had heard horror stories about these types of transactions our skepticism was high. However, Tom spent a lot of time negotiating with the seller and bank and we closed on the house in 2.5 months and at our original offer price (most were lucky to close on short-sales at all, let alone in less than 6 months). Incredible. We've been in the home for 8 years now, referred several friends to Tom over the years, and even consulted him on potential investment properties. He is a realtor who has the rare level of knowledge, skills and abilities to get the job done. Outstanding negotiating skills. He's also the type of service provider you refer friends and family to when wanting to take care of them.

“When Rose and I decided to downsize from our home in Lincolnshire and look for a 55 and over community, we contacted Tom Reinhofer of Ricke Realty. He helped us prepare our home for sale and researched the market to price our home of twenty years, properly. We came to an agreed price, Tom worked with a professional photographer to help show our beautiful home to the marketplace. At the same time, he began to help us look for a home in an over 55 community. These are not plentiful on the northshore, which meant Tom had to work hard to be able to show us an appropriate and fair selection of residences. The marketing of our existing home was in full swing and we had showings immediately. It was in the second week we had our first offer. Not only did we get our asking price, but the marketing went well enough that Tom was able to get us more than asking within a three week period. Now was crunch time to help us find a home, arrange legal advice for closing, home inspection and for money to close and buy something else at the same time. I must say that Tom handled all of that without us having to worry about anything too much. He arranged everything and all went without any problmes, including the people he had arranged for. This will make your head spin...home inspection, legal advice, bridge loan and closing on both the sale and buying of our new home in Libertyville in a very short time. Thank you, Tom and Ricke Realty.”
