Sharon is a terrific realtor. We gave her a list of specifications for our next house and despite the specificity of what we wanted, she found us the perfect home. She is a great communicator with a large network of tradesmen and services that helped us out immensely. Her skill set reflects her many years in the business with deep knowledge of the real estate market. I highly recommend Sharon Gidley for your home buying and selling needs.

Marta – Algonquin

We recently sold our home in Algonquin, Illinois. Sharon was our realtor and she outdid herself in guiding us through this process. It can be overwhelming to move out of your house of 23 years but with her advice and support the journey was as easy as it could be. Her knowledge of the process, the market, the timing, and the supporting professionals needed for the sale to happen among other things were indispensable for the success of the transaction. I would whole heartedly recommend Sharon for anyone who truly wants the sale of their home to be a smooth and positive experience.

Sharon did a fantastic job for us. She really understands the market. She was right on when it came to pricing the house and provided valuable insight to get the house ready for market. She had great contacts for us to use including carpet cleaning and even the attorney that handled our closing was her referral. The marketing material was very professional and certainly helped us sell the home so quickly. I could not have been happier with the entire process from start to closing!! Many thanks to Sharon!!!

Sharon knows what it takes to sell a home for top dollar. She is no nonsense, clear and concise as to what it takes to prep a home, stage a home, and ultimately sell a home. She knows the market, and priced our home exactly where it needed to be. ($15K over what two other realtors told us). We followed her directions and advice and sold in one day for full asking price. We would HIGHLY recommend working with Sharon to sell your home. You won’t be disappointed.

Sharon has provided us excellent service during our journey of selling our home and purchasing a new one. She was great to get back to us immediately and gave us great guidance and advice during the process. We did not know her prior to selecting her as our realtor. She was recommended by a  co-worker whom used her and was very impressed with her as well. This is our 4th home we have sold and purchased and by far, Sharon has been the best of the realtors we have dealt with. I would highly recommend using her for her experience, knowledge of the areas she deals with, responsiveness and guidance through the negotiating process. You can’t go wrong using her!

Travis – Lake in the Hills

From inception to completion, our experience was beyond our expectation!! Initially, I had reservations about the listing price of our house being too high. However, Sharon’s knowledge of the local market and the condition / appearance of our house proved me wrong. She was able to get us the best price in excess of the listing within 6 days of it being listed!! If we had any questions during the process, she responded immediately with great guidance and advice. I can’t say enough about the overall service we received and am truly impressed. We will definitely use Sharon again as necessary and refer her to family and friends in need of an excellent real estate professional.

Eric and Lindsay – St. Charles

Sharon and her assistant Kelli were absolutely incredible. She established trust early on by steering us away from a more expensive property in a less child-friendly neighborhood. She is also an aggressive and talented negotiator, advocating for us at every turn, recommending exact counter offers, and ensuring we received the best deal for the property we purchased. We would recommend her without hesitation and would gladly use her again should we have to move in the future.

Sharon sold our first house for us 16 years ago in 48 hours and has proven herself yet again as we closed again today on our second house with Sharon after accepting an offer in only 5 days! She is the BEST at what she does! She knows exactly what to tell you to do to make your house market ready…the best time to list…the best way to market…and the best price to ask. She gets the job done…and she gets it done quick! Why mess around with the rest, when you can have the proven BEST!

Thank you, Sharon.  We so appreciate your professional attitude and the efficient way you conduct your business.

Terry and Chris – Algonquin

When we looked for a realtor to sell our family home, we interviewed 6 different realtors, all from different agencies.  We asked them standard questions so we would be able to make valid comparisons across the group.  We selected the 6 based on multiple recommendations from friends.  Sharon Gidley and one other agent were far more professional and better informed than the others.  Sharon was more established in the area and had a more effective support structure in place.

We were delighted with our decision to work with Sharon.  She was selling our unique property in a difficult market.  Her enthusiasm for the job didn’t diminish over the extended selling cycle. She achieved a higher sale price than half the interviewed agents thought was possible.

Sharon and her assistant were professional at all times.  We were well supported through the sales process.

We have no hesitation in recommending Sharon Gidley to anyone looking for a professional and committed realtor.

Sharon helped us through a difficult closing with two divorcee’s fighting. She is a class act! I was not able to attend all of the showings so she went with my wife and then again when I could get off work. She showed great knowledge of the area and was instrumental in our decision.

The title Real Estate Professional describes Sharon Gidley to a “tee”. She is expert in the local market. She listed my house, helped with presentation ideas, was spot on asking price, and handled all correspondence in a quick and efficient manner. The best part is I had a contract in 6 days! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing Real Estate services. Thanks Sharon!

At a time when the real estate market was so difficult to be in, my wife and I needed a top notch agent who was knowledgeable and able to persevere through a lengthy process.  We had to short sale our home, which meant not only financial stress, but emotional stress as well. We found Sharon to be an outstanding agent who “never gave up” throughout the ordeal! We would like to thank Sharon for her dedication to what was eventually a respectable conclusion. Best wishes to Sharon as a successful RE/MAX agent.

Don and Jody – St. Charles

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Sharon a while back when we moved to Illinois from Iowa. She was absolutely a dream to work with and was very patient with us as we learned a lot about “real estate – 101”. On our third trip back for house hunting we were able to strike a deal on a new house that was still under construction. With less than three hours before our flight back home Sharon took the time to assist us in selecting all the final details from carpet, paint, cabinets and flooring. Even after all these years we still stay in touch. That’s how fantastic she is.

She is truly professional, knowledgeable and will go the extra step to make sure you are getting exactly what you want. Sharon is by far a Five Star realtor in my book.

Thanks again Sharon for being there for us.

John and Judi – Lake in the Hills

We want to thank you for the professionalism an expedient manner in which you executed the recent sale of our home.

After consulting with other REALTORS we became increasingly frustrated with the lack of enthusiasm and apathy on their part. We spent 20 plus years in this home and have wonderful memories that made this property at home, not just another house. It was a great relief to find you Sharon, who understood this, and did not treat the listing is just another property be to change and Stage for the benefit of competing in today’s market.

We really appreciate your knowledge of the real estate market and how quickly you put together the listing package. After spending just a few minutes with you there was no decision to make, we wanted you as our listing agent. We are convinced that the booklet you prepared regarding our listing with a reason for the success of the instant sale. The booklet was very professional and a great marketing tool. You are to be commended!

We both think you’re a true professional and we are so thankful we found you. You can be assured we enthusiastically  recommend you to anyone we know considering selling or buying in this area.

Thank you for all your hard work, your patience, and your encouragement as you worked with us to choose and buy this home. You have just been great, and the whole process was made smoother do to you. We are especially grateful to have made it in before school started – with only 3 weeks to work with!
We are all very happy with the house and the neighborhood. Erik and I sometimes walk through the house shaking our head saying “I just can’t believe it”. We are truly delighted thank you for helping him make it possible, Sharon
