Lisa Byrne - Testimonials

It took a lot of planning and staying on top of our changing parameters but she took it on cheerfully!  There were a couple of times where we made an offer and couldn't go forward.  She handled those tricky situations too.  After we found the home we love it took a lot of negotiating and tracking to make the home move from an offer to a closed deal.  In this transaction she handled scenarios that would challenge any buyer's agent and continued to keep our hopes up.  Well the deal went through but our story did not end there.  We needed to sell our old home and we turned to her again.  This time the process was completed in under 3 months with 10 showings during the slow winter season and a quick offer.  And now Lisa is helping several of our friends buy or sell homes!     -Rekha Narayan

Even if it is a rental. I am not sure how many calls she had and showings she conducted to find a great tenant. THANK YOU Lisa!!

 Her work ethic is equally matched by her enthusiasm and effort. Where many others see road blocks Lisa always finds a creative avenue to meet her clients every need. I applaud her accomplishments and continue to wish her great success.        -John Matthews, Baird & Warner -Managing Broker

Very professional and easy to work with. She really knows her stuff! Would definitely recommend her and use her services again!

She listened to what we needed and led us through the entire sale process. She told us what to do, what to expect, and went above and beyond to get our house listed and sold -- within 2 weeks! Would recommend Lisa to anyone buying or selling their house. Can't say enough. Thanks again Lisa!!

Lisa is a great person and one of her best characteristic is honesty.. She is not out there to just put you in any house. She really takes her time to fine the perfect house for you.

She is so friendly and fun, yet remained professional throughout the entire transaction. She always made sure that we were comfortable with whatever ideas she had to make the sale go smoothly and quickly and was honest when we asked questions or had our own ideas. We have bought and sold several homes in our lives and this was the best transaction yet! The bottle of wine was also a very nice touch! Thank you so much for everything!

She always makes you feel like you are her most important client. We cannot say enough good things about Workjng with Lisa, she is honest and straightforward and works hard to make a what can a stressful experience pleasant!

Her marketing methods and feedback on preparing my home for sale helped sell my home in only three days. Lisa was recommended to me by a co-worker and I would highly recommend Lisa to others.

Lisa is ready to help you in any way possible to make sure the process of buying a home is flawless. She will will help you from the perfect house and once you find the perfect house she will not back down until the house is closed and you are 100% satisfied.

Her knowledge of the process and help negotiating were valuable to me as a buyer.

We chose Lisa Byrne because of her reputation. We didn't even interview anyone else. No need to. She didn't just meet our expectations. She exceeded them in these ways. She acted professionally in every aspect of the selling process. Always prompt, she responded to every inquiry quickly and effectively. She was extremely helpful in helping us navigate pricing. She was positive, down to earth, and just a friendly person to deal with. If you need an agent to guide you through the house selling or buying process, one in whom you can place your utmost confidence, pick Lisa. You will be glad you did.     -Charles Stone

Her knowledge of the local market and her expertise in dealing with all facets of a real estate purchase or sale can't be matched! Lisa is definitely someone you want to work with and can lead you through any potential items that come up when buying or selling a home. The communication was excellent and she was willing to listen and work within our needs. The process of buying and selling a home is complicated, but Lisa's knowledge and the team she works with makes the process enjoyable! Lisa is a dedicated professional who works and advocates on her clients behalf.

I will likely use her to sell my next home this spring !

We appreciate her help in selling our home.

We told the person that we wanted the best in Naperville/Aurora - Lisa was referred to us and she did NOT let us down. Sold in 31 days .. .. excellent marketing and follow up .. . .I am convinced that is what sold our house. She told us what she was going to do and she did it . .. and did it well. .. .Nice job Lisa!!

Lisa was patient, kind and explained everything thoroughly. Throughout she had my interests in mind, provided sound guidance and kept me informed. If I ever buy/sell again, Lisa is the first person I am contacting and will refer anyone needing an agent to her.

We appreciated her efforts.

Would have expected that she would have communicated to me alone as the legal representative of the estate and certainly not inform me as a cc in an email to others. Shocked about this actually.

  Lisa Byrne made the whole process work for us, with her clear explanations of the market conditions, realistic recommended pricing, ideas for staging of the house, professional photography and comprehensive marketing plan.  Once the house hit the market, she never failed to keep us informed of what was going on, always getting back to us with feedback from potential buyers and their agents as soon as possible. Throughout the process, Lisa always worked with us as a team, listening to our input and giving us great advice and encouragement. After only a few weeks we had an offer on the house, and at that point Lisa advised us through the negotiation stage with great effect.  And finally, when it seemed that our scheduled closing date might slip out (messing up our carefully scheduled packing and moving plans), Lisa went the extra mile to get all parties back on schedule for an on-time and successful closing.   We were very glad to have Lisa on our team and would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone selling a house in the Tri-Cities area.        -Su Chen and Steve Meier

! Professional and a friend at the same time. WONDERFUL!!

She helped us get our home ready for pictures and walk-throughs, took the time to tour several properties with us on weekends, and was always available on her cell phone. She was a refreshing change from the typical realtor experience, and we will be looking to her for any and all future moves.

  She was patient while I defined my changing home needs. She is knowledgeable about the market and is an excellent listener.  I appreciate the energy and enthusiasim she displayed during my search and decision. I love my new home!         -K. Burkeen

Lisa has a very outgoing personality and she is so upbeat. We clicked instantly. She knew that I had never sold a house before and she knew it was an emotional sale. Lisa explained the process to me and guided me through it, both the technical part of the sale as well as understanding my emotional connection. Lisa is the utmost professional, operating at a very high standard. She handled things very timely, always quick to return calls and respond to texts and emails. I purchased a house in another city, so, Lisa could not represent me. Through the buying process I thought many, many times how much I wish I was working with Lisa. I know things would have gone much smoother and that it would been a much more positive experience. Lisa and I made a great team.. I highly recommend her and am so thankful for her guidance, expertise and friendship through a difficult time in my life.

Through that time she has assisted us in renting our home. Lisa has now sold our home in record time . We have recommended her to several friends who have very high regard for her professionalism and knowledge of the Real Estate market. Lisa’s personality is great factor in dealing with people. She really likes the challenge of selling and helping with purchases.. We recommend her highly.

She works thoughtfully and creatively to make sure everyone is happy with the outcome of the transaction. She is a consummate professional and her success is well earned!

We have worked with Lisa as our realtor 4 times in the past 5 years. Lisa has not only helped us to sell and buy a home, but also to rent out our home. We can always trust that she is going to work hard on our behalf. She has a lot of knowledge of the market and is responsive, trustworthy and reliable. I would highly recommend Lisa and will definitely use Lisa in the future.

I would recommend her to anyone / everyone.

She was very helpful in answering our questions and did so in a timely manner. I was very impressed with her work ethic. It was very nice to work with her and would definitely do so again. Steve Webber

At our first meeting she suggested certain improvements we could make to help make our property more marketable and it worked! She also helped us find our dream home! We are so grateful to have the opportunity to work with Lisa and her team!

  I am also working with her now to buy a condo.  On the purchase side she knew the market and where to find the homes that I would like.  It was uncanny how much we were in agreement on how suitable each home would be for me.  She learned my tastes and helped me to find them.   On the selling side she stepped up to the plate and made suggestions that helped my home sell in eight days… and in a poor market!!  She was helpful in finding contractors to meet the requirements for the sale and in expediting the closing.  There was not a question for which she couldn’t find an answer.  Lisa has a bright personality, is a pleasure with whom to work and very knowledgeable about the real estate market.   I love to work with her.”         -Michelle Schultz

Very quick to respond throughout whole process. Friendly, Knowledgable and high expertise.

She communicates so good with us. We were so luck to have her as our agent. And we were so fortunate to sell our first house in 3 weeks. It is like a miracle. Thanks Lisa.

We had to move in a very short period of time and needed someone who was knowledgeable and could act on our needs quickly. We immediately trusted Lisa's instincts and she always made us feel like we were top priority. She was energetic, accessible, a wonderful communicator and the ultimate real estate professional!  Lisa always acted in our best interest, and handled our negotiations with finesse and integrity. The highest compliment we could give Lisa is that not only was she the best real estate agent we've ever worked with, but she demonstrated that she's also a wonderful person. Baird and Warner has a true gem in Lisa Byrne!   -Kim and Pete Hinzy

I would recommend her services to anyone.

Without a doubt, her number one strength is her responsiveness. We had neighbors also selling their houses and we would sometimes hear complaints of them not being able to reach and/or hear back from their Agent, we never, ever experienced that with Lisa.

My husband and I are so happy to have worked with Lisa on finding our dream home. Lisa was such a valued resource and hub of knowledge throughout our entire process. We can't think her and Baird & Warner enough for all of their help and expertise. It's truly empowering to have a great team on your side!

She was very communicative and clearly knows her field!

I intended to use that broker again for this purchase. However, my wife and I met Lisa at an open house she was hosting and we were impressed with her from the beginning. We were very happy with Lisa's responsiveness and her effort to accommodate our schedule. We will recommend her to anyone we know who is looking for a new home.

We do recommend her to anyone. Very happy with the results. Wonderful person. Excellent professional.

She was very helpful when we needed to make some minor repairs and keeping the place show ready.

I was an out of state seller and Lisa made it all possible. She arranged all of the repairs, inspections, etc for me. She is an excellent communicator and great negotiator. She takes care of ALL the details, both major and minor. On top of all that, she is a super nice person. I can highly recommend Lisa and have never had another realtor in her league.

   As you get to know her you learn her drive matches her energy.   However what is most impressive about Lisa is her commitment to serving the clients.  She truly approaches real estate with a “heart of service”.  It is very rare to find a top performing agent as truly customer centric as Lisa Byrne.       -Bill Gill,  Baird & Warner - Managing Broker

As you know, it was a very difficult situation for us trying to sell our house and living 1000 miles away.  As soon as we met you, we both felt you were the only choice to represent us. Your positive attitude was so refreshing in this market. You went above and beyond what we expected.  You gave us great advice and hope, always were available to talk and got a contract in 2 weeks time!...You far exceeded all expectations when you were recommended to us. You live up to the expression  When the going gets tough  -  the tough get going!         -Dody and Brian Susslin

Her expertise and guidance were exactly what we needed and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!

She is knowledgeable, patient, polite, prompt, thinks outside the box and makes you feel like you are her only client when I know she has multiple things going on. I will refer Lisa to anyone looking at buying or selling. She is a true professional.

I would highly recommend her to anyone!

  As sellers in a highly volatile market, we selected Lisa Byrne over several other Realtors because we were highly impressed with her professionalism, the innovative marketing programs she proposed for the sale of our home, and her outstanding track record.  She did not disappoint. Lisa was incredibly focused, personable, consultative, and persistent at every turn. She dealt with every issue that surfaced, including navigating through city inspection/permit issues, an appraisal error, and a very demanding buyer. Lisa was calm, cool and collected throughout the tough transaction and always came through with several solutions for each challenging situation.  We closed our sale on 3/1/11, and could not have done it without her! She's one in a million.   -Jennifer Bonilla  

You did great in all aspects of the sale.

She knows her stuff and I was very confident in using her not only to sell my home (sold in 3 days) to purchasing another.

She is very knowledgeable of the market. We hired Lisa because of her strong reputation and passion to meet our needs. Thank you Pat and Aggie

We found the perfect home in a super competitive market. Thank you Lisa!

  That was before Lisa Byrne walked into our house to discuss our needs and ideal situation.  She patiently answered all of our questions and provided data and research that helped us become comfortable with our decision.  Lisa led us from the start to not only assist us in selling and buying a house, but also to ensure that we sold our house under the “right” situation and bought the “right” house for our future.  It was clearly evident that she cared about our family.   We expected her to take care of all of those typical real estate functions that Realtors handle and homeowners want nothing to do with.  However it was all of the extra things Lisa involved herself with that showed she is one of a kind.  While all the tangible things she provided us during the process were truly important, it was her professionalism, support and encouragement that got us through.  She seemed to engage every aspect of the transactions in a way that she would if she was representing herself or a family member.  Lisa made us feel like a top priority in her life at that time, and for that we are eternally grateful.  Thank you Lisa!”     -Brian and Lauren Buscher
