Cris whent all out and amazed me at doing litle things that I never expected. Cris as a blessing from God. Considering the poor market we did quit well thanks to Cris.

Joe Martin, Inverness, IL, a seller from Inverness, IL
Chris was professional and knowledgeable. His expertise was evident throughout the process. I would strongly recommend Chris to anyone that is looking to buy or sell their house in the Inverness/northwest suburbs area.

J.A., Inverness, a seller from Inverness, IL
Sharon helped me from start to finish including all the little stuff in between. Very valuable were her recommendations for vendors who could help me with minor and major home projects - rather than leaving me to find contractors on my own. I appreciated that she attended showings, all walk-thru's, inspections, closings - both on the buy and sell side.

Excellent, both Sharon and Chris.

Communication was excellent throughout.

Roger Odle, Inverness, a buyer from Inverness, IL
Chris Jacobs was AMAZING! From our first meeting when we discussed the market and our desired location to the day we closed on our purchase, we experienced first class / five star service! Chris was professional, knowledgeable, strategic and always provided us with the appropriate amount of communication. We will definitely leverage Chris and his team the next time we buy/sell a home in the Chicago Northwest Suburbs!

DAVID HAYES, DALLAS, TEXAS, a seller from Inverness, IL

Kathy L., Palatine, IL, a seller from Palatine, IL
Chris Jacobs and his team were excellent during the entire process of selling my house. Chris was always availbable to answer questions and assist with all aspects of the sale. While the house was on the market, I was out of town and I felt comfortable knowing that Chris was handling all matters. Chris clearly communicated with me the progress and was an excellent sounding board when needed. I highly recommend Chris Jacobs!

Chris Jacobs is the go-to go in Inverness area.
He lives and knows the area and easy to work with.

Sales go smooth and both parties seem happy.

Sam S., a buyer from Hoffman Estates, IL
Chris is the absolute best! If youre looking for a home in Inverness or the surrounding areas, you NEED to work with Chris. His knowledge of the market is unmatched. He is extremely professional and hard working. He is an excellent communicator and responds quickly. He knows what hes doing and he always gets the job done. I was in a situation where the sellers had already accepted an offer from another buyer on the home I wanted. Chris advised that I still submit an offer, and also write the sellers a letter with a personal story. It did the trick! The sellers ended up backing out of their first offer and accepting my offer instead. Thanks to him I now live in a home I love that means so much to me. I cant recommend Chris highly enough.

P. Gillette / Inverness Illinois , a seller from Inverness, IL
Excellent, first class and most important to me was that Chris was HONEST! From our first visit to the date of closing, Chris was always available. I truly believe not only did I sell my home, but gained a friendship as well. My hats off to Chris and his staff!! P. Gillette

Rooz, a seller from Inverness, IL
Chris was excellent. Our house was in the market for 5 months before we hired Chris and he sold our house in 2 months. He spend time with us and checked everything in the house and suggested the required inexpensive changes. He recommended the staging and we just followed his recommendations. He is professional and has good attitude. He knows what exactly needed for selling the house fast. He sold our house with a good price and I am happy that I hired him. I will definitely recommend him to everyone.

Sue Sessa, Inverness, IL, a seller from Inverness, IL
After meeting with several agents, Chris was the most prepared and most knowledgeable of my area, recent sales activity, and had a proven plan for how to approach the sale of my home. As I was leaving town for several weeks, Chris took charge of the staging and all showings without any input from me, a huge help to ensure we went went on the market as soon as possible.

Chris was trustworthy, responsive and reliable, i couldn't have been in better hands and would highly recommend him to anyone considering selling their home.

Sonya Tan, California, a seller from Inverness, IL
Chris is a great agent. He is professional, organized, responsive and knowledgeable of our neighborhood. He is reliable for home owners like us who sell property from out of state. The sell process couldn't go this smooth without him. We really appreciate all his efforts and support.

Could not have had a better experience working with Sharon. She helped us get the house of our dreams.

Phil & Sue Elworth, Inverness, IL, a seller from Inverness, IL
Chris far exceeds what you would expect from a realtor. He helped us navigate a difficult market and negotiated top dollar for the sale. We wouldn't want to list or buy a house with anyone else!

John - Inverness, Il, a seller from Inverness, IL
Chris helped us develop a strategy for the purchase of our new home that worked perfectly and avoided a bidding war.
Chris found a buyer for our house prior to our home being listed for sale and the buyer matched our asking price
We made some construction changes to our new home. Chris referred us to a general contractor who was excellent.
In addition, Chris had a number of other key suggestions that made the purchase and sale process much easier.
Chris is the best

Anthony C, a seller from Palatine, IL
I worked directly with Sharon Molnar and I really cant express in words how she helped us. Sharon is way more than a real estate agent, she helped us think through many variables and helped us navigate something weve never done, right down to an emotional level. This is the 2nd time Sharon has helped me and my family and I intend to contact her and Chris for any future needs I have. Very happy working with both of them and Century 21!!

Chris Jacobs has been a close friend for 15 years. He understands our market and what we wanted. We took his advice and the property sold within two weeks, albeit during a crazy time.

Great work by everyone.

Chris was the best.

JoAnn Inverness, a seller from Palatine, IL
Living in the area for four years, i was aware of Chris through local publications. His expertise in the area was a main draw as well as his sales experience.

The sale of my home actually resulted from an open house. I also received good traffic for the amount of time the home was on the market.

I felt Chris was professional and I relied on his expertise in many areas. He had good recommendations and was open and honest and I appreciated that.

james pivvione, a seller from Palatine, IL
Very pleased

he was awsome!

No matter what your situation, I would highly recommend Chris. He is excellent at his job and will not let any detail slide. He sold my house at a fair price in an extremely difficult market. I would tell everyone to use him!

Laurel Lehman Inverness IL, a seller from Palatine, IL
Just from living in the area for a number of years, it is clear that Chris Jacobs sells a lot of homes. What I didn't know until I began working with him was how much work he actually does. He became personally vested in selling my property. I was able to leave my home fully staged and leave in the middle of winter and Chris handled everything, from checking on my home in my absence to keeping me informed with weekly calls and he was realistic and informed. He always asked me on the calls if there was anything he could do for me, to let him know. He handled the inspections, repairs, and closing, all in my absence. I always felt like I knew what was going on. Chris always made me feel that selling my home was a top priority for him when realistically he had others to sell in the same neighborhood. Chris is the probably the 5 or 6 agent I have used in my lifetime. There is no one that makes the kind of personal commitment and used actual statistics and proven techniques to sell my home. I picked him for his track record, despite having a friend who is an agent in the area. That was a hard decision. It proved to be the best decision. I would highly recommend Chris Jacobs to get the job done while earning his commission. Houses do not sell themselves anymore.

Jim & Monica Biewer, Inverness , a seller from Arlington Heights, IL

We first met Sharon when we called to set up an appointment to see one of your listings. We liked her immediately and wanted to work with her. She responded to our phone calls and text messages immediately. She was also accommodating when it came to showing us listings we wanted to

Sharon was professional and listed our condo immediately. She sold it within the first week. She had sold a house that we had 30 days prior. Our house has been up on the market for four months with little activity. Sharon sold out within a matter of weeks.

Sharon sold two of our properties, and helped us find our forever home. Sharon has been outstanding when it comes to customer service, we recommend her to everyone whos looking for a realtor.

George & Mindy Stoms (Inverness, IL), a seller from Barrington, IL
Chris was phenomenal! He listened to our desires during the pre-planning phase, helped us implement a relevant and effective marketing strategy, responded quickly to all of our many questions, and successfully brought buyer faster than we imagined. We can offer the highest recommendation for his and his team's services!

Frank and Lois Gibson, Palatine , a seller from Palatine, IL
Chris Jacobs is without a doubt the best realtor we have ever encountered. He is a consummate professional. He was at every showing, found and scheduled every ancillary person whose services were required through the sales process, and met each one at the house. Our experience was stress free because of Chris. We would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. And...he sold our house in 11 days, while we were out of the country!

robert chilson . inverness,il, a seller from Barrington, IL

Richard Mruz. Inverness, a seller from Palatine, IL
I wish I would have hired Chris when I first put my house on the market as I feel my house would have sold much quicker. But I am thankful that I found Chris and he sold my house in a short time. Chris is the best.
2017
Nancy Willis. Inverness,Il, a seller from Palatine, IL
We selected Chris initially because he had sold several properties on our street, some more than once. We felt confident that he knew the market in our neighborhood . Our experience with Chris was a pleasure from the beginning to the successful closing. He is a consummate professional in every way - always returned calls or e-mails in a timely manner, answered questions in a straight forward way, and fairly assessed the strengths and weaknesses of our property. We felt confident of a good outcome with Chris and it's easy to see why he is the number one realtor in Inverness!

Ben Douglas Gay, Chicago Area, a seller from Barrington, IL
I initially listed my house with another Realtor for three months. They were terrible. In three months they only had 3 showings and only had three Realtors at their open house (I asked where are your Realtor colleagues and friends?) I then retained Chris Jacob of Century 21 Affiliated. Super job right away with review and modification of pricing, photos, house staging, advertising and so on. Once listed It was shown about 20 times in two weeks with seven showing on one Saturday. Ended up with 3 offers. During a painful and drawn out wait for buyers to get the mortgage in place, take care of some inspection issues, and so on, Chris was always on top of it all. Very Professional.

Hire Chris if you have a property in or near his sales area.

Dennis Solheim, Inverness, IL property, a seller from Barrington, IL
Chris, when first engaged, told us about his approach and communication approach to us as sellers. Because we moved out of state, we relied on him to help manage all aspects of the sale process. He recommended at home manager that we engaged to help stage and present the house in the best possible way. He kept us informed on other transactions that were affecting our property value in real time. I would definitely recommend Chris to anyone considering either a sale or purchase of a home.
