I didn't know where to begin when it came to finding an apartment and John helped me every step of the way. I had a lot of changes and accommodations that needed to be met and John accepted the challenge with no hesitation. I was constantly telling him different things that I needed when it came to my apartment and every time he made sure my needs were met. He was patient, kind, and resourceful. He genuinely cares when it comes to finding you the right home and is not afraid to go the extra mile to make sure your needs are met. He is honest and incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to anything from building structure, and code regulations, and knowing where everything is in every neighborhood. I found a home I feel comfortable and excited about and I couldn't have done it without John!
John was absolutely incredible in helping me find a place to rent. You will be extremely impressed with his immediate communication throughout the process and even after finding a place. He's on top of it at all times, He will text you and call you always with answers or tell you he's working on it. Personally, he made me feel like I was his only client, which is extremely difficult to accomplish in such a fast pace environment! His approach and communication are extremely sharp, he was very polite but also straightforward which helps you be efficient with your time. On top of that he has impressive negotiation skills and helped me get exactly the place I wanted, he made it happen! Highly recommended and will continue to work with him and refer him!
I contacted John Charmelo about selling my house in March this year. He set an appointment up to see the house and property right away. The house was a fixer-upper or tear-down. The land that the house sat on was the most valuable. John went to work right away looking at comparable properties in the area. He was very thorough in looking at many of the lots in the area. He listed the house and had numerous open houses. He answered our phone calls right away. He also kept us informed about all that was happening. He was involved in every aspect of the sale. He always had our best interests in mind. I would recommend him in a heartbeat! He was great!
John was incredibly helpful in assisting us in finding our first apartment in Chicago! He found plenty of options within our preferences, proactively communicated with us throughout the entire process, shared his wealth of knowledge on the city of Chicago, and helped us find a place we are excited to call home. Not only did he help us find our first apartment, but he has been invested in our process even post-lease signing and move-in, offering support wherever we might need it. All in all, he ensured our home-hunting process was as smooth and seamless as possible. We highly recommend John for any of your real estate needs!
