  • " Beth's assistance in the buying and selling of houses was greatly appreciated. Her intimate knowledge of all aspects inclusive to the process combined with her willingness to go above and beyond her call to point us in the right direct towards the next step was something we needed as we are not entirely familiar with the real estate subject. She helped us both find our forever house and sell our old house very quickly. I doubt we could have done it so seamlessly without her help. My gratitude will forever be hers. " - J.

  • " I highly recommend Joey Nelson of Cris Realty as your next real estate agent.
    Last year Joey was my listing agent, and sold my eight unit commercial apartment building located in New Lenox.
    Joe takes care of all the important details during the entire process. He is diligent at keeping the sale moving and provides his clients with up to date information.
    He works closely with your attorneys and inspectors to ensure a smooth sale or purchase. Joe will provide expert advice when difficult situations occur.
    Joe is a professional who educates his clients along the way. He’s promptly available to take calls or emails on weekends or even late in the evening. He is always there for you!!!
    I was 100% satisfied with the sale of my property and I am sure you will be too……

  • " Debbie DeGroot helped us sell our home and helped us purchase a new home. She helped us to stage our old home to make it more appealing to potential buyers. Following her advice, we were able to sell our old home quickly at a good price. Our requirements for our new home were demanding, but Debbie took on the challenge. She listened to what we needed from start to finish and found a perfect new home for us. We are so grateful to Debbie for her above-and-beyond assistance in our down-sizing transition.

  • " Karen was amazing ! We became clients by chance, and she never stopped working for us. Even after the close of our home, Karen was checking up on our purchase. She was attentive, extremely knowledgeable about real estate, contract work, the selling/buying process and everything in between. She always made herself available and would answer texts and calls right away. I can say she made the stressful process of buying a home much easier. I can’t recommend her enough!! " -
  • " "Karen went above & beyond in every aspect of the sale. Her many years of experience were evident in her preparations from listing till closing. 100% professionalism is what you will receive if listing or buying with Karen. She comes highly reccomended! Thanks again for a job well done." " - Gary Moore @ 12/14/2021 07:37
  • " I highly recommend CRIS Realty. We interviewed several Real estate agents to help us sell and purchase a new home in Frankfort. We chose CRIS based on a friend’s recommendation and on their market knowledge of the area. It didn’t hurt that it's a locally owned company in Frankfort. On the sale side CRIS had our home under contract for over asking price with multiple offers in just a few days. They did a brilliant job of marketing. It seemed it was advertised everywhere. Professional photos, newspaper ad, all the Real Estate websites, Social Media, etc. They even helped with Staging advise before it was professionally photographed. It was a record sale price for our neighborhood. On the buy side we had some strict requirements and were having a hard time finding what we were looking for. CRIS called several of the top agents in the area and found a home that was already under contract, but we were able to bump it because of a sale contingency. Our appraisal came in much higher than the purchase price so we already have good equity in our new home. CRIS picked up the phone every time we had a question. CRIS had great recommendations for mortgage lenders, home inspectors, and movers. If you are considering buying or selling don’t waste your time interviewing other agents just call CRIS.

  • " We worked with Joey to sell our home and it went flawlessly! Joey made sure the listing was perfect and went above and beyond to make sure every showing was followed up to get the buyers insight. He never missed a call and answered the buyers agents emails/texts within minutes, even at night and on the weekends. I highly recommend Joey to anyone that is looking to buy or sell a home!

  • " It is my pleasure and honor to write this review for Cris Realty. Dave and I have used Rick and Sandy Criscione for the past 20 years on each home we have bought and sold. Personally and professionally they have gone above and beyond to make the experience flawless and extremely professional. Cris Realty is creative, patient and gives sound advise on how to sell your home for the best price. Sandy and Rick have lived here and know the area extremely well. I have recommended them to all of my family members and would highly suggest using them if you want to sell or buy a home. " - Connie Trevarthan @ 11/22/2019 10:20
  • " Karen Nelson is a fabulous realtor! Her experience and knowledge of homes in our area allowed us to receive top dollar for the sale of our home. I had moved out of state prior to putting the home on the market and Karen made it all so easy from signing the contract to her being at the home to let workmen into the home. I highly recommend Karen! " - Colette Montelione @ 05/18/2022 01:33

Because of their great knowledge of the market around us, they were able to get us more for our house than we expected to and they showed much patience helping us find our perfect forever home. I have and will continue to recommend CRIS Realty to anyone in the area looking to buy and/or sell. They are a phenomenal agency. " -
