We had to find a place quickly since our landlord was moving back into their home. Within two months we were in our new home which was exactly the old farmhouse with land for animals we were looking for Kit reached out to a real estate agent in Wisconsin from Chicago and insured the deal ran smoothly. If we move again, she'll be the first call I make
We own two condo's on Lake Shore Dr. that we use as rentals, and for the first time in 24 years both came up for renewal at the same time and right when we were looking for a new realtor to handle the listings. This totally stressed me out big time as we actually live in Alaska over 3500 miles away, not to mention the 3-hour time difference. However, when we got online and started reading all the amazing reviews on Kit Welch and her teammate Ashley Kammrath, we just knew it was going to be ok if we were to work with them, and it was! In fact, it was so much more then 'ok'. Both Kit and Ashley were beyond helpful, knowledgeable, professional, and involved with literally every single step of the way. And in the end, we now have two awesome renters in our units and we owe it all to the amazing Kit Welch and Ashley Kammrath, who just happen to be the best realtors we have ever had the pleasure of working with and will continue to work with them in the future.
Highly recommend Kit Welch and Baird & Warner, both on the selling and buying side! Kit really knows the Chicago market and what decisions will work best in each situation: selling, buying, renting. She helped us navigate selling a property including specific advice on updates and great connections to get those done promptly. She helped us with negotiations for purchasing the perfect home and wants what is best for her clients. The whole team had expert advice and supported the interests of the client in each situation.
I was introduced to Ashley back in February and I immediately felt a bond. She listened to me. She really listened and really heard what I was saying - what I was looking for in a new home. And as a result she channeled my husband and I through a selection of available homes and in no time we found it. She didn't waste our time. She didn't try to up-sell us. She has a great eye for detail. Her understanding of the various neighborhoods was most helpful. If you're thinking about buying or selling a home I would recommend Ashley. Thanks for everything Ashley!!!!
Kit Welch is an outstanding real estate agent! She really went above and beyond throughout our process of purchasing a condo. Kit was always available to quickly answer questions and advocate on our behalf. She is well connected and her love of all things Chicago is evident! I highly recommend Kit.
If you're looking for a Realtor who really listens - Ashley's the one. Downsizing from a house in the suburbs to an Evanston condo was a difficult process for us; but Ashley listened to what we were saying. I said "a space that was unique - not what everyone else had" and my husband demanded "no 3rd floor walk-ups". With those requests in mind, we closed on the perfect spot.
Kit was very helpful in finding me an apartment to rent. She was easy and fun to work with, very knowledgeable about the territory, and a great person to bounce things off of and point out things I may have missed. She gave me great tips for making my offer more attractive to the landlord, and I got the apartment I wanted, in the area I wanted. I couldn't be more satisfied.
Kit knew the market well and she suggested a price that was fair to spark interest and the property sold quickly. I highly recommend her!
After interviewing several agents, we chose Kit to sell our home of 13 years - and we're so, so glad that we did - because she took the time to get to know us, understand what our goals were, and see the true value of our unique property. All of her recommendations were spot on, and her encouragement throughout the process helped us feel at ease amidst the many uncertainties and stresses of selling a home. She brings great energy to every meeting, is both professional and friendly, and clearly loves what she does. In the end, we were thrilled to receive a great offer from wonderful buyers on the day of our first open house. Thank you, Kit!!!
Kit is a wonderful agent and we are so glad that we had the opportunity to work with her. We were relocating from Seattle to Chicago and she helped to make our home buying process run so smoothly. We simply cannot recommend her enough- her attention to detail, her knowledge of the Chicago area and her overall friendly and relatable approach is unmatched.
