Here's what our buyers and sellers say...
I chose Christine Tirotta because she has deep knowledge of the local market and many personal contacts with vendors in the area. Beyond that, and perhaps more importantly, she was a joy to work with and walked me through the process as a first-time home buyer. I never felt pressured and always felt supported. Christine was excellent with communication and made a stressful process incredibly easy to navigate and enjoyable. I look forward to recommending Christine in the future and returning to her for any future real estate purchases/sales.
I've known Christine for years and when we needed a pro, I knew whom to call. Anyone can sell a house. Christine sells HOMES.
My family and I wanted to move back home to South Bend after leaving for a few years. We started looking at houses and we were recommended Christine from a mutual friend. Once we called her, we explained our situation that we were first time home buyers and were going to have to look remotely and gave her some of our must haves. The next day Christine was already sending us a lot of houses on the market that met our standards. Within a few days she was giving us virtual tours on a couple we liked (one being the house we'd eventually own) and answering all our questions. She was so informative and honest I knew we were in good hands. By the end of the week we put a bid on our home and we're lucky enough the sellers went with us. From there our relationship with Christine grew. She helped us every step of the way and as we got more stressed, she calmed us down. We asked her so many questions and she just answered them. Her knowledge and patience was everything. I couldn't have done it without her. We will definitely recommend her to anyone looking for homes.
We were relocating for work and Christine gave us a real estate tour during our interview fly-out. We enjoyed her insight, personality and enthusiasm, so we reached out to work with her to find us a home. Her attention to detail and advocacy on our behalf during the purchase process went above and beyond our expectations.
Christine Tirotta did an exceptional job assisting us with the sale of our parents' home. She made the process simple and easy to understand for us, and we appreciated her expertise and patience. Her insights were extremely valuable to us and making the entire process smooth. We couldn't be happier with the entire process.
Christine was diligent in finding a suitable home for me and offered options I hadn't considered.
Christine Tirotta has made every step of my purchasing a home easier. I am relocating from another state and Christine handled the complexities that this presented with ease. She quickly and thoroughly assessed what I wanted in a home, worked with my daughter to find a perfect match, and offered guidance/resources along the way. Any question or concern was met in a respectful, caring, and professional manner. Christine consistently goes the extra mile and I whole heartedly recommend her. It is a pleasure to work with Christine!
Christine is an ideal broker for those who have specific needs and/or those who are unclear about how to proceed. Why? In part bcause she listens deeply and patiently - and genuinely respects (my) her clients' thinking process and priorities. Christine was entirely responsive to my needs and brought her knowledge and experience to the conversation empowering me to make informed decisions. She also patiently listened and provided ideas and resources in areas where I was uncertain and needed to "think out loud" about the process of preparing my home for sale and my plans for what was next in my life. Christine's kindness and professionalism made me look forward to our meetings and the otherwise very stressful process of preparing a 100 year old home for sale enjoyable. Despite a relatively last minute decision and needing to move quickly with changes in the market, I experienced way more ease than stress. I was confident in how we marketed and prepared the property, proceeded with responding to potential buyers, and ultimately negotiated and finalized the sale in a very timely fashion. Christine was always available, even when out of town. Her patience with a few anxious moments - giving me the space to work through my tendency to overthink - was evidence of her people skills and experience with all manner of clients. Christine knew the unique factors of the Near Northwest Neighborhood, as well as old homes generally, and utilized her network to support both preparing the home and bringing the perfect buyer to the table. The out of state buyers made an offer based on Christine's excellent and thorough video - mentioning at the walk-through that it was exactly what they expected based on the vidoeo! I cannot say enough good things about Christine Tioratta as a human being you can trust, and a business professional who will conaider your best interest in a way that in my experience is not to be expected of all realtors or their agencies. Two thumbs up!
Christine provided wise counsel to help us know how and when to list our beloved home. She was a great communicator and helped to make the showing process straight forward and stress free. We know that through her efforts our home will be cared for by just the right buyer.
Very friendly and helpful.
