Greg was great to deal with, I would highly recommend working with Greg for any side of the purchase or sale transaction. My purchase was a more complicated deal to work through and Greg was on top of the different dynamics of the whole process, was very attentive and thourough and easily accessible. Redfin is now my search and purchase site and I have recommended it to several friends as well.

Greg is the best! Very patient and accommodating. He was there for me every step of the way! I would highly recommend him! |
|

We had an extremely positive experience with Greg and Redfin. He was always patient and honest with us through our search which from our limited experience seemed to be a rarity compared to some other sleazy agents we encountered in Chicago. We would highly recommend Redfin's approach to real estate and we believe Greg is the perfect agent for what the company stands for.

Working with Greg was an absolute pleasure. We were first time homebuyers, and at every point, Greg took the time to explain to us the next step in the process and what we'd need to do next. He was also very responsive to our numerous emails and calls. If you're looking for a painless homebuying experience, I'd totally recommend Greg. If Greg were an eBay seller, my feedback would be something like "A+++++ FAST COMMUNICATION WOULD BUY WITH AGAIN." |
|
|
As a first time homebuyer, Greg was very patient and always available when I needed him throughout the home purchasing process. He was honest, thorough, and dependable - bottom line I would recommend Greg to any and all purchaser's.

Our experience with Redfin was great from the start - from the field agent scheduling many, many home tours to Greg walking us through our negotiations as first-time buyers. Greg was always responsive when we asked for comps or had questions. We'll be using Redfin again when/if we are ready to buy again.

Greg was extremely responsive via email and made a point to call when the an issue required more timely/immediate discussion. He is knowledgeable about real estate and the transaction process. Greg endured our nearly year-long search for a home and at our closing we felt we were saying goodbye to more than just our agent but also to a friend. We honestly recommend Greg as a Redfin agent. |
|
|
Greg was very responsive via email and phone and I was able to bounce a lot of ideas/thoughts off of him. I really enjoyed working with Greg and he did a good job of alleviating some of my fears and helping manage my expectations throughout the offer negotiations and closing process (even when I kept pestering him over and over). Thanks Greg!

When push came to shove, Greg moved as though a fire was lit under him - rapid phone calls, quick replies to emails (sometimes within minutes). I have no idea what that man eats for breakfast, but it must be made of rocket fuel. When it comes to negotiating, he is a pit bull. Also, he's very stylish and cooks a mean chili con carne.

Greg was great to work with through the whole arduous process. He was very patient through my many showings, never pressuring me to buy when I wasn't fully satisfied. I love the place that I did settle on. Given that there is less agency conflict with Redfin in general, I felt like Greg worked hard to get me a good deal and give me good information upon which to base my offers. His attention to detail during the contract review period was superb, helping ensure that the seller honored previous agreements. |
|
|
Greg was very honest and insightful in his observations and helped us make responsible decisions during negotiations. He was always available to speak on the phone or email, and ready to answer all the questions we had and always prepared us for the next steps of the process. When we met him at the inspection, during the final walk-through, and during closing he was always there to assist us. Overall we had a wonderful experience and we are very thankful to Greg, Dario, and other staff at Redfin. |
|
|
Greg was a pleasure to work with and he got the job done. There were some hurdles to tackle which he took care of so we didn't have to. He was very responsive to our needs and questions. Our lawyer said this of Greg: "this "no frills" agent stays impressively on top of it." The only ball Greg dropped was getting the Redfin refund check delivered at closing as we requested on the website when we made our offer. Instead we have to wait 10 days. No real biggie. |
|
|
Greg is very professional and experienced. He responded our calls quickly and kindly explained our questions. We had a tough negotiation with the seller. He helped us reach the best possibilities. Unfortunately at the end our loan application hit rocks, he immediately requested to release our earnest money. We had a good experience working with Greg and definitely recommand Redfin services to other people. Thanks.

I would definitely recommend Greg. After one deal that fell through (structural issues) and a second that didn't work out, we finally just executed a contract on a very nice property. Greg has been energetic and enthusiastic through all. |
|
|
Greg was very helpful and communicative throughout the negotiation process. Even though the seller and I were not able to agree on a selling price, Greg was able to give good advice as to how to proceed. When there were any updates on the seller's side, Greg contacted me right away and let me know. I would definitely recommend his services and will use him again if I find another property I would like to make an offer on.

Greg fought Friday night traffic to meet us in a cafe near our home to discuss a property that we were interested in. He was frank about what he thought was a good idea and what wasn't. Greg was easy to get along with. He wasn't pushy at all as a salesman ; we felt he was very reasonable. |

I can't thank Greg enough for his outstanding service!! In short, we were VERY fickle first-time buyers and Greg was a huge help in every aspect of the buying process. He visited a number of properties with us, submitted offers for us on three different properties, and was very positive and supportive throughout our intense and prolonged home-buying journey. Greg's calm attitude and positive demeanor were a huge help and he also went the extra mile via email, text, and phone to keep us informed and educated throughout all of this. Anyone who says that you don't get a 'full service' broker from Redfin, has simply not had the absolute pleasure of working with Greg Whelan!

Greg willingly stayed for our closing that took 7+ hours. He didn't have to stay there for the entire process, but he choose to. That speaks volumes to us as customers and we have recommended Redfin to everyone that's considering buying a home. It's a no-brainer to use Redfin. Thanks for such a great experience! |

When it came time to negotiate our price, he took charge and we got a great deal! I'd definitely recommend Greg and Redfin to anyone! |

Greg swiftly and deftly helped us successfully execute the purchase of our home. We found him to be very responsive, professional, and easy to work with. I would recommend Greg and Redfin to an experienced home buyer looking to do most of the legwork themselves, but needing a bit of advice now and then. |

Greg was monumental in our purchase of a condo in Lincoln Square. He was prompt, amazing with emails, and made us very comfortable in what was a scary first-time buying situation. I would recommend Greg, Redfin, and the team, to anyone who is interested in buying a home. The whole process was super smooth and we appreciate it tremendously. |

As a first time home buyer I had a ton of questions and I found Greg to be very helpful. I would ask for his opinion and I got an honest answer. That was exactly what I needed! |

I used Greg to purchase a two-flat in Chicago. Greg was extremely responsive to my questions and was flexible on scheduling showings. During the contract process, he facilitated discussions with the seller's agent was quick to reply with answers and/or the status of various issues. I would definitely recommend Greg and Redfin. The service level received exceeded that of a traditional real estate agent with the added bonus of the commission rebate.

I like him because he's ethical and non-pushy and has patience with my flakiness. He sold my condo in under 5 months at the end of 2008 and I look forward to buying a new place with him as my agent. |
