What Our Clients Are Saying

Eric, Femie, Fernando and the rest of the team were fantastic to work with from start to finish. As first-time home buyers, we found the experience simple and enjoyable due to the level of care they put into each step. Working with them during a chaotic few months in the housing market made us feel even more confident that we had the right team on our side.The entire team did a great job communicating throughout the process and were always available for questions. Instructions and action items were clear and we fully trusted they had our best interests in mind.We are incredibly happy with our new home thanks to Eric and everyone else at Eric Marcus Chicago Homes!

We decided to move from California due to very high expenses and home prices. Also, we have family and friends nearby in Chicago. My son hooked me up to Fernando who was a great agent. He was very patient and responsive whenever I reached out with questions and completed everything in a timely manner. I'm happy to report that everything went as smoothly as possible.

As a parent of a Chicago college student, I was looking to purchase an apartment to save on dorm costs. On the parent Facebook page of my daughter s school, I saw Bob Copeland s name mentioned several times as a trustworthy Realtor who had helped other students find housing, so I called him. I live in France and was very nervous about choosing a property from a distance without having seen it in person. Patient and responsive, Bob was my steadfast guide and loyal advocate throughout this long-distance process. I could always count on him to accompany my daughter to viewings and honestly explain the advantages and disadvantages of each property to me. In only two months, he helped us find the perfect condo within our modest budget. Going above and beyond, he then helped me set up electricity (not so easy when you live abroad), prepare a lease for my daughter s roommate, and find a contractor to renovate. I am extremely grateful to Bob and am going to miss our daily updates. I am also thankful to Eric and team for their support. I couldn't have done it without them.

I'm a first-time home buyer and Bob, Eric, Amy, and the Eric Marcus team were all very helpful and a pleasure to work with. They were all very communicative and accommodating, no matter the issue at hand or the question. Specifically, I worked with Bob Copeland, who had helped me find two prior rental apartments. Once as a college student a few years back, and another during the height of covid in 2020. Each time he was great, and each time really made the whole process as easy and pain-free as possible. Down the line if I ever make another move, I definitely plan on working with them again and will continue to refer any of my friends that are looking for a place.

Eric was great to work with and was very knowledgeable in both selling and buying a home. I highly recommend him.

Eric was phenomenal on both ends of our sale/purchase. He helped us sell our condo (with multiple offers to choose from) almost as quickly as it went on the market and for much more than we expected to get before we began the process. Then he helped us with a fairly lengthy search due to a combination of picky buyers and unusually sparse inventory that ultimately ended up a house we're thrilled with at a price we could manage. Throughout he was patient about/responsive to our frantic texts, emails, and calls--talking us off the ledge more than once when we worried we might not find what we wanted. We always felt like we were in capable hands. I'd absolutely recommend Eric to anyone buying or selling a house.

Eric is amazing to work with as a realtor. I ve worked with him for over 15 years. He has helped me sell and buy personal property as well as always keeping me informed on investment property. Very personable and takes care of all my needs/questions regarding real estate even when not currently purchasing. I recommend him to all my friends.

Eric is a creative and attentive realtor, and his team is great. My family highly recommends him!

Eric is a very savvy Chicago Realtor with tons of experience. He represented us very well in our first Chicago home purchase. We would highly recommend him.

Eric and his team were excellent. Their virtual staging and photography really helped my apartment stand out. He and kathy went above and beyond to provide support for every detail imaginable. They left no rock unturned, gave great council and always kept things cool while discussing potentially stressful details etc. I couldn't recommend Eric more. Thanks!

Eric was professional and showed us several places within our price range and desired specifications. The process was efficient and he didn t waste any time. He also helped us sell very quickly as we were moving out of town!!! A++

Eric Marcus found us the perfect house for our little family in 2011 and then advised us how to sell it 8 years later. We sold within a week for above our asking price with very little fuss or bother. His advice was on point and the whole process was exceptionally smooth. I cannot recommend him and his group enough.

Hey Eric,I hope you re doing well. I just wanted to send you a note of complete gratitude for your help in selling my condo. Im sure it was not the easiest deal you've ever managed. From the long distance to the crazy tenants to the closing issues. We went though a lot together. You and your team always handled everything smoothly. I am immensely thankful for your professionalism and guidance throughout. Looking back, I am certain that you are the only person that could have pulled it off and I am so grateful for all of your efforts.

Eric was great to work with! He made the process go smoothly, answered all my questions, and I received a full asking price offer in one week. I highly recommend working with him

Eric is absolutely amazing to work with. Exceptionally patient. Amazing at walking a newbie through the entire process. Excellent guidance. Complete knowledge of his area. And open about holes in area knowledge. Willing to help with referrals for closing needs. His team is just as helpful &responsive. Truly going above & beyond. I will refer (& push) anyone I happen to hear about who is looking at real estate to work with Eric Marcus.

Eric helped us find THE perfect house. When we saw it, we knew it was our house. Eric was able to pinpoint exactly what we were looking for. Thanks a bunch, Eric!!

As a first time buyer, I was very nervous about the condo buying process, but Eric made it easy. He was always available, very knowledgeable, extremely patient, and incredibly thorough. He walked me through every step of the process and made sure I understood everything. I have alreadyrecommended him to all of my friends and will continue to do so!

It was very important to get the help and advice from Eric, the apartment I bought with his help was exactly what I was looking for in a location that has been thriving since. I would not hesitate a second to contact him again if need be.

Eric Marcus is one of my business partners and a very well versed real estate agent in the Chicago area.

I know that his continued efforts to remain active with the ever-changinghousing market while staying involved in his client’s goals gives him the know how to operating very effectively! Thank you, Eric.

My short sale was as quick and painless as possible thanks to Eric Marcus. He explained the entire process to me and made it all happen. I live out of state yet had my place on the market, had an offer, negotiated with the lender, and closed in just over two months. I am grateful for hisservices and would recommend him and his colleagues to anybody.

Eric is a fantastic agent! Organized, knowledgeable and trustworthy. I would recommend Eric to all my friends. We really enjoyed working with him. From our first conversation about selling our house to the day we closed and after, he has been nothing but the best.

I was a first time home buyer and knew nothing about the process. Eric was great to work with. He showed me tons of homes (some at short notice and weekends) and was very helpful to work with. I enjoyed putting all my trust into Eric and he did not disappoint. I have already recommended him tofriends. Thanks again!

Our experience with Eric was exceptional. We entrusted him with selling our condo and within 2 months of meeting him we closed on our unit at a great price!!! Eric is very easy going, easy to talk to, and provides excellent advise throughout the entire process. His marketing plan is innovativeand touching. By that I mean, our virtual listing actually brought melancholy with his use of piano music but it was a classy touch. Eric went out of his way to finalize the closing with our local village inspectors! What more can anyone ask for from a realtor. My family and I are grateful to him and Suzanne for their exceptional service in selling our property. I would highly recommend working with him to sell/buy property. Thanks!

Eric was wonderful in getting our Wicker Park condo sold. He is approachable, knowledgeable and efficient. Ours was an out-of-state sale, and Eric kept us apprised via email and phone throughout the transaction. We are very grateful to Eric for making this a painless process!

Eric is the most honest realtor that I have ever met. He has quickly and effectively sold two of our homes for exactly the price we desired. On both occasions, the process was completely stress-free.

Eric Marcus did a great job. He helped us with great suggestions to help prepare our home for sale. He also provided feedback from prospective buyers in a timely manner which helped in keeping us informed as the process of selling the house progressed. I would highly recommend Eric and his teamto anyone looking to buy or sell any real estate

Eric was recommended by the condominium association president because of his previous work with condo owners. We needed to sell quickly since none of us, my sister, brother and I lived in Illinois and we could not manage the property remotely. Based on answers to his questions about ourownership, goals and finances, Eric formulated and presented a marketing plan to the three of us. Eric led us through the whole process from establishing goals to listing, then on to negotiating and closing. The entire process was completed within a few short weeks to our complete satisfaction and enduring gratitude. I highly recommend Eric Marcus to all who need his market knowledge and dedication to customer service.

We think Eric is great! Not only did he help us sell our condo sooner than expected, he stuck with us for 8 long months while we tried to find a condo, attempted to wait out a short sale on that condo and eventually found something better (a house!). We looked at a lot of junk. We appreciated hispatience and guidance in helping us get what we wanted at the price we needed. After trying to sell the condo the year before with another realtor, the difference between that experience and this one was night and day. We recommend Eric to everyone we can.

Eric was our agent as buyers of a Lakeview 2 bdrm condo a few years back. I travel a lot for work. Every time I came off the road, Eric had another set of listings ready for us to tour. Given me hectic work shcedule, Eric guidance and skill was essential in finding not just a place to live, buta home. We are still happily in the same place, 6 years later. He has been our personal "neighborhood real estate guy" ever since then - and was the only agent able to sell a unit in our building in 2010. For 6 years now, he is the only broker I refer for people.We just bought a house, with Eric's great assistance. I till travel a lot, and the market was much tougher, much more competitive, so I think we looked at 100 + houses that met our specs online first, from leads Eric sent us, then we must have seen 50 of those in person. Eric was especially good at helping us through the various comps and several bids on 4 different houses as we found them. We finally found one that we liked and that we were able to bid on in time. We grateful to know such a good broker in this tougher real estate times.

Truly superb agent! We had spoken with multiple agents about selling our property, and they were skeptical the unit would sell, even saying we would lose at least $25k on the deal. After speaking with Eric, we were immediately convinced he could sell the unit and ensure we'd take the smallestloss possible. His expertise in staging, using professional photography, and strong connections with other agents and lenders were, without a doubt, the only reason our deal was completed. Went above and beyond in getting the unit sold. A great, great choice as your agent!

Eric is truly fantastic. He made our first home purchase a great experience. Call him now!

Eric was a great Realtor, walking me (a first-time buyer) through every step of the process. He explained everything thoroughly, helped me secure great financing, and was very accommodating with viewings. He immediately picked up on what I was looking for and tailored the properties to that...Inever felt like he was leading me to something I wouldn't want. Within just a few weeks he helped me close on a great new condo! Highly recommended!

We were very happy with Eric's expertise in the real estate market and his professionalism. He worked very hard to market and sell our home for us. He and his staff were very attentive to our needs and always got back to us on our questions in a very timely manner! I would highly recommend himfor anyone looking for a great realtor in the city of Chicago!

Eric helped me and my husband both sell our condo and purchase a new one in May of 2010. We didn't expect to sell very quickly because of the market conditions, but he managed to sell it in 9 days! He had an impressive marketing plan which is part of the reason we decided to work with him, and itdefinitely paid off. On the buy side Eric was very helpful as well. He pointed things out about places that we wouldn't have thought of ourselves, and he was also very motivated to get us a good deal on the price. He exceeded my expectations as far as responsiveness and flexibility, and he was also somebody that I could completely trust. I would definitely recommend Eric to any of my friends.

I highly recommend Eric Marcus Real Estate Group. We were more than pleased with the sale of our home and would definitely use Eric and his team again.

I am so grateful to Eric Marcus [Real Estate]. While I had a ton of variables during my home search, Eric was my constant and truly my advocate. I trusted him completely and he was always 100% honest with me. His patience and kindness are unparalleled. He has a fantastic team around him that I'd recommend using all of his referrals. I felt very taken care of throughout the process! Thanks a million.
