"Do you think you can find us another house just like the house we should have written an offer on, but didn't?
And the next evening the bank accepted an offer?
You know, the house that matched our criteria EXACT and it was in the location we loved and the price range we wanted to spend?
The house that was perfect and we were so excited and didn't want to leave and was imagining where we would put our furniture and talked about how wonderful the walk-out basement would be for parties in the summer?

real estate joliet il: LaNita is one of the most proactive agents that we have ever dealt with. - 07/30/11 10:17 AM
Testimonial...
Lanita is one of the most proactive agents that we have ever dealt with. I never had to follow up with her on anything which is comforting when buying and selling a home. Whenever I was concerned over anything she was great at calming me down. She is a very down to earth person which is not only refreshing but made me feel at home. I would definitely use Lanita again and would refer her to anyone!

real estate joliet il: Joliet IL Real Estate Agents + Joliet IL Real Estate News - REMAX - 10/01/10 08:39 AM
Are you a first time homebuyer and not sure where to start? Do you wonder if you need to find the house first and THEN talk to a lender? Do you know what you should look for in a home that fits your needs now but will be good for resale later?  Does a short sale make sense for you?  If you are renting, and your lease doesn't expire for another 6 months, when is the right time to look? Should I consider a townhome/condo or a single family home?
