" I highly recommend working with Anne Rossley! We relocated from the West Coast, not knowing Chicago very well. Anne cleared her schedule to accommodate our limited touring window, showing us myriad neighborhoods and properties. She was able to get us showings last minute and we bought a great property after 4 days. Not only is Anne an exceptional professional, she is warm, operates with integrity, and gives great recommendations. "

She is first and foremost her client's representative and is incredibly knowledgeable about the market, real estate transactions and the levers you can pull for either buying or selling a home.

" I highly recommend Anne to anyone who requires the assistance of a real estate broker whether to sell or buy a home. I did both when I engaged Anne and I could not be more pleased with the results. Timing was of the essence; we were successful in concurrently managing a sell/ buy. Anne demonstrated the highest level of professionalism and as a veteran real estate agent she was able to meet every challenge with an answer. Anne’s work ethic is unparalleled and her honesty and integrity are without question. Besides all that, Anne is fun to work with – her high energy and enthusiasm are contagious. From start to finish it was a joy to work with Anne. -Lori August, 2014 "

" Anne Rossley was amazing during the entire process and continues to be a great resource! "

- James Gibbs

" Anne has always been a tremendous resource! During the last recession she guided me through selling my home in a very tough market. Not only did my home sell quickly, but we got a great price in a tough market. Part of the reason we sold so quickly was because Anne prepared great marketing materials that really showcased the unique attributes of my home. Anne’s follow up service was.top notch as she helped nervous owners through the process of selling their biggest investment. She even managed to make the process enjoyable! I look forward to working with Anne as I begin the downsizing process and transition to a new home. "

- David S

" I have worked with Anne on multiple real estate transactions and have been very impressed and pleased with our results.

" Anne Rossley is an amazing realtor. She is truly a professional, which is refreshing to see. She is committed to her clients more so than trying to get a quick commission, and focuses on earning credibility with her clients. She has my highest recommendation and I hold her in the highest personal regard. Anne was very quickly able to figure out EXACTLY what I wanted in a property. After one day out she knew what I wanted even better than I did. Her ability to tune-in to her clients is really bar none. She is extremely knowledgeable about practically every structure in Chicago. It's a true learning experience just to take a drive around the block with her. Also, Anne is very responsive and timely. If she says she is going to be there at 9:00 she is. This is remarkable considering how busy she is! Also notable is that she does not delegate out her showings to assistants. She wants to be there to see and learn what her clients like or dislike about each and every property. She is also a great negotiator. I think that because she is so professional she has earned credibility with other agents, which assists in the negotiating process. She is also, however, practical. She takes a very analytical, fact-based approach in helping to determine what price to offer/pay for a property. For the properties I was most interested in she ran extremely detailed spreadsheets and comparables. She must have spent hours preparing detailed comparables. She is also realistic though -- and will tell you when something is out of your price range. For example, for one property I was particularly interested in and knew I would be interested even before the showing, Anne had done so much research about it in advance she knew more of the key information about the unit and building than the listing agent--no kidding. I really can't say enough about Anne. She is an amazing realtor and kind, empathetic, and ethical person. "

- Kay

" Thank you, Anne Rossley, for guiding me through the rigors of selling my home, scouting and selecting my new home, and finding peace while remaining true to my principles--all the while holding on to the keep-an-eye-on-the-prize optimism. I truly admire your wisdom, perseverance, professionalism, and humor. I could not have done this without you! "

" Anne makes the buying and selling experience a pleasure and knows how to make it happen and meet and exceed expectations, Great to work with and understands the market and her customers. Win win! "

- AGW I

" WOW! Anne is truly the perfect realtor. First, when I reached out to get acquainted she responded within the hour to set up a phone call. Second, when I wanted to see our absolute DREAM home on a Friday night at 6PM (I had to fly into Chicago) she did not hesitate at all to use her personal time. Third, when I needed to compete with two other offers Anne helped me craft the most desirable yet fair offer to WIN the deal!!! Next, she walked us through all the paperwork and appointments from offer to close, ALWAYS responding quickly for 60 days straight. (Super important when you are negotiating.) Anne also had an INCREDIBLE team - our attorney, our lender, our inspector were all amazing to work with and had our best interest at heart. It is obvious that Anne has many years of experience from her professionalism and punctuality, to her real estate knowledge, to her ability to explain/coach you through the process. Choose her for your realtor needs and you WILL NOT be disappointed :) "

- Sheradin F

" Anne was great to work with and advised us every step of the way. Even though we had a smaller listing, I felt like we had her undivided attention and was impressed that she made a point to be at every showing. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Anne again. "

- Megan

" You are SO wonderful. You are an amazing realtor, but more importantly you are an amazing person. My sincere thanks and gratitude for all you have done. Please keep in touch. "

- Lisa

" Anne led us to exactly the type of condominium we were searching for, but also enlightened us by showing us some types of units and areas we had not considered. This allowed us to make a quick, educated and extremely confident decision. Anne provided the perfect amount of counsel and guidance......and made the process fun! Her knowledge of the areas and her many years in the industry were invaluable. Her handling and expertise of all negotiations was done with perfection and utmost professionalism. I would recommend Anne to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. "

- Carol

" We started with our agent from the city (Anne Rossley) who professionally led us to a different agent to sell our suburban home. Anne helped us with getting the process started. She then carefully selected an agent who knew our home's market as well as someone who had expertise with a little higher priced homes. Denise Gill was professional, kind, a great listener and a terrific negotiator. I would recommend both of these ladies to anyone who was looking to sell their home or purchase a new one. We have used Anne in the past for a city purchase and will be doing so again. We have been fully satisfied and impressed with both of their work, efforts and suggestions. "

- Nancy

" Officially, my wife and I moved to Chicago in June. In reality, she had relocated here in February for work, and I followed in June with our dogs. Moving 1000 miles is stressful enough, but combine that with being separated for 5 months, selling one house, long-distance job hunting, and buying a new place in Chicago, combined it about put us over the edge. This is where Anne comes in to the picture. She worked around my wife's work schedule to not only show her houses, but neighborhoods as well. Anne spent the time to get to know us and what we were looking for. Never did we feel like we were being a problem or a nuisance to her, even when we were asking crazy neighborhood or commuting questions. In the end, Anne found us a great house in a great neighborhood. Through her seemingly endless contacts, she also played a huge roll in getting me my job here in Chicago. We can't thank her enough! I would recommend Anne to anyone. She possesses tremendous knowledge and information about Chicago's housing market and Chicago in general. She is a true professional. - Brad "

- Brad

" Anne gets it done. She sold our condo @ asking price after first showing! WOW! She is a pro! We have worked with many realtors in buying and selling properties over the years and you cannot find a better resource than Anne. She is great @ what she does and in addition to her professionalism she is a gem and pleasure to work with. Best get it done attitude with a smile and then some! "

" Anne Rossley is a professional in every sense of the word. She knows the market, is a skilled communicator and is relentlessly helpful and upbeat. Thanks to Anne, we sold our apartment for top market dollar in less than three weeks even though the immediate neighborhood has been hit hard by COVID and two rounds of looting the summer of 2020. We have and will continue to recommend her to neighbors and friends. Anne is truly a class act. "

- Kathy Brock

" Anne Rossley invented her particular brand of real estate consulting which is comprehensive, customized, creative and dazzling. Every aspect of the real estate transaction can be guided by Anne’s depth of experience, wide range of knowledge, marketing brilliance, technological proficiency, social media savvy, and unifying negotiation skills. Anne is much more than a real estate agent and from the minute her clients meet with her, they know they are in good hands. I have worked with Anne since 1995 when she was managing agent for a new condominium project and I was the mortgage broker in charge of mortgage loan project approval. She was a lightning rod for getting the impossible done and I marveled at her “can do” attitude against all odds. She repeatedly amazed me with her creative solutions, new methods for efficiency, problem solving, and new ideas. I later became a real estate client, both for a property sale and purchase --- including residential and commercial. She thinks ahead to what is needed and answers questions even before they are asked; all resulting in a seamless transaction. Anne brings something unique and incredibly special to each property and to each client. For her sellers, she “sees” the property for the best way it should be marketed and moves quickly to devise a plan including design ideas for the interior and exterior. She is known to stage and move furniture herself with brilliant results captured perfectly in the property’s professional marketing photographs. Her comparative market analysis is realistic yet the highest possible. Her marketing pieces are stunning and sent to exactly the right target market. Her warmth, smile and approachability add more wonderful touches to the sales plan, particularly during open houses. Anne winds up every project by having flawless closings. She contemplates potential concerns before they become issues and kindly but firmly negotiates even the most complicated contract terms. Anne will astound you with the depth and breadth of her professional knowledge and services. And when you meet her, shake her hand and feel the radiance of her smile, you will know you are working with exactly the right real estate agent for you! "

" I highly recommend Anne to anyone in search of a real estate agent. As a first-time home buyer, she helped me through the entire process, and connected me with other high quality professionals (attorney, lender, etc...). She was very knowledgeable, and was able to answer all the questions I sent her way. She also helped me identify what I was looking for, and was extremely easy to work with. "

" Being new to Chicago and a first time homebuyer I didn’t really know where to start in my home search.

- Tripti K

" We were relocating from Texas to Chicago and had never been to the city before. Anne was incredibly helpful in our quest to lease a condo (as well as providing the city’s history and tips to living in Chicago). After our initial chat of what we were looking for, Anne recommended a couple areas of town and set up alerts so we could see what was available in the areas. She coordinated all of the appts to look at places and drove us around town with her expert navigation and parking skills. We even had a short time frame to look & lease in, which got even shorter with a very delayed flight. Anne re-arranged the schedule so we could see all of the places we were interested in. I have had poor realtor interactions before… but with Anne I could not have asked for more helpful, more professional experience. Very responsive to all of my questions. We will be calling her again when we decide to buy a new place! "

- Adriana L

" Even though we do not live in Chicago anymore, Anne helped us to find a realtor here in Cincinnati that was able to help us navigate in this amazingly fast-paced market. Anne interviewed several local brokers and referred us to one that helped us find a property that allowed us to place a bid before it was listed! We are very excited to have been able find not just a house, but a property that checked all the boxes but also fit with our timeline. "

- Mike R

" When we first moved to Chicago 20 years ago, Anne took us in hand and found us the perfect house in the perfect location. She stepped us through as first time home buyers and kept all the balls in the air when several years later we became first time home sellers. That is why she is our go-to realtor now. Not only is Anne charming and easy to get along with, she also takes the time to really listen to her clients and learns what is truly important to them. She will also take the time to explain everything to you so you never feel blindsided. She is open and honest and always has her clients best interests front and foremost. "

Each and every time we have been so pleased with Anne's support, knowledge and professionalism from both selling AND buying perspectives! And, of course, we would use her AGAIN! "

- Esterlita P

" I will never forget this market and dealing with the stress of selling a home amid the Covid-19 crisis. Even before that Anne encouraged me to see the market as it was, which helped me detach and move on from a property I was no longer living in. The closing was hectic with doing all of it remotely and yet we made it through. Her direct attitude and yet 'on your side' feeling made it easier for me to get thru a tough process and I know I will look back SO grateful to have completed the sale when we did. Highly recommend! "

- Kerry Kobe

" Dear Anne Rossley,Thank you so much for the outstanding work you have done in the selling of my condominium. As an out of state seller, your extensive experience and insight was extremely valuable to me. Thank you for managing the things you did in my absence until the sale and closing day.I feel confident in a referral of your real estate services to friends and family after my experience working with you. I regret that I did not have the time I would like to have had to meet with you at your office after the sale of the condominium as I had a very narrow return flight turnaround schedule.Thank you again for everything!Sincerely,Adrienne "

In addition to being the local expert, negotiator and responsive communicator, she became close to our family and was very astute about our needs for housing.

She is a shrewd business partner that I would love to have on my side in real estate decisions. "

She lined up over (12) viewings over a 3 day weekend, gave me a virtual viewing (before it became a thing due to COVID!) along with her thoughts, and took the time to explain everything step at length as it was my first time buying a home. Highly recommended as a realtor! "

- Michelle H

" We weren't buying the million dollar condo, not even close but Anne Rossley sure did treat us like a million bucks. It's a difficult market and we had to look here and there all over town to find something that fit our budget in a part of town that we liked. Anne was always happy to show us one and another property until we found what we were looking for in Dearborn Park. And once the closing process began her team was great. We needed a quick closing and they pushed everything for us. I'm so happy we found Anne. "
