Sold or bought with George Patrick? Add Review

My wife and I were looking for a specific type of home within a very specific price range. Most realtors didn't even bother to call us back when we told them what it was that we were looking for and what we intended to pay for it. George spent every Saturday morning for a few months with us until finally we had seen enough and decided to go back to start and put an offer in on the very first house that we looked at with him. Not once did he complain or even sigh as we jumped through an unreasonable amount of hoops with the VA process of home financing. He simply did his best to learn about the process and he provided us valuable input on the lending and negotiating process the whole way through. He was ready with great inspector and lender recommendations but even when we chose to go with our own selections, nothing about his manner changed. He was never put off even when we became frustrated with the whole process and wanted to walk away from the whole thing. I remember sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on LSD ready to scream as he calmly explained to me the situation and pointed out several very important things that I had overlooked. If not for George we most certainly would have paid significantly more than we should have. And now that we've had to move out of state due to a job transfer, I only wish that George were licensed in Ohio so that he could represent us as we search for a new home. Because not only did he help us through the process, but he also took time and great pains to make sure that we understood every step of the process and why certain things were necessary or causing a delay. This man does not know what it means to leave someone hanging- he returns calls and emails faster than the Road Runner outwits Wile E. Coyote. I could go on but I'll summarize with this: Best. Realtor. Ever.

Great agent

I cannot say enough good things about the job George did as my realtor. I was referred to George after being dissatisfied with another agent and could not be happier with the decision. First and foremost, George understood what a huge undertaking purchasing a first home was, and went above and beyond to make certain I found a place that I would be happy with. There was no pressure to get a deal done; no pushing me toward places that I was not convinced were for me. In short, he wanted to make certain I found the right place, regardless of the time he spent. After I found the right place, George found a second lender when it was obvious to him the first was on the verge of killing the deal, and worked tirelessly to make sure the second lender had everything needed to get the deal done. Even after moving in, George checked up to make sure everything was okay and any punch-list items had been taken care of. I would recommend George to anyone looking to buy.

George was great!

I spent well over a year looking for a property in Chicago with George. Being an out of state buyer I relied on George to line up properties I could view on short trips to the city. He never let me down. While it took a while to find the right one when it finally came along we had to move quickly or lose it. I based my decision to make on offer on a few photos and the fact that I trusted George's knowledge of how it fit my needs and requirements. He did a fine job of negotiating the deal for me. I was pleasantly surprised and pleased when I finally got to see the property at closing, it was the best of what we had seen to date. Having bought and sold many homes over the years I know brokers that really work with you are difficult to find. I would definitely work with George again.

Best Realtor in Chicago

We could not have asked for a better experience working with George Patrick as our Realtor and felt incredibly fortunate we were able to work with him. George worked very hard to make sure we were comfortable in making our purchase by thoroughly explaining the process, answering all of our questions, ensuring all of our requirements were met and ultimately working very hard to secure the offer for our new home. George took the time to help us find a great investment with his adept knowledge of the Chicago market, was very conscientious and respectful of the budget we needed to work within and showed great patience in our search for the perfect home. I have recommended George to all my friends looking for homes and I know they have had an equally great experience as well.

The best full-time realtor in chicago

I have used agents in the past and they were not full time dedicated realtors. George is a full time dedicated realtor that went every week (above and beyond)for the last 3 months to show properties and submitted numerous offers over and over and did a great job until I found a property that made me money. I highly recommend if your looking to buy or sell George is your guy he knows all areas and has a good grasp of what is needed to sell or buy property. Ill be buying my second property soon with George. He an expert understanding of all real estate areas and how transactions work. If your looking for a realtor that is on your side working for you I highly reccomend you call him

It's so hard to find good honest people these days. This is especially true in real estate taking into consideration the current market challenges. Prior to this review, I have never had someone make enough of an impact on me to write a review or testimonial about them or their product. When you speak to George, you will quickly see the depth of knowledge he has of the Chicago real estate market. George has never once turned down an opportunity to help me out. He has provided me priceless real estate knowledge, helped me rent out my condo, and he most recently guided me through a very challenging new construction purchase. George treats all of his clients as if they were million dollar clients. For that reason, George Patrick is now a household name for myself, my friends, and my family. Looking forward to my next opportunity to work with George.

The Best Realtor I've Ever Had

George Patrick is the best realtor I've ever had. Many realtors are knowledgable, professional, and courteous. What is unique about George is that he looks out for his clients. There have been so many times I could not believe what he suggested or did. He actually took my best interests over his own interests. I used to joke with my daughter, saying that something is wrong with George, because people don't do that anymore nowadays, especially in the business world. He helped me purchased a condo last year for my daughter to live. Because of his dependable character, I decided to purchase another condo this year. George did everything for me and found me a tenant 5 days after closing. I have not even seen the condo yet, because I live out of state. The properties I purchased were foreclosure and short sale. George was efficient and effective in his business strategies. He helped me get great deals. The prices were so low that he really did not get a whole lot of commission. But he always treated me as if I was someone who was buying a million dollar mansion. I would recommend him to anyone. You will not be disappointed. He is a God-sent to me.

I would refer George!

I worked with George and his buyers on the lending side and his buyers were happy- he met their goals, quickly and smoothly, easy to work with, on top of the deals, very smooth. He really knew about the whole transaction on top of knowing the Chicago neighborhoods. If a customer asked me who I would refer, I would respond that George Patrick is a solid agent with the customer's needs put first.

Interview

What year did you become a real estate agent?
2005
How many years have you been in Real Estate?
6
What is the average home price in your market?
I use $250,000 as an average price for determining business planning strategies but we have many mar
Why do you enjoy being a real estate agent?
I am an entrepreneur by nature and working for myself presents unique challenges that I enjoy. On top of that just seeing people smile when they finally get their dream home or first investment property - it's always a big deal when the deal closes.
What is the most challenging issue you face as a Real Estate Professional?
By far it is educating the consumer/client on the constant changes in all things real estate. While all consumers are educated on some aspects of the market, few if any of them are well educated on all the areas they need to know about to complete a transaction successfully and in their best interests.
Tell us one of your client success stories or an interesting moment in your profession.
My success stories are right here on this website under the Reviews section! There are always interesting moments. An investor client of mine recently bought and closed a property she has never physically visited. She is an out of state owner buying rental property in Chicago. She trusts me to assist her in making the best decisions. I have told her "no" on other properties for about 8 months now before advising her to proceed on the deal we just closed.
What is your best characteristic?
My ability to listen - I listen very carefully to what my clients are telling me as there is always more there than just the words they choose. I want to find out what moves them - what will really fit their needs.
Who or what inspires you the most?
People in my office and life who push hard to be better at what they do in all areas of life. It's a journey, not a destination!
What is the best advice you ever received?
No matter where you are in life you have only yourself to blame - and that means both good and bad.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
On an island in the Caribbean! There are plenty of islands in that area that would work. :-)
