“Darby has sold over 40 condo units for us over the last three years. She has consistently performed above our expectations and has secured pricing well above what other brokers had told us was possible.”

"Darby is an exceptionally skilled, knowledgeable, and experienced agent. We have worked with Darby for 12 years. Her knowledge of the Chicago market, pricing, and negotiations always netted us a better deal. In addition to her business acumen, she maintains good client communications so that we are always informed about the status of the listing or negotiation. We would recommend Darby highly and without reservation."

“Darby is the best realtor I have worked with, by far! She helped my husband and I both buy and sell a home, and she got results. We sold our old home in 5 days for above asking price, and we bought the perfect home for our family. Throughout this experience, I found that she takes the time to collect data that is key for decision-making, but also has the judgement and experience to help guide you through the process. She is friendly, courteous, helpful and attentive to your needs. Even after you have finished your transaction, she keeps in touch and helps in whatever way she can. She is amazing!”

"Without a doubt this was the smoothest...most professional and enjoyable real estate experience I have been involved with. It may even be one of the best business transactions of any kind for that matter. Darby Zwagerman hit high notes on each phase of the process from the critical listing price to making sure we dotted every I and crossing every T. There were no bumps along that I know of and if there were she must have handled them as well. I would recommend her to anyone and she will be the first call I make when I buy or sell another home."
