“Ricky was extremely attentive and easy to work with. He responded immediately to every issue that arose throughout the entire process. I was comfortable asking him questions and always found he was interested in helping and going out of his way to facilitate. I am extremely glad we had Ricky to help us find and purchase our new home.” – Theresekin3
“Richard ‘Ricky’ puts his client’s needs first and is a strategic resource when buying a home in Chicago and the North Shore area. He is extremely dependable and made the buying experience easy.
My wife and I were looking for our first home in Chicago and or the North Shore as we were undecided about the city and or burbs. As first-time home buyers and being novices to the process, Ricky was able to provide knowledgeable insight and details every step of the way. We had lots of questions and Ricky always made himself available and was prompt to respond via the phone, text, email (day or night).
Ricky first set up a home search for us based on our very extensive criteria of what we were looking for in our home in the city and burbs. There were times that we were out of town and being that the market moves so quickly (winter/spring 2021), Ricky went to various open-houses and provided virtual tours for us since we couldn’t be there in person. He was very detailed oriented in the offer/contract phase and was hands-on during the inspection and attorney review process.
He was always honest, emotionally intelligent and knows how to deliver updates, suggestions and messages (even when it’s not the best news, like being out-bid).
Ricky’s knowledge of the Chicago and the North Shore market is well versed, he makes it a priority to get to know his clients and provides advisement so we could make the best decision for the long-term. If you are looking for a collaborative, communicative agent who puts your needs first, someone who is going to walk you through the end-to-end and be present throughout the homebuying experience, Ricky is your man!” – Doug B
“Ricky is the best of the best. My husband and I were looking for our first home and we couldn’t have asked for a better professional to lead the way for us.
He was always honest, overly communicative/timely, extremely knowledgeable and gentle when delivering not so good news. Ricky’s knowledge of the Chicago market is beyond and he makes it a priority to get to know his clients so they can make the best decision for the long -term. His advisement was always on point and we knew we could count on him to take the lead in our search.
Not to mention he was extremely invested in us and never missed a beat when it came to calling or texting us. If you want a caring agent and not just a salesman, this is your guy!” – Allie

“Ricky was instrumental in helping my wife and I find an apartment which we fell in love with. He helped guide us during the entire process and was incredibly patient, thoughtful and responsive throughout. He took our best interests to heart and delivered! I would highly recommend him for anyone looking to move anytime soon. You’re in good hands with Ricky!” – Sam
“Ricky Neems is a fantastic real estate agent. He showed my husband and I several apartments around the West Loop. He knew exactly what we were looking for and did not waste our time with units we would not love. I had a very crazy specific list (close to an el, close to coffee/restaurants, amenities, big bedroom, etc), and he nailed it! Not to mention is extremely professional and responsive, he always responded to my MANY emails and questions. He was truly an expert on the neighborhood and knew the answers to all my questions about the area! I would highly recommend working with him to find your next home. 10/10!!” – Lauren
