Your Neighbor Called Us

The buyers of 43 Candlewood weren’t new to Helen—they were already working with her to sell their home. But when their dream home came back on the market, they knew it would be tough to secure it with a contingent offer in a competitive seller’s market. Still, they had complete faith in Helen’s strategy and expertise… and she didn’t let them down.

We Got To Work

Helen immediately built a game plan to make the offer stand out. With years of experience navigating complex deals, she knew exactly how to position their contingent offer to gain serious consideration—and ultimately acceptance.

Finding the perfect home

This stunning 5,300+ square foot all-brick estate in Wynstone had everything our buyers wanted: dramatic architectural details, a luxury kitchen, full finished basement with a bar and wine cellar, and gorgeous grounds on a one-acre lot in a prestigious golf community. It was the kind of home buyers dream about—and Helen made it a reality.

Marketing

Make the offer

Even though we weren’t the listing agent, we approached the process with the same diligence, speed, and attention to detail we bring to every deal. Helen coached our buyers through every move, presenting a compelling offer that hit all the seller’s needs—while also protecting our buyers’ goals.

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about my friend Helen and the incredible work she does as a realtor! Nine years ago, she guided me through the purchase of my first home—a beautiful condo on Bangs Lake in Wauconda, IL. As a first-time homebuyer, I had so many questions and concerns, but she made the entire process seamless and enjoyable with her knowledge, patience, and dedication. Fast forward to now, as my family has grown, I turned to Helen again to help us find our new home in Lake Zurich, IL. She went above and beyond to find us the perfect place in a difficult market. The new house checked everything off the list and more, and feels like home. Not only did she help with the purchase of my new residence, but she also assisted me with the rental process for the condo. She helped me secure tenants within 1 week. Her husband and business partner, Danny, is phenomenal as well and took very professional staging photos. The Oliveri's are truly such a great and hard-working family! On top of her professionalism and expertise, Helen always adds such a personal touch. Her thoughtful housewarming gift of wine, chocolate, candles, and even a custom engraved charcuterie board was just one more example of how much she truly cares about her clients. I’m so grateful to have had her by my side through both of these major life milestones. If you’re looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, committed, and truly invested in your happiness, I highly recommend Helen! She knows her stuff better than anyone and you will be in great hands with her and her team. She also works very closely with Attorney Lauren LoMonaco, who was such a pleasure to do business with. The loan agent, Missy Niedholdt with American Portfolio Mortgage, was also extremely helpful, caring, and knowledgeable. Her entire team works around the clock. All of her business partners were always accessible and made time to answer any questions I had. With so many realtors flooding the market, none come close to matching Helen's expertise. Plus, she is just SO MUCH FUN to work with! You will not regret working with Helen. She is so passionate about her work, and will be about helping you too!”

“My wife and I were blessed to have the Helen Oliveri team navigate us towards first-time home ownership. Our Buyer's Agent, Katie Haruska, was the advocate you want in your corner. Katie's years of real estate insight showed during negotiations and any questions we came across. With this team, we felt comfortable on every chapter of home buying. Katie handled our proposed offer, attorney review and closing process flawlessly. Helen has fostered a distinguished business environment.”

“After 55 years in our family home, my father decided to move to the city and we chose Helen Oliveri as our realtor. She and her team were very knowledgable and fantastic to deal with, and we especially liked that she put a sign on his lawn with a 'coming soon' on top to alert people that it was about to be listed. We had 50 showings in the first weekend which resulted in many offers! Helen was very responsive and knowledgeable about helping us sort through them and we closed the deal quickly. We highly recommend Helen and her team”

“When we recently decided to buy a house in the NW suburbs, we had already seen several of Helen Oliveri's signs at several available homes and reached out to her to help us with our search. We had a very friendly, embracing welcome by Helen and her team! She was perfectly organized and gave us a detailed overview of the buying process, our and her roles and as a result, there were no surprises! Her prepared contract was clear and easy to understand, set up a fair framework, and gave us great accessibility to her and her team. In a buyer's market, speed is essential and her team was extremely agile, providing very fast access to any objects which fit our profile that we were interested in. Helen's knowledge of the market and the actual value of individual objects provided the critical background for our bidding strategy which resulted in a successful outcome - we got the house we wanted! Also, the previous owner informed us that our offer was very close to those of others, but was still the best. This feedback underscored that Helen gave us great advice on the amount to offer. We had a wonderful experience working with Helen and her team (shout out to Katie Haruska too!) and we can fully recommend her for any real estate activities in our area. FIVE STARS!”
