Stella was amazing! She made the entire process so easy by recommending the right professionals from beginning to end and responding to texts, calls and emails within minutes. A true professional that I would recommend to anyone!

Stella was prepared and helpful through out the whole process and helped me a ton with buying my first home. After a few places we looked at she was able to refine the search to show the best homes that I was looking for and that helped a ton.

I have worked with many realtors over the years. Stella was the first who took the extra step (or several extra steps) to ensure our purchase went smoothly. She contacted not only the seller's agent, as we would expect, but the homeowners' association and contractors. She also stayed actively involved during the purchase process (didn't disappear once the lawyers got involved like other realtors have done) and did so many little things that made this a memorable and positive transaction. I hope to work with her in the future!

I knew next to nothing about the house buying process and Stella basically held my hand through the entire process. From start to finish! And she still keeps in contact with us checking in and seeing how everything is.

Stella was instrumental in selling not one, but two homes. First she helped with the sale for an estate and then helped me sell my own home. Stella is very aware and knowledgeable about the local market and gave me great advice on what to do and what not to do to maximize the proceeds of the sale of my home in a short amount of time. Stella will go above and beyond to be sure you are satisfied and I cannot recommend her more!

We recently sold our home in Elgin, IL with Stella Schening and we couldn't be happier with the entire process. She walked us through each step of the way and was quite accommodating to our very busy schedules. She gave us honest opinions about what she felt we could get for our house and gave us excellent advice on what upgrades and improvements to make and where we would be better off saving our money. She advocated for us during some stressful negotiations with our buyer and were it not for her tenacity, the deal probably would have fallen through. We had to sell our home after we had already moved out of state which was extremely stressful and she and her staff went above and beyond to check on the house, help us with little things and manage things with the contractors that were in the house in our absence. She helped make the whole process so much smoother and kept everything moving forward so things stayed on the proper timeline. She was extremely thorough, honest, responsive and a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend her services and would absolutely use her again if needed. 10/10 stars!!

Stella is amazingly professional yet very personable! She acted fast when I was looking for a rental property in an high demand market and recently, in an emotional time of selling my childhood family home, she was patient and understanding. Thank you, Stella!

We had a great experience with Stella while selling a property in Elgin. Her market knowledge, communication and professionalism through the entire process was greatly appreciated. Stella provided guidance for staging the property, pricing and handling the negotiations. We sold the property quickly and could not have done any of this without her.

Very kind and patient with first time home buyers. Very knowledgeable and quick to respond. Honest and explained things along the way. Recommended professional contacts.

Stella is an outstanding realtor! We chose Stella to list our home because of her market knowledge, attention to detail and her commitment to get us the right price. From day one, Stella was prepared to get us moving in the right direction. She made suggestions on how to properly stage our home and had a team of professionals available to help us make minor repairs prior to listing. Within 24 hours we had multiple offers and relied on Stella’s experience to walk us through each offer so we could make the best decision possible. We had to move out of state prior to closing and Stella jumped right in. She maintained our home so it would be in perfect condition for the new owners. Selling a home can be stressful. Stella’s calm demeanor and excellent communication skills helped to alleviate most of that stress. If you’re thinking of listing your home, we would highly recommend Stella Schening.
