I have worked other Realtors on previous occasions and Helen is the best one so far. The words that best describe her are: professional, knowledgeable, sharp, proactive, and smart. When I listed my Lincoln Park house in April, 2008, Helen had a contract on it within three days of putting it on the market. She knew the market, where to best price the property, and handled all the details of the sale from listing preparation to closing. I travel extensively for my job and would never have been able to sell my home without her. Helen Milgrom is the one of the best agents Coldwell Banker has to offer, and I highly recommend her.

As relocation clients, we needed an agent whom we could trust & completely rely upon. Helen is incredibly well-informed about the market and candid. Her earnest, hard-working approach reassured us that we were making the right purchase decision.

Helen is an excellent example of a realtor who listens to what her clients want. She gave me the time to choose the home that best suited my needs. I love my new home, and as a first-time buyer, Helen's expertise in the field and knowledge of the area instilled confidence & trust.

Helen is a valued professional. She took on our listing, which had previously been on the market, and with a few suggestions and marketing know-how the house sold very quickly. She was professional at all times and we deeply appreciated her broad and deep expertise in the Chicago real estate market.

Helen took the time to learn about what we wanted in a home. She was extremely skillful during negotiations and with her follow up. Helen continued to help us even after we moved in. We are very happy with our new home!

Helen was very professional and always accessible. Our home sold in three weeks at 98% of its asking price (in the middle of winter!). We would highly recommend her.
Stephen & Katherine Geissler
Through all of our buying and selling transactions, Helen has consistently been an informed professional who has removed the anxiety from a stressful process. In 2005, Helen sold our condo in less than three weeks at more than 98% of the original list price. She then helped us search for, locate, and purchase a beautiful new single family home. Later, when we opted to relocate to the West coast, she again helped us sell our home. Our second experience using Helen as a listing agent was in the Fall of 2008 during a lull in the real estate market. With her assistance we had it under contract in less than a week for more than 98% of the original list price. It goes without saying that we recommend Helen to all of our friends with the utmost confidence in her capabilities.

Through two home purchases, Helen's market knowledge was invaluable. I have come to appreciate her negotiating skills. She gave excellent advice on how to formulate bids, and did not shy away from being hard-nosed when the situation called for it. Helen is also an excellent counselor - she has seen it all and was able to give sage advice about making difficult trade-offs and potential surprises. Most of all, she is extremely loyal: for both purchases, I got the sense that she cared as much about getting the perfect place as I did.

Helen was very professional. She puts her clients' needs first, was excellent at responding to our needs, and was always willing to go the extra mile. We trusted Helen completely and felt very comfortable putting our purchase in her hands.

We originally meet Helen when she was representing the seller of a home we purchased. We were impressed by the way she conducted herself and decided then that we would use Helen when we sold our home. We hired her to sell our Chicago home in Fall 2007 and she did an outstanding job selling it in a difficult market. She provided us with valuable insights regarding market conditions, how best to market the property and acceptable terms to accept from the seller. During the process Helen did a masterful job of adapting to the changing market conditions and communicating frequently with us so that we could make informed decisions. Helen is one of the hardest working realtors in the city and has proven in multiple transactions that she can get the job done with a high level of quality and service.
