“Beata Kolpek and Sara Kolpek were a "Dynamic Duo" in selling my house! From their initial phone call, to research, planning, and marketing, they were professional, extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and goal oriented. They guided me through the entire process and were very patient. Their expertise led to a very quick sale of my house after many offers. I highly recommend Team Kolpek and will use them for any future needs.”

“The home selling process isn't easy. Beata and Sara have sold two homes for my mother, with Sis and I doing the work of getting them ready for market. We were surprised at their suggested asking prices, thought they seemed high, but with their extensive marketing reach and knowledge of the area pricing, they were actually under for what both houses sold for, as both houses ended up igniting into some bidding competition. The second house was the hard one to part with - it was our childhood home, and in need of repairs. Sis and I put the love into it, and Beata and Sara found a buyer who fell in love with its potential - so instead of becoming a flipper's or prospector teardown at $60K less than it might have been worth, its value rose and we have the pleasure of knowing kids will be running around in the back yard once again. Their marketing sensibility of highlighting the potential of the little house made it a viable vision for the buyer.”

“Beata and Sara went above and beyond at every step of the process. Moving from Michigan, my time and options were very limited. They started by looking where I live to get an idea of what I like, and asked to make sure they knew what was most important to me. Every property they showed me would have been a great option! Within a record time, they found the best property for me in an incredible location! They stayed in constant contact, and kept me calm during a very difficult time for me. Beata and Sara genuinely care. I have bought and sold a lot of homes in the past, but my experience with them far surpassed any previous ones. I will never work with anyone else going forward! Thank you for making it happen! ?”

Linda & Dolores Ippolito, Darien, IL

“I chose to meet with Beata and Sara Kolpek beccause they were the seller's agent when we bought our house initially and I was impressed by their negotiation skills. I also liked how they know the area extensively and loved having two strong women be my agents. They helped me sell my house for much more than above asking price by staging the house beautifully and pricing it well. They were able to help keep the peace and get me through selling my house through a messy divorce. I highly recommend them! It was a painless process with them for something that I was afraid would be quite difficult when I first started thinking about selling.”

“I tried to sell my Mother's house on my own as I knew it was a strong market, but it was much harder than I realized. I am so glad I chose Beata and Sara Kolpek to help me sell my Mother's house. I had a special request for a no-tear-down clause attached to the deed because my parents designed and built the house and there are so many tear-downs in the area. Beata and Sara were not familiar wtih this but they did not hesitate to go along with what I wanted. They did an absolutely awesome job of incorporating my feelings about the property into the way it was shown. Over a long weekend in April, there were 61 showings of the house and I received 12 offers! There is no way in the world I could have accomplished this without them. My original goal of finding someone who respects and appreciates the house was definitely accomplished, thanks to their skill in presenting and showing the house and their networking which brought in so many to look at the house. In the end, I got $35K more than the asking price, along with the peace of mind knowing the house is in the hands of someone who really appreciates it.”

“My experience with Beata and Sara Kolpek was very positive. This was my mother's home and she passed away and I was left with the responsibility of selling the house. From step one they were with me on direction to get the house ready for sale. We tried a private sale first and did not get any offers. This was my decision and they advised that it may not work but I felt it was worth a shot as the house needed some work. Once that did not work they helped with the advice on the work that needed to be done. The house was sold in eight days of being on the market very close to my asking price. Well done Team Kolpek.”

“We would highly recommend Platium Partners, Beata Klopek and Sara Klopek. They worked with us closely to overcome many complications selling out house. They guided us through alternatives that would help us decide the best way to sell the house with proper pricing. Advising us to the right things to repair/replace verses spending money in ways that would not increase value or interest in the house. Ultimately we sold the house very quickly. Closing went smoothly. Communications with Beata and Sara was easy and accurate throughout the entire process. We definitely would hire them again when selling another house!”

“We have worked with Beata and Sarah for many many years. The main reasons why we continue to go back to them is because they are on point from the very start of the selling and buying process to the end. They are so professional yet warm and friendly. And they are the most knowledgable agents we have ever worked with. Their experience leads to overcoming any obstacle that may arise. On the first day that they came to our home to sit down and chat with us about selling our home, they came with so many resources and information. They walked around our home and gave us amazing ideas for showcasing our home. They proved that they have our best interest at heart and are current in real estate trends. When it came to coming up with a good price to sell our home, they came ready with comps from our area. They showed us why there may have been a difference in pricing and talked about how our home fit into that range. They made us feel confident that they knew what they were talking about and that we can trust their expertise. Beata and Sarah were on top of everything and communicated with us routinely and almost daily. Any questions we had we messaged them and they immediately replied and took action. Most of the time they were already on top of everything, proactively pursing our best interest. One thing that really impressed me was their tech savviness. In our current climate we really need to make an impression on line and use all social media outlets in order to gain attention from the audience we are seeking. The pictures they took of our home were gorgeous and made our home stand out amongst others. Overall, Beata and Sarah Kolpek are the best in their field and we wouldn't think of using any other for our future home selling/buying needs.”

“The house is an older house in generally excellent condition (with some quirks), and outstanding landscaping. From the beginning, Beata and Sara warned us that it would be very attractive to certain buyers, but perhaps not so attractive to other potential buyers. Their marketing materials were slanted toward that special kind of buyer, and I think very successfully so. Overall, outstanding is the only term I can use! They constantly communicated with us, fine tuned the sales materials based on feedback from potential buyers, and were excellent with several "somewhat difficult" buyers. They more than met our expectations. Also we had some repairs we needed to have done, and a number of furniture items we needed to dispose of (we were downsizing), and their references were excellent (and likely people we could not have found on our own.) We also used the real estate lawyer they recommended, and he was outstanding.”

“I had an amazing experience working with Platinum Partners Realtors, specifically Beata and Sara Kolpek. Beata and Sara were recommended to us by a family member and we could not have been happier with them. My husband and I were felt very overwhelmed and vulnerable as we were first-time home buyers. Beata and Sara took the time to meet with us, get to know us, and help guide us in choosing the perfect home to match our needs. They were always available to answer any of our many questions and truly gave us an education that we will carry with us into the future. They were incredibly knowledgeable of all of the areas we we searching in, with building standards/requirements, and had invaluable practical advice. Though they were always dressed in professional business attire, Beata and Sara would not hesitate to get their hands dirty in an effort to thoroughly check every corner of a home that we viewed. It was the kind of treatment we would expect from a family member who cared for us, and not just a person trying to make a sale. We trust Beata and Sara wholeheartedly. We strongly believe that we found brokers of strong moral character, immeasurable integrity, and with knowledge that comes from years of doing the job well. We would not hesitate to recommend Beata and Sara Kolpek and Platinum Partners for anyone searching for a home. They are the BEST!”

Also very knowledgeable and responsive when we had questions. Selling a home is stressful but their guidance and attention to detail made it less so.”
