The Rewards of Real Estate

The most rewarding part of real estate is knowing you helped someone reach an important goal and that they genuinely appreciate you for your efforts. That, and knowing in the process you've gained a new friend. More than anything else this is what we work for on our team.

Chris Venden, Shelley Lazzareschi, and Tammy Steiner are all receiving some very rewarding feedback, which is a direct reflection of their commitment to their clients. Here are a few recent examples that have been posted by their clients online. 

Chris Venden

"Chris was amazing! Buying our condo with her was a walk in the park. She went above and beyond the call of duty in every regard and made the whole process smooth and efficient. Every time we had a question or needed help, Chris responded almost immediately."

"When my husband received a job offer in Wisconsin we contacted Chris to help us find a home. From the first phone call to closing Chris was wonderful to work with. She was knowledgeable, helpful, super fast to respond to questions or issues. I would strongly recommend her services."

"I had 3 days to find a new home. Chris Venden and her associate Tammy Steiner had several places for me to consider and found the perfect home for me...Chris did everything in her power to ease the transition. I am very grateful."

"Chris was wonderful to work with and so professional during the entire process. She and the RE/MAX staff (Tammy Steiner), walked us through houses at unusual hours and worked around our schedules. When we put an offer in she was helpful, patient and walked us through the entire process in what to expect. I'd recommend anyone to her and the staff at RE/MAX."

Shelley Lazzareschi

"Shelley was absolutely outstanding in all respects. She was extremely organized, efficient, honest, hard-working, friendly, smart, and helpful. She was the best agent we had ever worked with and would recommend her unreservedly. She answered all queries immediately, gave excellent advice, and really went beyond expectations in order to help us purchase a condo."

"Shelley was the best realtor we have ever used. Very helpful and knowledgeable. We lived out of state and she kept everything moving in a timely manner. She helped with our concerns when she did not have to. We would use her again."

"We worked closely with Dan Miller and Shelley Lazzareschi. They were extremely knowledgeable about local market conditions. The marketing extras that they provided were excellent and helpful in expediting the sale of our home. All of their recommendations proved to be sound and right on the mark. This group is truly professional and were a true pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend them."

"We are very glad we chose Mad City Dream Homes to not only list our home for sale, but also work with us on purchasing a new one. Dan Miller, and Shelley Lazzareschi were very friendly, professional and courteous. They included services such as: truly professional photography, excellent staging and listing consultation. Not to mention, Tammy Steiner and Debbie Lea (Home staging consultant) were very helpful as well. They all know their jobs very well. We absolutely love our new home! Thanks to all of you for your efforts and integrity. It was truly our pleasure to work with every one of you.Needless to say, we would not hesitate to recommend this team to anyone and everyone interested in buying a home, listing their home or both."

Tammy Steiner

Tammy plays a special role on our team and is an important part of our customer service model. Her primary role is to help our clients find properties and view them in person as soon as they become available. Tammy is a huge reason why our clients are often the first to view a property and the first to write an offer. She brings amazing amounts of energy, hustle and enthusiasm to the table. On any given day she can be found assisting several different clients - very often on nights and weekends. In short, she's the consummate team player. 

This is why Tammy's role is mentioned (or implied) in so many of our online reviews. Our clients genuinely appreciate the effort and enthusiasm that she brings to the table, as well as the support of the entire surrounding team.
