Seller reviewKit Wilcox was recommended by a friend who is active in the community and so knew a lot of local realtors. We live out of state, but we still have family and friends living in Galesburg. At the mention of Kit's name the responses was always the same- that he is a top realtor and nice guy with an excellent professional reputation. These are the qualities we were looking for in our realtor. Through the entire process of selling our brother's home, I felt that Kit Wilcox always placed our best interests first.

Seller reviewKit was highly recommended from several friends. Truly appreciated Kit's local expertise and professionalism. The house sold quickly and all the details were handled well. We especially liked the frequent communication and ease of the sale. Kit is the best realtor we have dealt with in the sale of property. Our past experiences with other realtors have not been so positive. Great communication and prompt to return calls....

Seller reviewKit Wilcox and his associates were outstanding help in the sale of my mother's house. They went beyond my expectations. I was not in the local area and my mother was in a nursing home so the assistance I received could not have been better. They knew how to price the home, get it ready for open houses, took feedback from those open houses always keeping me aware of everything without me having to deal with any problems. He also knew people to call for maintenance issues like a broken sump pump and a tree that needed cutting down from a storm. Again, I would highly recommend this realtor and associates - very professional and helpful through the entire process of selling a house!

Seller reviewIt was a pleasure working with Kit Wilcox to handle the sale of an estate sale house in Galesburg. I was working from out of town so had to rely on Kit to determine what fixing up the house would need and would be worthwhile to maximize the sales proceeds net of fix up costs. Kit did a great job of identifying our market niche and price range target and locating and overseeing local contractors for us to do work needed for the house to show well. I found it helpful that he kept me apprised of scheduled showings by brokers and of the comments of prospective buyers that did not make offers. The pace of showings and comments of prospective buyers and their brokers confirmed that we had the house priced and presented right. When we got an offer he was very professional and knowledgeable in advising me on the counter offer and presented our position well so we got under contract at a price and terms we were happy with. Kit and his staff handled the escrow and closing very smoothly and efficiently, tracking down and obtaining all documentation needed for a successful closing. All in all, one of the smoothest real estate purchase or sale transactions I have experienced.
