Harty Realty Group

Thank you, thank you, thank you! John and Rich are true professionals. They excel at their work and go above and beyond any realtor. Look no further and hire the best buyers agents in the area. Thank you both so much!

Rich is a true professional. I would recommend his services to anyone seeking a home. His experience in construction was particularly helpful in eliminating properties needing costly repairs.

Time and time again Rich went above and beyond, always exceeding expectations and over delivering.

From taking on the daunting effort to obtain VA approval for an HOA (an incredible feat!) to supporting us navigate multiple (Multiple!) lender issues, he was an tremendous assest in our corner, no chance we would have found success without him nor with anyone else.

Honestly, cannot thank him enough for all he did, has my highest recommendation!

A year ago we were ready to buy a house and worked with a different real estate agent. That agent was rather pushy to sell us the properties they had listed themselves even if those properties were not a good fit for us. We went back to researching agents and my wife read a book that suggested working with a Buyer’s Agent. This lead us to find… Harty Realty Group. We met with Rich in person and sat down and talked about our hopes and dreams for our future home. He set up a search to help find that home. We were all unsure how long this would take, and Rich was supportive and patient

Rich Harty is the best of the best. We found him via an inquiry to NAEBA. We planned to move from KC to Chicago without knowing much about the real estate market or laws. Rich not only knocked himself out helping us find the perfect place, but provided us references for lenders, inspectors and attorneys. The professionals we chose were also the very best. His knowledge of construction proved to be advantageous. He helped us avoid many pitfalls we never knew existed, and he negotiated skillfully. The whole process went so smoothly we can hardly believe it. You can trust the advice he gives

Made the right choice when I found Harty Realty. Just bought my first house this year! The road was long, my job location changed a few times during my search which meant so did the areas I was looking in.. We searched all over from Lockport to Crystal Lake. In the end it was around 2 years I worked back and forth with Rich to find the right house for a newbie like me.
Rich was patient and professional the entire time and although we had seen our share of disasters together he was always willing to jump and run to show me a house last minute.
As a buyers agent I really felt Rich had my back.

If you're buying real estate you need someone looking out for your best interests, without the complications of dual agency. Rich is the consummate buyer's agent. We found him a tireless advocate during our home buying experience and recommend him to everyone buying property in Chicagoland. The Harty brothers have broad and deep knowledge of the real estate market, know the building trades, have excellent support services and superb customer focus.

Rich was a pleasure to work with! He was always friendly, cheerful, and available when I had questions! He helped make the whole home buying process easy and painless! You are in good hands with Rich and team!

The first time we met Rich, we knew that he was the man who was going to help us find our first home. Before we had met him, our house hunting had left my fiancé and I very discouraged. We were being shown things outside of our specifications and did not have any interest in any of the homes we were shown. We felt very lost in the whole process. Then I took my mother's advice and sought out an exclusive buyer's agent. I still feel incredibly grateful that we ended up finding Rich. I explained to him from the beginning that we were first timers and would need a lot of hand holding to

Rich was very helpful and considerate as I purchased my first home. I was completely clueless about the entire process and he was very patient explaining anything and everything to me. I immediately trusted him and he was a great person and a knowledgeable professional to bounce inquiries off of. A buyer's agent was definitely the right choice and… as a young person trying to find my way through a very unfamiliar path, he helped me find the perfect fit. I'd recommend him to all my friends, young and old, and definitely contact him again when I look for another residence in the future. Thank

My girlfriend and I recently worked with Rich to find our first home and could not have had a more wonderful, intelligent, and caring real estate agent to work with. We had a very tight budget and had some very specific needs we had to meet which made our home search challenging including a very tricky closing, and Rich was with us and supported us the entire time. He has a fantastic knowledge of how homes are built and a great eye for potential problems with any home. He has a very positive attitude and we truly could not have found our perfect home without him. If you are looking for a home

I have benefitted Greatly from Rich Harty and the Harty Realty. Positive people, well informed, honest and Professional. I sleep in a wonderful home every night because of the Harty Group.

We have just closed on a house with Rich Harty as our realtor. We had a great experience using him. We had a lengthy timeline, as we were first time home buyers and didn't know what to expect. Rich was very patient with us and educated us in the home buying process. He was very knowledgeable about different neighborhoods and different types of houses. He was able to help us to figure out what type of house would be best for us. Rich truly went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with our house. We would recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home.

I am so grateful to have had Rich's help in finding a Condo. I didn't even know that buyers agents existed, and I had found my way to National Association of Exclusive Buyer Agents at naeba.org on Thanksgiving day. I signed up the site to find a buyer agent and Rich contacted me that evening, Thanksgiving evening!

He spent quite a bit of time asking exactly what I was looking for and set me up with a website I could log into to see condos that met my criteria. I found ones that I wanted to look at, we met and looked at a few places.

I found a place I liked, he helped me with negotiation

As first time home buyers, my husband and I had a lot to consider. Though there were certain things that we didn't want and wanted. We worked with an agent for months and were getting nowhere. I started looking for someone else as we did not have a contract and the guy just wanted to show us homes he was selling that didn't even remotely meet our specifications (double dipping to the max). (Dealing with this was especially difficult because we were relocating from GA to IL.) I found Rich online and gave him a call. Within a few hours he had our own website login with over 100 homes (most

My wife and I have used Harty Realty Group to purchase two homes. Rich is the best out there. He catered to our needs and showed us countless properties. When we finally found the home of our dreams he was able to refer us to an amazing inspector and gave us A+ service from start to finish. We will refer Harty Realty Group to all of our family and friends! Thank you Harty Realty Group!

Harty Realty Group found us our first home and we could not be more happy! They were very professional and quick to show us new homes right when they went on the market. They made our first home buying experience painless! We are so thankful and would highly recommend them to anyone that is looking!
