When I moved out of state and couldn’t sell my house in Illinois, I was forced to work remotely with tenants in the house. I searched for a property management group and was fortunate to find Grand Reality Group. They have been a blessing since it is difficult to manage emergencies and late payments remotely. Jim provides professional and courteous experience and has a myriad of contacts in the industry for repairs and maintenance, which helps keep rental costs low. He provides honest information and is knowledgeable about the area and the market. With Grand Reality Group managing the property, it has been a weight lifted.

Jim was completely responsive in every way from start to final sale. His recommendations for improvements and expansive network of contractors and home specialists helped us get our mother’s home ready for sale in a surprisingly short period of time. Alongside this, Jim’s knowledge of the market, and sales skills facilitated sale of our property in a surprisingly short period of time. My entire family definitely recommends Jim Cacioppo and Grand Reality Group to anyone wishing to list their home or needing assistance in managing their property. A Plus!

We have had the pleasure of working with Grand Realty Group Inc. as our preferred property management team for the past four years. Jim holds the upmost integrity and respect for his clients. I would highly recommend the entire Grand Reality team for any real estate or property management needs.

Jim Cacioppo from Grand Realty recently sold our house on Long Lake in Ingleside. Jim did an above and beyond job from start to finish.
Jim assisted us with information as to how to stage the house for sale as well as how to price it for market conditions in the area. We were expecting a long and arduous process but our house sold quickly.
As with many transactions ours was not without it’s challenges. When these challenges came up, Jim put in many hours of extra help to prevent these things from getting in the way of the sale and closing. There were many instances where Jim put in time on things that were not necessarily his responsibility in order to keep the sale moving in the right direction.
He is focused, attends to detail and very driven in what he does. Overall I couldn’t be happier with the outcome of our transaction and I would recommend Grand Realty to anyone who is looking for help buying or selling in the area.

Jim is an excellent landlord and we’ve loved renting from him. He’s fast, honest and works extremely hard to ensure we have a happy home. We’ve already decided that if we move into a bigger home, we’d like to stay with Grand Realty, if possible.
Thanks for being such great people!

I want to thank you for all you have done to help sell my father’s home.
I had contacted 2 other realty companies, but they were not interested in helping me because of my situation. I was glad when I contacted you and you agreed to meet with my husband and I. Unlike the bigger realty companies, you listened and you were compassionate.
It was a long process, but thank you for being patient. Thanks for guiding us through a confusing time.
It was a great relief when we finally closed. I wished your compensation matched all of the work involved.
I would not hesitate for use Grand Realty again for buying or selling, and would highly recommend you to family and friends.

Jim, We would like to take this opportunity to thank you, Dawn and Tammy for managing the home over 6 years and for selling it. You first found a good couple as tenants and then found a good person as buyer. We are very happy that our first home that we built from ground up continues to be in the hands of good people. That home will always occupy a soft corner in our hearts as we laid the foundation of our life there and welcome our first two kids there. So, thank you very much for you assistance maintaining it well these past years.
