Track Record

Kiser Group is successful in tapping the market to obtain the highest price and best terms for each client in every transaction. We do this first by thoroughly understanding our client’s asset – the sticks and bricks, mechanical systems and how the numbers affect the current and potential financial operations of the property. As local market specialists, we also understand the market forces that affect value, including housing trends, demographics, rents, housing prices, interest rates, the local economy and local regulations affecting ownership and development.

Kiser Group then employs a marketing approach designed to reach the largest number of interested and qualified buyers. Our clients reap the benefits of our comprehensive database system, our extensive relationships with owners, developers and real estate investors, and our working relationships with other brokers.  In addition, because of Kiser Group’s track record and consistent inventory of Chicago apartment properties for sale, Buyers seek out Kiser Group and the properties we represent.   

Kiser Group’s work, however, does not end with the sale. We proactively manage the escrow process, handling inspections, discussing financing issues with lenders, assisting attorneys, working with appraisers, analyzing the relevant documents and monitoring deadlines so the deal stays on track. We do the work so that you do not have to. We stay the course until the deal is closed, making sure deadlines are met and issues are resolved.
