I can't explain enough how valuable the services of Short Sale Chicago are. Lonny took the most difficult circumstances possible and made the sale of my home seamless. My real estate transaction involved a divorce, a piece of real estate left in disrepair located in a remote location from Chicago, a mortgage that been sold to at least 3 different banks, and countless other unforeseen issues that popped up at the most inopportune times in the middle of the transaction. Lonny and his staff at Short Sale Chicago never complained, were never impatient, and were never unavailable for me or my ex-wife, even as there were frustrating situations and occasions that would have warranted it.
The patience, guidance, and service I received here is unlike any professional service I have ever employed.... EVER. Seriously, you will wish that your car mechanic, your lawyer, your housekeeper, or your doctor has the work ethic and thoughtful service that Lonny and Short Sale Chicago provides. I personally do not need to have another real-estate transaction to know that I have been serviced by one of the best in the business with Lonny and Short Sales Services.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mel N.Chicago, IL483630Apr 22, 2016
Lonny is very professional and accomplished. EVERYTHING he said he could do from our first meeting, he did. From start to finish it was exactly 5-6 months. Do not hesitate! I interviewed about 8 realtors till I found him. And he was a good guy to boot.

I worked with Lonny from Short Sales Chicago to complete a short sale on an investment property that i owned in Chicago. He did an excellent job and successfully got me out of a upside-down underwater property. He served as my short sale Realtor and short sale negotiator with the banks and the homeowners association. I supplied him with my financial documents when the bank requested them and he handled all the short sale negotiation with the buyer and the banks. I walked away at closing and owed ZERO to all banks. Also, he set me up with a great short sale attorney that handled all the legal aspects. Best of all, all of the services from the company, the short sale Realtor and the attorney cost me ZERO, the bank paid all the fees associated with the sale ! I would highly recommend Lonny as a short sale Realtor and the Short Sales Chicago team to handle short sales in the Chicago area.

I am a short sale attorney in Chicago with considerable experience closing short sales throughout Chicagoland. Lonny Miller is among the finest in his profession, due to his work ethic, experience and understanding of the market. Lonny is an accomplished short sale negotiator, and knows how to bring a short sale from listing to closing. I trust Lonny with my clients, and highly recommend him as a Real Estate Broker, and specifically for his work in Short Sales.

Lonny make a difficult time a much easier experience. He was quick to respond to all emails and phone calls and explained everything completely. He arranged everything for a painless and very successful transition. He even checked on our home to turn up the heat after we had moved out of state. He went above and beyond and we would highly recommend him!!

I have worked with many Realtors, but have been very impressed with only a few. Short Sales Chicago as a company and Lonny Miller as a Realtor + Short Sale Specialist get my vote! Lonny helped me with a transaction and handled every aspect with professionalism and knowledge of the industry. I interviewed several Realtors to work with and Lonny was the only Short Sale Specialist that did NOT charge fees upfront, that lets the bank pay his fees, and that gives free consultations. Lonny gave me all the options that I had with my home even options that did not benefit him. I highly recommend his services, he helped my family in a real estate transaction and the level of knowledge that he displayed during the process was great. I can not emphasize enough that if you are in the need of a Short Sale Specialist he is the one you should call!

My mortgage was about 100k under water and I really wanted to move out of state to be closer to family. I had no other options but to sell my home. Lonny is excellent and made the short sale process easy and simple. He was always available to answer any questions I had and was quick with his responses. Even though I was a little nervous at first about doing a short sale, everything he told me was correct and gave me the confidence to do it. Honestly, if your mortgage is under water and you want to move, this is the BEST option. I walked away with nothing but a small hit to my credit that only lasts a couple years which is nothing compared to being $100k in debt for nothing! I never knew the there are new laws in cook county that protect people who choose to do a short sale. Lonny has the skills and resources to negotiate with the banks and get things moving. My short sale took about 6 months from the moment my house was listed on the market to the moment I signed at closing. I even got a check at closing which was helpful with my moving expenses. My neighbor at the time was so impressed he also chose Lonny to do his short sale and sold his house even faster than mine! So be assured, if you're going to do a short sale, Lonny Miller is your guy.
