Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon With the Worlds’ Greatest Realtor on your team, no need to panic when selling your home in the midst of a pandemic. Pam was a consummate professional who expertly marketed our home of 30 years. Her knowledge of the market was applied during negotiations so all parties reached an acceptable deal. Despite the fevered pitch in the market at the time, cooler heads prevailed with Pam utilizing her experience to make sure the transaction closed on schedule. Pam kept us informed throughout the process so the time from listing to offer to close ‘flu’ by. This was the second transaction Pam handled for us and she always rises to the challenge while providing unmatched service. I heartily recommend Pam. Larry Steinert

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Pam was recommended to me by a co-worker, and my partner and I are so thankful we met her! We were relocating from out of state, and since we had just sold our previous home, we were highly motivated to find a new house quickly. From the first moment we met Pam, we knew she was highly organized, very knowledgeable, and had our best interests at heart. She arrived to each set of showings with listing sheets for every house we were going to see, a map showing their locations, and an overview list of the properties and prices in the order we were going to see them. Pam was quick to point out both positives and negatives of the homes we saw, and she was happy to educate us on the local market and what is typical for the homes in the area. She provided excellent insights. Pam is professional, honest, caring, and knowledgeable. We were very happy with Pam’s work, and we highly recommend her! Jaci

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon   My husband and I recently moved form Scottsdale, AZ to Glenview, IL and had an unbelievably positive home-buying experience because of Pam Raia. Before our home search even began, Pam Raia called us to introduce herself as our North Shore realtor.  She asked our home-buying needs and wants.  She also began personalizing our experience by getting to know our family.  She immediately created a Baird & Warner portal for screening houses which met our criteria.  When I had questions regarding homes, Pam was extremely knowledgeable.  She offered to drive by and find out more information about homes we were especially interested in.  When I asked about school district boundaries, Pam visited two high schools in different districts to get maps for me.  She mailed those maps to me, as well as laminated maps of the North Shore. Since we were searching for homes in two different areas of Chicago, we had to work with two different real estate agents.  Pam took the lead and coordinated my week-long house-hunting trip with the other realtor. Pam was so accommodating during our three days of viewing houses together.  She picked me up each day and made sure I was well informed about each home we visited.  She adjusted to the pace I desired.  There were several homes each day that my husband joined us to look at in the late afternoon.  Pam worked very hard to schedule second showing appointments and accommodate our schedules perfectly. After I returned to Arizona, Pam followed up immediately with additional information I had requested about the homes I was most interested in.  We decided to put an offer in on a house and Pam worked very late on a weekend night to properly word our offer.  We went back and forth several times and Pam was available throughout the weekend - whenever we needed her.  She offered intelligent advice too! The house turned out to present challenging situations.  After our offer was accepted, Pam quickly emailed suggestions for inspectors and real estate attorneys. Pam was diligent about keeping informed and answering questions throughout the attorney review phase, some of which were beyond the scope of what she needed to do as a realtor.  She went above and beyond, to say the least.  She was in touch with our real estate attorney.  She answered questions presented by our mortgage broker. Pam was present for our entire home inspection, which took six hours.  She also arranged to have a paint consultant meet me during the inspection and only later did I find out that Pam paid her out of her own pocket! After we closed on the house, we had one week before we moved in.  During that week, we had the interior of the house painted and the wood floors refinished (by a fantastic contractor recommendation by Pam.)  Each day of that week, Pam drove to our new home at 8am to let workers in and back at 5pm to lock the house and set the alarm.  AFTER THE CLOSING!!! Pam is an amazingly detail-oriented and conscientious realtor who went the extra mile for us.  We highly recommend her to any future clients.  We can't say enough about how wonderful Pam was to work with! Thank you, Stacy & Jeff K.   Stacy & Jeff K.

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon To Whom It May Concern, I recently had the pleasure of engaging Pamela Raia to sell our family home in Chicago. As Relocation Director for Shorewood Realtors, I had a multitude of options when considering representation for the out-of-state property.  I’ve had a wonderful working relationship with Baird and Warner for many years and the relocation staff was quite adept in selecting Pam to work this project.  I knew from our first conversation that Pam was the right choice for us! The home was not in good condition and came with many challenges.  Pam provided the guidance and expertise we needed in order to take appropriate actions to get the home on the market – and sold.  This included being the liaison between family members, as well as making recommendations on R-and-I.  In the changing economic times, we relied on Pam’s sharp analytical skills to identify a market value and strategize an approach to maximize our return. Pam kept us up to date on all aspects of marketing and interest in the property.  Her enthusiasm carried us through the entire process from initial conversation to final closing.  Pam was a great resource for out-of-town sellers who did not have any idea about the condition of the home or how it would be received in the local marketplace.  Despite the various obstacles we encountered, she was focused on the goal and kept us on track! We found a real jewel in Pam and I highly recommend her to anyone who could benefit from her professional expertise and superior level of care (from the heart!).  Most sincerely, Morena, Director – Relocation and Corporate Services SHOREWOOD REALTORS Morena C.
Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon   Dear Pam, Although I was not involved in the sale of my grandparent’s home, I wanted to acknowledge how much we all appreciated your hard work on our behalf.  My wife Morena just adores you and I finally had the opportunity to meet you when I came into town to clean out the property. You showed up at the property with a Costco package of packing supplies and boxes!  You were very sympathetic to my mountain of a task and came back the next day just to check in.  You had to deal with a very difficult situation as the person living in the property was not very cooperative and the house was in disrepair.  I think you managed that quite nicely.  I felt that if you could manage that situation as well as you did, we would be in good shape for you to handle the sale negotiations and manage the escrow. I am a full-time licensed Realtor in California and have been selling homes for 32 years.  You did as good a job as anyone I have dealt with in all my years in the business.  It was a pleasure to have met you and Thank You again for representing our family home of 67 years.  My grandparents would have liked you very much I think. Regards, Ross C.   Ross C.
Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon   Pam...everything has been happening so fast I feel I am remiss in thanking you for all you have done. A lot of people don't want to give us credit when it happens fast but, as you know, just taking the right pictures, the right verbiage...in other words, knowing how to do our job well speaks volumes and I really appreciate your expertise.

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon ~~My house hunting today was Amazing!  Andrea and Pam organized a significant number of units for me to see in a concise and efficient manner (they coordinated the scheduling of a LOT of listing agents--no small task).  From that, I was able to eliminate the negative units/buildings and focus on the positive.  In one day, I was able to choose a suitable condo with several backups. Even I am surprised at my progress.  Andrea and Pam make an incredible team!  From the moment I met them, they made me feel comfortable, provided information about the buildings, and ensured that my needs were being met. The Reed move from South Africa has established a new realm of relocation,  In the case of house hunting, Andrea and Pam ROCK. L:) Lisa

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Hi Pam,   Our family recently moved from Singapore to the U.S. (we have three children), relocating to the Chicago area.     I moved four months before the rest of the family, as I started with my new company.    We had an ambitious goal to find a home before the arrival of the rest of the family, that would allow us an easy transition to the kids’ schools.    I can say that Pam made it possible for us to find the right location and the ideal home.      Pam always listened to our needs, and committed more time that I would have expected to show us different areas and types of homes.    Her professionalism, coupled with a great personal interest in our requirements allowed us to find the best match in less time that I anticipated.    Pam was extremely responsive to our requests, and very flexible to accommodate our schedule - my wife and kids joined me for a house hunting trip … in three days, Pam efficiently scheduled showings for 16 houses (short list from over 40 houses that she showed me in the prior weeks).    We truly appreciated  Pam’s knowledge of the region, her expertise as a realtor, and personal care throughout this relocation.   I can say that the process would not have been as smooth without Pam’s involvement.  Pam, thank you so much.  Leonel & Maria Leonel & Maria
Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon We had an excellent experience with Pam Raia representing us as a buyer’s agent. Coming from out of town, she spent considerable amount of time to narrow our search to particular neighborhoods and listened carefully to our specific needs. She made the Experience as stress-free as possible, maintained communication via phone and emails as we requested, and made herself available even when our trips were last-minute.We bought a home that presented many unusual seller complications, and Pam was patient and on top of a complex transaction. She also referred us to many service people that made our transition to our new neighborhood much easier. Having relocated often and having worked with many different realtors from various States, Pam Raia is certainly one professional we would strongly recommend. Sincerely, Tony & Racelle A. N/A
Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon I don't typically take the time to fill out surveys on my customer experience or give detailed feedback of any kind. In this situation, I feel compelled.  Pam was a tremendous help to my wife and me as we went through the journey or purchasing our first home. Her attention to detail with our every need and quick response time was a massive help to us. I'm sure this is what every agent strives for, but we really felt like we were her only client. Pam is undoubtedly a huge asset to the Baird & Warner family and is likely recognized regularly for her achievements. Many realtors can boast big numbers, but the clients aren't always too happy with the process. I just wanted to make sure you were aware that Pam and her team made this experience a breeze for us and in turn has landed a lifelong customer. Simply put, she's a keeper. Brian M.

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon You can't do any better than Pam. She was recommended to us by a friend who already lived in Sauganash. We used Pam to buy and sell our Sauganash home. She is fantastic. She told us exactly what she thought we could get if we were in a hurry to sell and we came in $5k higher and sold in less than 3 weeks. If we had stayed in Chicago, I would never use anyone but her. She knows the Sauganash market better than anyone. Chris Chris
Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon I am very pleased with the listing, marketing, sale of my townhome.

If the numbers were to go higher than a five, she would get a 100. Linda Stulac

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Since I moved to my home from an apartment 22 years, I had never sold a home before so I knew I needed a professional. After going blurry-eyed looking at realtors on sites such as Zillow, Realtor, Trulia, and reading the neighborhood papers, I realized this is my largest sale I will ever make and I need to treat it as a major business decision. I did not want to hire family or a friend as a realtor simply because, well, I liked them. I was not sure that I could ask them the tough questions or handle constructive suggestions on my home from a friend or family member. I selected a strong representative from each of the top 4 realty companies. I asked them to bring marketing material samples to share. I was upfront with all 4 and said I’d be interviewing them and selecting the best candidate for the job. I asked them questions from my list such as: ‘Describe some of your challenging cases and how you sold those homes.’ ‘What is your marketing plan for my home?’ and ‘Tell me all of the fees I’ll need to pay.’ After the interviews there was a clear winner, and that was Pam Raia from Baird & Warner. She came prepared (way more than the others). She gave me excellent suggestions on how to prepare my home and how to stage it (I mean – really great ideas that the others did not mention). Pam is experienced, warm, knowledgeable, smart, funny and super easy to work with. She was always available and responded to my calls, emails and texts immediately. Beyond all of that she walked me through the selling process and yes, including all of the anxiety-ridden stages of selling your beloved home. She prepared me for feeling a bit miffed by the house inspector’s report. She handled the photo shoot, all of the many home site visits, the open house, the documents and the lengthy closing process. I indeed hired the best! I consider Pam way more than a realtor. She was my guidance counselor through the realty world and sold my home in 1 week! I’m packed and move next month! Thanks so much Pam. Save yourself all tha angst if you really want an expert realtor to sell your home – call Pam. Randi Z. Randi Z

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Pam is an amazing real estate agent. We had a tight timeline and a relocation package for her to navigate and she did it all with ease. She was honest with us about things we needed to get done for the showings, but kind and professional in every aspect. She accommodated last-minute showings and back-to-back open houses to make sure we were getting the foot traffic needed for an offer before Christmas. Her efforts paid off and we had an offer in just over a week. We are so grateful we had her as a partner in our sale. Kendra S.

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon “I was most impressed with Pam’s ability to understand what my long term needs were; by taking on the task of selling my condominium in an inventory ladled community, Pam sought out the features and benefits of my place over the competitors and made sure that those  were identified with each prospective buyer. Needless to say, she had a qualified buyer within weeks. Impressed with her business acumen, I rehired Pam to find my family the perfect home. Pam’s diligence in helping me find the right home and educating me on a new community was above and beyond her responsibility.

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon When my husband accepted a new job in Washington, DC, we had to mobilize quickly. We needed to sell our home of 16 years and hoped to accomplish that without being saddled with payments for residences in both DC and Chicago. We turned to Pam, who doubled down to meet our tight timeline. She suggested economical touch-ups that would help our home sell more quickly and connected us to experts who could handle the work in a timely manner. She priced our home so we could be flexible when an opportunity arose to widen our market. She got feedback after showings and kept us in the loop during the entire process. And, she provided stellar results -- our condo sold in two weeks! Through the selling and closing of our home, Pam was always available to answer questions and offer support. She knows the market and offers excellent advice. She's also friendly and understanding when she needs to calm a jittery seller. I strongly recommend Pam to Chicago-area buyers and sellers.

Despite the world literally closing up in early March 2020, Pam had our home listed and sold within 10 ten days. She was patient, thoughtful and responsive throughout the process, offering guidance on everything from pricing to painting to packing in a pandemic panicked world. Everything went according to plan and schedule and we never had a moment of worry.A true professional!

We needed to sell our parents' home. Pam helped ease us through the process, sharing her knowledge, expertise and patience. Her guidance was spot on. From preparing the property for sale, listing, and negotiating she made it so easy. Pam's compassion, professionalism, and responsiveness helped us during a stressful time. Thanks to the GREATEST Realtor!

During all of our house search and purchase process, we dealt with difficult sellers in an environment that was unknown to us. Pam went above and beyond her normal duties to help us find the house we wanted, negotiate the price and conditions for the deal, gave us local information and provided advice on features of the properties we saw that we couldn't have known about in any other way. She was supportive of all of our requests and was available all the time to resolve our questions and ease our concerns. Working with Pam in our relocation to Chicago was, undoubtedly, the best part of the whole experience. We enjoyed her company and appreciated all of her expertise and knowledge of the market and the process. We are very grateful for her help and will surely recommend her to anyone who needs the best Real Estate Agent in Chicago!

Since I moved to my home from an apartment 22 years, I had never sold a home before so I knew I needed a professional. After going blurry-eyed looking at realtors on sites such as Zillow, Realtor, Trulia and reading the neighborhood papers, I realized this is my largest sale I will ever make and I need to treat it as a major business decision. I did not want to hire family or a friend as a realtor simply because, well, I liked them. I was not sure that I could ask them the tough questions or handle constructive suggestions on my home from a friend or family member. I selected a strong representative from each of the top 4 realty companies. I asked them to bring marketing material samples to share. I was upfront with all 4 and said I’d be interviewing them and selecting the best candidate for the job.I asked them questions from my list such as:‘Describe some of your challenging cases and how you sold those homes.’‘What is your marketing plan for my home?’ and ‘Tell me all of the fees I’ll need to pay.’After the interviews there was a clear winner, and that was Pam Raia from Baird & Warner. She came prepared (way more than the others). She gave me excellent suggestions on how to prepare my home and how to stage it (I mean – really great ideas that the others did not mention). Pam is experienced, warm, knowledgeable, smart, funny and super easy to work with. She was always available and responded to my calls, emails and texts immediately. Beyond all of that she walked me through the selling process and yes, including all of the anxiety-ridden stages of selling your beloved home. She prepared me for feeling a bit miffed by the house inspector’s report. She handled the photo shoot, all of the many home site visits, the open house, the documents and the lengthy closing process. I indeed hired the best!I consider Pam way more than a realtor. She was my guidance counselor through the realty world and sold my home in 1 week! I’m packed and move next month! Thanks so much Pam. Save yourself all the angst if you really want an expert realtor to sell your home – call Pam. Randi Z.

Pam was helpful and professional. Her knowledge of our market and real estate was key to the successful sale of our home. Pam was a pleasure to work with I would give her more "stars" than provided on Zillow's scale. Any seller or buyer would be fortunate to have Pam on their team. Thanks Pam!

Pam worked with me and continued working with me through a very difficult sale. While none of the delays had to do with Pam, due to my own situation I went through one set back after another. I appreciated that Pam never gave up even when I had. At one point I threw my hands up and felt I had no options left, Pam would not let me give up and she sold my property last week. Had it not been for her persistence I would of thought it was a hopeless cause. I appreciate her sticking with me through it all. Pam definately sticks with her clients, once she has signed on with someone she is there with them.

It was a pleasure working with Pam. She is extremely reliable and flexile. She was also very understanding of my small children and worked around their nap schedules for showings and open houses. I highly recommend working with Pam. She is very knowledgeable of the area too!
