Working with Sheila has been a dream. My house seemed unsellable but she had faith, was very experienced and knew she could get it sold. We listed it on the private market found the perfect buyer and the house was sold in less than a month. She was incredible to work with! Don’t hesitate working with Compass.

These days there are many choices you can make to find the right realtor who has your best interest in mind, and provides top notch attention to detail throughout the entire process. Tanya Blevins checked all the boxes, and I could not be more satisfied. She is definetly on my recommendation list for anyone looking for outstanding service.

Our family recently worked with Amy Foote to sell our parents' house in Elgin. What we initially expected to be a lengthy and complicated process turned out to be quick and seamless. The listing description and photos captured the essence of the home, and we truly believe they helped attract potential buyers. Throughout the process, Amy was ALWAYS available to answer questions with an immediate reply. She kept us updated on showings and feedback, which felt like it happened almost hourly once the house hit the market. She negotiated the best offers, explained whatever we didn’t understand about the process and guided us toward the best decision for our family. We ultimately sold the home for more than our asking price! There were no last-minute glitches in the sale. We believe this was largely due to Amy’s knowledge and experience in her field. We sincerely appreciate Amy’s hard work, dedication, and expertise. We wholeheartedly recommend her!

We just sold our house with Sheila and she has been an incredible to work with from the very beginning. She is kind, smart, confident, and will fight for you. Even through uncertainties, she helps you feel confident while also taking the time and expertise to guide you through different situations. She listens so well and we really felt her go above and beyond for us. It’s been a whirlwind of a ride to get from listing to closing, but she was incredible every step of the way. We couldn’t be more thankful and you couldn’t find a better realtor. Highly recommend her and her team!

We worked with Sheila as international buyers and the situation was fantastic. We felt catered too, she was available at all hours when we had questions, and there were no hiccups in our purchasing process. Would recommend 100%.

Buying a home remotely was scary, but Sheila made it easy. She understood my needs, kept communication open, and did great market research. Thanks to her, I got a great deal on my new home. If you need a realtor, Sheila's the one!

Sheila is wonderful, her professionalism and attention to detail is unmatched. Besides being a phenomenal realtor that listens to her clients, she goes the extra mile by offering options for financing and real estate attorneys. Sheila and Compass Realty are definitely worth using. I will definitely refer Sheila to all my friends and family.

We HIGHLY recommend! Home buying can be stressful, if Amy is your realtor it eliminates quite a bit of it. She is so communicative, you will always know what is going on, before during and after. Choose Compass you will not regret it! Thank you for everything!

Five years ago, Kathryn Festen stood in my very first home with my mom, my boyfriend, and me while we made the decision to put in an offer — and yes, we all cried together like we were in the season finale of a very emotional HGTV show. Fast forward 5 years later, and Kathy helped us find our next “perfect” property… which, to be fair, was more “potential-filled disaster with good bones” than perfect. But we saw the vision, and Kathy did too. What followed was one of the most chaotic buying experiences imaginable, complete with former owners refusing to leave the property on closing day. But through every stressful moment, Kathy and her team were absolute rock stars. They answered every question, calmed every panic spiral, and somehow managed to make us laugh through the madness. They even helped coordinate secure ownership of the property, connected us with junk removers, cleaners, storage for our moving trucks, contractors, lawyers — basically everyone short of an exorcist (though at one point we considered asking). Kathy’s support goes so far beyond “realtor.” She genuinely cares about her clients and treats you like family through every high, low, and complete dumpster-fire moment of the process. We are endlessly grateful for her passion, patience, humor, and determination to help us find the right home time and time again. If you want a realtor who will celebrate with you, fight for you, and probably survive a real estate apocalypse alongside you, Kathy is your person.

Kathy Festen was our realtor when we sold our home of 39 years. She was incredibly helpful. We first spoke to her 5 years ago, when we were first thinking about selling. We touched base with her a couple times before we were ready and she was always patient, letting us know that we would know when the time was right. When we were ready, she was incredibly helpful and very reasonable with recommendations that would help us get the best possible price. She clearly understood the market in our area and how to best show a house. She met with us several times and never rushed us or made us feel like we were taking too much of her time. As we went through the process, she had great advice and recommendations on people and businesses we needed to complete the sale and get packed and out of our home. We were out of the state when it went on the market, but everything flowed smoothly through the whole process. She was with us every step of the way! She had beautiful photos taken (we treasure having them!) and our home sold the first day for more than our asking price! If you are looking to sell your home or buy a home, you can’t do better than Kathy Festen at Compass!

Kathryn Festen was a wonder to work with! She was on top of showing us anywhere we wanted, and kept our heads on straight when somewhere was just not meant for our needs. She was a huge help throughout the entire process and made sure any issues that arose were dealt with swiftly. She truly only wanted the best for us.

I've had the pleasure of working with Amy in the past to buy a house, and just had the pleasure of working with her to sell a house. Amy is extremely knowledgeable, and provides great insights, communication, and makes you feel confident as a buyer or seller. Whether I am looking to buy or sell in the future, I will always look to enlist Amy's assistance!

Working with Kathryn Festen was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. From our first conversation, we felt like we were in good hands. She took the time to really understand what we needed, and never once made us feel rushed or pressured. It felt like we were working with a trusted friend-someone who truly had OUR best interest at heart. Kathy was patient, knowledgeable, transparent and incredibly responsive. Every question we had(and there were a lot) was answered with clarity, kindness and understanding. When unexpected things came up, Kathy handled them calmly and professionally, always keeping us informed and grounded. What meant the most to us was how much Kathy genuinely cared-not just about a closing deal, but making sure we were comfortable and confident every step of the way. That kind of care is rare. We are so grateful we had Kathy by our side, and we’d recommend Kathy to anyone one without hesitation.

I have been working with Kathy to sell my home and my rental property. She is fabulous! She is personable and she knows her job! She dove right in with both properties and currently they are both under contract. She will keep you informed and answer your questions in a timely manner. She is on it! I really appreciate it when someone goes that extra mile and works hard. Thank you Kathy! It's been a pleasure.

I can't say enough positive remarks about working with Kathryn Festen as my realtor. From the very first moment I was connected through her via a recommendation, she was on top of everything and so attentive to my questions and desires in purchasing my first home. She is honest and never makes you feel like she's just trying to get a sale - she cares about finding the right home for YOU while being realistic about the current market. Communication was stellar at all steps of the journey, even after the purchase is concluded. I feel confident I could contact her at any time for assistance in any matters related to my home. I also loved the use of the Compass App which tailors home recommendations based on your preferences and allows you to organize interested/not interested smoothly to help wade through homes on the market (or coming soon). Lastly, Kathy has a great team of connections who I could similarly rave about including a contract lawyer and lender to help minimize the work of finding and vetting your own. I would recommend Kathy and this company to any family and friends!

Kathryn was absolutely amazing throughout my home-buying journey! As a first-time homebuyer, I had so many questions and concerns, but Kathryn’s expertise, patience, and support made the entire process smooth and manageable. She was always quick to respond and flexible with scheduling showings, which made it so much easier to navigate a competitive market. Her thoughtful tips and advice were invaluable, especially for someone new to the experience. Kathryn truly went above and beyond to guide me every step of the way, making sure I felt confident and informed throughout the process. I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor, and I highly recommend Kathryn for all your home-buying needs!

Sheila Wollmuth was amazing! This was our first time selling a home and Sheila made the process as smooth as possible. Shelia was well-informed on the local market and helped us make informed decisions. She took the time to explain each stage of the process step-by-step, was patient with all of our questions, and was communicative throughout. Sheila went above and beyond in supporting us, from getting our home ready for showings all the way through closing. We are so grateful for all her kindness and positivity.

I recently sold my home after living in it for almost 24 years. To say I was nervous about the whole selling process was an understatement. I was introduced to Amy Foote and her team Foote through a friend's referral. After our initial meeting, I felt relieved that I was working with a professional (not someone who is in real estate part time). Throughout the selling process, Amy was always updating me, explaining each step (something I appreciated). As we approached the closing date, the unthinkable happened, the buyers financing fell through. Almost immediately, Amy stepped up and was able to guide the buyer's realtor through the process to get the buyer re-qualified. Without Amy's help, I truly believe the whole deal would have fallen apart. Amy is a true professional. If you are in the buying or selling scenario, I highly recommend giving Amy Foote a call.

I really enjoyed working with Amy Foote. She is the consummate professional. I hired Amy to help me sale my home. Upon my first one on one meeting with Amy my first impressions were her professionalism, and how well she understood the current market trends in my area. She reassured me numerous times my home would sell quickly. To assist with getting the most money out of the home she put me in contact with a home stager (Sheila) who was fabulous in her suggestions of how best to show the house which I did my best to follow. Another thing that impressed me was her communication from start to finish. I have known friends and family who have worked with other realtors and barely heard from them after they signed the contract. I felt once I signed with Amy, I became part of her team, and she took me under her wing and helped educate me in the process of selling a home. Her weekly status updates and reach outs when she needed more information for me made me feel I was included in the process from start to finish. She responded timely to answer all my questions and eased my worries and concerns throughout the process. Once things in my life calm down a bit and I am ready to purchase my next home, Amy will be the first and only person I will contact.
