When a friend died and named me the executor of her trust, I was faced with selling her Winnetka home. I was totally at a loss until a friend suggested I call Carol Hunt. I did, and it was the best thing I could have done. From the time we first met, Carol listened, heard my concerns and knew just how to position the home to attract the right buyers. Within literally hours, Carol called to tell me she had a cash offer for the full asking price, “as is,” no inspection and a quick closing date. The sale was completed in a matter of weeks. In sum, if you are looking for a realtor with experience working in the North Shore, you have many choices. But if you want the best realtor, call Carol Hunt.

In our opinion, Carol is the best real estate agent for buying OR selling your home. When we became empty nesters, she helped us sell our home of 20 years and find a townhouse in Winnetka - not an easy feat! There were difficulties with that purchase and Carol's professionalism was evident in the way she smoothed ruffled feathers and made everything work. Now we are hunting for our next move and once again using Carol as we feel she is the best listing agent we could choose.

I've worked with Carol for over a decade and have found her to be smart, charming, and direct. She's been a pleasure to know.
