I can’t say enough good things about working with our agent Leah and the rest of the support team here at team Hernandez. Many and his team are wonderful people. They not only helped me buy a house but sell my house. They lined everything up seamlessly and we closed on both homes the same day. In a situation where so many things could have gone wrong they really came through and even made things very easy.

October 2023 my fiancé and I wanted to look into shortening our current rental lease in search of a home. Naive on where to start I signed up for a tour through Zillow for a few showings to test the market. Knowing we were looking to purchase in a historically high interest rate environment, we were weary as first time home buyers. The first home tour put us in contact with Luciano Garcia with Team Hernandez. To start Luciano is extremely well versed in his field and very experienced. Paired with Luciano’s consistent open communication makes a great customer service experience for first time buyers in a volatile market. We saw around 4-5 homes that didn’t meet our low fixer up expectations, cost, and space. This was a first of hurdles that Luciano helped clear in the home buying process. We regrouped for an information session discussing our non-negotiable, the full home buying process, detailing closing cost, estimated mortgage payments, cost outside of closing and etc.. Understanding our wants and needs Luciano showed us an off the market home. At first sight we loved the home, but still wanted to keep our options open. But nothing compared to the price, location,space, and aesthetic possibilities. The selling process was tricky with the seller being more arduous than we anticipated. There was a lot of work on our end and Luciano’s to close the deals price, inspection tasks,and final closing date. There were pitfalls in the process leaving me and my fiancé uncertain of the deal going through. Overall it was a testament to Luciano’s ability to negotiation, mediate, and articulate each parties needs and a deal was finalized. I and my fiancé can speak highly of recommending Luciano Garcia from team Hernandez to provide you quality service, exponential knowledge, communication, and most importantly a new home you will love.

I am so glad that I came in to contact with My Realtor Arnie and the Team Hernandez family. I said "family" because that's how I was made to feel from beginning to even after closing. Arnie is the absolute most amazing agent you can ask for. He is extremely knowledgeable and made me feel at peace with the entire home buying process. His professionalism was top notch, making sure you were aware of all the details to feel comfortable about your decisions. If you are looking to purchase a home, look no further Team Hernandez has got you covered!

Great realtor. He was patient with us on our home purchase. Which he helped us purchase this home that we lived in and remodeled it. He also referred contractors to us to help us with jobs that we felt we couldn't handle. When he called and asked if we were interested in selling. We had no questions that he would find us the right buyer that would care for the home we put so much work into. He was impressed with how we remodel this home when he stopped by to help with the home inspection when we were out of town. He is such a great resource for knowing all the ins and outs of the real estate process. He is also someone I would call my friend after all the help he gave us through the buying and selling process. No question in my mind I would recommend him to friends and family. He would be the first one I would call to help in this process again. He fought for our price when we bought and he made sure we got a fair price when we sold. Thank you Manny. Donald and Nikki.

I worked with Luciano Garcia this past month and it was an absolute dream. I knew next to nothing about the home owning process other than it was scary to think about. He immediately set all worries aside with his extensive knowledge and go getter attitude. He paid attention to the things my fiancé and I wanted and gave countless pointers along the way. He got us a house that had 9 other offers on the table and even seller concessions in this crazy market! He was constantly available through out the entire process to help settle any anxieties and was extremely personable as well. 10/10 now carry his business cards in case anyone needs a realtor

I would 1000% recommend Team Hernandez for anyone considering selling their current home or buying their next home. Another huge bonus, was that everything was in house for us. He recommended the loan officer and the inspection company etc. The inspector was VERY thorough, and even he had nothing but good things to say about Manny!!

My husband and I worked with Luciano to buy our forever home for us and our two small kids. We had very specific wants and needs, but Luciano was ready to help us find the perfect house in a very competitive market. When a listing for our absolute dream house appeared, he arranged for us to see it same day, and we had our offer accepted in under a week. I recently mentioned to my husband that I can't believe our luck to find this perfect home so well suited for our family, and he corrected me: it was a little bit of luck and a lot of our amazing realtor. Luciano always had our best interests at heart, like when he steered us away from a house that online looked like a real contender, but in person had some expensive fixes that we were just not prepared to take on. He was never unavailable whenever we had questions or concerns, and made the entire process so smooth and enjoyable. We cannot recommend Luciano and Team Hernandez enough, truly. Thank you Lu and team--we are so grateful for everything you've done for us.

Manny Hernandez and his team are very knowledgeable, genuine, and super caring. As a young first time homebuyer, my fiancé and I didn’t know exactly what we were looking for at the beginning. Manny definitely showed consistent patience and was also trying to find us the best value. Once we were in his buying system, we would get new properties sent to us via email almost everyday. I appreciated this becuase it made it easy to see new listings without having to visit different websites. Communication is what I appreciated the most about Manny’s team, he was always available to jump on a quick call to explain something to me and my fiancé. Manny’s reputation and network allowed us to land a property that never hit the market. We got a property that we both loved because of him, there’s no chance we would’ve won a bidding war. I appreciate Manny’s willingness to advocate for us on deals, I always felt that we had leverage in our side even though we were first time home buyers becuase of his expertise. We worked with Manny for about 8-9 months, his customer service and care that he showed us makes it hard to ever recommend a different realtor.

We were trying to move from Illinois to Indiana and Manny Hernandez was who our Illinois realtor highly recommended. From the start Manny was super professional and explained the step by step process we would go thru in order to find our perfect home. We saw what feel like hundreds of homes and no matter how picky we were about exactly what we were looking for, Manny and his team always reassured us we would find our perfect home. When we felt discouraged they always reassured us and kept actively searching. Doing whatever it took… last minute showings and working along our crazy busy schedule. Four months later, we finally found the perfect home. Manny, Lu, and Arnie were the best always made time no matter what to make us feel like we were their top priority customer!

As a first-time home buyer, I was very overwhelmed by the prospect of buying a home, especially in this crazy market where homes are sold within 24 hours. I'm incredibly thankful I had reached out to Manny and had him on my side as a buyer agent. In addition to figuring out exactly what sort of home I was looking for, he was able to consistently find homes that matched my requirements even before they hit the market. He also took a lot of time to answer any questions/concerns I had and always responded very promptly.
I was able to close on a home without having to enter into a bidding war. This was only possible due to Manny's expertise as a buyer agent. I highly recommend Manny if you are looking to buy a new home!

Upgrading from a condo to a house 🏡 was not as stressful and confusing as expected, because we had an awesome team to work with. Manny Hernandez and his team ensured we understood every step of the process, answered every question clearly and quickly, and made sure we did not stress. Selling and purchasing our properties was comfortable and easy with Team Hernandez.

I was a first time home buyer and worked with Luciano. He was very professional and helped me every step of the way! He went above and beyond to help me find the perfect house. It took awhile to find a house that I finally liked but Luciano was patient with me and answered all my questions I had. Definitely recommend Luciano as your relator!

Luciano was great . I am not easy to please and he was did not give up and was very helpful . He listened to what I liked and didn’t like and had homes lined up to look at . He was always available and was able to get us into showings almost immediately for most homes. 100% recommend . He was very knowledgeable and made sure we weren’t getting ripped off in any way . Being a first time home buyer is stressful and he has made every step reassuring and smooth !

People say quality, speed, cost, pick two. Well Team Hernandez can do it all. I was 27 yo, looking to purchase my first home. From the pre-approval to closing day, these guys were invaluable throughout the entire process and always a phone call or text message away for any questions I had.
Luciano was the one who found properties to view and consider and I never felt any pressure… didn’t even feel like I was being sold on something. He was great at showing the pros and cons of everything we looked at, and that really made the decision easy. I’ve been in my home for a year now and I couldn’t be more pleased.
If you’re in the market, definitely consider Team Hernandez. I know I will be back in the future.

The team of Manny and Laura, Team Hernandez were so great to work with. My realtor that was assigned to me, Arnulfo Villar, was so patient, friendly, and considerate of our home buying needs. Being a first time homebuyer, i didn't know what to expect and felt not ready to buy a home. But the great, talented people at Team Hernandez gave me encouragement and shared all their knowledge with me, and it was because of them, that I am a homebuyer today. If you are reading this and are unsure of where to start, please reach out to team Hernandez, they will definitely come through for you!!!

I loved working with Arnie at Team Hernandez because he helped us find our dream home. Arnie is professional, dependable, knowledgeable, and friendly. Arnie took the stress out of a complicated time in buying and made sure we got what we wanted. I also loved working with Manny. He guided me in selling my home. Through his guidance, I was able to sell my house fast! Manny’s expertise was greatly appreciated!

My home buying process began with a different realtor. Being a health care worker with a very busy schedule and very specific requirements for my home, I was elated to find a realtor who was available when our schedules permitted us to see the homes and to answer any questions or concerns, very knowledgeful preparing us on day one with what to expect, and professional yet personable enough to put our minds at ease during the process. As first time homeowners we were fearful of horror stories we heard in the past about the home buying process. This was DEFINITELY NOT THE CASE WITH MANNY!!! We worked with a realtor for months but never saw what we were looking for online, and opportunities to view homes were delayed. However, after contacting Manny, we meet and 3 days later we were looking at our first set of houses. Within three weeks, we found our dream home, placed a SOLID OFFER, with Manny’s guidance, and were ACCEPTED the same day, closing on the house a few weeks later. Manny is PROOF that with the right team on your side, you TRULY CAN move into your dream home, I know we definitely did!! We are one month in without a single regret! If you want great results, you MUST have a great realtor, and Manny is it!!!

Our experience with Team Hernandez was a unique one, filled with lots of ups and downs. We worked exclusively with Manny Hernandez. Our initial plan was to look for our "dream home" in the spring of 2021. We ended up finding a home that looked amazing and contacted Manny so we could see it. We viewed the home on 2 separate visits before we made an offer on it and got approved for the loan amount. We got the home under contract so now we just needed to sell our home. That's where things got difficult. We invested around $40-$50k over 13 years in our home with updates ranging from a new roof, doors and windows to remodeled kitchen and bathrooms. But, our home became difficult to sell for 1 simple reason. Our backyard view was of a trailer park neighborhood and that discouraged almost every potential buyer. We never had any issues with anyone in the trailer community but, as Manny explained, it's the perception of the "trailer homes" that gives a bad image. After a month of showings, we didn't get a single offer and we were forced to lower our asking price. That meant that we couldn't afford the home we had under contract. This was very discouraging. Of course, shortly after we had to let the other home go, we received an offer on our home. After a little back and forth negotiating, we agreed to an asking price of $270k. Now, we needed to find another new home for ourselves. We looked at a LOT of other homes but nothing was really grabbing our interests and we began reconsidering not selling at all anymore. That's when Manny really came through. He found us a home that wasn't even listed yet. The owner wasn't planning to list until the spring, just like us. The home was very nice, but it took a while to really convince ourselves that it was the right one for us. It came with an in-ground pool, which we weren't really looking for. We ended up seeing the same home 3 times before we decided to move forward with making an offer. Everything fell into place after that. Our home's selling price allowed us to give a 15% down payment on our new home and still afforded us some profits from the sale. We were expecting to profit about $8k but we ended up with over $14K instead ! Manny and his team work diligently for us. They did everything they could to make the entire process as smooth as possible, guiding us through every step of the process. There were moments where we felt that Manny was being too unbiased, trying to please both the sellers of our new home and us, which made us feel like he wasn't "fighting" for us. But, he quickly reassured us that he always had our best interests in mind. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Team Hernandez ! You won't be disappointed.

I was looking to buy a house in the beginning of January and had a lot of things I needed to work on first so I didn't end up finding a house until end of October early November. That whole time my realtor Luciano would call and check on me and my family, see if I had any questions, help me if I had any issues, and send me houses to browse when I could start looking for a house to purchase! All around very committed and very friendly! Helped out with so much between explaining the process of purchasing and the steps of closing. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

Our lovely home was for sale for several months with very little or no prospects.
Manny and Laura sold our beautiful property in less than 48 hours.
They guided us, made choices for us, and help us make choices that was all in our best interest.
Our experience with this team was a professional, personal, and pleasant experience.

I couldn’t be more thankful to my realtor for such a perfect home buying experience! Luciano helped me find a home in December 2017 and again in June 2020, and there’s no doubt he’s the reason everything was so seamless both times. From landing me the townhome of my dreams, putting in work after hours, sending me documents the second they became available, to making sure any issues with my lender or confusion was resolved on the spot, he guided me through every single step of the way. He even went above and beyond to make sure than closing day was as special as it could possibly be. I saw how much effort he put into a process that almost always goes unrecognized, so I can’t emphasize how much recognition he deserves for all of his hard work behind the scenes. After two great experiences as a first and second-time homebuyer, l’d recommend Lu and Team Hernandez to anyone looking to buy/sell a home.

Manny helped make our entire “first time home buying” experience amazing, despite the fact that our state was on lock down. He holds an initial meeting that is very informative and reassuring. He was very responsive, and rather quick, whenever we had questions or wanted to add a house to our “look list”. He’s very knowledgeable, honest, and always had our best interest at heart when looking at houses. I would definitely recommend him and his team to anyone that is in the market to buy or sell a home.

My wife and I were first time homebuyers and our realtor was Manny. As a first time homebuyer I wasn’t sure what to expect and thought a realtor only interest was to make their commission and not care for the individual best interest. I was totally mistaken with team Hernandez. Manny listened to my wife’s opinion and liking which she was amazed someone took the time to care and gave feedback. Looking at homes was easier then I expected as Manny was able to narrow our liking so we could maximize our viewing during Covid-19.
Manny’s honest opinion when looking at potential homes we liked said a lot. An example of this was a home I REALLY liked in Lake of The Four Season’s and price was around the range my wife and I were comfortable at but, Manny then explained HOA fees and regulations. He did the math on the property and took into consideration my growing family. He convinced my wife to keep looking and myself to carefully think future wise with growing family's and how space can become a factor. Manny has a talent in balancing a married couple’s tastes which isn’t easy and for that I appreciate team Hernandez.
Team Hernandez made our dreams come true and are now PROUD HOMEOWNERS!!!!!

Manny, I just wanted to share a quick note to let you know that you are an amazing person and you are really excellent in your job. I’m glad I decided to have you and your team assist me searching for a home. It has been a great honor.
Since the first time we met to discuss my priorities and expectations you gave me the confidence that you could help me finding the perfect home and you did it! You handled every step of the process with impeccable discipline, showed me every single home that I liked from the listings, provided me a full description of those places, gave me your honest opinion in the pros and cons of every home we visited, in the top of that you were always there, in a promptly manner, every time I needed you when communicating and negotiating with the owners, and you helped me save a total of $19,000 on the purchase price!
Your support was essential, I feel that you really care about your clients’ success. I am extremely grateful for the dedication, integrity and effort you worked with while representing me.
You offered me the highest standard of representation and thanks to you and your team I ended up with an amazing home, that you closed in a great deal.
