"We must have been guided to Steve because from the second we started talking to him, we felt totally comfortable. Steve is a guy who cares a lot about people yet he knows a ton in the real estate market. If you want someone who’s been doing this a long time, but cares more about you as a person than making a buck, Steve’s your man."

"Steve helped me sell my mom’s old house on Murdock Ave this summer. We posted the house in late June, had offers by July, and closed in August. Steve worked tirelessly, he hand cleared shrubs to improve curb appeal, and secured backup offers to make sure I got the best deal possible. I’d recommend his services to anyone selling a home where his real estate license allows him to sell."

  -steve ostrowski, Client

"Steve Ivan is absolutely the best agent my husband and I have ever worked with in the years of experience we have had buying and selling real estate. From the starting point of clearly advising us about current market conditions to strategically pricing our home, to aiding us in enhancing the attractiveness of our property to potential buyers, to quickly securing interested and suitable buyers for our home, to deftly helping us through the contractual and closing processes as well as to guiding the inspection and appraisal processes, to personally aiding in repairs needed for our home, to keeping us appropriately informed, to navigating quirky personalities (ourselves included :) ) and to closing the deal at a time when the market and economy are unsettled in a major way. We could not be happier with the outcome, the price, and the dedication that Steve put in toward helping us achieve our goals in a timely and even-handed manner. We are very grateful to have found him. "
