Nick was the BEST realtor. It was our first time seriously exploring condo ownership and he was patient and gave us a ton of industry knowledge that we didn't think to ask about. He's been doing this a long time and he doesn't just know about one side of the city or a couple neighborhoods. I've already recommended him to many friends/family.

I had an amazing experience working with Nick. From the start, he took the time to truly understand what I was looking for in a home and went above and beyond to find the perfect property. His expertise, attention to detail, and responsiveness made the entire process seamless and stress-free. Every step was clear, and he was always available to answer any questions or provide guidance. I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor, and I highly recommend Lachezar(Nick) Tomanov to anyone looking to buy a home!

I highly recommend Nikola Dakovic with Vesta Preferred Realty for anyone buying in Chicago, especially in the West Loop, River North or Gold Coast. As a naturally skeptical person, I approached the home-buying process with some hesitation. However, Nikola quickly earned my trust with his sincerity, good humor, and deep knowledge of the market. What stood out most was how he treated my family—with kindness, respect, and genuine care. He was patient, accommodating, and always made us feel like a priority, no matter how many questions we asked or how specific our needs were. Thanks to his guidance and professionalism, what could have been a stressful experience turned into an exciting, fun and memorable journey. If you’re looking for someone who’s not just a great realtor but also a trustworthy and thoughtful person, I highly recommend Nikola.

Joe Nicastro and the team at Vesta Preferred are top tier real estate professionals. I recently completed my seventh home purchase and Joe and team made it the best experience I’ve ever had. At the start of my home buying journey, Joe was eager to understand my criteria. He was thoughtful about the feedback I provided during the process. When we found my dream home (and yes, he DID find it), his closing team was amazing. My only regret is that I plan to live in my new home forever so I may not have a chance to work with this great team again! 😉

We worked with Nick and Jenny at Vesta Preferred. We were first time home buyers which can be extremely intimidating. How lucky were we to have Nick and Jenny guide us through this process. Nick was passionate to find us our forever home and give us his honest opinion throughout our search. Nick is available, reliable, and professional. I would absolutely recommend him to close friends and family. THANK YOU VESTA!

Lina Lee and the Vesta team made the entire process of finding and purchasing a new home easy and low stress, even in the current market. Lina was great to work with from start to finish, including great insights about the area, ins and outs of the offer and process, and all our follow up questions before and after the closing. I always felt like she was looking out for my best interests and up front with any issues or concerns. She is quick to respond, takes responsibility and provides lots of guidance. I highly recommend Lina to anyone looking for a real estate agent.

Our family has worked with RNP exclusively for all our real estate needs for the past 7 years. They are friendly and accommodating, and they really work to minimize the stress and difficulties of the process. I first started working with the group when I was moving to Chicago from Los Angeles and I needed to find a rental. It's not easy trying to do that from halfway across the country, but we were able to see half a dozen showings in one day that all met my criteria and signed a lease that very weekend. Since then, my husband and I have worked with the group on buying a condo, buying a house, as well as finding renters for leasing out a condo unit. Every time we work with the group we are amazed and impressed by the service and professionalism. They also are very easy to work with and we always feel comfortable working with the team, you get the feeling that you're just working with a friend who always has your best interest in mind. Especially in today's market, they're people you can trust and I would recommend RNP to anyone looking for a realtor for buying, selling, leasing, or any other realtor needs that might come up.

Greg made me feel so at ease and comfortable throughout the entire process. He’s super responsive and professional and ensures that all his clients are extremely happy! I didn’t even hesitate when I reached out to him a few months ago to sell my condo. Everyone on his team was amazing and my place sold in 2 weeks!!

Working with Grigory and his team at RNP Group was better than what we could have hoped for. As first time buyers, we immediately felt like we were in good hands and continued to feel that way at every milestone. They clearly lay out the entire home buying process and what happens from day one until after you close, give very open and honest feedback about listings, quickly communicate at all the right points, and connect you to great vendors along the way. Their referrals for our mortgage pre-approval and lawyers were great and saved us so much time and effort on our end while also ending up as our vendors throughout the entire process.

We worked with Greg and his awesome team at RNP to sell a condo and buy a house. Liz helped us find our forever home and Michelle helped to sell our condo at the highest price in the history of the building. They are a well-oiled machine -- from marketing, to inspections, to attorney review -- the whole process was really easy. Jenny's Wednesday updates kept us informed throughout the entire process. Buying and selling in this crazy market is stressful enough, let alone during a global pandemic, but RNP made it as easy as possible. Would definitely recommend.
