Jim Balko

Jim's performance during the whole process was outstanding! Jim was great, he explained everything throughout the proce ss, was always available for questions, and was able to sell our house in a very short amount of time. The recommendation from my coworker was most important due to the fact that it was someone that had already gone through the sale process and had first hand knowledge of Jim's performance, before, during, and after the sale, and just as my coworker recommended Jim to me I'll be recommending Jim to others. ...

From the first contact, Jim was prepared and displayed himself as a professional. He had the data ready during the first contact and proved why he was the best to perform the sale. He made the process easy, as I was also buying another home in another state at the same time. Jim went over and beyond. Was a great person to have during this process ... Read more

Randy & Pennie Jensen, Peoria

My wife and I were so fortunate to have found Jim. As our Realtor, he helped us find the right house in the right neighb orhood for the right price. He was patient as we traveled from home to Home over several weeks and forewarned us about making unreasonable offers for the home in mind, knowing the comps in the surrounding neighborhoods. In short, Jim was always on OUR side working to make our house purchase as simple and successful as possible, not looking for a quick buck which is difficult to find in the reality business.The best part about working with Jim was that he was always more focused on answering our questions, giving us good advice, and finding homes that met OUR needs, more than he was on closing a deal, always willing to do what’s right for his clients not his back pocket. We would recommend him to anyone. - The Scott’s ... Read more

When we started looking for our dream house, we were totally unaware of the process of buying the house. Jim Balko not o nly helped us in finding our new house but also helped us sail smoothly through the whole process. On each step,be it the inspection or appraisal,he was always there. He helped us understand each and every findings in inspection. He was always available to answer all our queries and doubts throughout the process. He is so approachable we used to message him in wee hours too. Without his help and support we would have lost in the process. He did excellent negotiations on price as well as inspection findings. He helped us understand so many new terminologies as we were first time home buyers. He found lenders who could help us to find best interest rate. He was so patient with us throughout the process. Even after closing , he continued helping us with fixtures, electric stuff ( being expert electrician himself he understands circuits in house very well). He showed us how stuff works around and is still helping us with nitty gritty stuff. We are so happy we got opportunity to work with him and are thankful to him for all the support and help he offered. I am definitely referring him to my friends and recommending him to everyone. ...
