Working with the Pickard group made buying a home in a difficult market feel easy. David was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer any question we had thoroughly. He demonstrated great patience while assisting us find the perfect home. We will 110% use the Pickard group when buying or selling our next home and highly recommend the person reviewing this to as well.

Ron has been excellent with helping my wife and I. We landed in Arlington Heights from Pasadena, CA. Ron was always professional and reliable with us. He did a great job managing the properties he referred to us and really listened to what we were looking for. He was flexible in meeting with my brother-in-law (who was local) to show properties and was comfortable with our Face Time request because we were in California.

We really appreciated the whole experience from The Pickard Group and would definitely recommend them. Ron, Thank You for everything and we appreciated finally getting to meet you in person. Wishing you guys nothing but the best!!

We had the pleasure of working with Ron as first time home buyers. As our buyer's agent, he guided and mentored us throughout the whole process. He's incredibly knowledgeable and answered many questions patiently. He was available to answer every correspondence no matter the time of day or night. He was attentive to the needs that we specifically had and tailored his advice to the circumstances that we had. His honesty steered us away from a few lemons. His network of good, efficient and knowledgeable people (lender, inspectors and attorney) made the process painless. He organized everything while under contract, which really helped to take the pressure off of us. From start to finish he was kind and a constant professional. Super easy and painless first time home buying experience.

So, if you're seeking an experienced realty professional to guide you through the home buying process, The Pickard Group is a must.

Ron Pickard is an incredible realtor and we were fortunate that we got to work with him on our home sale. He partnered with us every step of the way! He gave great advice on getting the house ready for sale and helped us prioritize where we should focus. He made awesome suggestions on making the home look amazing without asking us to spend a ton on expensive repairs. His advice totally paid off - our house sold the same weekend it was put on the market and we got a very attractive offer. Furthermore, Ron continued to help us even post sale and was highly responsive throughout. He patiently answered all our questions, set expectations for each step of the process and helped us with numerous referrals. Ron is an absolute pleasure to work with and he’s phenomenal at his work!

Ron, Susan and the Pickard team go above and beyond! In 2021 we decide to move to IL, relocating from CT. A friend recommended Ron to help find a rental for our family. Ron was able to set up several condos for us to view remotely. He video taped walk throughs, showing us all the ins and outs of the properties. We signed on and moved in. Fast forward 8 months, Ron helped us find our first house, in the neighborhood we wanted. With an extremely tight market, he got us into showings within 24hrs, and pointed out issues he saw with the homes. He is honest and straightforward, good humored and always on time. He guided us through the process of negotiating on our home; he set us up with mortgage support and a great home inspector, as well as a rolodex of contractors and local tradespeople. The Pickard Group support has been fantastic and we will continue to recommend them to friends and family looking for their next move.
