We really appreciated her staging advice, market knowledge, communication, and guidance throughout the entire process. She never made us feel pressured and was always there when we needed her. We are very grateful for her support and would highly recommend her! Thank you Mandy!

Fantastic experience: Working with Mandy was the best decision we made. She guided us through selling our previous home with professionalism, honesty, and outstanding communication every step of the way. When our first buyer fell through, Mandy had a second buyer lined up within 24 hours, keeping the process on track and minimizing any delays. Her expertise and dedication made what could have been a stressful experience feel manageable. What truly set Mandy apart was her commitment to us throughout the entire journey. She consistently answered all of our questions, no matter how big or small, and took the time to walk us through every step of both the selling and buying process. We always felt informed, supported, and confident because we knew Mandy had our best interests at heart. She also helped us find and purchase our dream home. She listened carefully to what we were looking for, was incredibly patient throughout the search, and never made us feel pressured. Instead, she went above and beyond to make sure we found the perfect home for our family. Mandy's knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and genuine care for her clients are second to none.

Fantastic experience: 5-Star Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommend! Exceptional Realtor Who Delivered Results I recently worked with Mandy Montford to sell my house, and the entire experience exceeded every expectation. From our very first meeting, she demonstrated deep knowledge of the local market and created a strategic plan tailored specifically to my home and goals. Mandy handled everything with professionalism and care. The marketing was outstanding—professional photos, virtual tours, and targeted outreach that generated multiple showings right away. My house received several strong offers and sold for above asking price in just days! What truly stood out was the constant communication and support. She kept me informed at every step, patiently answered all my questions (even the small ones), and expertly negotiated on my behalf. The closing process was a relativly smooth and stress-free process thanks to her attention to detail. If you're looking for a realtor who is trustworthy, skilled, and truly committed to getting you the best outcome, look no further. Mandy made selling my home a positive and rewarding experience. I couldn't be happier with the results and would use her again in a heartbeat! In fact, this is the second home Mandy sold for me in the last 2 years, both experiences were almost identical! Thank you, Mandy Montford! — Dan

She was recommended to us by 2 different friends who had worked with her to sell their homes. After speaking with a few different agents, it was clear we wanted to work with Mandy. Then Covid hit and our plans were put on hold. When we decided to list our home again this year there was never a doubt who we would work with. She had great advice on the things we needed to do to get the house ready, answered all our questions on the process and was a pleasure to work with. Our house sold in 1 day and we got everything we asked for. Throughout the closing process Mandy continued to be a great help to us. Everything sailed through with no problems.

Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Mandy helped me sell my condo. Results were quick and better than I had anticipated. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: After moving to Texas and deciding to relocate back to Illinois, the only person we thought to call was Mandy Montford. She was able to help us find a home here in Illinois while we were still residing in Texas. She was super communicative and made time in her schedule to show us homes. She also assisted with the stress of finalizing the details so we could buy the home in our ideal neighborhood. If you you looking for someone who is a go-getter and will answer the phone when you need to talk about the house selling details, Mandy Montford is the woman to call.

Fantastic experience: We recently worked with Mandy Montford to purchase a home in Crystal Lake. We feel very fortunate to have found her. Mandy listened to what we wanted and then she found the perfect home for us! Mandy was recommended to us by the realty team that sold our condo in Evanston. She was a pleasure to work with: so responsive, easy- going yet very hard-working and most importantly she understood exactly what we were looking for in our future home. She was very professional throughout the entire process and unbelievably helpful in recommending everything from contractors to kitchen designers to hair dressers. Mandy Montford is everything you could hope for in a real estate professional. She’s the best!

Fantastic experience: We’re currently working with Mandy Montford and superlatives aren’t enough to describe her outstanding performance as our realtor. Mandy’s intelligence, professionalisms and lighting responsiveness is unparalleled. We wholeheartedly recommend her even though we want to keep her for ourselves. Lynn and Rudy ~

Fantastic experience: We have known Mandy Montford for several years through our sons’ sports activities and always enjoyed our relationship. Mandy is a kind hearted and honest person. Once we made the decision to sell our home, we called Mandy right away. She explained the process of what we should think of in selling our home, what to do to prepare our home and all the steps involved once the house went on the market. Our home sold in two days and it was the smoothest process and Mandy was with us every step of the way! Thank you Mandy for answering our questions and helping us with this transition from our home of 24 years in Crystal Lake to downsizing to a new home in Arizona! You’re the best!

Fantastic experience: Mandy is the premier agent with her knowledge of Crystal Lake and Lakewood. She secured us an offer $25,000 over asking with an appraisal and helped us at the closing when the buyers were trying to get last minute money. She secured our dream home for $30,000 under ask and helped with every detail along the way! We highly recommend her!

Fantastic experience: Working with Mandy on the sell of our Crystal Lake home was such a great experience. We were moving out of state and Mandy provided us with all the help and guidance we needed. She advised us on things we should do within the home prior to selling and it really paid off!! In one weekend we had multiple offers and offers over asking price!

Fantastic experience: Mandy was great to work with and clearly knows the market very well in the area we were selling. We were able to get quite a bit of interest premarket, and actually got two offers over asking price before it was even publicly listed. Overall, we are very happy with the work that she did for us and I would highly recommend her!

Fantastic experience: Mandy provided a great experience when selling our home. She met us with confidence in what she does and a down to earth approach. Mandy was quick to respond to any question, big or small.

Her strategy worked beyond our expectations and far surpassed our expected profit. Mandy was always available for a phone call and constantly communicated every move. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a stress free experience! Thanks Mandy.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I were first-time homebuyers and needed a lot of extra help throughout our home search and closing. We met with several possible realtors, but Mandy was our top pick. There are many reasons why we chose Mandy as our realtor, but here are a few: -She quickly understood and became aligned with our goals. -She has lived in McHenry County for a long time and deeply understands the area and various neighborhoods. -She has a vast network of lenders, inspectors, lawyers, and contractors who all are excellent. -She is a strong negotiator and willing to go to bat for her buyers -She is responsive and supportive to her clients at all times. We started off the home buying process with a lot of doubt and worry. But Mandy made sure we were prepared well before we even toured our first home. We managed to find and close on a home we both love within 2-3 months. We could try and say that our process went so smoothly solely because of the hard work we put in, but that wouldn’t be the truth. The fact is, Mandy was a big reason why we had a successful home search. She effectively guided us through our must-haves, budgeting, home tours, offers, inspections, closing, and everything in between. Any questions that popped up along the way Mandy answered or found someone who could. She was a great advocate for us and went the extra mile to make sure we were confident in our new home. Please don’t look elsewhere for your next realtor. We will be using Mandy if we have a future move and will be recommending her to any friends and family in the area!

Fantastic experience: Mandy is that one Realtor that has EVERY quality a homeowner/future homeowner would look for in a Realtor...A great human, a true professional, excellent home staging talent, lifelong local market experience AND delivers the highest quality care for her clients. Hire Mandy and you'll be happy you did!

Fantastic experience: Mandy is amazing. She is dedicated, professional, and responds quickly to any and all inquiries. She is exceptionally well versed in all aspects of real estate, from listing homes to financial and legal responsibilities. She is a trustworthy person that gets the job done with ease.

Fantastic experience: Mandy’s expertise and professionalism guided us through the sale of our home and the purchase of another home. Her negotiation skills and no nonsense approach was extremely helpful throughout the typically stressful buying and selling process.

Fantastic experience: We are so glad we chose Mandy! This was a big decision to sell our family home and move out of state. She helped us every step of the way, answered every question and offered advice and suggestions! She is the one you need on your team. She made it a walk in the park and we couldn’t be happier!

Fantastic experience: This was my second time working with Mandy--once as the home seller, and this time as a buyer. If you are looking for someone who is knowledgeable, conscientious, and genuinely interested in helping you find the right home, then Mandy Montford is your agent. I had some very specific requests for a home, and with Mandy's insight and patience, I found just the right place. She was always quick to reply to questions and follow up with details at every step. She is very professional and also personable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Fantastic experience: We were so fortunate to have Mandy as our agent, for both the sale of a home and the purchase of another. Wow! What a great realtor (and more importantly, a great person) to work with. Selling a large home was such an overwhelming, daunting task - we didn’t know where and how to begin the “decluttering” process. We needed a swift kick in the butt to start the process. As we stood scratching our heads, Mandy arrived one morning in her work clothes to get us going. And I mean literally, working right along side of us. She made sure the sale, the purchase, the inspections, the closings, etc. all happened in a timely manner. And more importantly, she communicated everything with us. As frustrating and confusing as this buying/selling process can be, Mandy is thorough, knowledgeable and professional and we would highly recommend her as your agent. You won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: We absolutely recommend Mandy! As first time home buyers, she made us feel so cared for. She answered every single one of our questions and took the extra time to make sure we understood all of our options at all times. She had our best interest at heart 100% of the time. Mandy made us feel like family. She was so prompt and easy to contact. We will be sending all of our friends and family her way!

Fantastic experience: Grateful for all her help!

Fantastic experience: Mandy made the process selling our home so easy. Her photographer took fantastic pictures and Mandy's description of the home, yard, and area made it sell quickly! Great Experience all the way.

Fantastic experience: As an appraiser for 37 years I had to add a few comments on Mandy since all my dealings with her have been extremely helpful and positive and should not go unrewarded. I was impressed on how well prepared she is concerning appraisal matters making my job a lot easier. Wow, she knows her markets, especially the northwest suburbs which begins with the Crystal Lake area. As an appraiser I rely on those who have their fingers on the pulse. Mandy has done her homework and is the first person I think of when I have any real estate market questions.

Fantastic experience: Mandy is the hardest working, sharpest real estate agent you're going to find. She is strategic at every turn, and fought for every dollar for my husband and I in the sale of our beloved Crystal Lake home. Mandy is extremely honest, and did not 'sugar coat' things just to try to get our listing. Her pricing research was thorough (it was clear she spent a lot of time on this), and her marketing strategy was 'spot on,' with plenty of social media and online outreach. She brought us a large pool of buyers, and she helped us sift through offers based upon the buyers' qualifications to ensure we chose the right offer. The entire transaction was seamless, start to finish. You cannot go wrong if you work with Mandy Montford on your real estate journey!

Fantastic experience: Mandy expertly navigated a fierce real estate market to land us our dream home! What’s more, she got us our new digs at a reasonable price. Always accessible and knowledgeable, I cannot recommend Mandy enough. If you’re serious about your house hunt, Mandy is the way to go. Added bonus: she knows a lot about home features and construction, which proved invaluable during our search. She also had extensive knowledge of the neighborhoods we included in our hunt. Thanks, Mandy! You’re a lifesaver.

Fantastic experience: Mandy was so helpful in selling our house! She was always available to us with all our questions! She helped stage our house for pictures and showing, she made it look great. We were lucky to have found her and highly recommend her for selling or buying a home!

Fantastic experience: So great! Mandy helped us stage, position and sell our house within the first weekend of putting it on the market and at the price we wanted! And then walked us through all the follow up with professionalism and great insight. What a relief to be done. I'm telling all my friends about her!!!!

Fantastic experience: Mandy is perfectly professional and personable. She seemed to know exactly what kind of neighborhood we would want for our family and was so helpful in deciding which homes to see and which ones to pass on. We could have wasted a lot of time if it wasn't for the speedy and thorough work she did for us! She only had about 3 days to find us a home, and we found our dream home. Once we started the process of purchasing & inspections, she never made us wait long...just a quick text or call away! Thanks sooooo much, Mandy!

Fantastic experience: Mandy was a joy to work with in selling our home. She was very responsive and knowledgeable throughout the process. She knows Crystal Lake and is a real estate professional in so many ways. It was hard to leave our dream home to move out of state but she made the sale of our house easier. We highly recommend Mandy.

Fantastic experience: Mandy was recommended to us by several family friends to help sell our first home. From the very first moment we met her, we knew she was the perfect fit. She is extremely knowledgeable, hardworking, genuine, and warm. We had some bad luck throughout the process, and we honestly could not have navigated this experience without her. She was so responsive and her positive attitude and sense of humor were a gift. She not only was our agent, but she became our friend, and if we hadn't moved three hours away, we would have used her to buy a new house. I cannot say enough how much we adore this human. She not only is wonderful at her job, but she is an all around great person and anyone would be lucky to work with her. Thanks for everything, Mandy! We appreciate all you did for us more than you know.

Fantastic experience: Kudos to Mandy for an outstanding experience with our home sale prep, listing recommendations, and support through the closing process. We were returning "customers" after having had a great experience with Mandy on the sale of another local property. Our Lakewood home generated multiple competing offers and we successfully closed on the sale as our new-build was being completed.

Fantastic experience: Mandy is the forever real estate agent for our family! She worked with us to not only sell our current home, but to also find our dream home. Her knowledge of the Crystal Lake/Lakewood area was extremely helpful and exactly what we needed to find the perfect neighborhood. Mandy was so very supportive and patient, and made sure we found our dream house that checked all of our boxes. She even worked her magic to help us get an excellent price on the purchase of our new home. We are so very thankful to have worked with Mandy and look forward to seeing her around the Crystal Lake area!

Fantastic experience: Mandy Mondtford is a quintessential professional. My father was a very successful realtor. And, in my mind, no realtor could touch my dad. But, Mandy was as good if not better! She is intelligent, a creative problem solver, honest, integral, well studied and informed and resourceful. Mandy is the full package and sold our home in two days! She gave her very best - all the time.

Fantastic experience: Consider yourself lucky if you use Mandy Montford as your realtor. My husband and I used Mandy to sell our home in Crystal Lake. This was the fourth house we have sold, in four different states, so we have experience working with realtors. We interviewed Mandy approximately 18 months prior to the sale and we knew immediately that she was the right one. During the 18 months prior to the listing she stayed in touch by occasionally checking in to see how we were doing and if there was anything we needed from her. We discussed ahead of time the things we were considering to make the house more marketable. During this process, all of Mandy’s input was very thoughtfully considered and she was always respectful. She is very knowledgeable about the market in this area so we listened to her ideas, and she too took into consideration our input and ideas. The end result was a great success and we couldn’t have been happier! If you want a realtor who knows the market, understands the real estate business from top to bottom, communicates effectively and timely, treats you with the utmost respect and can not only get it done, but get it done well….then look no further than Mandy.

Fantastic experience: We had an absolutely stellar experience using Mandy Montford as our real estate agent when selling our home. Mandy is very knowledgeable about the real estate market, process and procedures but even more important she has a strong work ethic and a communication style that puts her clients first. She was always available for questions or concerns even when on vacation. I am a "fretter" and Mandy was considerate and patient. Mandy has an excellent eye for making a home as appealing as possible. Because she knows Crystal Lake and the surrounding areas so well, she has that broad understanding that makes her a very strong agent. We would highly recommend Mandy and would use her again. She is ethical, knowledgeable, a strong communicator and someone you can truly depend upon throughout the entire process. We felt fortunate to have her as our realtor.

Fantastic experience: Mandy was instrumental in finding our new home as well as marketing and selling our current home. She is one in a million!

Fantastic experience: Mandy is amazing!!!! My husband and I just closed on our first home. We were living out of state which I thought would complicate things, but Mandy made the entire experience wonderful! We only had a couple open weekends to come look at houses and she made herself available for the entire weekend to make it worth the trip. She has a great eye for little details and pointed out things we would have missed. Mandy gave great advice when looking at houses and when we were ready to put in an offer. Throughout this process we had a ton of questions and she would respond quickly to phone calls, emails, and texts. We are very thankful that Mandy helped us buy our first home! She’s awesome and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor!

Fantastic experience: Mandy is the best! I worked with her for both buying and selling. She made the process so easy and was always available for questions and concerns. She was available to get right into homes for showings in a market where homes are selling fast. She took the stress off of me. You can't go wrong working with her!

Fantastic experience: My Husband & I just closed on our first home and thanks to Mandy the process was so smooth. It was such a pleasure to work with her as she is very knowledgeable, well connected, and responsive. I would and will definitely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home!

Fantastic experience: My husband and I were fortunate to work with Mandy in purchasing our first home! On top of navigating our search during the pandemic, we were also moving back to IL from out of state. We reached out to Mandy with very short notice and she coordinated a full day of tours for us within 24 hours time. We found our dream home the same weekend and even though she was out of state on vacation we didn’t miss a beat and our offer was accepted! We can’t emphasize enough how honest, responsive, and reliable Mandy was throughout the entire process. We highly recommend her for all of your Real Estate needs!

Fantastic experience: My wife and I had the good fortune of working with Mandy both on the sell side and buy side. In both of our experiences she exceeded our expectations. We listed our house with her in the spring of 2020 and the process flowed so smoothly that it was the best experience I had in real estate. Mandy was really efficient at moving through all the steps necessary to get it on the market. She produced best in class marketing materials (which honestly made us want to buy our house again!) and hit all the right sales channels (digital and traditional), so we were having showings in no time. I was impressed with how she took ownership of the sales process and managed it so aptly. It was like she was many steps ahead of us and when we thought of something, she had already taken care of it. I found that her broad experience, knowledge of the market and attention to detail quickly build my trust in her. Another interesting part of our experience with Mandy was that we always felt like we were her only clients. She always had time for us, always replied promptly and this made the whole process a breeze. Moreover, she was always very helpful and a couple of times stopped by our house to turn on lights before a showing when we were out of town. Selling a house is a big deal and usually involves large sums. I've traditionally been very involved in the process to make sure I got the best deal possible. With Mandy, quickly noticed we had someone so good at what they do, that I could relax and focus on the other things (like moving). She helped us get a great deal and navigate a complex situation with multiple bids. In the end I couldn't be happier with the results. I would definitely use Mandy a 3rd and 4th and 5th time!

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough positive things about our experience working with Mandy Montford. Throughout our entire sale and purchasing process, she and her team made everything seamless. Mandy was very prompt in responding and extremely thorough in all areas. She is truly the standard for real estate agents and we will be recommending her to everyone we know.

Fantastic experience: Mandy Montford was an absolute dream to work with! As first time home buyers we had countless questions and concerns but she walked us through everything and made the process so much more comfortable. Even during a pandemic Mandy was able to get us into our perfect first home! We could not have asked for a more knowledgeable and caring professional to help us through this journey.

Fantastic experience: Mandy helped my wife and I sell our house in the middle of this Covid pandemic which obviously created more than a few new challenges during the experience. She was super knowledgeable about staging and the selling process and also helped us find and close on our dream home. I highly recommend Mandy for your selling and buying needs!

Fantastic experience: We met with Mandy before we listed the house for feedback on the best options to make the house marketable. Mandy's feedback for updating specific things like light fixtures and appliances helped sell our home in a week during Covid. She also was helpful with staging ideas as well. Mandy is honest, personable, and was always quick to answer questions throughout the selling process. We highly recommend Mandy Montford for any real estate needs!

Fantastic experience: Mandy is a knowledgeable, top notch, professional realtor. She invested a lot of time advising on this rehab project and it paid off. Mandy is "the one."

Fantastic experience: Mandy knows the Crystal Lake market very well. She is always very professional, responsive, and provides guidance to make the process easy. I’ve worked with Mandy buying and selling a home, and she has always gone above and beyond!

Fantastic experience: We've sold homes before, but not during a pandemic! We were not sure what would happen. Luckily, we had Mandy. She gave us staging advice to maximize the house's appeal to buyers, stayed positive and communicated with us on a regular basis. She was very easy to work with. We appreciated her honest opinions on questions we had about the house, etc. She was extremely knowledgeable about the market in our area. The house was priced to sell and it did. Thank you Mandy!

Fantastic experience: We recently sold our home this summer. It was a very daunting prospect for us, and quite honestly, we expected our home to take a bit of time to sell given the history of other homes in our area and price range. Much to our surprise, our home sold within the first week of listing it! We credit all of this to Mandy! She worked with us before the listing to give us valuable advice on how to prepare our home for selling. Most importantly, through her expertise, we feel our home was priced exactly where it should have been for the market. Not too high or low, and this was invaluable for our home not “sitting “ on the market for months! Through every step of the way, Mandy was calm, thorough, professional, and extremely quick to respond to any text, email, or questions we had.....which some days were many!!! Her wonderful, kind demeanor helped a very stressful time for us go much better than we expected! And we credit her with helping us move on to the next phase of our lives!!

Fantastic experience: Working with Mandy was awesome! She was right there every step of the way with us! From always being available and so quick to respond to our questions and scheduling showings to recommendations for handy men we knew we could always count on her. She is so knowledgeable, honest and fun to work with. I could go on forever about how lucky we feel to have had her working with us!!! She is truly the best!!

Fantastic experience: Mandy helped me purchase my first home and I honestly could not have asked for a better or smoother experience. As someone who was completely new to the entire home-buying process, Mandy was able to help me at every step of the way. From viewing homes, to making an offer and negotiating, to navigating the closing process -- she was always very knowledgeable and quick to respond. She also has a broad range of contacts to help you if you need them. I worked with a home inspector and an attorney recommended by Mandy and they were both excellent as well. I would not hesitate for a second to work with her again!
