Bridget Carroll

We highly recommend Bridget. We used her to sell our existing town home and to build our new construction home.
We actually met with her a year before listing our townhome as we were trying to feel out the market. She made some suggestions for minor changes we could make and recommended we wait a bit longer to list. Her timing and pricing strategies were on point. When we did list our townhome it sold relatively quickly and easily.
Bridget also helped us navigate the process of building our next home. She added many great suggestions and insights that helped make the process easier and smoother.
Her communication is top notch and she makes herself readily available. We can’t recommend her enough.

We thoroughly recommend Bridget! We were fortunate enough to have met her through a recommendation from one of her previous clients, and after the first appointment, it was obvious why she was rated so highly! She is a total rock star and was able to help us navigate the tricky and terrifying territory of buying our first home. Bridget was always available and quick to respond to any questions we had (and we had plenty, even late at night!), even talking us down at the height of stressful negotiations.
We ended up with a great property. Bridget even went a step further and provided stellar recommendations for an amazing home inspector, contractor, electrician, and more to make sure our new place would be in good hands and ready for us to move in.
She has a wonderful personality and knew how to help us transition from city life to the suburbs. We highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home (especially 1^st time home buyers!) and will be using her in future should we need to sell.
Don’t even think twice, Bridget is fantastic and we would give her 10 stars if possible!

I found Bridget’s group, The Carroll Group, at
and was very pleased with my experience in working with her. Bridget and her team helped me find an incredible condo in the loop with all the specifications I was looking for in a short amount of time. The Carroll Group is currently helping me navigate the buying process in the suburbs, as that is where I will want to move after a year or so.
Her experience and knowledge of the Chicagoland market put me at ease as a new client. I had a lot of questions and appreciated her patience & professionalism. Buying or selling a home is a scary thing and it was important to me to have a dedicated, honest agent backing me up. Bridget was always my advocate and I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Bridget and The Carroll Group!

If you are looking to buy or sell your house, I cannot recommend Bridget enough! She was incredible to work with and so helpful in our search for a new home. With the housing market the way it is today, you really need to find someone who is easy to get in touch with and can show you houses almost immediately. A lot of the homes we liked went under contract after just a day of being on the market, so you have to act fast! Bridget was able to accommodate us any time we needed to get out and see a house. She’d even rearrange things in her busy schedule so we could take a look at something!
Super professional, always on time, and wonderful to work with. Being first time homebuyers, we were totally clueless as to how things worked. She was so helpful, and everyone she recommended to us was great. Thanks so much Bridget for helping us find our first house!

I was in the market to purchase a new place in Chicago had not been happy with the realtors I have used in the past. I started googling realtors in Chicago and stumbled upon Bridget’s name on the @ properities website. I found her reviews on Unilocal then decided to send her an email to see if she was accepting new clients. Within a few hours she returned my email and we set up a time to talk the next day.
I was impressed with Bridget from the beginning. I would never be in the place right now if I didn’t find her during my google searches. After our first call about discussing what I was looking for, we set up a time for our first «meeting» to look at a few places. Bridget is very knowledgeable of the area (I was looking in bucktown/​wicker park). During our first time out, she quickly got a gauge of what I was looking for in a new place. Bridget has a very calm demeanour and never seemed uncomfortable when talking to the other realtors that we met, as much as they tried to sell why the place they were selling was the best on the market! Bridget is very responsive. When I found a place that I was interested in possibly seeing and I asked her about it, she would respond to me within a few hours with more detail about the place. She drove me around to over 30 places (I lost count) from fixer uppers to foreclosures to move in ready places. She helped me analyze the pros and cons of each place and if I should move forward. I learned more about buildings with split block vs brick than I ever wanted to know!
Bridget was also very patient with me — I started looking for a place in November 2011 and finally closed on a place in August 2012. I was very particular, but knew what I was looking for. She was very knowledgeable on the prices and patient when other bids didn’t work out. When I was finally locked into a contract, she has an army of resources at her fingertips. From attorneys, to inspectors to loan officers. I had a small problem at my closing and my loan officer was on vacation that day. She knew exactly who to call so I could close on time. I ended up finding a place in Wicker Park and love it!
When I choose to sell one of my places, I will definitely use her again. If you are a buyer or seller looking for a new realtor — I would highly recommend considering Bridget Carroll!

I worked with Bridget Carroll twice in three years and both experiences exceeded my expectations.
My first experience with Bridget was during my relocation from the West Coast to Chicago, knowing very little about the Chicago housing market. Bridget was quick to ask the right questions and quickly pinpoint what I was looking for and inform me of the most relevant options. After deciding to focus the search on downtown high rise condo buildings, Bridget’s insider knowledge on each building option and the differences of every city block led to the selection of a property that was right on target with my interests. She didn’t hold back when it came to providing her opinion on the pros and cons of every option. And when it came to negotiating the deal — Bridget delivered.
Most recently after deciding to relocate back to California I didn’t think twice about who I would call to list my condo — no one but Bridget. While some realtors are better representing specifically buyers or sellers, Bridget’s well rounded knowledge, team and resources make her top notch for representing either. Again, Bridget delivered. She guided me through selling my condo during a challenging market. Also, having already relocated prior to the closing, Bridget and her team did an amazing job handling the details of the closing process locally for me.
If you are a buyer or seller in the Chicagoland area, I strongly recommend considering Bridget Carroll.

When I think of the word «realtor,» the last person who comes to mind is Bridget Carroll.
My husband and I decided it was time to purchase our first home and we hit upon a sweet bit of serendipity when we were connected to Bridget when calling the @properties main phone line. From the word go Bridget put us at ease; she feels less like someone with whom you’re working on a professional basis and more like a friend. To that extent Bridget re-​defined the word realtor for us; she is not pushy, salesy, lazy, snooty or any of those traits my parents had trained me to believe realtors inherently possess. She does not shove her card in your face at the grocery store or drive a car with her name emblazoned on the side. She is so very… real. She is like your sister, your gal pal, your neighbor. She becomes your friend.
In addition to her affable nature and ability to make folks feel at home (pun intended), Bridget has mad technical skills when it comes to the realty game. Bridget knows how to play the game and plays it with precision. She was never late for a showing, never showed even a hint of flakiness (a huge pet peeve of mine), held our hand through all of the stages of the purchase (each of which was entirely new for us) and recommended vendors (mortgage brokers, attorneys, inspectors) but did not push if we decided to go a different route. Bridget is your advocate during the sale and we were impressed by her strong business ethics and concern for us as more than just one more notch on her belt. She really wanted the right fit for us. We love the home we found together and we continue to refer Bridget to everyone we know. Should we ever have realty needs in the future, Bridget is our girl.
You can choose among thousands of Chicago realtors and get a good deal. With Bridget Carroll, you will be getting a good deal, a crackerjack realtor, and peace of mind that when your deal is signed, you will be coming home.

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, enthusiastic and extremely patient real estate agent in Chicago and Chicagoland area, look no further than Bridget Carroll.
Bridget was extremely thorough in our (my fiancé and I) search for the perfect home in Chicago. She works for you and goes to bat for you.
Bridget is very dependable. I loved that she worked around our schedule, and when she wasn’t there with us personally she was back in the office doing a lot of research on comps, etc. She does a great job reminding you to keep your mind open and let her do her job, which is all the leg work for you! She showed us over 40 condos in the city in a small amount of time. It was a lot to take in for first time homebuyers, but Bridget was so patient and really educated us on the Chicago market. She also showed amazing patience with us!
I loved how Bridget was so involved in every step of the way. She was always offering assistance (I ask A LOT of questions) if we needed it with our lender, attorney, and all the other nitty gritty stuff that goes along with buying a home. She definitely wasn’t there for just a sale. She’s the all around package you would want and expect in a real estate agent.
Bridget also makes the home-​searching process fun! She has a way about herself that makes you feel really comfortable around her, almost as if you knew her your entire life. Also, as the previous reviewer indicated, Bridget has a large network of contacts in the industry (contractors, lenders, attorneys) that she can refer you to who are great. I know this from personal experience. The three contacts she gave me were fabulous.
We ended up buying in Wicker Park and absolutely love our place. Before choosing our home, Bridget took us all around the city (West Loop, South Loop, Bucktown, etc) which really helped us hone in on the place we really wanted. She was very knowledgeable about each neighborhood and unit we looked at.
I will continue to refer Bridget to anyone who is looking to sell or buy a place in the city or chicagol and area.

If you’re looking for a dedicated real estate agent, Bridget is where it’s at.
I cannot say enough good things about her. My husband and I were first time house buyers and it took us more than 13 months to find a house we loved. The commission she received isn’t nearly sufficient to repay her for the number of hours and amount of effort she put in for us during those 13 months. She drove us to countless showings. She held our hand through 4 (yes, 4!) offers. She researched an ungodly number of comps. She literally met us 5 days after having a baby to complete a transaction on the house we just bought. And, very important to us, she obtained an awesome price on a awesome house for us. She’s a great negotiator and on top of her game.
She is incredibly knowledgeable about the market in the areas we were looking — Bucktown, Wicker Park, West Town — but never hesitated to find us additional information if we needed it. She has a network of great people that she referred us to – attorneys, contractors, etc. — and each one performed impeccably. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.
