Testimonials


It all began Jan. 13, 1989 and it ended almost exactly 15 years later on Jan. 20, 2006. Well, actually it began the summer of 1989 when we were looking for a house on a lake and picked up one of those free real estate guides. In thumbing through it, we spotted a picture of a young agent who seemed to have a lot of listings in the area we were interested in. There was something about the photo that evoked trust, so we contacted her. She helped us find our house on the lake and later, two rental houses. During the course of these purchases, we realized we had much in common and we became friends. Little did we suspect we would soon be relocated to Ohio and would have to leave behind 3 rental properties. Over the years, whenever we had questions, she was there to answer them. Eventually, we sold all 3 houses (+ my mother-in-law's home) all long distance. We knew she would handle any problems that came up and would get us the best brice in the fastest time possible. Not once were we concerned, because we trusted her.

Once you work with Cookie, you realize why she is a top selling agent in her area. She has abundant knowledge & is a tireless agent who is never flustered and has a great personality. She is THE definition of "PROFESSIONAL."

It has been a privilege and joy to have worked with her all these years. It's been an honor and a blessing to call her Friend.

The Barbalace's



"Thank you both so much for all your hard work. You put the "real" in real estate. You make a great team and I will refer you both highly. Working with you recently was a wonderful experience, the best we've ever had with a realtor. We were house hunting for my God child and the second house we saw had a Remax sign with Cookie Lamb's name. She got us in to see the house, which resulted in a sale. Upon meeting Ms. Lamb, I was so impressed by the way she handled the sale of this house, that I was sure that she and Melissa would find a home for my daughter. As we looked at a couple of condos, one of which she liked, she became scared and unsure whether to put in an offer. We spoke with Melissa and Cookie and they invited us to the Remax office in Crystal Lake. We met in the conference room and Melissa and Cookie sat with us for well over an hour crunching numbers. The end result was Cookie and Melissa advised my daughter if she wanted to, she could certainly put in a bid, but in their opinions, she would be better off waiting a little longer so that she could save a cushion in the bank to fall back on. When we returned to our car, Dean, Patti and I were talking and were all amazed at the way Cookie and Melissa took their time and both were HONESTLY concerned for my daughter's welfare. We have since given my daughter a cushion and will continue to look. We wanted to tell you both that you showed us a rare quality of TRUE PROFESSIONALISM and UNSURPASSED CUSTOMER SERVICE, a package that is truely an asset to the Remax name."

Laura Pratt



"Thank you so much for everything. You have made our move so much easier! We were so lucky to have you for our real estate agent.
The vase you gave us looks so beautiful on our dining room table. I filled it with various colors of silk flowers that watch the colors in our room. It was so sweet of you to give us it.
As soon as we get more settled you'll have to come over to see how the house looks.
Thanks again!"

The Zach's



"You will never know how much the card and the Crystal Lake vase mean to us. It has to be one of the nicest gifts we have ever received. It will have a special place in our new home and you will always have a special place in our hearts.
Thank you again."
