We had a big move for my family. Moving from Bay area California after living there for nearly 30 years was not going to be easy. And with two kids.
While searching for property in Chicago, I came across a property that got my attention. I called the number near the ad, and I was connected with Ruqia Naqi. From the moment she said hello, sense of calmness came over me. I have to say, Ruqia has been the most professional real estate agent I have ever encountered, and I can easily state this, for reason being I am in advertising and I have worked with many many agents as clients in the past, so with that said I could of just called around and got a referral to work with someone in the area. I am happy I did not and went with my gut feeling on talking to Ruqia Naqi.
Ruqia has been a big help from day one, there was a moment of time that we had a bit of a pause to find the right place, she was with us along the entire way. Ruqia Naqi did not just find us a new house, she found us our new home and community. As you can tell, I can go for hours on how awesome she was to my entire family and the Grade A service that was given by Ruqia, but I don't know if this Testimonial will allow so many characters. Thank you so much Ruqia.

Ruquia is a genuine and an impressive person to of had as our realtor. She first helped us find the perfect rental when we relocated from Florida to Illinois. Over the years she never forgot about us as her clients. When the timing was right and we were ready to buy, Ruquia was ready and on board. She always met our needs and wants and never gave up. Ruquia always gave one hundred and ten percent effort whenever working with us. Our family couldn't be happier.

Two years ago I had planned on buying a house after overcoming a hurdle i.e convincing my husband. This was our first time buying a house, we put all our trust on the agent, things did not work out. We had a bad experience with her. We were so disappointed that we gave up the whole idea of buying a house. Until this friend of mine introduced us to Ruqia Naqi. She re convinced my husband to buy a house and after that there was no turning back. I found her very thorough and professional in her dealings. She walked us through step by step and helped us with everything from finding a broker, a house inspector, an attorney, a professional for renovating the house and what not. We are so happy with the house we bought. It was a pleasure working with her and I would highly recommend her to anybody who wants to buy or sell a house.

Despite having listed our home with another Realtor for less money (with no offers), we raised our price and hired Ruqia to represent our home. Not only did we get an offer higher than our previous listing, our home sold for the highest s/f price in our village and within a few days of listing it again. 'Perhaps' you can say some of that was luck, but considering Ruqia went out of her way to 'manage' certain things like finding a stager and knew the area and market better than any other Realtor, I would say that without Ruqia, we would still be waiting for an offer. BW also showed our home during the prior listing. When we took it off the market, it was funny how other Realtors and companies called to list our home. Why didn't they show it when it was listed before?? That is why we chose BW and Ruqia. They wanted to sell our home!

Our home buying experience could not have been better and all thanks to Ruqia. We feel so fortunate to have worked with her during our move from the east coast to the Chicago suburbs. Not knowing the area at all, we were fortunate to have Ruqia’s knowledge and experience. Having done international and cross country moves herself, she was incredibly understanding of what we needed to make it a smooth transition. She patiently showed us our extensive list of homes in various neighborhoods and truly went above and beyond what we expected from a realtor- from having umbrellas ready for us on rainy days to working on our behalf around the clock. Her background in finance was extremely useful in negotiating and seeing our purchase through to completion. Ruqia’s professionalism and work ethic far exceeded our expectations and made what could have been a stressful process an enjoyable one. We highly recommend her!

All were very supportive very cooperative and very helpful. Ruqia was always on time for every appointment. I've hardly seen any agent so perfect in everything. May you succeed more!

Hands down one of the best realtors I have had the pleasure of working with! In this industry there is a lot of stressful moments and it is up to us to keep everyone calm while still protecting and representing out own client to the highest standards. I felt that Ruqia did this every step of the way, she is truly one of a kind and I hope to do more deal with you soon. We both communicated with each other every step of the way and in the end both the seller and buyer were very happy! Thank you!

Ruqia was an amazing helper and provided us with guidance while acquiring our dream house.
She was detail oriented and understood what we wanted. Handpicked the best houses for us to view. She was very patient and always available to answer our queries. Being first time buyers we were quiet nervous, Ruqia sat with us and explained the entire process from viewing a place to finalizing the deal.

It was an absolute pleasure having Ruqia as our realtor. She was very professional kept my wife and I in the loop throughout the whole process from start to finish. As a first time home buyer I got to learn so much about the market, closing and all the tips that no one teaches you! We highly recommend Ruqia to anyone who is the market for purchasing a home.

Ruqia was nothing short of amazing! We sold our house in less than a day!
She always puts the client first! As an example, she recommended we change our house’s asking price and increase it by another $10,000 only two days before the listing went live. She did another analysis and was confident it would sell at that price, and it DID!!! We got the listed asking price!
Ruqia is also extremely patient and thorough and went through the entire process in great detail every step of the way. She was always a phone call away to answer our countless queries- even some very late at night!
It’s also crucial to point out that we went through this whole process during the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, and everything was already very stressful. Even then, we had no hiccups, and Ruqia ensured everything goes smoothly.
Ruqia also helped us find our "dream home." When we mentioned to her we wanted to do more upgrades, she went out of her way to hook us up with multiple contractors, painters, plumbers, etc. so that we had everyone lined up to start working on our closing day.
Through this process, she’s become more than a real estate agent for us. We consider her to be a close friend who doesn’t hesitate to tell you the good, bad, and ugly truths straight.
If you are looking for someone who lives, breathes, and LOVES their job and goes above and beyond, you need to call Ruqia without any hesitation! We highly recommend her!

Ruquia was absolutely wonderful throughout the process of both selling our existing home and buying our new one. As somewhat of a control freak I know I probably drove her a bit nuts with my constant questions and concerns but through it all she showed the patience of a saint constantly reassuring us that all would work out in the end and it did. We are thrilled with our new home.
I would highly recommend Ruquia as she always answers our call and picks up the phone to keep us informed as to the progress of the transaction as well as calling us to wish us well on birthdays, holidays etc. and our relationship grew beyond business as we consider her part of our family.
She is highly knowledgeable and all of her contacts are of the highest calibre.
Use her with confidence
