The brokerage

A brokerage built on straight answers

Founded in 2009, Bluestone started with a simple promise: no pressure, no jargon, no surprises. Seventeen years and 1,200 closings later, that promise still drives everything we do. Our agents live in the neighborhoods they serve, price with real comparable data instead of wishful thinking, and stay reachable long after the keys change hands. Whether it's your first condo or your fifth investment property, you'll always know exactly where your deal stands.

Client reviews

After the closing

We toured eleven places before Bluestone found us an off-market brownstone in Lincoln Park. They negotiated $32k under asking and held our hand through every inspection.
Maya & Daniel Okafor
Sold our condo in nine days, $18k over list. The staging and photos alone were worth it — the pricing strategy is what actually closed it.
Priya Raman
They've managed my three rental units for four years. Rent arrives on the first, problems get fixed before I hear about them. Zero drama.
Tom Kowalski
As first-time buyers we had a hundred questions. Our agent answered every single one without ever making us feel rushed or naive.

FAQ

Fair questions

How much does it cost to work with a buyer's agent?

Nothing out of pocket — our commission on the buy side is paid from the transaction at closing, so you get full representation at no direct cost to you.

How do you decide the right listing price for my home?

We run a comparative market analysis using recent closed sales within your micro-neighborhood, adjust for condition and features, and pressure-test the number against current buyer activity. You'll see the data behind every recommendation.

How long does it take to sell a home in this market?

Well-priced Bluestone listings average 14 days on market. Timing varies by neighborhood and season — we'll give you an honest estimate for your specific property before you list.

Do you work with first-time buyers?

All the time — roughly a third of our clients are first-timers. We'll walk you through financing, inspections, and closing costs step by step, and connect you with trusted lenders if you need one.

What does your property management service include?

Marketing and tenant screening, lease preparation, monthly rent collection, maintenance coordination with vetted contractors, and year-end owner statements. One flat 8% fee, no hidden markups.
