individualized solutions for all of your real estate needs

Our journey to homeownership came in the form of a blessing from God-he sent Deanna Hodges-Walker into our lives!

She worked hard from day one to make our dream a reality. We absolutely could not have done it on our own. We had been trying for years. Our situation was no easy task. We put our trust in her abilities and she did not let us down.

When one wall went up and many did, Deanna went around, under and eventually over it! Words cannot explain the dedication, time and effort she put in to help us.

She was readily accessible by phone, fax, and email or in person days or evenings, including weekends! She is truly a professional, reliable and knowledgeable real estate broker that can meet the needs of her clients. She had an A-List of professionals to to assist us through the process. She was not just or agent but our friend!!

I met Deanna Hodges-Walker roughly 2 years ago. She was hosting an open house at a property I immediately fell in love with! This property, it had everything I was looking for. Deanna immediately went into action to help me purchasing my new home. Getting me pre-approved turned out to be a huge problem because of the residue of my pending divorce… Knowing how much I wanted this property Deanna negotiated a lease with option between the developer and myself. While in my lease she helped my clean up my credit, obtain pre-approval for purchase and get my building FHA approved to meet my financing approval… Once my divorce became final because of Deanna’s support and hard work, I was able to close. From leasing to purchase I have been living in my home for 2 years and I could not have done it without Deanna. Thank you again for everything.

Deanna was a pleasure to work with when I was looking to purchase my first property. My husband and I were looking to purchase an owner occupied investment property. We looked at several properties over several months and through it all Deanna remained professional. She was very through with communication to our attorney and lender; she was on top of everything that needed to happen to close our deal. Deanna does outstanding work and I would recommend her to anyone…

Deanna has been instrumental in the leasing & sales of many of my developments throughout Chicagoland… She more than just an agent, she is someone who will go the extra mile not for the business but the relationship… She has been a liaison in obtaining FHA building approvals for new and existing construction and a tenant advocate with building associations, community leaders and financial lenders… I love working with Deanna, the work she does is truly Full Circle.

Thank you for helping me to find my house! You are definitely a professional who knows “the Real Estate business.” My situation was not a ‘picture perfect credit score’ but that didn’t matter to you. You were CONFIDENT you could help me nevertheless to purchase a house. You kept me abreast of the homebuyer’s steps and you were thorough about looking into all benefits which I would qualify for as a first time home buyer.

It was amazing to see how you knew about the community events, the temperament of each community and the ranking of the school systems for each zip code areas where there was real estate for sale. Your professional connections and communication networks were so diverse which was a definite sign of a knowledgeable, well-rounded respected business woman.

Not only did you help me to purchase exactly, the type of house I wanted and in the price range, neighborhood, and next to a transportation line and near-by school; you also helped me to purchase a historical land mark brick bungalow! I feel like I hit the jack pot! Thank you for going that extra mile for your clients. You are sincerely dedicated and care about the best interest of your clients; and it shows in the end results of your client’s purchase of their desired real estate.

Let me begin by saying Whew! Purchasing a home as a single woman was not an easy walk in the park; It was stressful to be exact! I was ready to throw in the towel many days but when I tell you that God favors me and I know this because he aligned me with the Full Circle Realty team. Let me explain.... I went from not having enough for the home of my dreams, to squatters taking over what I could afford, to homeless living out of hotels, to giving up, to now I am a happy home owner.. The team at Full Circle Realty became family. They are so invested in the "whole client", meaning that they were understanding, patient, solution oriented, and they cared about my mental health. The experience for me was a spiritual one. I know that may sound weird but the support and love given throughout my process of searching for the right home became a spiritual journey for me and without this team, I would've broken and probably be renting again. Deanna is definitely a chameleon that is well connected and she was able to solve every hurdle that got in the way lol, literally. She made sure that I overstood every step in the buying process. I have been in my home since October 2020 and I still count on her to help me solve my home problems and she always answers. During my process, she went to bat for me every step of the way and did not let anyone get over on me. She explained all technicalities thoroughly and that was highly appreciated because it left me with no doubt. Deanna went above and beyond to meet my needs as a difficult client, all while keeping a smile on her face. I highly recommend Full Circle Realty and will be working with them again to sell this home and relocate me in the near future.

Deanna and her team are outstanding. As an out-of-state landlord on the East Coast, I feel 100% confident in their ability to manage my properties. Her team is responsive, efficient, ethical and cares about her client's
bottom line. Not only do they have expertise in Chicago property management including Section 8 tenants, but also they have impressive all-around realty services. Full Circle really focuses on getting to know their tenants and meeting their needs. I have had other property managers but none were as professional/communicative/caring as Full Circle. Thank you Deanna and your team!

Deanna and her team are nothing short of excellent!! I own a few multi family properties and they have been a huge help. Not only are they able to secure tenants for our properties, their proactive approach and due diligence
in screening tenants has resulted in long tenured tenants for us. We’re super happy we chose Full Circle Realty to assist us! Thank you Deanne and Sherale for all your hard work 😀
