Nothing But The FAQs!

How do I schedule a consultation?

Give us a call at 800-495-1120 or you can submit your contact information at www.prestorealestate.com. 

How are you different from a moving company?

We bundle everything together – pack, move and settle. We manage the mover so you don’t have to. You will receive one invoice that will include the mover costs. Please click on Moving Services in the menu for more information.

How are you different from other real estate companies?

We are known for our real estate, but it’s our services that set us apart. Unlike most real estate companies, we will facilitate your transition from start to finish. Please click Our Services for more information.

What if I already have a Realtor®?

It’s not a problem. We would be happy to help you with your pack, move and settle. Additional services are offered only to our real estate clients.

How much will it cost?

There is no way of knowing how much it will cost until we have an opportunity to see the scope of work. One of our Move Coordinators will be happy to come to your home and will be able to provide you with a quote quickly. That quote will include packing, materials, moving, and settling your belongings into your new home.

There are many factors that play into the price of a pack, move and settle – the number of treasures someone has to the distance that the movers will need to travel to load the truck. We take the time to review your needs so that our estimate is reliable and we do our very best to stick to that estimate so there are no surprises.

What does it mean to settle?

We unpack your boxes, put all of your belongings away, and remove all packing materials from the space. That means your bed will be made and all clothes will be put into drawers and closets. If there are boxes that cannot be unpacked, they will be stored in the safest place possible, allowing ease of movement through the home. Our goal is to create a comfortable and familiar environment by the time we leave.

Where do you donate items?

We choose local charitable organizations that will take the items that need to be donated. Our goal is to donate everything we can.

Do you handle out-of-state moves?

Yes! We have partners all across the country and can help facilitate a move in and/or out of state. We can also help with home sales in other states.

Are you insured?

Our company and all of our partners are fully insured.

Do you have any references from previous clients?

Yes! There are many testimonials from our clients on our website.

If you’re a one-stop-shop, why do you have two names?

Although our company operates under two names, we are one big team! Affiliating our real estate brokerage with Weichert Realtors® allows us to provide our clients with state-of-the art technology and marketing tools so that your listing receives the best exposure in and beyond your local real estate market. Our Presto Services team and your Weichert Realtor® will work seamlessly together towards the same goal – to provide you with a stress-free move and home sale.

How do I thank you for sending Tim to me on a Saturday morning?

He is WONDERFUL. And so are you. I knew you were instrumental in “squeezing” us into your schedule last weekend. We are so grateful. Tim and his crew were finished in about 2 hours. And as always so protective of Mom’s things. Even though her stay at the Landing’s was short…you and your team made it very easy to set up her lovely apartment. We are most grateful to you.

Now that our move is over and we are settled in our new environment, now is the time to say, THANK YOU.

Thank you to you and your wonderful crew of really, really nice people. You all made the move easy and uncomplicated. After hearing some horror stories about moves made by some friends, I was somewhat nervous about our move. Thank goodness you and your company were recommended to us. Everything you said was true. You said your crew would take care of everything, they did. You said we would not have to do anything, we didn’t. You said we could move before the house was put up for sale, we did, you then sold our home as soon as we moved. You said the the sale and closing would be handled by you, it was. We did not have to worry about anything, everything you said was true and it was the easiest move we ever expected. Thank you again for making a very emotional situation especially easy. Thank you for being there ever time I had a question or a concern. You have a wonderful quality of making a big emotional scene become as calm as a baby sleeping. Thank you for doing everything exactly as you said you would. It has been a pleasure doing business with you. Thanks again.

Presto Real Estate and Relocation Services provided excellent customer service and hassle free support.

Their “one stop shopping” business model was exactly what I needed for my parents to move from their house to a retirement community. Presto’s experience guided them to choose the essentials to bring with, then packed, moved and set-up their belongings in their new home. A total hands off experience for me and my parents! Then Presto took over the sale of their home. They scheduled contractors to prepare the home for the market to provide the important curb appeal and fresh look, in addition to making necessary repairs to critical infrastructure. Presto also cleared out the house and provided a lawyer for the closing process! This relieved the burden from me to arrange and follow up on these tasks. I am completely satisfied and highly recommend Presto Real Estate and Relocation Services for your next move!

I highly recommend Lisa Stover and Presto Real Estate.

They helped my elderly parents clean out and sell their house quickly and easily. The fact that they were a “one stop shop” helped tremendously! So professional and caring! An only child’s dream come true!

Joanne Rancich was very resourceful and helpful.

She was committed to finding a property with features that matched all my needs and expectations. I would recommend her to anyone. Joanne Rancich is everything a person wants when buying or selling real estate. She knows the business side of the transaction but is interested in the process on a personable level. I felt that Joanne always had my best interests in mind and that I could ask her any question about a property or the real estate transaction process.

Maria was so helpful and responsive during the whole process.

She was especially kind with my parents who were faced with the challenge of consolidating 40 years of living in a nine room house to select items to fit in a four room apartment. Her floorplan suggestions were especially helpful and allowed us to plan what would fit in the new space. During the move, the team was efficient yet careful during packing and unpacking. I highly recommend Presto!

I would like to acknowledge my satisfaction and express what a sincere pleasure it was to work with Lisa Stover for the sale of my home.

Lisa provided me with accurate and timely information and kept me informed of the details, both the good and the bad so I knew exactly where we were at from marketing, to price negotiations through the closing. This was anything but an “easy” sale, Lisa worked hard and professionally, putting in long hours and creating a solution to satisfy my, the buyers and the lender’s needs. When I felt like giving up, Lisa dedicated herself to find a way to keep me engaged and make this sale happen. She has an optimistic approach to her work and I now believe, that approach and Lisa’s hard work is the only reason my house sold. I would highly recommend Lisa Stover as a highly professional, diligent and knowledgeable real estate agent.

Presto Real Estate was the perfect choice when my dad decided to sell his home (after 50 years) and move to assisted living.

I knew we would need a lot of help since I live 250 miles from my father and Presto made it easy for both of us. They took the time to get to know both me and my dad and then she got to work! She skillfully handled the clean out, moving, set up my dad’s apartment and helped us get the house updated for a buyer in two weeks’ time. All the agents expertise impressed us as we worked diligently to market my dad’s house and were kept updated on all showings and feedback. When we found our buyer, they followed through with attention to details that helped us secure an early closing. I definitely recommend Presto Real Estate.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your excellent representation in the sale of our Naperville home.

From the 1st day we met to discuss offering our home for sale, you were honest and straightforward with your approach and “plan of action” to sell our home at a fair-to-market price with the highest possible selling price as the goal. During the nearly 6 months of our home on sale you continued to keep us informed on the overall market and how it related to our home, in the constantly changing mix. You kept us encouraged by reminding us that the right buyer would eventually appear and fall in love with our home and make us that fair offer to buy. And when we did receive that buyers’ offer, you handled all of the details necessary with professionalism right up to the closing of the sales transaction. We want to thank you again for a excellent job representing us in the sale of our home.

Presto was very efficient and quick with helping us move my parents to a senior living facility.

Their assistance was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend their services.
