Chris was extremely accommodating and answered all of our questions quickly - even outside of typical business hours. He told us what to expect at every step of the selling process so we were never unprepared.

He told us what to expect at every step of the selling process so we were never unprepared. His success is not a fluke as you can see his professionalism, drive, and desire to continue growing in everything he does. He has a mind like a steel trap and he adds personal touches along the way. We used Chris to buy and sell our house eight years later. He remembered that only months had passed. I couldn't imagine a better realtor experience. Thanks, Chris.

Before listing our house, we interviewed another realtor. The first realtor pointed to several items that should be addressed (but seemed petty). The first realtor also suggested that we list our house at a lower price. Chris thought our house was marketable with very minor changes at a considerably higher price. We did sell the house at a price Chris suggested. We...Before listing our house, we interviewed another realtor.

We are very pleased with the service and guidance that we received from Chris. Anyone considering property transactions should consider retaining Chris's services.

Chris helped me sell my Okemos home that I owned for 19 years which held a lot of sentimental value for me. Our move to TN happened faster than we expected but with Chris's help, our house ended up with six offers all over the asking price in 2 1/2 days. His strategy is deliberate and based on many years of experience.

Our move to TN happened faster than we expected but with Chris's help, our house ended up with six offers all over the asking price in 2 1/2 days. His strategy is deliberate and based on many years of experience. He does a fantastic job explaining the entire process including well-thought-out options for us as the sellers to evaluate. He never impressed us with a biased decision but because of the well-explained details he provided us, we felt we could make the right well-informed decisions. He is an excellent negotiator and understands well what card to play when. He always responded timely and made sure thorough quality work was done throughout the process. Without hesitation, we would recommend Chris Silker to any buyer or seller in the market!

Chris Silker went above and beyond for our family! He deserves a real estate award! He had to deal with two difficult sisters and representatives in different states, lawyers, friends, neighbors, and many other people. He was always calm and professional; and kept the whole team informed all along the way, by phone, emails, and texts. One sister had to move into a ...Chris Silker went above and beyond for our family! He deserves a real estate award! He had to deal with two difficult sisters and representatives in different states, lawyers, friends, neighbors, and many other people. He was always calm and professional; and kept the whole team informed all along the way, by phone, emails, and texts. One sister had to move into a nursing home, and the house had to be cleared from a hoarding situation. Chris even helped with that! Trying to get everyone signed off and on the same page was a nightmare, but he stuck to it, for over a year! He's very good at negotiating with buyers, even before an offer is submitted. Chris deserves much more than his commission after a year of putting so much time, money, and expertise into this sale. And, we ended up selling only $3,000 under asking, even with quite a few needed repairs. I highly recommend Chris Silker for any real estate needs, an honest, ethical, reliable, hardworking man. And he's a nice guy!

Chris did a fantastic job helping to prepare and sell our rental property. He communicated quickly and had resources to recommend for help with some renovations and repairs needed before the final sale. I would highly recommend Chris and Keller Williams to anyone.
