“We were living in Logan Square and had begun the process of building our family, so we began looking for houses in the La Grange/Western Springs area.
After looking for a while, our realtor found a house that was still being built — the siding was up and the house was framed out, but the inside was totally raw. There was a lot of potential there and we loved the location and the block.
We met with Brian and he spent two hours taking us around the house, explaining the important investments OPPO had made in the structure, like the drain tiles and the dissipation system—things we never would’ve known to look for. He was so personally invested in the project and cared so much about the work—it said a lot about Brian, about OPPO, and about the project as a whole.
We came back a week later and asked what it would look like to move forward. Brian explained that once we had a contract in place, we could partner together to customize the home exactly the way we wanted it, from molding and trim to paint colors and floor stain.
Hearing that, we were in!
Throughout the process, Brian told us exactly what he needed from us, and when we struggled he’d pull in his team to help. He was always there to support us the whole time.
For such an expensive life decision like this, it’s so reassuring to work with people you can trust. We knew OPPO was going to do the job right—and they did. The bones of our house are strong and we trust the work that’s been done to it. We know it’s safe and we feel we’re in a house we can grow into for a long, long time.”
