"Hayley is a fantastic realtor! She is professional, energetic, honest, and VERY knowledgeable about
Chicago real estate. She helped us buy our dream home -- a single-family home in Roscoe Village in
Chicago that was being built as new construction. My husband and I were not the easiest clients. We
were pretty picky and looked for several months before we found "the one." So, Hayley pulled out all
the stops and actually found our home on a "drive-by" -- not from the MLS. She then helped us
negotiate the contract, which is an especially tall order on new construction. Even after we were under
contract on the house, Hayley was a tremendous help to us in picking finishes and finalizing plans for the
construction of the house. It was such a relief having her help us navigate the many steps of a real estate
purchase. I highly recommend hiring Hayley and her team!" - Molly
"Hayley is the consummate real estate professional. She has both a depth of knowledge for
individual Chicago neighborhoods and a breadth of knowledge to cover the whole city. After our first
meeting, Hayley handpicked a number of properties for us to visit - each of which were right in line
with our expectations for our first home. This type of tailored feedback was a great benefit to us and
our busy schedules. Hayley also possesses a keen eye - both in recognizing design flaws / issues
with properties that a novice might not catch and in recognizing when a listed property is overpriced -
which greatly assisted us in narrowing down our search. Once we actually settled on a property,
Hayley led us through a number of comparable properties. She proved invaluable in helping us
tailor our offer - a winning bid in a multiple offer situation where we still signed on the property for
under asking. If you are considering buying a home in Chicago, you can do no better than Hayley
Westhoff - her knowledge of the area and, more importantly, her expertise in getting transactions
across the finish line, are unmatched." - Brett
"Hayley has some of the fiercest negotiation skills I have ever seen (doing justice to every one of her
negotiation credentials). She played it cool in the toughest situations with the sellers playing extreme
hardball and helped us get an insanely good deal for the Lincoln Park area!!
Throughout this process, it was so clear that she cared about our interests and this was not a mere
transaction. In Hayley, we have found a friend and real estate agent for the long-haul. We have been
recommending Hayley to all our friends and colleagues, we firmly believe that they will be in the
BEST HANDS in town." - Sara
"We couldn’t have asked for a better partner during this stressful process. She was incredibly attentive,
approachable, responsive, and fiercely advocated for us. We had an incredibly difficult seller and listing
agent and Hayley handled the situation with such professionalism and expertise, I truly don’t think any
other agent would have been able to get us through that!" - Kevin
"She would ask questions that we would have never thought to ask! There were points in the process
that got stressful and her actions always de-escalated the situation. During the *entire* process, I felt
like Hayley always had our interests in mind as her primary priority. There was one property where
she was able to objectively and tactfully explain why it might not be the best fit for us despite my
initial, emotional excitement for it." - Joyce
"Hayley is amazing! We hired Hayley to help us purchase our home, and she went above & beyond
to get us exactly what we wanted. Hayley's dedication to her clients is evident in every single
interaction that you will have with her. She is extremely thoughtful and very responsive, and she
was able to provide advice in a straightforward, yet tactful manner. Hayley is truly passionate
about what she does, and I would highly recommend her to everyone that I know!" - Leah
Real estate is not a job for Hayley; it’s a passion, an obsession, and a way of life. As an award-winning and “Top 1% Producing Agent”, named by the Chicago Association of Realtors and one of America’s Top 100 (agents) LLC, Hayley is driven by a strong desire to exceed clients’ expectations and deliver results. Her proven results, reputation in the industry, and happy clients are all part of why she was voted “Best (city) Agent of 2021 and 2022” by Better Magazine. Hayley’s philosophy is simple: she sells homes, not houses. A home is much more than just four walls; it is where we raise our children, make memories, laugh, and live as a family. Hayley truly understands that buying and selling a house is one of the most emotional, personal, and biggest financial endeavors one can make in their life, so she is dedicated to acting upon the highest level of integrity and professionalism.
For sellers, Hayley has a proven track record of selling homes at a 100.8% list-to-sales price ratio and in less than half the market time of the average Realtor (according to broker metrics powered by MLS.) Using a winning combination of research-driven analytic approach and an effective and innovative marketing plan coupled with her fierce negotiation skills, Hayley is sure to sell your home for top dollar and in record market time. Her deep market insight and ability to look at her client’s circumstances from a holistic perspective allow Hayley to offer her clients invaluable advice so that they can be fully educated on every facet of the market to make the most informed and best decision. Hayley is an Accredited Staging Professional and provides extensive staging consultation and execution, which gives her sellers a leg up in Chicago’s competitive market. Lastly, she is an off-market specialist who sells close to 30% of her listings before they hit the market.
Hayley sees the buying process more as matchmaking than sales. She really takes the time to get to know her buyer clients on a personal level as well as their circumstances, needs and wants so that she can help them find their perfect dream home. With an extensive remodeling and real estate investment background, she can also help find properties with good investment potential or fixer-uppers while offering remodeling ideas and costs, and she even loves guiding and advising her clients throughout the remodeling and design process. Because of the incredible customer service Hayley provides for her clients, she is one of very few agents who is able to run her business almost entirely from referrals. “Hayley encompasses everything I could ever ask for in a Realtor, we appreciated her candidness, responsiveness, and level of expertise!”
Hayley is a leader and cofounder of the top producing team, The Westhoff Group, which has collectively sold over one-half billion. The Westhoff Group is a one-of-a-kind group that delivers concierge-level service and guaranteed results!
