“I have worked for Basel for the past 10 years and it has been everything I had hoped for and more! The office environment is positive, inspiring and beautiful. Basel has a vision for our office that is unlike anything in the real estate industry. We are able to provide clients, with mortgage, attorneys and a home design center where they can shop for anything from carpet to plumbing fixtures. Basel is an amazing business man and a wonderful human being.”
“Basel is a hard working, leadership driven business executive. He has built an office that is progressive and service oriented. He leads by example and he helps each of his Associates to grow and become more successful. Just visit his office. You will see his devotion to RE/MAX and his effort to make his office, the best of the best. You can't miss it. Stop and introduce yourself.”
“I worked with Basel to help take his company to the next level and he was wonderful to work with. Basel is over the top Sensational! He knows EVERYONE!!! His ability to speak what needs to be said and say it in an engaging way is only one of the many amazing communication skills Basel has! More than even that is his commitment to his customers, employees, and everyone around him. He is a first class professional, family man and person. When Basel speaks, you should listen -- he is his promise! I loved working with Basel and I am proud to call him my friend!”
“I have found Basel to be one of t he most knowledgable and caring realtors I have ever had the pleaure to work with. He is definitely a class act and a very good friend. I would reccomend him to any client and hold his friendship in the highest regard.”
“My success in real estate can directly be attributed to my association with RE/MAX At Home, my broker, Basel Tarabein, the front desk staff and our bookkeeper. I came here as a brand new agent and was really scared! The support and assistance I received helped form a solid foundation on which I have built my business. No matter what challenge I encountered, either a member of the team or the Broker was able to help me through it. The atmosphere here is open, warm and friendly. I have been asked by many other real estate companies to join their offices. Even though they were closer to my home, I wouldn’t leave RE/MAX At Home for any money!"
“Basel is a one of a kind great kind efficient person. I have got to know him over the years and would say he is on top of the real estate game. He has a dedicated group of realtors and a huge following of loyal clients. I am looking forward to watching many more years of Basels success!”
“It is unfortunate that in the past few years, some folks entered into the Real Estate business and they shouldn’t have! After going through a few bad experiences with some, one tends to lose faith in this industry. I am very fortunate to find, know and work with Basel. I am a fortune 50 executive and I demand professionalism from myself, colleagues and my service providers. Basel stands out to be one of those individuals that I keep and enjoy working with and referring family, friends and colleagues to. He makes me proud especially when I receive a “thank you” note from people I referred Basel to. His knowledge is superb, his guidance and recommendation are based on client satisfaction and not his personal gain. He runs and expects from his agents the same level of knowledge and professionalism he has. Basel is the “real deal”.”
“Basel has the great ability to look beyond the norm. The old saying “This is How it’s Always Been Done” is not how Basel works. He is always looking for new & innovative ways that will benefit his and his agents business. Basel has so much energy and enthusiasm, it is refreshing and contagious. I encourage you to stop by his RE/MAX at Home & Design Center, and you will enlightened!”
“Basel and I have traded referrals over the past 10 plus years. I always know that when I refer a friend or client to Basel that he will go the extra mile to make sure that they are completely comfortable. Basel is a true resource for me, sometimes the best service I can provide someone is a good referral and Basel never disappoints. The Remax at Home staff is always professional and courteous. When it comes to my next home or investment property I plan to utilize Remax at Home!”
“I've worked with Basel Tarabein and his group of professionals consistently over the past 3 years. Basel is a leader in the Real Estate industry and it shows in the way he operates his business. His personal clients are always well taken care of and he provides vast opportunity for the Broker's at RE/MAX at Home!”
“During my long career as a real estate developer, I was fortunate to work with many talented real estate professional brokers. Basel ranks, hands down, at the top of the list of those professional brokers. He is sincere, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and results oriented. I strongly recommend Basel and I still do business with him”
“I am writing to express my extreme satisfaction with Mr. Tarabein as my realtor. I have dealt with numerous realtors in my capacity as a construction professional, but none had been as professional and motivated as Mr. Tarabein and his firm. Mr. Tarabein and his staff always made me feel as if I was their only client. They made the process a pleasurable experience. They are savvy, personable and know the market inside and out.”
“I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt but only more love” – Mother Theresa. This quote describes the type of attitude I live by in my business. My focus on relationships is how I build my success. I find that investing in other people not only benefits them but is the most worthwhile way for me to spend my time. The more relationships I build, the more real estate opportunities come my way. My business flourishes by prioritizing relationship-building; and friendship becomes the building blocks for my success. With every successful venture come numerous challenges. The biggest challenge for me was the amount of money it cost to get my business up-and-running. It was easy to spend more and more, but I realized the loss in achieving high production levels- when a huge overhead remained. I overcame this challenge by creating a budget which insured my business would be profitable. The bottom line is so crucial. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter how many homes you sell but how much money you have to take home.The aspect of my business in which I feel most confident is my RE/MAX affiliation. When I first became licensed, I searched for the best company in the marketplace to join, and RE/MAX quickly became the obvious choice. In life, I always had a taste for the best quality in everything-the best cars, the best clothes, and the best food. I certainly could not lower my standards for my business affiliation! And since, I have learned that RE/MAX is truly as good as it gets!As a RE/MAX agent and Broker-Owner, I know what drives my success. My accomplishments inspire me to achieve more and to set higher standards. This feeling of achievement motivates my entire business. Another inspiration is Michael Jordan, whose mindset for is basketball career: “If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.” is how I approach my own career. I don’t give myself the option of failure – the thought of failure only excuses us from doing our best. Instead, I embrace the exaggerated outlook of “win or die.” After all, in our business, ‘achieving a win’ is what motivates us to win again and again.Basel is married to his wife, M.J., and has two children, a daughter Leila and a son Malec. The family resides in Kildeer, IL
