I worked with Stephen Bogart and he was amazing. I had to move out of state in the middle of the process and he went above and beyond to help me get things accomplished from another area. He also made sure that I didn't get charged exorbitant fees. Things that should've never happened - happened in the process and he just went above and beyond. I would recommend him to anyone. I would give them seven stars out of five that's how awesome he was!
We were lookin to make a better move for our family, we needed more space. We tried another company, they consistently showed us houses unavailable to us. With Laurie's help, we found it after only 5 houses. She had all the area knowledge we needed. It was an amazingly seamless process!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

We had intended to move into a smaller space and on one floor. Laurie Fuller was our Agent. She had so much patience. After about 6 months we just decided to stay in our beautiful home. One Sunday the news letter I got from Laurie had a Duplex. We didn't downsize much but when we stepped inside, I knew I was home. Our offer was accepted. Laurie got us in touch with Jack and he took over selling our house. Jack was with us every step of the way explaining what would happen next. We never felt we were out in left field alone. Our house sold within a few days. Now it's full steam ahead! Our experience with Adam Merrick's group of professionals rate a 5⭐ with us.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

I recently sold my house in Peoria, and I couldn’t recommend Adam Merrick more! Everyone I spoke with throughout the process was so kind and helpful, taking so much of the stress out of what can certainly be an overwhelming affair. My listing agent, Stephen Bogart, was outstanding. Stephen kept me updated every step of the way and made himself available via phone, text, or email in case I had any questions. My closing coordinator, Zenna Murphy, was wonderful as well, ensuring I was prepared for closing and knew what to expect. I felt comfortable and confident that I was in good hands the entire time! Highly recommend :-)
Russell Grammer far exceeded expectations as an agent in his unwavering attention to detail and communication in our real estate transaction. We have purchased several houses in our time and none have gone as smoothly and uncomplicated as this transaction. This agent is setting the precedent that all should follow. We have and will continue to recommend Russell.
We worked with Philicia to find our first home! She is such a kind and easy to work with person. We aren't the type that want to be bombarded day and night and Philicia went with our flow which worked perfect for us. She was quick to respond and always found us answers to our questions. Then the rest of the Adam Merrick team (including Adam himself!) went above and beyond to quickly find solutions for some problems that popped up on closing day. I'm so thankful that we found Philicia and Adam Merrick realty! Our first home buying experience went amazing because of them!
Philicia is absolutely amazing, she made the entire experience amazing and simple for a first time home buyer! And very accommodating when needing to bring kids to a showing! Very blessed to of had her for the purchase of our first home!
Excellent and great hardworking team to work with and they actually made buying my new home a great experience without all the stress. The process was effortless on my end...Thanks to my realtor Philica Moll & all of the Adam Merrick 's for all their great work.
I was referred to Adam Merrick and the team through a friend who used them when she bought her first house. Derrick was great! Very helpful as I am a first-time home buyer myself. Letting him know that in the beginning and that I wasn't sure how to do all of it, he walked me through every step and was available if I had questions no matter the time. He got me a great deal on my house. Would recommend Adam Merrick to any friend or family member looking for a house.
We are moving out of state and had a short amount of time to sell our home. We picked Adam Merrick Real Estate because we had used them to buy our home. During that time, we had one day to look at homes and our agent found us three very different options and we were able to pick that day. So, we knew we wanted to go with them again when we sold our house. Adam and Laurie came to our house and walked us through their plans and the facts and figures and assured us it would sell before we moved. Once the house was listed, it was sold 5 days later. Laurie was responsive to our concerns and questions and listened to what we wanted. She communicated everything about our offer openly and walked us through terms we didn't understand. The pictures they took for the listing were professional and beautiful. We are very happy with the service and care they provided.
Derek has been very responsive and helpful when we want to look at new listings. While nothing has come to the market that we’ve bought yet, he continues to be very helpful in our home search by sending us new listings and getting us in to see homes we are interested in! I look forward to closing a deal with him in the future!
The Adam Merrick Team was great all around in the home buying process. They all provided great communication and answered any questions I had along the way. My realtor, Derek Tipsword, had my showings set up in a very timely manner and had great advice when negotiating with the seller. My fiancé and I are very pleased with our experience with Derek and Adam Merrick and we will definitely use them again in the future.
Derek did a great job for us! Super responsive and quick to give and find answers. Would recommend using Adam Merrick Real Estate and Derek Tipsword!
It was a pleasure to speak with Philicia regarding a few homes that we wanted to see. She has been so helpful and is very responsive when contacting me. My experience has been Awesome!
Derek Tipsword was so helpful and patient with us as we navigated this process. We appreciate all his knowledge and helpfulness and we were able to find the home that fit our needs. Thank you Derek for everything and for showing us the 20 plus houses.
Stephen Bogart was our agent and I can’t believe how fast our property sold and how easy it was. We had a lot of appointments to show the house within the first few hours and sold within 24 hours! Thank you for making this a great experience!
Russell Grammer is the best buyer specialist around. Professional advice and information. Someone a client can depend on. He not only took me to every location and explained things in detail but he made sure that I didn't rush into anything to fast. It's very rare to find anyone in relastate not out to just make a sale. He will make your buying a home not only a special experience but he shows sincere joy for you when you finally find the home of your dreams
I left my home for an assisted living environment and didn’t want to maintain the property as a landlord. I wanted a realtor to help me sell my home and to represent my interest. I chose Adam Merrick because I wanted someone familiar with Morton. Stephen Bogart was excellent. He helped me with every step. Start decluttering now and call Adam Merrick!
When I decided to retire out of state, it meant selling my home. With proven results, and a professional approach to marketing my home, Adam Merrick Realty was my choice. With a full asking price offer within weeks, I could not have been more impressed. Thank you, Stephen, and to your team!
Exceptional, professional, courteous service throughout the entire sale process! Every micro detail covered and taken care of long before I even thought to ask the question. I highly recommend this agency.
Laurie Fuller and Cindy Carlock are true gems and answered every question (trust me...I had a lot) most before I even had to ask! Our home was only on the market for 8 hours when we received multiple offers and our home was sold in less than 12 hours. This is the company to use for knowledgeable agents and closing specialists.
Philicia, Zenna, Christina and the whole Adam Merrick real estate team were amazing to work with! They answered every question I had and guided me thru the whole process, absolutely would work with them again! :) Philicia Moll is a great agent!!
Stephen Bogart made selling my home a breeze. Any issues that came up during the sale he provided solutions and people to solve them. Excited to use his services again.
My husband and I were looking for our dream home and recently found the perfect lake house. I have heard so much positive results from the Adam Merrick Group that I called them first. There was no need to continue searching because the response and follow up was better than expected. Stephen took the reigns in his hands and kept us informed every step of the way. We had a few offers and within 10 days our house sold for above asking price. We didn't have to be concerned what our next step was. When it came time for the closing, Zenna was just as professional. The process was smooth and quick. Just like they promised. We would definitely recommend the Merrick Group to all our friends.
Stephen Bogart is literally an Angel. He goes above and beyond for his clients and sold our home in one day on the market!
Steve Bogart...my gift from God! I was a difficult sell in ways and he did it with kindness, compassion and respect! I would ask for him if you are selling or buying. He's an amazing man! The process was so quick and painless too...I'm glad I chose them!
We were so happy to work with Laurie at Adam Merrick. She was so helpful in providing advice on preparing our home to go on the market. She was very responsive and helped us get our home on the market and sold quickly!
We had already sold our house and were just waiting on closing when our next house fell through. We only had 3 1/2 weeks to closing to find a new place, but Stacy with Adam Merrick took us from idea of moving to accepted offer on new house for us in three days. The woman is a kind, gracious, and forthright force of nature. I'd recommend her and Adam Merrick to anyone looking to buy a home.
Stacy Schmitz was my realtor. This was my first time purchasing a home on my own and Stacy helped make it such a positive and growing experience for me! I would recommend her to anyone! She was always available to answer questions and very flexible in scheduling. She was also very professional and personable. Cindy Carlock was also very helpful with all my closing questions and concerns and made the process comfortable and easy. I am very grateful for everyone on the team and for all of their help and support!
I was very pleased with the Adam Merrick team. Jason Berger was very helpful helping me to find the right house, he was there through the whole process answering all my questions. I would strongly recommend Adam Merrick Real Estate! And a big thank you to Jason Berger!
Jason did an amazing job helping our family find a larger home. Terrific communication and support throughout the entire process.
The time came for our mother to be placed in long term care, so we were faced with the unexpected task of selling her home. Adam Merrick had been the realtor she bought her home from and their attention to her at that time was like it was their family member. With the emotions surrounding this we wanted someone who would be professional and understanding with all that would be involved and in the middle of the Christmas holiday. Stephen Bogart was the agent and he sat down with my sister and I and answered all our questions. He provided facts and resources to confidently guide us. We hired Adam Merrick Realty to list the home and that decision could not have been better! The day my mom's home was put on the market the first showing was booked. The first person seeing the home made an offer and we accepted on day two. Stephen Bogart was always available to take calls at any time or answer text messages and his responses were immediate! The kindness and professionalism during this process gave relief to a stressful and emotional time for all of us. Thank You Adam and to your team of great people.
I am just getting started on the sale of my home and Stephen Bogart and his team have made everything such a breeze to this point! We already have an accepted offer on our house after just a couple short weeks!
It was Heaven sent the experience that I went through. I thank God for letting you people help me with all that you did for me and my mom. May God Bless you all forever.
Stacy Schmitz was great! She was patient and helped me find what I was looking for. Funny story, while we were looking at houses for a couple months, we figured out we share a birthday. As fate made it happen, I saw the house I wanted on our birthday, bid on it, and got it. Magic happens through Adam Merrick Real Estate:) Highly recommend!
Jason did an amazing job helping our family find a larger home. Terrific communication and support throughout the entire process.
My realtor Jason was real easy to work with. He helped us out alot in our buying process
I would always have my kids with me to look at houses and Philicia was great during viewings. She gets to know what your needs are and works to find the home you want.
I worked with Philicia and she was AMAZING. She answered all questions I had and would not stop looking until she helped find our perfect house. For a first time homebuyer I wouldn't have wanted this experience with anyone else. She's the best!
Stephen and Philicia and the whole Adam Merrick team made the home selling and buying process extremely simple and easy.
Stephen and Philicia and the whole Adam Merrick team made the home selling and buying process extremely simple and easy.
Derek was super helpful in finding us our perfect starter home! He made the process as easy and painless as possible.
Derek was amazing through our entire process of selling our home! Very professional and a super nice guy! I will recommend him every chance I get for years to come!
I recently bought a house and Stacy Schmitz the agent that worked with me through everything was top notch. I work 3rd shift so day time hours are tough for me but she worked around my schedule and even helped me at night when i had questions. The whole process was easy and as stress free as it could be. Would highly recommend.
We recently closed on our new home with the help of Alison Reed on the Adam Merrick Team. Alison helped us through everything and hustled to make our house dreams a reality. She guided us through everything and as a first time home buyer that made the process so much easier. Having an experienced realtor who knows what to look out for, how to negotiate and who also has helpful contacts in the community is necessary in today’s market. Alison went above and beyond for us and we can’t wait to have her help sell our old house for us next!
I just signed my closing paperwork today with Derek and Cindy. They made the process very easy when I couldn't go to the scheduled closing.
Jason Berger was our realtor from the Adam Merrick team. He went above and beyond to make this deal go through for us in Peoria. He was very responsive, night or day, listened to all of our requests, and negotiated a great deal!
Adam did a wonderful job in helping our closing process go smoothly. Adam Merrick's Real Estate team professionalism was top notch. Jason Berger was our Realtor. He was so helpful, very responsive to our questions and concerns! Everyone did an amazing job in making our home search process not as stressful.
Stephen Bogart did an outstanding job for us! He was very professional and gave us very good advice from prior to making the listing all the way up through the closing. Stephen is an experienced and honest agent that far exceeded our expectations! We highly recommend Stephen Bogart!
Adam Merrick did an amazing job selling our home. Laurie Fuller was our listing agent and to say she went above and beyond for us is an understatement. Her ability to help us understand everything and keep us on track was incredible and she was a life saver throughout the entire process. Alyssa was absolutely amazing with taking our listing photos. Extremely kind, helpful, instructive, and courteous. Gave clear direction on how to stage rooms and was patient while I continued to clean up around us.
Jason Barger was our Realtor and we highly recommend him. Jason went above and beyond to help us find our home. Jason is very knowledgeable, courteous, trustworthy, and compassionate. Like
Our experience with Adam Merrick’s Stacy Schmitz has been wonderful! We reached out when we wanted to casually begin looking at homes, and she guided us from that step to purchasing our dream home! She is thorough and knowledgeable, yet so approachable and flexible. She answered all our questions quickly and was a true pleasure to work with.
My fiancée and I had the pleasure of working with Jason Berger in the process of buying our first home. His knowledge of both the home buying process and the construction industry helped us determine if each house we looked at was right for us. He gave us tips and things to look for that may need to be fixed right away, and what could wait a few years if we went with that house! We had a wonderful experience working with Jason and Adam Merrick Real Estate to close on our first house!
Derek Tipsword and the entire Adam Merrick team went above and beyond my expectations. The house sold in a day and we closed a little over a month later. Absolutely great to deal with.
I just want to thank Jason Berger and the team at Merrick for helping me and making it easy for me. Appreciate you so much.
I chose Adam Merrick because of their professionalism and ability to sell , not only quickly, but to get the best deal for me. I will always appreciate Allison and Zenna for their assistance in every step. Thank you.
I worked with Stacy Schmitz for the last several months looking for my first home, she was phenomenal! Stacey is very responsive and answered all of my questions- there were a lot. When I found the right house Stacey walked me through the process of buying and was very attentive to my needs as a first time home buyer. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a new home.
Stacy Schmitz was assigned to me by Laurie and it we are a PERFECT match! Stacy personalized my home search and it felt like I was her ONLY client as she gave me her full attentiveness every interaction! Stacy knows her business! She was very professional, prompt, on top of every call, text, showing, follow through, suggestions, and overall A TOP NOTCH REALTOR AND MORE! I am very thankful and pleased working with Stacy, as I will refer her personally to anyone looking to buy a home. Thank you Stacy! It's been an blessing, honor and pleasure. XO Kendra
Chase was the best during our house buying process. He made sure we got into our dream home.
I had a great experience. My house sold for more than the asking price in just one day. Alison and Zenna were wonderful and both deserve recognition from Adam for providing excellent service.
Stacy was great at helping us find our perfect home. She listened to what we wanted and kept a diligent eye on new listings coming in for me. She was a pleasure to work with!
I am so glad we chose Adam Merrick to sell our home in Peoria. A very special thanks to Alison, who made the entire experience painless. She was diligent and communicative throughout each phase. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent to work with. Also, a shout out to Jonathan for connecting us! I cannot recommend Adam Merrick enough if you’re looking to sell your home!
We specifically worked with Jason Berger from Adam's office and he was terrific. He was very knowledgeable in the home buying process and was always available as needed. He answered our questions with clear and timely responses. He was available through call, text & email. He helped us from the first to the last step of the home buying process and was extremely friendly and easy to work with. Definitely recommend Jason and if ever needed would go through him again. Thanks for your help!
We found Adam Merrick just by seeing billboards/ads around the area and went with them to buy a house after moving back to Central Illinois from Iowa. We couldn't be happier with our experience. Our agent, Chase, was fantastic. He showed us a lot of great properties, and when we found the one, he took care of everything and answered every question we had. If he didn't know the answer, he would get it for us quickly. He also went to bat for us when we went back and forth with the sellers on the one thing we asked them to fix. We were in great hands and felt like he did everything he could for us and more. I could not recommend Adam Merrick real estate enough and especially Chase. They get it done and they try to get you the best deal they can.
Adam Merrick Realty is fortunate to have Kaylee Jones as part of their corporate team. My wife and I recently purchased a home in Morton and could not be more satisfied with Kaylee's commitment to meeting our home buying expectations. My understanding is that our purchase represented Kaylee's initial sale of her realty career, but she seemed like a seasoned veteran throughout the entire process. She was knowledgeable, answering our questions, of which there were many, immediately or providing us answers asap. Kaylee accommodated our busy schedules by making herself available during the evening hours and also on weekends. Her demeanor was pleasant and her attitude was always positive making for a very comfortable business relationship. We were most impressed with Kaylee's ability to quickly mitigate a number of issues that threatened to delay or derail the scheduled closing. She tackled the issues head on and resolved them in an assertive but professional manner. Simply put, Kaylee has her act together when it comes to meeting her client's expectations. Indeed my wife and I plan to put a property on the market in the upcoming weeks and fully expect Kaylee to lead the effort to sell the property.
Derrick Tipsword was amazing. If I could give him a 1000 stars I would. He was available anytime we called. Very helpful in the whole process. Any question we had he had an answer. He always went above and beyond.
Our experience was amazing. From the time our listing was online.. we had showings almost everyday. Our house sold in 9 days and we were thrilled. Can't say enough good things about our realtor Stephen Bogart and Adam Merrick.
We previously bought our home with Adam Merrick because our realtor wasn't responsive or proactive. So when it was time to sell we reached out again. We were well taken care of. We worked with Derek who was very attentive and very responsive! We had a huge time crunch to sell and move and Derek was wonderful to work with under such pressure. Everyone in the office was very helpful and accommodating. We appreciated the honesty in all aspects. We would definitely recommend!!
Derek has been very responsive and helpful when we want to look at new listings. While nothing has come to the market that we’ve bought yet, he continues to be very helpful in our home search by sending us new listings and getting us in to see homes we are interested in! I look forward to closing a deal with him in the future! Derek helped us sell our home for above asking price on the first day on market! His knowledge of the local market and selling strategy was unmatched and helped us get top dollar for our home. We’re very appreciative of his help and recommend him to all our family and friends!
Hats off to the great team at Adam Merrick Real Estate. My house was on the market for 13days only. Steve Bogart was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was helpful and on the ball every step of the way. If you’re looking to sell your home contact Steve Bogart, he can sell your house in a timely manner.
Stephen was very easy to work with and was patient while waiting for information. I am out of state and he did what needed to be done to accommodate me.
Just purchased our first home with the Adam Merrick Team. We were referred to use Stacy Schmitz as our realtor, and it was 1000% the best decision we made. She has been so helpful and had our backs throughout the entire process, and continues to even after closing. We are so appreciative!
Thank you to our awesome realtor, Alison Reed. She was just the person we needed after our father passed away. Alison was compassionate, understanding and professional. She made certain we knew how to navigate the seller’s world in this complicated system. Zenna Hafliger was our closing specialist. She was professional and caring. She made the whole process run very smoothly with her efficiency. We were so thankful to have Alison and Zenna to depend upon.
Stacy helped make purchasing my first home a stress free and memorable experience. She was very personable and professional and would recommend working with her and Adam Merrick realty. I am loving my new home!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

This is the second time we used Adam Merrick to purchase a house and I have nothing but good things to say. This time we worked with Kaylee Jones and we had a great experience. She really has gone above and beyond for my family and I. She was very patient, helpful, and personable through the entire process. She’s so hard working and I love that she’s not afraid to find out what she doesn’t know. An honest person is the best type of person to have by your side. If we get a third house we will look for Kaylee without a doubt. Thank you Kaylee!
We were very happy with Adam Merick Real Estate with the recent sale of our home. Alison was our agent. She was very professional, courteous and knowledgeable. We highly recommend her. She kept us constantly updated in a timely manner….. even if it was an evening or weekend. She was always available to us. We were also very impressed by Zenna who handled all our closing work.
Philicia did an excellent job in showing available houses for purchase. We are currently working with her and love her knowledge of the areas. She is always very helpful and prompt. We look forward to our continued support from her and the Merrick team
I want to thank Philicia for being so attentive and professional. She is always very helpful when making suggestions for houses to view. We are very excited to work with her.
I bought my house in April and I couldn’t be happier. Philicia did an amazing job throughout the whole process, first time homeowner and it was a breeze. Zenna was my closing coordinator and was on top of everything and helped make the whole experience stress free. Highly recommend these two when buying your home!
Phillicia is 100% real, kept it honest and met me everywhere I was looking and I will continue to talk with her.
Philicia Moll is the greatest realtor. Always helpful and on time, quick with response. Love her! She is awesome!
Chase was more helpful than we could of ever imagined. There were many pieces to this puzzle but Chase and Zenna handled everything very promptly!!! Would recommend this team to anyone in the market for a home.
Philicia moll was wonderful! Very patient, made sure I understood everything that was going on. Was even out there in the rain showing me every house I had sent her! If and when I am ready to buy my next house I will be going to her again!
I received an immediate response to my initial inquiry. Setting up the sale of the house was quick and efficient. My agent worked closely with the selling agent, and he kept me informed all along the process. I could not be more pleased. Thank you, Derek and Cindy, for your expertise and attention.
We called Adam Merrick because we had friends and family who had great experiences. I'm so thankful it was the same for us! As first time home buyers who were over stressed, under prepared, and on a FAST timeline, I wouldn't have kept my sanity without STACY SCHMITZ. She made the process so comfortable, explained everything I needed to know (as many times as I asked!), and checked in with me through the process like a best friend would. She is definitely the person you want in your corner while home buying! We are so happy in our new home and Stacy was instrumental in making it happen. She's our #homegirl
Stacy was a joy in our corner. She made us comfortable with our choices and she seemed to know exactly what we were looking for.
Me and my husband we're very fortunate to work with Bob Swingle he was always there when we had any questions or needed anything Adam Merrick real estate the best
Bob Swingle was the best real estate agent. With my husband and I buying a home while living in a different state and juggling busy schedules, Bob went above and beyond for us. He worked over time making sure we didn’t just end up in a house, but in one he trusts. Can’t thank him enough!
We used Adam Merrick Real Estate for the first time recently (specifically Derek Tipsword) to sell our mother-in-law’s house. Derek was very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. Most importantly, he was successful in a fast sale at a good price. I would add that Cindy Carlock, who handled the closing details in their office, was also very efficient and attentive. I would strongly recommend Derek and the Adam Merrick team if you are looking to buy or sell your house
We had a fantastic experience with the Merrick team and with Stephen Bogart who was our realtor. They made the entire process from start to finish seamless and as efficient as possible. We greatly appreciate the time they took in answering our questions, keeping us updated on next steps and making the process for us easy!! Zenna at closing was also amazing! She was so calm and did a wonderful job explaining everything!
As investors, we chose Adam Merrick Real Estate services because of their successful track record and outstanding reviews from past clients. Our agent Stephen Bogart has been amazing, he has been professional, patient and has provided great advice. Team Merrick has been great in helping with the process since the beginning; photographs, listings, paperwork, doc signings and closing. In closing, we are grateful and satisfied with their service.
We sold our current home and purchased another with Adam Merrick. Derek was our selling agent and Matt was our buying agent. Both were great in their knowledge, communication, and making sure they knew our interests. The Adam Merrick team was on top of all details throughout the entire process.
Kaylee Jones was our agent for buying our new home and she was great! Kaylee is knowledgeable and walked us through the entire process from start to finish. It was a great experience!
Awesome experience!! First class all the way. Adam and Derrick sold our house the first day on the market!!
We worked with Stacy Schmitz over the summer for buying our home. We absolutely loved her and she was so patient and kind when working with us. In todays market, we had to see many houses before we found one we fell in love with. We also were unsure of where we wanted to end up and looked at houses over two different counties. Her communication was remarkable and she was there for any questions or concerns we had, despite this not being our first rodeo. Highly recommend Stacy to help when looking for your dream home
Jason Berger is an amazing realtor. He is professional, courteous, knowledgeable and patient. He worked with us for a few months until we found the home that was perfect for us.
Derek and Cindy made selling and closing on our home a breeze. Derek is amazing at what he does and I highly recommend him as your realtor. Cindy is also amazing at what she does and made closing so easy and smooth. I felt like I did nothing during this process and that meant no stress which is exactly what we hired them for. They will be my go to for any buying or selling needs for sure.
Jason Berger worked with us through our home purchasing process. He was always not more than a phone call away or text. He did amazing and found us our dream home. Him and the team at Merrick and EZ mortgage were outstanding. Thank you.
Great experience selling our house thru Adam Merrick. We worked with Stephen Bogart, he was amazing sold our home in 2 weeks with a fair price!
Stacy Schmitz is patient and a Great listener!! She came through for us to have the new home!!
I had the pleasure of working with Derek Tipsword and Cindy Carlock from Adam Merrick Real Estate in the process of selling my home in Metamora. They were absolutely amazing to work with and made the experience so easy! I never would of made it through this process without their wonderful guidance! Very highly recommend! Thank you again!
Stacy Schmitz was our Buyers Agent, and she worked diligently for a year to help us find our home. She is awesome and devoted to her client's wants and needs in a home.
100% recommend Derek. He was able to sell our home within 30 days for top dollar and get us into our new family home with a heck of a deal. He kept us informed every step of the way. Wouldn’t choose another realtor. If we ever move again he will be our first call.
We had the pleasure of working with Kaylee to purchase our first home! We knew very little about the process but she was thorough and made it easy.
Stacy was extremely personable and made this process so much more stress free than expected! She was very knowledgeable throughout the whole process and was able to explain things in simpler terms for a first time buyer. Having someone consistently check in and be able to provide me tips along the way has been very beneficial!
Kaylee was so great! It took us some time to get started looking for houses due to some family issues but she kept following up and gave us the time we needed. She helped us find the perfect house and the process couldn't have been smoother! Highly recommend!! 😊♥️
Jason was extremely helpful with helping my find and purchase my first home. Awesome experience!
I just started my journey to purchase a new home not that long ago and have been working with Russell Grammer. Although I have not found the right house yet Russell has been an absolute pleasure to work with he is attentive and quick to help whenever I have a question about anything or want to see a house. If you are looking for someone who will make things stress free and give you the best house buying experience possible do yourself a favor and give Russell a call!
Bob Swingle helped my mother buy a new home in East Peoria. He was always available to answer any questions, show us properties, and always searching for the perfect home for her. We appreciate all the help and being there every step of the way!
It’s been about 30 days since my wife and I sold a residential property in Marquette Heights, IL. I know this because Alison Reed of Adam Merrick Realty called us today to ensure that the transfer of ownership was seamless and to inquire if there were any outstanding issues regarding the sale that she could assist with. I should have been completely taken aback by the call because in today’s business environment who really cares about the customer once money has changed hands? But I really wasn’t surprised at all. Given the way Alison handled the sale of our property from Day 1 to closing, it’s obvious that she is on top of her game. The sale had its share of challenges, but Alison met the challenges head on and was in close communication with my wife and I throughout the process. She understood the concerns of both buyer and seller, developing solutions agreeable to both parties rather than focusing on other more lucrative clients that did not require so much of her energy. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Alison Reed and the entire Adam Merrick Realty team.
Chase Doubet has been amazing all the way through the process. He has the unique blend of being extremely knowledgeable about the real estate market in greater Peoria and also being very easy to work with. Highly recommended.
I had an incredible first home buying experience with Jason Berger! Jason is prompt, incredibly knowledgeable, and personable. There wasn’t a question he couldn’t answer and I could not have asked for better help buying my first home. Thank you Jason!
We called Adam Merrick Real Estate to discuss listing our house with them and to find out what services they would provide to sell our house. We listed with them and, much to our surprise, it sold on day 1!!! Derek Tipsword was our listing agent and he was awesome. He explained everything to us from what it would entail to get it listed on the market and how they would promote our house to get the perfect buyer for it. We also used Stacy Schmitz as our buyers agent and she was so patient with us. Listening to what we wanted in our new house to showing us houses that met our wants and needs. She is terrific. Cindy Carlock was our closing coordinator and she was so efficient and good at keeping us updated on the process of both the sale of our house and the purchase of our new house. Not sure what we would have done without her. We highly recommend using Adam Merrick Real Estate (and particularly Derek, Stacy and Cindy) as they have the most qualified and knowledgeable agents around!! If we ever need the services of a realtor, we will definitely be contacting them again!!
We called Adam Merrick Real Estate to discuss listing our house with them and to find out what services they would provide to sell our house. We listed with them and, much to our surprise, it sold on day 1!!! Derek Tipsword was our listing agent and he was awesome. He explained everything to us from what it would entail to get it listed on the market and how they would promote our house to get the perfect buyer for it. We also used Stacy Schmitz as our buyers agent and she was so patient with us. Listening to what we wanted in our new house to showing us houses that met our wants and needs. She is terrific. Cindy Carlock was our closing coordinator and she was so efficient and good at keeping us updated on the process of both the sale of our house and the purchase of our new house. Not sure what we would have done without her. We highly recommend using Adam Merrick Real Estate (and particularly Derek, Stacy and Cindy) as they have the most qualified and knowledgeable agents around!!

When we first started looking at homes in September, we were looking for a Realtor that would show us homes and not push their influence on us just to sell a home. We saw a home we liked and called the number. Chase Doubet answered right away, and he started lining up appointments to our request. From the start he took the time to listen to us. The first day, calling him, he showed us 3 houses in the same day. He was always on top of items, and he responded right away. He was honest in his feedback. He was with us every step of the process from looking at several homes, when we placed a bid to buy the home, and he was there at closing to make sure everything went okay. He did everything to make this process as easy on us as possible. Chase Doubet was OUTSTANDING! We will always recommend him to anyone buying a home!
The Adam Merrick team was so sweet when my husband and I were buying our house! Russell was the absolute best!
Philicia is the best agent of all time! She worked with me and my family for many years to find us our perfect house!
Philicia She is a wonderful buyer specialist. She is very patient. She is very helpful. She goes above and beyond with her clients.
Listed my mom's home with Adam Merrick Real Estate and it sold in one day, they handled everything and made it a very simple process. I highly recommend them. All staff we dealt with were excellent, Destiny Dempsey kept me informed of everything I needed to do, and Stephen Bogart was available to answer all my questions. Adam Merrick and staff Thank You for making this such an pleasant experience for our family.
Brad was so friendly and energetic! We appreciated him and all the other people standing out in the cold handing out the pies! We look forward to this every year as we have made this a tradition! Happy Holidays 😊
After living in the Chicago land area for the past 35 years we decided it was time to come back home to the Peoria area. We checked out Zillow and was introduced to Kaylee Jones who agreed to help us find our new home. She is one of the most kind, hardworking and honest souls I’ve met. Kaylee was very attentive to our needs and wants and was always quick to reply with any questions we had. It was a pleasure working with her! Adam Merrick Real Estate is blessed to have her on their team! I highly recommend Kaylee for your next home purchase.
Putting my house on the market (in South Pekin) came with a lot of doubt and fear. We decided to hire Adam Merrick Real Estate and those emotions were put to rest from the moment we met Derek Tipsword! He was beyond reassuring and helpful, not to mention understanding and as passionate about our property selling as we were. Sometimes we had hesitation with some of his thoughts and suggestions however we trusted him and followed his advice which ultimately led to our home selling for over asking and within 24 hours. The entire process was smooth and honestly easy all the way to closing. At closing we met with Cindy who also was beyond helpful and flexible. If the need arises, we will not hesitate to use this company again and especially Derek! Best realtor around!
Derek was absolutely amazing! He walked me through every step and was always available for any questions I had. Being a first time homebuyer is scary but super glad I had him in my corner!!
I had the pleasure of working with Adam and Stephen during my recent home buying/selling journey, and I cannot recommend their services highly enough. From the very beginning, the team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, deep market knowledge, and a genuine commitment to helping me achieve my real estate goals. Their attention to detail and proactive approach made the entire process seamless and stress-free. the took the time to understand my needs and preferences, providing tailored advice and guidance every step of the way. They were always available to answer my questions and went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and informed throughout the transaction. What truly sets them apart is their dedication to client satisfaction. They negotiated effectively on my behalf, securing a fantastic deal that exceeded my expectations. Their expertise and insight were invaluable, and I felt confident knowing I had a true advocate in my corner. I am incredibly grateful for outstanding service and would not hesitate to work with them again in the future. If you're looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about your success, look no further than Merrick Real Estate.
I was hesitant about selling my home because my kids thoroughly enjoyed the neighborhood and I wasn't even sure if my house would sell at the rate that I wanted to, but I needed something different and I wanted to move on. Stephen gave me a visit and inspected my home and told me that I would have no problem selling my home, especially with the space that it provided and the neighborhood it is in. I didn't even have to do many improvements and he was able to sell my home during the slowest time of the year at the rate that I wanted to sell it at! Win Win! If you want your home sold, find Stephen at Adam Merrick. Your home won't last long on the market.
Jason Berger did a fantastic job with helping me purchase my first home! He was able to work around my crazy night shift schedule and answered every question I had. Was available anytime I needed him to contact him. Jason was knowledgeable on each house I selected to see and was able to provide detailed information. Definitely made the process of buying my first home stress free and easy. I HIGHLY recommend working with him!!
Derek was great from the first day we met him up to the day we sold our house. He made the process as quick and painless as possible. I only wish we had him in Pennsylvania to help us buy a new house.
Derek was very pleasant to work with. Highly recommended him and the Adam Merrick Team!
From the awesome photographer, Alex, to the attentive and knowledgeable realtor, Philicia, our experience was great with Adam Merrick Real Estate. Thank you for capturing our home as beautifully as it made memories for my family and I.

We highly recommend Adam Merrick Real Estate Team to purchase or sell your home. This team is caring, hard-working, efficient, reliable and are excellent communicators. Chase made sure we were always up-to-date on the process, was highly knowledgeable and available to answer any questions and provide the advice we needed. He helped me feel at ease during this very emotional process. Adam Merrick helped us sell our home about 15 years ago, and we were so glad his team was available this time around. We cannot stress enough how impressed we are with Adam and his team. Truly the best!
I had the opportunity to work with Russell Grammer at Adam Merrick Real Estate. He was a blessing, took care of every need I had with a patience and professionalism that is unmatched. I Highly recommend if you are in the housing market to reach out to Russell.
Russell has been fanatastic! He searched for the broad ideas that we gave him and he was able to find what we wanted by the 2nd house. He really listens to what you are looking for. Thank you Russell for all that you do.
Adam Merrick is the best real estate company ever. And Stacy Schmitz deserves a raise.
Kaylee never failed to disappoint us when she was showing us houses. She was great to work with! When we had questions, she never hesitated to answer them. 10/10 recommend!
Kaylee was so helpful during our home purchase! She went out of her way to get answers to our questions, followed up with the listing agent promptly, and went above and beyond to help us with pictures of the listing and video walkthroughs!
Our agent Jason Berger was amazing. He found us exactly the right house and we were the first to see it and he helped us write up the offer that night. He was there every step of the way and even helped us with finding handyman to add the finishing touches to the house. He went so far above and beyond and we highly recommend Jason to anyone looking for a home. Genuinely a nice guy and very knowledgeable.
