WHat our clients say

Horizon Realty values hearing from our clients, and their testimonials affirm the strength of our partnerships and the positive impact of our work.

"A valuable partner in our success"

I worked with Ilija and Horizon on a multi-tenant restaurant anchored retail center in Elk Grove Village. Our firm specialized in industrial development but we retained this property as part of a larger development. Ilija and his team were incredibly good in providing us clear direction on how to manage this property, dealing with the tenants and providing accurate and timely cash flow and operating statements. His team really shined during the challenges presented during the Covid lockdowns and without their expertise and excellent management, our outcome on this project would have been much different. They truly were a valuable partner in our success in acquiring, leasing and selling this property.


- Jim Mcgill, CA Ventures

"He played a key role"

I have worked with Ilija on a few transactions in the past 10 years. I was the leading broker selling the asset and he was the existing manager. On each transaction, he played a key role in identifying the important aspects that benefited both sides in the deal. He has built a great team around him and will be a continued asset for any property owner looking for an experienced manager.
