Seller - Lincoln Park

"Joanne sold our vintage Lincoln Park co-op apartment. From the initial listing and pricing process through the eventual sale and closing, Joanne was actively involved in moving us forward. We chose her to represent us based upon her sterling reputation and upon our personal knowledge of her over a number of years. Our apartment took over a year to sell, but Joanne was tireless during the entire period in marketing and publicizing. She was extremely professional in all her dealings with us. We still believe her to be the most effective real estate professional in Chicago and we heartily recommend her."

"Joanne is undoubtedly one of the best and most hard working real estate agents in Chicago. Her skill and professionalism resulted in the sale of our house in Lincoln Park. She is personally involved in every step of the sale process and always had a positive and sunny attitude about our home that she conveyed to buyers."

"Joanne is amazing. After relocating to the Chicago area, and being 8 months pregnant, Joanne held our hand through the whole search and ultimate purchase of our new home. A whirlwind of energy and enthusiasm, Joanne was able to help us frame our search parameters in a very practical way. She gave us wonderful advise about the different neighborhoods and the pros and cons of the different homes we were viewing. But it was her skill as a negotiator that was the most impressive. She knows the ins and outs of the legal process and drives a hard bargain. She got us into our current house at a great discount, and in the nick of time. She was a pleasure to work with, and we owe her a debt of gratitude."

"If you are looking for someone extremely professional, a strong work ethic and very knowledgable in all aspects of Real Estate, then Joanne is your answer. She is sensitive to your needs and wants and really takes an interest in her clients. She makes you feel like you are her only client and she and her staff are there to answer any questions or solve any problems that may arise. Joanne and her staff from the very start had our beautiful brochures made and her marketing skills were the best. Joanne has great negotiation skills and you can put your trust in her and know that the best job will be done for you in every way!"

"I remember very clearly when we met for the first time in August to discuss listing the house. I had a light bulb moment when you told me that in the current market, a seller's broker cannot sell a house simply by listing it on the MLS and hoping that people show up to see it. You promised me that you would work hard for me, and you delivered on that promise. From the very beginning, this experience was different, and I was confident that the results would be different too. There is no substitute for someone, like you, who has a ton of experience selling homes in Lincoln Park. You have seen it all before and could anticipate how things would play out. It made me very comfortable with the decisions that we made together."

Seller - Lincoln Park

"Joanne represented us in selling our Lincoln Park condo. She is extremely knowledgeable of the local market. She and her team are extremely professional and were very helpful throughout the entire sale process (initial listing, pricing, pictures, marketing, negotiations, etc.) and kept things moving forward smoothly. Her network to other local brokers and clients ultimately helped us sell our condo quickly (before public listing). We highly recommend her to any others looking to sell real estate in the Chicago area."

"I cannot say enough good things about Joanne. She is very professional while at the same time being relaxed and open. She is easy to communicate with and has the magic touch when it comes to selling. Thank you Joanne!"

Buyer - Chicago, IL

"Joanne is truly the best there is. Whether you're a first time buyer or an experienced buyer, Joanne is able to utilize her market knowledge and expertise to ensure that her clients are getting the best possible outcome based on their preferences. She's a staple in the Chicago real estate market; this was most apparent when when we would arrive for a showing and the seller/seller's broker immediately recognized who she was or had heard of her. She treats every client she has equally and offers the same level of responsiveness and passion across the board. She accommodates to her client's schedules despite her services being in such high demand all the time. I couldn't imagine going through this process without having Joanne by my side and there is no one else that I will ever use."

Home Seller

"We've now both bought and sold with Joanne as our agent, and we couldn't be happier with our experience with her! She's incredibly knowledgeable in the Lincoln Park market where we lived, and thinks creatively and strategically to reach new potential buyers. In an EXTREMELY tough market, we sold our house for more than we purchased it for (September 2011), and Joanne was instrumental in closing the deal. Thanks Joanne!"

Buyer, March 2020

"Your knowledge and experience led me to make the best possible decision on my purchase. My mind was hopelessly cluttered with too many online listings. You knew what was right for me before I did. You were right when you told me that this home was the "perfect" place for me. It was a pure genius, and something I could not have figured out on my own."
