Testimonials
"Wow! Jovanka's GREAT! She guided us through the entire selling experience, actually finding 3 buyers who submitted bids over our asking price -- BEFORE we even prepared the property for showing! We won't ever forget her lugging her own ladder into our home to change a ceiling light bulb -- and changing it herself! We are so happy to close 45 days before we had thought it would be possible!!"
- Jeff G., Home Seller, Roscoe Village, Chicago
"Jovanka is a real-estate warrior. She ease-fully helped sell my condo at the end of 2022 (i.e., during a very unpredictable time in the market). And not only did she sell it during a strange historical moment: her thoughtful approach - namely, converting my one-bedroom to a two-bedroom with little effort - resulted in a sale price that far exceeded my expectations. Jovanka also assisted with millions of little things. I was not readily available to go to my property on a daily basis, but Jovanka was always there to let in handymen, talk to contractors, and hassle my HOA. I highly recommend Jovanka for your next real estate journey."
- Regina C., Home Seller, East Lincoln Park, Chicago
"Jovanka is very knowledgeable about real estate, helped us time our sale for ideal conditions, was so accommodating and helpful in arranging staging and cleaning while we were already out of town and very nice to work with. I would highly recommend working with Jovanka as your real estate agent to sell your home"
- Rachel E., Home Seller, Lincoln Park, Chicago
"Jovanka is amazing! She is so incredibly responsive but without being overbearing or demanding. This wasn't my first buying experience, but my first in Chicago. Jovanka took the time to explain the process, answer all my questions, and calm me down when I freaked out. Her patience and expertise while I found the right property and negotiated made me feel secure that I was making the right decision. I cannot recommend her highly enough as a real estate agent!!"
- Judith P., Home Buyer, River North, Chicago
