Jean was a pleasure to work with - as if having your friend helping with your property needs. She was 100% committed to finding the best place for us. She hleped us uncover pros and cons of each property we viewed. Jean was always available to show us properties when convenient for us. We will certainly refer her to other Chicago prospective home buyers. Thanks Jean!

As a first-time homebuyer, I couldn't have asked for a better real-estate agent than Jean Sekera. My search strategy changed several times during the process, but Jean was able to adapt to my needs and provide a variety of options each time. In addition to showing me more than a dozen properties, she consistently sent me information about open houses, which eventually led me to my two-bedroom condo. She never put pressure on me to decide and had my best interests in mind throughout the process. Both Jean's Web site and the MLS search system were extremely informative and easy to navigate. I won't hesitate to work with Jean again for my future real-estate transactions.

This is the second time I have worked with Jean. The first time was in 2002 when she helped me find my first home. Being completely new to the process, she took the time to walk me through it, so it was not so scary. She was also extremely professional. She showed me properties that fit my interests and my budget.
In 2007, my wife and I decided to sell our home, and I was surprised when I contacted Jean for the first time in five years and she remembered me and the address of the property she'd previously helped me buy. We were quite nervous in selling given the current market situation (Spring 2007), but she was very straightforward with us. She had a very good feel for the market, and sized up our property vs. our competition well, accentuating the positives but not sugarcoating the flaws. This allowed us to best decide where we should allocate our budget to fix up our place before selling. She found a price point that we were happy with and that brought in a large number of prospective buyers. Jean was very confident in the face of a difficult market, and extremely hardworking. We were pleased with how soon we were able to sell our home. Jean provided us all the information we needed as sellers and was always available (day or night) to answer our questions and give her much valued opinion. She made sure to coordinate with all the parties involved and was truly on top of her game! To anyone out there who is contemplating on undertaking such an enormous task as buying or selling a home . . . we highly recommend working with Jean!

"As a first time home buyer I had many uncertainties about what I should look for when purchasing a home as well as many questions regarding the home buying process in general. Jean displayed a great knowledge for the business as well as a true patience with me to answer all my questions and concerns. She took into account my wishes for what I was looking for in a home and scheduled showings around my schedule. She helped me make a seamless transition to a home owner . I highly recommend Jean Sekera!"

I have worked with Jean for almost 8 years now, buying 3 properties and selling a new development of condominiums. I would never use anyone else. She has always been very professional, honest, and supporting. I feel Jean cares for her clients personally and understands their desires and needs. She has met our needs in all of our years together. Thank you, Jean

It was a great experience working with Jean on searching for and purchasing my condo. She made the process very easy and was very flexible with my schedule. I appreciated her patience and knowledge. I have recommended her to friends, and I hope I can work with her again in the future.

As a first time home buyer, Jean made the process less scary. She listened to my concerns and "must haves" and found the perfect place for me within our first day out looking. The minute I walked in the place I knew it was going to be mine. With Jean's help and expertise the home buying process was fast, painless and stress free, thanks Jean.


Justin H.
Thanks again for all your help. I was telling someone earlier that your professionalism impressed me. Whenever I asked for your opinion you were very diplomatic and just pointed out facts. You're very good at what you do. I'll call you again when the need arises and refer you to my friends.




Tara M.
Working with Jean made the process very simple. She sold my place in 2 days and worked with me to make sure I found a new home that I loved. I would recommend her to anyone.

After working with other realtors, Jean was a refreshing change. She never gets emotional and always is professional. I highly recommend her to all my friends and clients!

Monica and Brian
Our experience was very pleasant. Not only did we use Jean for the sale of our condo in Bucktown, but for the purchase of our new home in Albany Park. We found her professionalism to be refreshing. One of the main reasons we decided to list with her, was because of her "non-pushy" realtor approach. She let us take our time, look at as many places as we wanted to, and never pressured us in any way. We really appreciated that!

Thanks Jean - Monica and Brian


Bob and Linda G.
As you know, selling your home can be very stressful. You made everything from listing the house to the closing as stress-free as possible. You always kept us informed of every call, feedback on every showing and were always available for us. You negotiated a contract that was perfect for us.
Bob and I respect your professionalism and hard work. Thank you for helping us move on to our next home.

I was amazed at the patience Jean had with me in looking for a condo. Most agents would have given up on me as I changed my mind everyone other week but Jean stuck with me and helped me find my dream home!
