Testimonials
Just Sold on Sheridan Rd!
We have had the pleasure of working with Jill over the last 10+ years on both the buy side and the sell side. She is tremendous--professional, responsive and operates with a sense of urgency. Jill was forthcoming and honest in our home readiness, pricing and time to sell in the sale of our home recently--and sold it in a matter of weeks! Most importantly, Jill develops a marketing plan that is specific to your home and positioning and engages potential buyers by first seeking to understand what they are looking for. She represented our home beautifully! I would not hesitate to recommend Jill!

We are grateful for all Jill's help throughout the process, both during and after home buying. She always kept our best interests close to her heart — we are lucky to have Jill's guidance and support. Jill not only knows the market well, but her years of expertise help you consider things you may not think of initially but later realize the importance of! Thanks to Jill we are a neighborhood we couldn't be happier with and adore the potential of our forever home.

Couple Moving From Chicago Find Their Forever Home with Jill's Help
Working with Jill was an absolute pleasure. She is incredibly knowledgeable, and was so helpful through
every step of the process. Her availability, creativitiy, expertise, and general desire to go above and beyond
in every facet of the transaction is truly second to none. Real Estate transactions can be rather stressful, and
Jill did everything in her power to make sure ours went as smooth as possible. I think we've found our "forever
home" now, but in the event we move again, I can't imagine working with anyone else!

New York Clients Selling Their Lake Forest Family Home
Jill Okun knows the community, is good humored and optimistic, and follows through on everything. She identified a potential buyer and gently reeled them in, so that I can honestly say Jill made the sale. Jill also shepherded us through the village inspection and made sure the closing was smooth, and everyone is happy. Jill is a superstar!

A Great Experience!
I would like to write a referral for Jill Okun. She was our very patient and informative buyers representative as she helped us move to Lake Forest. We looked at well over 20 homes together. Not only was Jill always happy to help, but she knows the Lake Forest and Lake Bluff area like no one else, got us access to homes not yet on the market, and very patiently offered guidance as we navigated a difficult negotiation. Working with Jill made what would have been an otherwise stressful move much easier. She was the best - and I do not user that term lightly. Jill is outstanding and we highly recommend her!

Lake Bluff Clients Refer Their Friends
Jill is our fabulous/fantastic realtor who treated us like we were her own children and advocated for us like a tough realtor should! I referred her to my sister-in-law's friend and they absolutely loved her too and ended up getting a house in Libertyville through Jill as well and they sound very happy! You know David and I are tough customers and we can't say enough great things about Jill!
My Transferee Clients from New York
"Jill played an integral role in our decision to select Lake Forest for our new home. She spent the time to show us many different neighborhoods, and she provided essential information about schools and services. Jill did not abandon us upon closing. She has been a vital source of information..and a key ingredient to our 'settling in.' The one year anniversary of our decision to buy our new home has been a time to reflect on the many positive changes in our life, and Jill was instrumental in helping us accomplish them. Jill's services were by far the very best of all the brokers in the various communities in which we looked."
