She came to our first meeting with comprehensive data to help us set the right price for the current market. She told us about the multiple different ways she'd be able to publicize the property, using conventional listing services, social media, and personal contact to make people aware of the offering. And it helped that her contacts extend well beyond our local area. Then she used these tools to sell the house in less than a week after it went on the market. By pricing the property correctly and getting it in front of people most likely to be interested, we avoided a protracted selling timeline. She helped us navigate the process of negotiating with buyers and realtors, completely the necessary documentation, and closing the deal. She worked very well with many parties needed to put together the transaction, including her staff team, other realtors, attorneys, and title company staff to make sure all the paperwork was completed in a timely manner. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Lake Geneva area.Read more

Her deep local knowledge was crucial each time, ensuring we understood true property values and made informed decisions. No matter what side of the transaction we were on, she and her team always provided exceptional communication and responsiveness, quickly addressing any questions or concerns we had.

Janis handled 2 real estate transactions for us and we cannot recommend her more. We had complete confidence in her knowledge and ability and she went over and beyond what we expected. A truly dedicated and compassionate individual!

Janis was our buyer's agent on a new build. She is an expert on the Lake Geneva area. Over the course of a year, she was always available, accompanied us on our many visits to the property, and gave us great advice. We highly recommend Janis!

My wife and I had been setting up showings on our own in the white-hot Lake Geneva area for a few months in mid-2020 when we met Janis at one of her listings.

She immediately stood out as different, in a good way, from other agents we had met during the process. Her years of experience in the market were immediately evident, however, it was her willingness to be helpful without any semblance of a marketing or sales pitch that won us over. Very quickly we migrated to working with Janis on our search. The internet is a great equalizer in a home search, so you need your agent to be more than simply a conduit of listings. Janis was insightful about the pros and cons of different locations around Lake Geneva, had a pulse on the rapidly changing dynamics in a competitive market, and was (and continues to be) active on the sell side which provided great context when dealing with sellers, and most importantly, is very kind, patient and accommodating. When we finally found the home we knew we were going to run after hard, Janis was with us every step of the way through what proved to be a process with plenty of curveballs. She was incredibly responsive to numerous texts, emails, and calls. Her recommendations and guidance were on point and ultimately we ended up with a home that we hope will help create fantastic memories and be in our family for years to come.Read more

Janis listened carefully to the characteristics of the homes and neighborhoods we were hoping to find. Due to a tight market, we all had to be patient. During this time, Janis kept us focused on our objectives and did not let us stray off track. Since we were located 4 hours away from Lake Geneva, Janis was very responsive to our multiple requests for remote “FaceTime” house viewings, as well as our last-minute requests for in-person home and condo tours. In summary, Janis proved to be a trusted advisor and helped us find what we believe will be our long-time retirement home in Lake Geneva. Thank you, Janis.Read more
