ELEVATED LISTING EXPERIENCE
Creating an elevated listing experience with the JProctor Group as your real estate team involves several key steps designed to ensure a seamless, efficient, and successful home-selling process.
Initial Consultation
The first step in your journey with the JProctor Group is an initial consultation. During this meeting, we will discuss your goals, timeline, and any specific needs or concerns you may have. The team will perform a comprehensive review of your property, including its features and condition to develop a strategic plan tailored to your home.
“Jeff is the strongest and most professional real estate broker that I have had the pleasure to work with. His knowledge and communication are unsurpassed in the industry.”
P.V.
Pricing
Pricing a property in today’s competitive real estate market requires a strategic and informed approach. After a thorough analysis of your home, the JProctor Group will put together a comprehensive market analysis and evaluation. Our pricing analysis will take into consideration many factors including supply and demand, market activity and time, property features and condition, area competition, location and area amenities. By considering these elements, we ensure that our pricing strategy is not only competitive but also tailored to maximize the appeal and value of your home.
Home Preparation and Staging
“Jeff was invaluable to us in the sale of our home. In a dynamic, changing market, he helped us navigate the process with ease. He executed the sale flawlessly, handled all of the details, and ensured we got the maximum value for our home. He’s responsive, friendly, and a pleasure to work with.” E
To maximize and enhance your home’s appeal, the JProctor Group offers expert advice on home preparation and staging. We will provide recommendations on decluttering, repairs, and enhancements that will make your property more attractive to potential buyers. The JProctor Group also has in-house experts that will assist in staging your home with your items along with some of our essentials. If full staging services are required, we can coordinate with professional stagers to ensure your home looks its best. The JProctor Group will also provide you with moving boxes to help you as you get ready for the next chapter. We also maintain a comprehensive list of preferred contractors, vendors, and handymen to assist you with any additional needs.
“Jeff did a great job selling our home. Has a very in-depth knowledge of the market and provided us with quality comps helping us to properly price our home. Personally helped us prep the home for photos and provided resources for touchups and repairs prior to listing and sale. Highly recommend.”
Professional Photography & Video
Photos are the first impression your home makes on a prospective buyer, and they have the power to sell a property. Working with industry-leading VHT Studios, The JProctor Group includes in our listing package, professional photography, virtual tours, floor plans and possibly even drone footage to showcase your home in its best light. We will arrange and oversee the sessions with our preferred photographers to ensure the highest of quality.
OUR LISTING VIDEO PROGRAM CONSISTS OF:
• A full-length property video with highlights of the home, amenities and neighborhood or suburb
• A social media-friendly clip that can be shared on Facebook, Instagram and other sites
• A Zillow walk-through video
• Additional exposure through @properties’ listing detail pages, video library, YouTube channel, social media accounts and syndication websites
• All videos are produced and edited in-house by the @properties’ videography department to cater specifically to the clients we serve.
Go to Market Strategy
Once your home is ready and the high-end brochures are prepared the JProctor Group will list your property. Based on timing of the market, we will either plan to utilize the PLN (private listing network), TAN (Top Agent Network), @properties Intranet and other off market resources to market and schedule private showings accordingly. This will allow us to test the market prior to hitting the full MLS and minimize market time as well.
We will manage all showings in person, ensuring they are scheduled at convenient times and that your home is presented impeccably to potential buyers. We will ask for and deliver feedback in a timely manner as we stay in constant contact with you.
“Jeff and his team created an ideal experience for our home sale. Together we worked to price the home, showcase the home and sell the home for an ideal amount. He provided top notch service by using a photographer and videographer who showed our home online with stellar quality, drawing many to see in person. He held open houses to create windows for many showings. He always gave us plenty of time before a requested showing to prepare our home, and then leave for the prospective buyers to walk through at their own pace. Jeff helped us consider offers with our needs in mind, and helped guide us with strategic decisions. As a result, we sold quickly and for our asking price to someone who truly valued our home! We are very pleased with Jeff and his team.” N
Receiving and Negotiating Offers
As offers come in, the JProctor Group will present and review each one with you, providing expert advice on how to handle them. We will negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get the best possible price and terms, keeping your best interests in mind throughout the process.
Closing
From contract to close, having the most skilled and attentive guidance is paramount. Once an offer is accepted, the JProctor Group will guide you through the closing process. We will coordinate with all parties involved, including inspectors, appraisers, and attorneys, to ensure all necessary paperwork is completed and deadlines are met. Our goal is to make the closing process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
“I’ve used Jeff for all my real estate transactions for the last 10 years. He knows the Chicago market better than anyone else. He’s a tough negotiator and always got me the right price (on both ends of the transaction). Jeff’s got a great team and I highly recommend his services.”
Z.W.
“Very smooth and uneventful process from outreach to close! The team took on all of the workload and kept us well informed throughout the process. Any recommendations we asked for were quickly provided and were 100% spot on! I would happily and confidently recommend Jeff and the team to anyone in the market to buy or sell property!”

Since 2003 Jeff has been working with buyers, sellers and developments in a wide array of areas within Chicago, Western Suburbs and Northshore. This has developed him into one of the top agents in the Chicago area. At over $925,000,000 in sales, Jeff has been able to fully advise his clients through all real estate matters. Over the past 12 years he has consistently ranked in the top 1% of Chicago Association of REALTOR®s and has produced over $450,000,000 in sales over the past seven years alone (2013-2023). Patience and a wealth of experience and knowledge in all areas of Chicago real estate have established him as a Top Broker/ Consultant in the industry.
His main focus is the Chicago market due to his past work on larger developments and the clients he has amassed while living and working downtown for 13 years. Yet with moving his family to nearby Elmhurst he has opened up his markets to the Western Suburbs (Elmhurst, Hinsdale, Glen Ellyn, Western Springs, Clarendon Hills and surrounding areas), plus with the expansion of his team also is supporting the Northshore (Evanston, Wilmette, Kenilworth, Glencoe and Winnetka). Over the past 4 years has increased his business 30% with the addition of the Western Suburb and Northshore clientele.
We had a great experience working with Kim to sell our condo in Chicago! She was extremely resourceful, communicative and helped us throughout our entire selling process. She had great ideas to help improve our place in order to maximize the return on our investment. I would highly recommend working with Kim and her team!
I received Kim’s contact from a very good friend whose recommendations I would trust without question. Working with Kim has reaffirmed that. She is extremely patient, efficient, and personable. She never left us hanging/her follow-up was exemplary. As first-time home buyers, she made us feel very comfortable throughout the process. I would highly recommend working with Kim!!
Working with Kim and her team was an absolute dream! From the first day where she came and walked me through the process, to the day of closing, it felt more like working with a friend than a REALTOR®. She was extremely knowledgeable, had the best resources and materials prepared for my house, and made the whole process so easy! She held amazing open houses and got the house under contract for over asking (and we priced it high!) in just a month! She was so easy to work with, accommodating (would deal with my dog if I wasn’t home and she had a showing or inspection!), and was just all around wonderful. Cannot say enough good things, sell your house with Kim!!!
BRADY
Sarah’s experience in the Chicago real estate market, her familiarity with the construction and development process, and her commitment to and advocacy for her clients was invaluable to us as first-time home buyers!!
Sarah did a fantastic job selling out the development park side of old town and maintained the value of the properties in a down market.
Sarah successfully sold out our multiple development projects and maintained the value of the units when the market took a turn for the worse
Dear Carolyn I wanted to thank you for all the hard work you’ve done for me on our Bucktown property that you sold for us. I know it was a challenging sale and once again you didn’t disappoint. You have handled several properties for myself and referrals over the years and we always are pleased at the level of your professional approach and details. Looking forward to working
I am pleased and blessed with my experience with Carolyn Landis. She was the most professional and kindest REALTOR®. Carolyn went above and beyond and I am so thankful for everything she has done for me. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Our attorney referred Carolyn Landis to help us purchase our first home. She held our hand through every step of the process. We hired Carolyn again to sell our home and help us find our forever home in the suburbs. We always highly recommend Carolyn Landis.
NATALIIA GABRYK
Nataliia was recently my agent as I was trying to find a new renter for my unit in River North. She was extremely diligent throughout the process and treated my 1 BR unit like a multi million dollar listing by being extremely responsive to all emails, phone calls, and showings. She also worked directly with the condo association and management agency saving me a lot of time and energy and only contacting me when necessary. Further, she had a professional photographer take photos of the unit which definitely helped traffic and had my unit listed on multiple realty sivtes and of course MLS. I’d hire her again in a minute and would recommend to anyone in Chicago looking to buy, sell, or rent to contact Nataliia ASAP if you want top notch professional service and an agent that will work tirelessly on your behalf. Oh yeah, and she’s a very nice person!
“
Nataliia is an exceptional REALTOR®! Her attention to detail is unmatched, and she always responded quickly to my questions. Throughout the entire process, she maintained a high level of professionalism and was constantly working to find me the perfect spot. Highly recommend Nataliia for anyone in need of a dedicated REALTOR®! “
Hiring an excellent REALTOR® can make a substantial difference when searching for a new home. If you’re considering working with Nataliia Gabryk, we highly recommend her! Our experience with her was truly exceptional. Nataliia was patient and took the time to understand our needs. She proved to be a great REALTOR®, helping us achieve our goals. We would recommend Nataliia to anyone looking for an outstanding REALTOR®.
DONNA GELMANOVICH Broker
Donna defines “The Extra Mile”! Donna made my first home buying journey a tremendously straightforward experience from start to finish. Great team, wonderful communication, answers for every question, and established relationships with great folks. One wonderful home later I can say that it was a flawless and turbulence free process thanks to Donna. Couldn’t be happier!
Donna Gelmanovich was instrumental in selling my house and finding my next place to live. She was responsive and actively helped take care of every detail in the process. Donna worked around my schedule and made it easy to see new properties. And at the same time, she helped me get my house ready for a quick, low-stress sale. I highly recommend Donna and her team at the JProctor Group.
Donna Gelmanovich is hands down, THE partner you want on your side of the table. As a first-time homeowner (now), the process of buying a property sounded scary & truly overwhelming to me until I met with Donna! She has all the cross-functional industry knowledge you need, the network to make anything happen (& happen quickly) but most importantly she & her team will go above & beyond to truly understand your needs & unique situation, guiding you through each step of the way with clarity, trust & your best interest at hand, making the process smoother & remarkable! Thank you to all the team behind Donna, highly recommend!!
“
Karri was phenomenal. We honestly weren’t planning on selling our home but after speaking with Karri and going through the data she collected about comparable homes, she was confident that we could sell our home for an amount necessary for us to move. She did great work with photography, material/flyer/brochure printing, listing description and Open Houses. She did not give up and was very reassuring through the entire process and extremely available via phone, text, and email. I cant imagine working with anyone other than Karri in the future. “
My husband and I were renting and trying to find our forever home, after finding a house we really liked and having the lending fall through Karri went above and beyond and found us a lender that could help us with our situation. We were able to find a home that is perfect for our family and she made the buying process an awesome experience. We were able to close within 45 days and couldn’t have done it without her. I would definitely recommend Karri to anyone looking for their next home, she is an excellent agent and makes every step of the buying process easy and enjoyable!!
I had the best experience working with Kari. She showed me exactly what I was looking for, she was very flexible with my schedule since I was living in the city commuting back to the suburbs to view homes. Purchasing a home while dealing with mortgage companies can be stressful, but Karri was wonderful, she took the stress away in working out any issues I was having. She’s the best and I will definitely call on her for any future real estate plans.
TESTIMONIALS
WHAT ARE MY CLIENTS SAYING?
“
Jeff was extremely knowledgeable about the general Chicago metro market…as well as our particular neighborhood. We also appreciated the team he brought with him who were very helpful at all steps in the process. Best of all, we accepted a list price offer the first day we listed. “
Jeff came very highly recommended by my sister and brother in law who have utilized his expertise for years in Downtown Chicago so when I was ready to buy a condo, I immediately reached out. Jeff is super responsive and is an expert in the field. I had many very specific “must-haves” and a tight timeline. He listened to what I wanted and totally delivered. He has a ton of reliable contacts and was able to get me quotes for potential changes/ upgrades I wanted to get done before my closing even occurred. I would recommend him without any reservations to all of my family and friends. “
Jeff is a total professional and is great representation in all types of market segments in multiple different marketplaces. From the first step of the buying process till you are in escrow, you are in good hands with JProctor Real Estate. Thanks for the great service, Jeff! “
Jeff is very professional and make the process easy for the homeowner/buyer. He was always on time for appointments, negotiated well with other agents or always followed up with emails. Simply he more than got the job done. He would always have a coffee for us for those morning appointments as well. I have had several positive experiences with Jeff over the years and highly recommend him and his services!
Jeff was awesome. His knowledge of the market, correct pricing, plus his responsiveness to anything that came up was outstanding. He utilizes all the newest digital and social media tools to market his homes and we had constant showings. One of the best!
Before retiring, I spent over 35 years practicing real estate law and, in that capacity, dealt with countless real estate agents. I and other members of my family have worked with Jeff over many years and on several transactions, including purchases, sales, and leases. In each case, Jeff has been an invaluable help in getting to the finish line. In my opinion, you would be making a mistake if you fail to discuss your real estate needs with Jeff before selecting an agent. “
Jeff helped find our dream home in Elmhurst! He was amazing to work with and so knowledgeable. We bombarded him with questions, and he always was very prompt/honest/thorough. You won’t find a better Agent to work with than Jeff!
“
Jeff and his team are very professional. They always showed up on-time and ready to answer all questions. He helped us navigate a tricky closing. Would definitely recommend him to other buyers/ sellers in the area.
“
Jeff was very knowledgeable and made the home buying process easy. He went above and beyond consistently during search, during the negotiation and attorney review, and after we purchased the home. He also had a very good network of professionals in related fields (legal, contractor, mortgage, etc) which proved to be very important. I would HIGHLY recommend using Jeff. 10/10.
“
Jeff is a true Real Estate Professional through and through. He is extremely knowledgeable in the Luxury market. He is honest and easy to work with. He works closely with his Buyers and Sellers by listening to exactly what they want. He prides himself on finding their dream house while making it hassle free. I am honored to be connected to Jeff through our strong global company REALM. I know I can refer my high end clients to him and they will be in good hands with a Top Producer. I highly recommend Jeff. Don’t miss the opportunity to work with him!
Jeff was very helpful throughout the entire sales process. Was able to manage expectations and provide thoughtful suggestions along the way. We had a roller coaster of time trying to sell our home (no fault to Jeff) and Jeff was there every step of the way to do anything he could. T
Jeff is very professional and has tons of knowledge about real estate and homes in general. He asked other REALTORS® all the right questions that we didn’t even think to ask. He was very responsive and gave us great advise while we were bidding
In all our dealings we have had a very positive experience and extremely professional. Everything we were instructed to do was followed up on in a very positive way. We would gladly refer a friend or neighbor
Jeff met with me to explain the process and set a timeline. He met all the deadlines and answered all questions. Jeff was very knowledgeable and responsive throughout the entire process. His negotiations skills were key in getting the most out of my listing. I accepted an offer after about 20 days after listing. His staff was very attentive, too “
Jeff found me a great condo in my desired price range completely updated and made sure the closing was done in a timely manner. Brought in his own legal team and cleaning crew to make sure the place was move-in ready.

Jeff was great in helping us find a home in Glen Ellyn. He knows the market, locations, and what to look out for and what not to look out for in the area. He also expertly navigated the negotiation process with us and was able land on a fair price and help get any inspection items taken care of. It was all very straightforward with Jeff. “
Jeff was an expert at understanding the market, changing conditions and pricing strategy. In our case the pandemic had a significant impact on buyer attitudes due to elongated summer vacations. We moved the price and market availability to keep the home fresh on the market and to retriever internet searches. It worked. “
In a low inventory real estate market in the West Loop, Jeff got me an off listed condo unit that met all the things I was looking for in a place for below my budget. The transaction went smoothly with Jeff’s team taking care of the majority of the admin/ paperwork. He was very knowledgeable of the area with insights on potential future developments that may affect the property value. I highly recommend Jeff and will work with him again in the future “
Jeff went above and beyond with showings and negotiations and is even helping us coordinate some work being done after the close. Would highly recommend to anybody. “

“
This is my second time working with Jeff and, in both instances, he has been exceedingly knowledgeable, fair, honest, and easy to work with. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for an agent in Chicago. “
Jeff is an outstanding broker and business partner. He helped guide us through the buying process, stayed involved with the project through the closing and worked with the builder to ensure timely delivery. I would recommend Jeff to anyone purchasing a home in the Chicagoland area. “
Jeff and his team helped make my first experience purchasing a home very pleasant. His attention to my needs and knowledge of the market are what stood out to me the most. “
Not only is Jeff is a professional in all aspects of the business, but he was patient and always had my family’s best interests in mind. It was a pleasure to work with Jeff and to get to know him.
Jeff is a true professional who gives sound advice and understands the ever changing dynamic market he is working with. “
Jeff and his team were very knowledgeable about the market and area. Being a first-time home buyer, he helped explain the process and was very strong when it came to negotiating the offer. “
Jeff has the qualities you look for in a REALTOR®® - honest, knowledgeable, and accessible. He never tried to push us into a property, and he always took us to properties even though he knew from the listing it wasn’t for us. We can’t recommend him enough. He is who we will buy all our future properties with, period.

OUR STORY
Unique from the start.
It all began in Chicago in the mid-1990s, when Mike Golden and Thad Wong met at a small brokerage firm and quickly became the city’s top-selling real estate agents. Despite their tremendous success, they recognized the need for better service and support for both agents and clients. So in 2000, the duo set out on their own to establish @properties.
Combining cutting-edge technology with upscale marketing, the firm quickly became a driving force in Chicago real estate and beyond.

homeselling tips 101 SELLER’S GUIDE
GETTING STARTED
A real estate agent is an indispensable partner in both the home buying and selling process. To get started, we will meet to talk about your home and the many resources I can offer to help you accomplish your real estate goals. If you’re ready to move forward, we will sign a listing agreement.
PRICING YOUR HOME TO SELL
To determine an accurate list price that will help you achieve the most lucrative and time-efficient sale, I will perform a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) with @properties’ proprietary Digital CMA. Using real-time data from the local Multiple Listing Service (MLS), this technology evaluates comparable properties relative to your home sale, taking into account variables like location, property features, market conditions, and other criteria.
PREPARING YOUR HOME FOR THE MARKET
Now is the time to declutter and get organized so your home will be in tip-top shape for photos, open houses, and showings. Many homes also benefit from staging, which can be as simple as rearranging a few pieces of furniture or as elaborate as hiring a professional stager.
MARKETING GAME PLAN
Today, first showings occur online, and making the best first impression of your home includes digital marketing resources like professional photography, an interactive floor plan, a virtual walkthrough, and a listing video. I will work with you on scheduling appointments. Additionally, I will provide a customized marketing plan that is tailored to your home. @properties offers a variety of award-winning marketing programs that showcase your home before the largest audience of potential buyers.
WANT EXPOSURE PRIOR TO LISTING YOUR HOME ON THE MLS?
@properties can deliver thousands of eyeballs via exclusive pre-market apps such as the agent @pp and Zenlist. More exposure means more page views and showing requests, and that ultimately helps yield a shorter market time and higher sales price.
ON THE MARKET
Unless noted otherwise, your property will go on the local MLS and will automatically be distributed to a number of real estate websites such as Zillow, Trulia, and REALTOR®.com.
OFFERS & NEGOTIATIONS
In many real estate transactions, there is a fair amount of negotiation—offers and counteroffers—before both parties are satisfied. As soon as we receive an offer, I will present it to you and advise you on the best course of action.
EARNEST MONEY
Once you accept an offer, the buyer will submit an initial earnest money deposit to be held by@properties in an escrow account. This secures the contract until closing and demonstrates that the buyer is serious about the transaction.
ATTORNEY REVIEW
The Attorney Review period allows attorneys for both the buyer and the seller to review the contract and negotiate modifications. Buyers can also request repairs that arise out of the home inspection, which generally happens during the same timeframe. The purchase agreement will specify how many days each party has for the attorney review.
THE APPRAISAL
If the buyer is obtaining bank financing, the bank will order an appraisal, which is an opinion of your home’s value. Unlike a CMA, an appraisal is performed by a licensed appraiser who must follow a number of established guidelines.
FINAL WALKTHROUGH
The final walkthrough allows the buyer to examine your home to make sure it is in the same condition it was in when they agreed to purchase it. This typically occurs after you have moved your belongings out of the home, at a specified time before the closing.
CLOSING DATE (THE FINISH LINE!)
During the closing, all of the necessary paperwork is completed, closing costs are paid, and ownership changes hands. I will work closely with you and the other parties to ensure everything is in place for a smooth and efficient closing. Sellers generally do not attend the closing.
12. CLOSING
homeselling tips 101 BUYER’S GUIDE
Your attorney and I will be at the closing to walk you through each and every document and answer any questions you may have. Ownership will be transferred to you and you’ll get keys to your new home!

Typically the day before or morning of closing, we do a final walk through that lasts 15 minutes to make sure everything is in the condition you first saw it in and previously requested repairs were made.
10. CLEAR TO CLOSE
Lender has cleared all theconditions and is now ready to go to closing.
9. SECURE PROPERTY INSURANCE
Homeowners or condo insurance is necessary and it compensates you for losses to your home and your possessions inside it.
8. UNDERWRITING & PAPERWORK

1. GET PRE-APPROVED

7. APPRAISAL
Lender will arrange for an appraiser to provide an independent opinion of the value of the property.
2. SET UP A SEARCH ONLINE
I will customize a search for you, pulling the most upto-date information available on the internet from the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), the central database for all real estate information.
3. PRIVATE SHOWINGS
Once you find interested properties, I will schedule a day and time to go for a private tour.
4. SUBMIT AN OFFER
Once you find a property you love, we will write up an offer. I will pull comparable properties to determine an offer price. This can be done over the phone, in person or by email with DocuSign.
5. HOME INSPECTION
Offers are typically contingent on a homeinspection of the property by a licensed professional to check for signs of structural damage or things that may need fixing.
6. ATTORNEY REVIEW
Attorneys for each party review the contract and make suggestions for changes to protect their clients.
