    Karen is nothing short of fantastic! The consummate professional. More importantly though, she cares about her clients as people and is focused on helping them make the best decision for their home buying or selling needs. In a world where so many real estate professionals are concerned only with transaction volume, Karen stands out.

    I hardly ever write online recommendations OR leave restaurant reviews OR comment on LinkedIn posts. However, given the sorry state of customer service in this day and age, I think everyone who needs a Realtor, should know about Karen Arenson. Karen is a world class real estate agent and her professionalism and expertise take all of the anxiety and hassle out of selling a home. I thought I knew a lot about prepping and marketing homes. Karen took our game to an even higher level. Call Karen!

    Karen helped us sell our 1914 Glencoe house in January of 2023. Karen had confidence in the value of our house. Her suggestions to prepare the house were excellent, realistic and had good payback. She also had excellent sources to get the work done quickly and at fair rates. Karen didn't hesitate to go above and beyond the call of duty to get our house sold in a difficult market, and at probably the worst time of year. We were very pleased with our results and enjoyed working with Karen!

Her suggestions to prepare the house were excellent, realistic and had good payback. She also had excellent sources to get the work done quickly and at fair rates.

    We couldn't be happier with Jennifer and her team! As first-time home sellers, Jennifer was always available to answer our (numerous) questions and helped walk us through the intricacies of the home-selling process. As sellers looking to move in a compressed time-frame, Jennifer made excellent recommendations that helped our home stand out and sell quickly. She is the first person we will call when we need to sell our next place!

  • ajy46

    Calling Jenny and her team was a great decision. Working with them was easy and they sold my home COVID BE DAMNED! I was referred to Jenny by a neighbor that had recently sold their home in the same building, from first meeting to the closing they were detailed and thorough. Would recommend Jenny and her team to anyone looking to sell their home in the city.

  • jkradtke

    This team knows how to market and sell in Chicago! Great market knowledge on pricing / competition and really skilled at marketing the key points of our property.Very responsive and accommodating as well.Highly recommended.

  • christopher svoboda2

    Jenny's extensive knowledge of the Chicago real estate market is invaluable. I have worked with Jenny to sell and purchase properties since 2011, with the most recent sale completed in April 2020. From the pre-listing guidance, pricing strategy, photography and offer navigation, the process was executed flawlessly. There is no substitute for working with a true professional that can provide sound advice on navigating a complicated real estate market. I highly recommend Jenny and look forward to working with her and her team again in the future.

    I found myself suddenly in the position of having to move to Chicago quickly from Michigan. I am not current or familiar with the market. I Called Jennifer Ames and her team at Engel Volkers Chicago. Jenny and her Team, Especially Chase Miller were open and accommodating, but MOST importantly they listened to My needs and must haves. I had 4 days to come to Chicago and look for a place to live. They were great at emailing me potential places and seeing what worked, and what did not. When I arrived I was met with Friendly, knowledgeable people. I saw many places that met all of my must haves. Narrowed the list to two, and returned with my husband to see the two. I started the process Mid September and was able to purchase and move by the end of the first week of November. I highly Recommend Chase, Jenny and the rest of the team. They were great!!!

  • zuser20150319100625219

    My partner and I decided that we wanted Jenny as our agent after having limited success with a previous agent. Jenny came in with extensive knowledge about the real estate market in general, as well as specific information pertaining to our situation. She provided numerous recommendations for vendors and the listing process was seamless. Her team communicates effectively and efficiently, always keeping us up to date on showings and feedback. We would highly recommend Jenny and her team to anyone looking for an agent.

    Sarah (who works with Jennifer) was great to work with. She was helpful and knowledgeable. The only problem was that they take a lot of time to set appointments.

  • onionskunk

    Jennifer knows her stuff. She helped us stage our Lincoln Park home and then took professional quality photography. She gave us solid advice on pricing. She was able to get a front page article about the listing in DNA Lincoln Park. And on the first day it was listed we had a showing to 8 potential buyers. By the second day we had two offers, one at the listing price. In addition to being a talented Realtor, Jennifer is a wonderful person, honest, diligent and pleasant to work with. She is supported by a professional team who were always helpful and responsive. I highly recommend her.

  • GaryKanterman

    Jennifer was really helpful in selling our house. She is very experienced and has great advice on negotiating strategy, etc. Her marketing materials and plans are top notch and her team is great to work with. We would highly-recommend her for any transaction!

    I highly recommend Jenny. She helped me buy an investment property and write a multi-year lease for an international tenant well above my mortgage cost. Several years later, she helped me profitably sell the property.
