A different way to work with an agent

You should know exactly what you're paying for

Most people never see how agent fees are set. I publish mine, explain them, and build a service plan around your home instead of a one-size-fits-all percentage.

  • Transparent, negotiable fees, all in writing before we start
  • A service plan built around your home and your goals
  • Weekly updates, clear feedback and a shared deadline calendar
  • Honest advice, even when it isn't what you hoped to hear

Client stories

What my clients say

★★★★★
“Jill was exactly what we needed as first-time sellers. She was patient, flexible, and never made us feel pressured. She was very organized and communicative, which made everything feel manageable.”
— M.S. · First-time sellers
★★★★★
“As a first-time homebuyer, I was a bit intimidated by the process. Jill was fantastic about educating and advocating for us along the way. By the end, she felt more like a family friend than just our real estate agent.”
— Frances W. · First-time buyer
★★★★★
“Simply stated: if you want a no-nonsense, go-the-extra-mile, highly communicative real estate agent, hire Jill. If she doesn't have the answer to a question, she will find that answer.”
