For me, real estate isn't just a job it's a delight. I love nothing more than helping people find the homes to house their dreams and get quick, lucrative offers for selling properties. I strive to offer the personalized, results-oriented attention you'll be hard-pressed to get from bigger, commercialized agents.

Insider Experience: A full-time Realtor since 2003, I'm a resident of Lincoln Square with an intimate knowledge of the local neighborhoods and market trends.

Education: To stay abreast of the ever-changing industry trends and technologies, I invest in continuing self-education and training, and also keep up with the latest trade publications and market reports.

Credentials: I'm proud to have earned the status of Accredited Buyer Representative(ABR). Awarded by the National Association of Realtors, this designation is the benchmark of excellence in buyer representation. I'm also a Certified Residential Specialist (CRS), a prestigious ranking given to only 5% of the most rigorously trained, highly ethical, and top-performing Realtors in the United States. In addition, I'm an Accredited Staging Professional(ASP), making me uniquely qualified to get your home aesthetically primed to sell.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS:

"Chris and I knew at the time we put the condo up for sale that it was going to be a hard sell owing to market conditions. I have to say, it was purely your determination, hard work and knowledge of the market and key drivers that sold the condo within the right timeframe for us to buy our target home. Your advice regarding the staging of our condo was extremely effective and we were not short of compliments regarding the show home condition. Thanks for everything - we look forward to using you again in the future!" 
-Julie and Chris, Lincoln Park

"My wife Bridget and I highly recommend Kelli as a Realtor in the city of Chicago. Bridget and I were lucky to have found Kelli at an Open House in February of 2005. We had been walking through Open Houses as we prepared to buy our first condo in the city when we met Kelli. Immediately, Kelli was friendly, professional and really went the "extra mile" to gain our trust and confidence. This ultimately "won" our business in finding our first condo.
Kelli worked diligently with us as we made our way through the buying process really consulting with us every step of the way. Kelli was above all else honest. She knew as soon as we walked into a condo whether or not it was "the one" for us. Once we had found our condo Kelli's dedication didnt end. She worked with us right up through the close making sure she answered any and all of our questions. Her follow up was truly stellar!
For all of the reasons above, we called Kelli immediately when we knew we would be relocating out of the state and had to sell our condo 2 years later in May of 2007. Once again, Kelli's professionalism came shining through. She had a detailed and comprehensive plan on selling our condo. Kellis attention to detail and recommendations on staging our condo for sale were really invaluable. So invaluable, that Im happy to say we sold our condo in 14 days! We give 100% of the credit to this quick sale to Kellis focus, fast pace, and understanding of the real estate market.
In summary, we highly recommend Kelli Johannesen as a realtor in the city of Chicago. Her professionalism, honesty, market knowledge, and overall great attitude will really make the home buying or selling process a great experience!"
-Matt & Bridget, Lakeview

Kelli was a joy to work with and very motivated to not only fine me a home but to make sure it fit the criteria that I was looking for. She was also very helpful throughout the process. This was my first home so every step of the way was new to me.  She provided information, suggestions and advice every step of the way. Kelli was very patient with me and understood that being my first home I wanted to be 100% comfortable with my purchase. I've already passed Kelli's information to friends that may be looking soon. She's great.

We dealt with a number of realtors in our home buying process, and Kelli really stood out in how hard she worked for us.  She did a great job selling our place (suggesting ways to get our place ready to show, lots of open houses and following up with people who came by, answering all of questions).  Give her a call!

 

Kim and Aaron, South Loop

 

Kelli did a great job making me feel comfortable with the whole first time home buying experience.  I was doing this process on my own and she gave me a lot of support!

 

Heidi, Lakeview

 

Kelli was absolutely fantastic!  We were first time buyers and she could not have made the process any easier for us.

 

Jed and Angela, Lakeview

 

Kelli was incredibly helpful in both selling our loft and helping with the purchase of our new house.  She was very considerate of our situation in dealing with our six month old son.  She always showed up a bit early to make sure there were no dishes out and toys were put away.  She also called immediately to let us know when the appointment was done and we were free to return home.

 

We were living in the West Loop and didn’t know a lot about the north side.  Kelli drove us through every neighborhood.  She showed us schools, parks, grocery stores, etc.  Her knowledge made us much more comfortable in such a big move.  We eventually found a wonderful house in a neighborhood we love.

 

We have told many friends about Kelli, I highly recommend working with her.

 

Todd and Sara, Lincoln Square
