Client Testimonials for Jan Morel

Read what others have to say about their experiences working with Jan Morel to buy or sell their home in Clarendon Hills. Did you have a great experience working with Jan Morel? We want to hear about it!  Here are a few testimonials from clients:

"We used Jan for both listing our home and purchasing our new home. From the listing side, he was instrumental in suggestions for preparing our home to list, follow up on ANY showing, and marketing our home to a variety of buyers. On the purchase end, Jan was always available to quickly see homes we  desired, provide honest feedback if the home would suit our needs, and worked diligently to negotiate the best price possible."

"My wife and I hired Jan to purchase a home in Western Springs and he was fantastic.  His knowledge of La Grange, WS and Elmhurst is excellent.  He was always prompt, well organized and professional.  Because of specific needs for a house and schools our search was extensive and long.  Jan's effort  was as strong at the end of the search as his effort to start.  With the school year approaching he found the time for us to find a house before any deadlines.  When we realized our "ideal" house did not exist, Jan's experience and understanding of our needs was an excellent asset in evaluating the pros and cons of our choices.

I believe what separates Jan from other agents is his previous success in engineering.  He has the ability to evaluate possible house projects or potential building/land issues on the spot.  In addition, success in engineering requires a level of intelligence and a work ethic not easily found in real estate.  Finally, while always professional, Jan completes his work with a fervor and intensity that directly benefits his clients.  In our case Jan 1) quickly negotiated a price 10k lower than our final figure 2) correctly convinced us to withdraw a bid when he sensed the owner was trying to start a bidding war (that Elmhurst house was still contingent well after school started and sold above list price) 3) successfully and timely closed on our purchase in our favor when the sellers did not ready the house properly for a close.  The best way to describe Jan's ability is that at several open houses we encountered listing agents who knew of Jan and his successful reputation without ever meeting him.  His unprecedented quick rise to one of, if not the top agent in Clarendon Hills/Hinsdale after a career change speaks for itself."

"My wife and I needed to downsize our beautiful home in Clarendon Hills. Over two years we tried to sell with two different agents.  On the recommendations from neighbors we called Jan Morel.  They told us of his knowledge and love of Clarendon Hills and his high energy.  Jan sold our home within a  month from his initial visit to our home.  He was personal, supportive and knowledgeable.  His wife Shannon helped stage our home in a positive non-evasive way.  Jan continued to work closely through ALL stages of the sale even giving us an excellent recommendations to local lawyers.  We hired one who was excellent and reasonable in her fees.

Jan Morel was even more helpful in our purchasing our next home.  We were all over the place and he worked with us almost every day as we narrowed our selection.  I can't remember how many homes he personally took us to.  We found our perfect home, even closer to our grandchildren!  His co-worked Linda was also helpful in bringing us back for second and third visits.  My wife couldn't offer a higher recommendation to this honest, knowledgeable,  personable, and responsive man."

Richard, Hinsdale

"My husband and I recently downsized selling our home in Clarendon Hills and purchasing a smaller home in Glen Ellyn. Jan handled both the sale of purchase of these homes. We sold at a time when very few homes in our price range were selling and I am certain that Jan was the reason for our success.

Jan's knowledge of Clarendon Hills and network of connections in the real estate industry was instrumental in these transactions. Most successful agents in our area do not have time to devote personal attention to their clients. That was not the case with Jan. He attended all of our house showings and took us personally to most of the viewing we requested. His co-worker Linda who accompanied us on the other occasions was also a joy to work with. You could not find a more professional, attentive or personable realtor. Jan was superb."
