Broker Associate

Ed Jelinek
With nearly three decades of experience in the Chicago real estate market, I have a deep understanding of its cycles and trends, having successfully navigated through major economic shifts and countless fads since 1998. My career is marked by consistent top-producing accolades, including being the #1 agent in my office for multiple years, but my true focus lies in building trusting relationships and serving as a dedicated advocate for my clients. While I am an expert in luxury, new developments, and relocation, my ultimate goal is to help you achieve your dreams, whether that's finding the perfect home or getting the best price for your current one. My highest honor is not my professional awards, but the trust and friendship of the clients I’ve had the privilege of serving.
