Real Estate, Made Personal
Jasmina Zenkic
Hi, I’m Jasmina
Hi, I’m Jasmina Zenkic.
I’m a real estate agent with JEZhome, proudly working throughout the Chicagoland and surrounding area. I help families buy, sell, and rent with confidence — and without unnecessary stress.
I’m not just an agent, I’m also a homeowner and real estate investor myself, so I understand the process from both sides. I know what it’s like to make big decisions, think long-term, and balance lifestyle with smart financial choices.
I’ve been an agent for over a year, and during that time I’ve learned that no two families — or moves — are the same. That’s why I focus on listening first, staying honest, and keeping things clear and straightforward from start to finish.
Whether you’re buying your first home, moving within the Chicagoland area, or exploring your next investment, I’m here to help you feel comfortable, informed, and supported every step of the way.
Services
-
Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions your family will make, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way. I take the time to understand what matters most to you — from schools and neighborhoods to layout, budget, and long-term plans.
-
Selling a home is more than putting a sign in the yard — it’s about strategy, timing, and presenting your home in the best possible light. I work closely with you to create a clear, personalized plan that aligns with your goals and your family’s schedule.
-
Whether you’re looking for a rental that fits your family’s needs or preparing to lease out your property, I’m here to help make the process simple and straightforward.
I assist renters in finding homes in the right neighborhoods, with the right space and lifestyle fit, while guiding landlords through pricing, marketing, and tenant selection. My goal is to make sure everyone feels supported, informed, and comfortable throughout the rental process.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes. Illinois is an attorney-review state, which means buyers and sellers typically have a 5-business-day attorney review period after a contract is accepted. I work closely with experienced real estate attorneys to ensure everything stays on track.
-
Earnest money is usually 1%–3% of the purchase price, though it can vary depending on the situation. It’s typically due within a few business days after contract acceptance and is held by the listing brokerage or attorney.
-
Most Illinois transactions close within 30–45 days after attorney review is completed. Timelines can vary depending on financing, inspections, and appraisal requirements.
-
Home inspections are not required by law, but they are strongly recommended. Buyers typically have a limited inspection period to complete inspections and request repairs or credits. I help coordinate trusted inspectors and guide you through negotiations.
-
Illinois sellers must complete a Residential Real Property Disclosure Report, disclosing known material defects. Lead-based paint disclosures are also required for homes built before 1978.
-
Yes. Illinois buyers may qualify for FHA, VA, USDA, or first-time buyer assistance programs that allow low down payments. I can connect you with lenders familiar with local and state programs.
