Jodi O'Malley - J Collective Homes - Brokered by REAL Broker LLC

Fantastic experience: I was homeless until she drove by and threw a brick of money at my head so I could by a house. W realtor!

Fantastic experience: Our experience using Jodi for the purchase of our home was stellar! She is extremely knowledgeable about the area and market and just a very kind and pleasant person in general. She went above and beyond for us in so many ways, I would recommend her to anyone!

Fantastic experience: You will not find a better Realtor than Jodi! My husband and I moved to Champaign from Texas and Jodi was recommended to us by a colleague. We could not have had a better experience with her from start to finish. A cross-country move is quite stressful and every step of the way Jodi alleviated so many pain points for us. We had an initial meeting with her over zoom about what we were looking for in a house and what we desired in a neighborhood and surrounding areas. We obviously knew very little about the area going in and she took such great time explaining the different areas to us and what we could expect out of each one. We planned a trip to Champaign to look at houses and the way Jodi set everything up for us was so meticulous and thoughtful. We had expected to make more than one trip to Champaign for the house hunt but she helped us find the perfect house for us on the first visit! The house we ended up purchasing had a water backup prior to closing that resulted in a half bath needing to be gutted and repaired, which was extremely stressful for us being so far away, but Jodi went above and beyond for us during this time and oversaw so much. There was a lot that went on behind the scenes with different parties and Jodi really seemed to take care of all the stressful parts for us and she was so positive and reassuring during this time, my husband and I kept saying “this would be a nightmare without Jodi!” She also made closing fun and such a breeze – she even took care of our dog for us while we waited on paperwork and we were so thankful for that. She is very thoughtful and caring and there were countless gestures from her that made us feel so special and valued by her. She is genuinely such a gem of a human being and we could not be more grateful to have had her guidance throughout our move. We would use her time and time again.

Fantastic experience: We’ve worked with many real estate agents over the years while buying and selling homes, and working with Jodi was by far the best experience we’ve ever had. She truly understood what we were looking for, paid close attention to every detail, and expertly guided us through every step of the negotiation process. She caught things we would have never noticed and helped us navigate challenges. Having an agent who is exceptional with contracts and negotiations is invaluable, and so rare these days. Jodi’s knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail gave us complete peace of mind throughout the entire process. We’re incredibly grateful for her expertise, and we wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for an outstanding Realtor!

Fantastic experience: We absolutely loved working with Jodi to buy our first home! Not only did she make everything go smoothly, we truly believe it was because of her that we got the house we wanted that was in a competitive market. She is detail oriented and also thoughtful and kind. It felt like we were working with someone who was already our friend the first day we met. We will be recommending working with her to all of our friends and family!

Fantastic experience: We’ve worked with Jodi and Joanna multiple times, and we’ll always choose them for buying or selling our homes. They lead with heart, truly love what they do, and care deeply about the people they serve. Their value-added services, attention to detail, and ability to handle both the big and small tasks take all the stress out of the process. They make everything feel easy, supported, and seamless. We’re so grateful for them and couldn’t recommend them more.

Fantastic experience: Jodi is hands down the BEST realtor!! There is no one else who genuinely cares about your family the way she does. I thought we could handle a FSBO because we “just wanted to move down the street” but without Jodi we could have never navigated simultaneously buying our new home and selling our old home. She communicated seamlessly and quickly with us and the other parties and had relationships that she leveraged to ensure we we received the best price, every detail was given attention in the contracts and to top it off we had so much fun! Jodi is a joy to be around and radiates positivity. The process of buying/selling can be hard, but Jodi makes it painless and enjoyable. The care she puts into making her clients feel appreciated is unmatched as well. The thoughtful gifts, special events and simple texts checking in make it obvious she cares about you and wants the best for her clients. 10/10 recommend Jodi and her team!!! She will not stop until you’re beyond satisfied. ♥️♥️♥️

Fantastic experience: Jodi is amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure we found our perfect home. She helped us long before we made it to Illinois by showing us homes via video! Couldn’t ask for a better realtor, she’s a class act.

Fantastic experience: Jodi is Champaign’s greatest hidden treasure—she is the most incredible real estate agent you will ever meet! From the very first meeting, we knew we had to go with Jodi. She is charismatic and warm, and she treated us like family, becoming highly attuned to all our needs and desires. And from that point on, she took on our home search with as much care and attention (and excitement) as if it was her own. Even as first time homebuyers, we had so much confidence because of Jodi. She broke down the whole process, explained each step, and helped us through the entire journey. She was available around the clock, always quick to respond, always warm and happy to help with each new question that came to mind. She spoke honestly and candidly with us, giving us so much valuable advice and feedback, including what things to look for and ask for. She clearly valued us and it was obvious she wanted to help us find the perfect home for our family. And Jodi has so much expertise in this area! She is very attuned to the local market, the trends, highly connected to the local community, and has the inside scoop on EVERYTHING (her connections and methods work like magic)! There’s really so much more I could say. I will just say that Jodi went above and beyond in every way!

Fantastic experience: Jodi was an absolute treasure, and helped us find our first home in Urbana. We had total confidence in her from our first meeting, and managed to find our dream home and put in an offer very quickly. We would recommend her and J Collective Homes to anyone!

Fantastic experience: Jodi is simply amazing. Because of her care and attention, we were able to navigate the complicated process of selling our home and buying our new home with so much confidence. From the first time we met, Jodi truly listened to our needs and preferences and really got to know each one of us, even including what our children had to say. From that point forward, she focused on what our family needed and offered expert guidance to ensure it all worked out. She was patient with us, accessible when we needed her and communicated with us every step of the way, ensuring we understood and felt comfortable with each part of the process. Her attention to detail was remarkable, and most importantly, it was clear that she genuinely cared about our family and wanted what was best for us. We are so grateful for Jodi and wholeheartedly recommend her!

Fantastic experience: I reached out to Jodi in 2021 with plans to purchase my first home. She was so patient with me as I walked through a very overwhelming process of buying a home at 23 years old. She talked me through everything and never pressured me into purchasing something. We found the most amazing condo and it is perfect for me and my fiancé. I recommend Jodi to anyone looking to sell or buy and I look forward to using her expertise again in the future. You truly cannot go wrong.

Fantastic experience: Jodi is the most genuine and conscientious realtor out there! She makes sure to understand each of her client's individual needs and provides all kinds of helpful information throughout the buying and selling process. Jodi was able to sell my home for me at full asking price, in less than 2 weeks without the house even officially being on the market. She knew I needed a longer closing and made sure and brought in a buyer that was able to accommodate that need. Jodi's attention to detail and her ability to make her client's feel like her friends is what sets her apart. I felt like she wanted what was best for me and my family and had complete trust in all of her advice. I'm thankful to have worked with her over the years and will definitely call her again the next time I am ready to buy or sell.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Jodi O'Malley - J Collective Homes - REAL Broker, LLC for your realtor. We moved to the area last summer from out of state, and the experience was a dream. Jodi took all of our needs for a home into account and went above and beyond in her search for us so we could move quickly. Her detailed buying guide she provided to us for free was so helpful, and she really took into account all of our must-haves, wants, and dreams for our home. She nailed them all. She has so many local connections and great relationships with other realtors, we were able to be the first ones to see our house before it was listed and she got our offer accepted before it hit the market. I truly don’t think that would have happened without her! She was also present for the inspection because I was not yet in town, and worked to get things corrected with the sellers agent before closing. Again, so much thought and detail because she knew I wasn’t going to be here until closing day. It was the most seamless out of state move we’ve ever had.

Fantastic experience: I was a first-time home buyer, and Jodi was so helpful walking me through everything and making the entire process enjoyable. Can’t recommend enough!

Fantastic experience: We didn’t know Jodi before we asked her to help us sell our home. She did a phenomenal job.

I’m confident that we sold our home for more than what we would have if we would have used someone else.

The marketing for the condo was especially spectacular. I highly recommend Jodi if you are looking to sell and don’t want to deal with any of the hassle.

Fantastic experience: I knew that Jodi was amazing at her job, but she exceeded all of my expectations. She helped me purchase a commercial building for my future business and walked along side me the entire way. It wasn’t the easiest path to get to the closing date; however, she always remained professional, extremely diligent, persistent, calm, and positive. Her attention to detail, strong work ethic, excellent communication skills, and passion for real estate and people are what make her really stand out. She genuinely cares about the people she represents, and you can feel that. I would highly recommend her over and over again. I’m so very grateful for her help with this first big step in my entrepreneurial journey.

Fantastic experience: Jodi was incredibly enthusiastic, understanding, and supportive throughout the challenging process of looking for a home for our cross-country move.

Fantastic experience: Jodi was an amazing realtor from the very beginning. She was so welcoming & incredibly patient with us as 1st time home buyers..even answering questions for us day of closing! She has community connections as well that helped with the inspection, finding an attorney, getting & understanding funding, etc. She was so excited to look at different houses with us, while also helping to explain what to look out for in the home buying experience.

Fantastic experience: Jodi was great to work with she was on the sale side, and we had a very tight closing window but she made sure everything went smooth so all parties could close on time.

Fantastic experience: If you're looking for a Real Estate Agent who does it all... look no further!

Fantastic experience: Jodi O'Malley was exceptional for us. Moving from the area had a couple of unique pieces. We knew we would move, but weren't sure when. Her advice on listing price and timing was to wait to list until we knew more. We got the home ready and made some needed changes in the meantime. When the time was right, she moved forward with our home. We got the asking price we asked for the home, in sold in a timely manner, and her advice on prep for the home helped it all move forward smoothly.
