"My husband and I would highly recommend Lynn Bjorvik as a realtor . She is straight forward , knowledgeable, hard worker, friendly, and gets things done. We bought my dads house in River Grove and she helped us thru this process since we live in Texas it was hard flying back and forth . Lynn kept us in the loop with potential buyers and she explained the good and bad on what buers want in a house. Our house wasn't great inside it needed a major make over but I do like where we live...River Grove . Your near major roads, hospitals, schools, restaurants, and small business . Lynn made it happened where someone bought the house and we were very thrilled its also emotional I grew up in this house and long story short ........ Weand would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Lynn Bjorvik as your realtor ! Thank you Lynn ...YOUR THE BEST! !"

"Jo Ceglarek was wonderful to work with. She has a keen eye to detail and is very knowledgeable about the housing and real estate industry and markets. She also knows Chicagoland very well. Jo helped us find and close with the purchase of our first home. As new homeowners there were many things we weren't aware of. Jo brought many things to our attention while still allowing us to make decisions. Jo was incredibly prompt, when returning our calls or messages. She walked us through every step with patience and understanding. Jo was our cheerleader and couch through this process. I will 100% recommend Jo to anyone I know who is looking to buy or sell. I've also used Jo to find apartment rentals in the past. Each time has been perfect working with Jo. Jo was there via text for the closing due to new covid regulations she wasn't physically present, but we knew she was waiting by her phone. After closing we arrived to our new home with a nice welcome from our favorite relator. "

"My husband and I are first time home buyers and we can’t imagine going through this process with any other team! Lynn was professional and thoughtful through and through. She took time to educate us, make sure we felt comfortable with every decision, and was great company throughout the process. She is a quick mover and I can’t believe how fast we closed on our dream house! She has many reliable connections and set us up with a team that was also reliable and awesome to work with. We could not be more pleased with our experience! Lynn and her team are highly recommended by us! She took what could have been a very stressful and intimidating process and made it into a walk in the park. Thank you Lynn!"

They kept us apprised of everything we needed to know and did a great job of easing any concerns we had. Go with them, you won’t regret it!"

"I would highly recommend The J & L Team! They helped my mother sell her home of 43 years, (which was an emotional process) and downsize to a condominium. Lynn was patient, caring, hard working and very knowledgeable. She really went the extra mile to answer questions and communicate with us every step of the way. From the first day we met with her, she made us feel very comfortable. Even after the closings, she still checked in to make sure everything was going well. We truly loved working with her! The J & L Team will always be our choice for any future real estate needs and we would recommend them to anyone. "

Even during a pandemic, Lynn took the proper precautions and adapted to the ever-changing climate. She is a true professional and we are happy to recommend Lynn to anyone and everyone! "

  -Kim, Client

"A friend recommended Jo to us, and she was absolutely the person we needed on our side in the house buying process. She walked us through the process of making an offer on one home, which wasn't accepted. She encouraged us as we made an offer on a second home, which was accepted. She was not only a sounding board, but had first-hand knowledge about the neighborhood and reputable home service providers to do some updating on our home. Jo is good at communication and listening to the concerns and questions that pop up in the home buying process. We have both worked with several other realtors in the past. None were as personable, knowledgeable and patient as Jo was with us. We'd recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home."

  -B & A Thompson, Client

"Lynn made us feel like family! She and Jo made this process so easy and explained everything to us making our first time selling a home a smooth process. I appreciated their expert options and quick responses whenever we had questions. I would 100% recommend this team!"

"I’ve known Josephine and worked with her for years. She has helped my husband and me find new rental apartments on several occasions. She is always so professional and knowledgeable. She walks into each apartment and looks for things we wouldn’t have thought to look for or think of. She is organized and always stays in contact. I love working with her. I recommend her to all of my friends and family. I can’t wait until the day we can buy a house with her. I know each moment of that process will be covered with Josephine and anyone she works with behind it. I appreciate all that she does each time I work with her. "

  -Debi DeMario, Client

"I can't say enough about Lynn Bjorvik and Jo Ceglarek at Coldwell Banker. We had to sell our mother's home- our childhood home, after the passing of our mother. Lynn was very sensitive to our needs and truly understands that selling a house is more than just a real estate transaction. It was a very stressful task to even think about, but Lynn and Jo both helped in that process to make a very overwhelming task very manageable. I would definitely refer them to any of my friends and family for selling their home. "

  -Sharon Meyer, Client

"Lynn is an outstanding pro. She takes her time and considers every possibility. She always has the best interests of her clients in mind--even if those conflict with her best interests."

  -Dan Pompei, Client

"Lynn Bjorvik worked beyond expectations as we searched, found, and purchased our new home. The process took several months. Lynn was there every step of the way. She answers all of your questions; if she doesn’t know/have the answer, she’ll get it. She offers advice when appropriate and steps back when it isn’t. She calms nerves during the tense moments of decision making and waiting for others’ decisions. Lynn doesn’t desert you once the offer is accepted; she continues to touch base with you every step of the way up until and after closing when she is there with her heartfelt Congratulations! (Obviously, Lynn is a fantastic communicator!) To top it off, since Lynn and Jo work as a team someone is always available to attend to your needs. We met Jo when our new home was undergoing its inspection. So glad that we did! I can now honestly report that besides being top-notch real estate professionals, both Lynn and Jo are warm, caring people. Needless to say, go with J&L Team!"

I have been through several real estate dealings over the years and never had such a smooth transaction. Thank you for your efforts during a stressful time for our family."

  -Michael Riesterer, Client

"Lynn was great to work with. She was professional through the entire process of purchasing our first house. She was always available to answer any question and guided us down the right path to homeownership. We still get a warm feeling every time we enter our house, which has now become our home. We highly recommend you use Lynn and her team on your next real estate transaction. "

  -Dave and Lauren Guerin, Client

"Moving from out-of-state is stressful enough, and more so when you have a tight timeframe. Jo made the whole process so easy and was extremely accommodating. She consistently sent us new properties that matched what my husband and I were looking for, and based on what I was interested in she booked showings. She booked all the showings for one afternoon, on a crunch and mapped them out for us. When we found our place, she stayed on top of the ball and made sure everything was in order. She even did our walk-through for us since we couldn't be in-state that day. She's professional, cares about her clients wants and needs, and really makes the whole process as stress-free as possible. I was truly impressed, and I know she handles all her clients all the same since I was referred to her based on her amazing realtor services! Not matter if you're looking to rent or own, she will make sure you're satisfied. "

  -Miranda, Client

"Lynn and Jo make a great team!!! I was looking to buy a house as I was also selling my current house and was on a time constraint to find “the one.” Lynn took me to see many houses before I found mine and she was incredibly patient and understanding through the whole process. Jo took me through the negotiation process and I got my dream house!! I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and I owe it all to these two awesome women! Thank you both for everything!! To all those looking to buy or sell, you can’t go wrong with Lynn and Jo."

  -Michelle Miller, Client

"I cannot say enough good things about Lynn. My mom recently passed away and I had to sell my childhood home. It was hard enough dealing with her passing but to add the home to it made it feel completely overwhelming. I approached Lynn & she handled literally everything. She explained every little detail to me and made herself available to me for any questions that came up. Within 4 days, she had 3 offers. She walked me through each one & explained the differences in each offer. I cannot say enough positive things about Lynn. If you are looking for someone to help you buy or sell a house, I guarantee you, you WILL NOT be disappointed!!!!!"

  -Janet Pearson, Client

"Lynn came highly recommended to us, and after working with her I totally understand why. From our first meeting through to closing, we had nothing short of a perfect relationship. She prepared us for a fast sale and was positive that we would get our listing price or close to it. We did get an offer from our very first showing and for asking price. Lynn and Jo got us through the entire process effortlessly. It could not have gone any better. I definitely would not hesitate to work with this excellent team again. "

  -Rose Spinelli, Client

"I worked with both Lynn & Jo, giving them both a very specific area that challenged them in helping me find my next hone as my goal was to definitely to be near family. All I can say, is that they both stayed focused and worked diligently to ensure they provided insight and properties that met my criteria. I am happy to report I am in my new home and thrilled with the results. I would recommend them to anyone looking for real estate in the future. "

  -Lucy Trice, Client

"I don’t know what I’d do without Jo & Lynn. I worked with both of them during my first home buying experience, and they found me the perfect home for me. When COVID hit, I was very worried I would never find something I like within my budget, but both reassured me I had time and they will keep a look out. We finally found the home I bought and even during the stressful parts, they were there to keep me level headed and guide me. You won’t regret working with these two ladies! "

  -Kellie Newcomer, Client

"Lynn provided exceptional service in the recent sale of our family home. She is extremely knowledgeable and educated in current market conditions, and how they will influence and impact both buyers and sellers. Lynn has a unique ability to balance the emotional and business components that are always present in a residential real estate transaction. This balance was very important to us and we could not have found a more qualified, friendly and professional agent, to help us with the details and decisions. I highly recommend Lynn and her team."
