Jeanne Imach - Realtor / Broker

A word from the Broker, Jeanne Imach

I grew up in Poland (Europe) We never knew what it meant to move. People were born and lived their entire lives within a few mile radius. Families were raised in three generation households where grandmas and grandpas were always in the kitchen waiting for you to come home, where home smelled with freshly baked babkas and cheese stuffed pierogi, where people stopped in without big announcements and there was always something interesting to talk about. Most people had no phone, no car, and were not in a hurry.
I moved to America and learned how to celebrate Thanksgiving, eat popcorn and pumpkin pie, learn all about Tupperware parties, and who the Bulls and Notre Dame fans are. I had to learn to speak the new language ( I spoke German, French, Russian and Polish but not English!) I also had to learn the concept how people in America can move so often, so easily and in such an organized way. It took me a while to understand the process of being born in California, accepting a job opportunity in Florida and moving on average every 7 years.
Well, it did not take me a long time to get attracted to this “American life style”
I remember so well the agony of making my first important decision 10 years ago when signing papers to purchase our first dream home... I remember how emotionally difficult it was to sell it 3 years later when we outgrew it... But despite our mixed emotions we have found a bigger and better home where Katie and David, our 2 children, were delighted to make new friends and ride their bicycles in a much bigger subdivision with sidewalks. This was the place where David learned how to catch frogs and fish in a nearby stream with his new friend, Steven.
Again, we heard the voice of opportunity - another home on the horizon - closer to my husbands work, with more storage place and a much bigger backyard. Yes, we followed a voice and placed our second house on the market. In “house number 3" we’ve missed the frogs, the friendly Steve and our evening walks in the quiet neighborhood.. But we’ve replaced it with a big circle of new friends, bonfires in our backyard and a gorgeous rock garden. Just when I had finished my great flower garden we’ve noticed a 2 story brick home on a ravine. It had an extra room for my husbands computers, circular driveway with a perfect place to put a fountain in the middle and a half an acre of the woods in the back. We could not resist. We took a challenge and moved again.
Well, you can see that I can identify with any of you that may be debating about moving.
I can feel your struggle and questions and emotions - Who to hire to be your mentor, your leader, someone you can trust? Who has experience?
I would love to have an opportunity to meet with You, to sit down and to listen to your needs. Whether you are the Buyer or the Seller - I’ve been there. I will take you by hand through the process. I will do it with compassion and my full attention. You deserve it!
