Hey there, Chicagolanders! I’m Jessica Moore, and I’ve been obsessed with real estate for longer than most people have had smartphones. With 20+ years as a licensed broker in Illinois, 24 years flipping and investing in properties, and 27 years protecting and serving in law enforcement, I bring a whole different level of hustle, heart, and know-how to the table.

I’m a proud South Side girl and Chicago State University alum who knows every corner of Chicagoland like it’s my own backyard (because, well, it pretty much is). From bustling city neighborhoods to quiet suburban cul-de-sacs, I’ve bought, sold, lived in, and loved them all.

Here’s what you actually need to know about me:

• I’m the Realtor® who will tell you the truth—even when it’s “that carpet has GOT to go.”
• I geek out over turning ugly-duckling foreclosures into absolute stunners (investors, let’s talk!).
• I live for the moment a first-time buyer grabs their keys and realizes “This is MINE!”
• I’ll hold your hand, answer your midnight texts, and explain everything (no real estate jargon allowed).
• I treat every closing like it’s my own family moving in—because by that point, you basically are.

Buying or selling a home is a huge deal, and I refuse to let it feel stressful on my watch. My mission? Make the process fun, smooth, and maybe even a little addictive.

When I’m not out hunting the perfect house with clients, I’m home being bossed around by my dogs (the real king and queen of the house), loving on my incredible family, and cheering for anything Chicago. So, ready to fall in love with your next home (or cash in big on the one you’re leaving)? Let’s do this—together.

Your Favorite Realtor® (and biggest cheerleader)
