Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Jane was fantastic (and fun) to work with. She's an exceptional communicator. Her familiarity with the area, experience in negotiating & knowledge of strategies and options along the way took a lot of stress from the process of selling our townhouse. She was clear about what we could expect in our current market, worked with us to find a comfortable but realistic price and kept us informed every step of the way. We had to move immediately for a new job - Jane took care of all the details and loose ends we left behind. She is extremely efficient, professional and sold our house well. In addition to her professionalism, Jane is unassuming, very warm and witty. We really appreciated all of these assets for a successful working relationship. We have no regrets of working with Jane and would highly recommend her and her expertise to anyone. If we ever move back to Illinois, she'll be one of the first to know. Holly and Werner Barbosa
Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Jane is a true professional. I was not even in the market for a house when I saw this one on the market and contacted Jane. I had little background on the market, how to make a competitive offer, or what to look for during the inspection. Jane put me at ease and I trusted her quickly. She was there for me every step of the process inspection through closing. Thank you Jane!! Eileen M Gutierrez

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon As it had been quite some time since I had sold or purchased a home, and given the crazy current real estate market, I knew I needed someone who was not only knowledgeable but could also keep on top of all the fast-moving parts in order to sell my parents' home. Not only was this transaction my responsibility as trustee of the estate, it also presented many emotional elements for me. Jane came through in all ways possible -- keeping me focused on the ultimate goal while still acknowledging and respecting the personal struggles of selling my folks' home. She provided me with great information and input through continuous personal contact. While the decision was made to sell the home "as is," and it posed an additional challenge of finding comparable homes in the area to support the asking price, through Jane's over and above efforts, we were ultimately successful. The home sold with few delays, and the final price was all that I could have hoped for which allowed me to feel confident in the outcome on behalf of the estate. Jane did not hesitate to offer her thoughts and opinions, but was also completely open to my input as well. She always listened to my comments and, more importantly, heard what I had to say. By doing so, Jane allowed me to feel as though we were a team, working toward the same goal, and I am completely grateful for her assistance. Laura Graver
Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon We retained Jane Ruda as listing broker for my elderly mother as she was going through the absolute worst possible situation. The details of the situation were frankly unbelievable involving medical issues, divorce, fraud, theft, court orders, substantial property damage that needed renovation after the contract and more. All while Covid-19 was wreaking havoc on the world and my mother was in rehab and nursing facilities. I happen to be a 20+ year broker license myself and have served as a managing broker for most of that time. Being too far away to handle a sale in St. Charles I researched area brokers and sought recommendations eventually deciding Jane was what we needed. I know what a great broker does and is; Jane Ruda is just that. This was the most difficult transaction I have ever seen or heard of and Jane did an amazing job in near impossible circumstances. She went beyond on almost a daily basis to make this easier on my mother and me as we worked through months of legal and insurance battles. If you need a tremendous REALTOR® for you or a family member, look no further than Jane Ruda; you will be thrilled with your choice. Ian Robinson POA agent for Elizabeth Robinson Turner

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Working with Jane was a delight. She was very aggressive with a well thought-out successful plan to sell my mother's house.

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Jane went out of her way to show us many options in our search. She continued to narrow the search until we found just what we wanted at the price that was in our range. Jane focused on many of the details to make sure we executed all the steps. This was a downsize for us after living in the same home for over 26 years. Jane helped us transition with her warm manner and very professional follow up. We couldnt be more pleased! Thank you Jane JT

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon I would highly recommend working with Jane Ruda.  We interviewed three agents-Jane had the highest suggested listing price.  Our house sold at the price she suggested in 3 days!   Jane was very helpful as we figured out what work needed to be done to put our parents' home on the market.  Following her advice, we were able to update the house at a minimal cost.  She also provided several contacts for the work we decided to have done. Her upbeat, positive attitude helped to ease our anxieties and made the process fun and not overly stressful. Jane Tuma  N/A

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Jane is amazing! She is knowledgeable about all aspects of real estate. Beyond being supportive, she is also thinking of what is best for the customer. Jane noted that I was nervous about selling and was low pressure in encouraging me. She even asked if I was sure I wanted to do this. I couldn't believe it! She was thinking of my needs, and not about just getting a contract. That in itself assured me that I wanted her as my realtor. Jane is kind and helpful, making me always feel that she was there when I needed her and always keeping me up to date on all things. She has a great sense of humor and I felt very comfortable working with her. I knew I could trust whatever she told me. I will recommend Jane to anyone I know who is moving. I couldn't be happier!

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon We were very pleased with Jane Ruda. Her knowledge of everything that was happening was a very comforting and reassuring. My wife and I have not had any experience with selling a home ,but Jane took over and guided us thru every step of the process. She put in contact with movers who were top notch. Everything with our moving experience was made pleasurable because of the professional ability and knowledge of Jane Ruda. I would highly recommend her to any one who is buying or selling their home. Jane is a credit to the Baird-Warner company and the real estate industry. Roger Diesem
Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon I am writing this note because I want to comment on the genuine pleasure it was to work with Jane Ruda in selling my parents' townhouse in St Charles. At all times, Jane was a consummate professional with helpful ideas and feedback to sell the townhouse. Jane was available and responded promptly day or night, weekends and holidays. She spent time with us, listening to our concerns and comments...we never felt pressured or as if she didn't have time for us. Numerous times, she went above and beyond her contract commitment with us, from finding a cleaning lady (at a reasonable price) to recommending an electrician (also at a reasonable price!) to recommending a carpet installer, to name a just few examples! Most of all, Jane was truly a wonderful person with integrity who treated us with with respect and understanding, which meant so much during a difficult downsizing move for my elderly parents. I cannot say enough and would highly recommend her to anyone selling their home... Michele B. N/A
Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Working with Jane Ruda was a very pleasant experience. She's always happy, a pleasure to speak with,  and nothing was ever too difficult.   Resolving arising issues always worked well, as she was always as flexible as possible in  achieving a resolution Also beneficial in selling was her readiness to have "open houses" whenever needed. She created very good promotions,  a great photo sheet of the inside of the house, plus statistic sheets with specific information helpful to a buyer. I recommend to anyone to use Jane's services, as you will be very pleased.  She is a permanent name in my address book. C.B. N/A

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Jane Ruda was professional, proactive and so wonderful to have as our realtor. We sold our house in Fox Trails as soon as it hit the market -due to her networking and research. In the process of selling our home, we formed a friendship with Jane. If you are seeking a trustworthy, hardworking realtor: choose Jane. Terri Y.    N/A
Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon It was a joy working with Jane in the sale of our Batavia home. She was very knowledgeable about the area and provided very good professional information and suggestions about our whole home sale process. We were out of the state for much of the time, and Jane went over and above with numerous open houses and meeting with a number of contractors in fulfilling the requirements of the inspection. She was very personable and easy to work with, showing that she cared about selling our home and about us, personally. She made the experience much smoother and successful for us. We would highly recommend her for anyone wishing to sell their home. Kathy Trotter

Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Star icon Jane was the BOMB....the property was placed with three prior agents and nothing happened. Within three months, Jane had an offer. Her professional and consistent attention to detail made it happen. Nothing got past her.  I am recommending her to everyone I know who is interested in buying or selling. Susan D
