While I grew up in Hartland (the smiley barn exit off of I-94), I have chosen to live and work in Madison for over 20 years. I received my Bachelor's and Master’s Degrees from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I love all that the city and the surrounding areas have to offer, whether it be the Farmers Market, Memorial Union Terrace, neighborhood festivals, dog parks, or the many great restaurants and breweries. Madison has an incredible energy that draws you in and makes you never want to leave. I call the downtown area home, where I reside with my husband and loyal canine companion Rufus.
My professional career has included over a decade working as a paralegal, and later a decade working as a clinical social worker in the mental health and medical fields. My work has always focused on relationships and helping others. It has also required me to understand the law as it pertains to my clients.
Real estate can be a complex and sometimes frustrating process. My diverse work history allows me to bring many years of experience assisting and guiding people through complex situations and the skills to better understand your needs.
What sets me apart is my attention to detail, enthusiasm, and dedication to you. I will invest the time, care, and effort to sell your home, or find you the home of your dreams, as if it was my own. I will communicate with you regularly to make sure your questions are answered and there are no surprises about the steps in the transaction process. My goal is to get you where you need to be, on time and for the best value, so you can enjoy life. And you just might find you can have fun during the process.
I have always had a passion for real estate and would find myself tracking the market, driving around neighborhoods in my free time to discover what they had to offer homeowners. It only made sense to pursue a career that mixed my professional skills and passion, which is why I decided to pursue my dream and joined Stark. I consider myself lucky to be part of such a dynamic team and a company that puts people first.
We help people move from the life they have to the life they want.
" Jannea was amazing to work with! From the very beginning she made us feel comfortable with purchasing our home long distance by doing site visits via FaceTime. Her kind and approachable demeanor and expert negotiation skills made us feel confident with the offer we were making. She partnered with us every step of the way and was a calm resource for us during a busy transition. Thank you, Jannea! - Jayla & Chris, Madison "

" Jannea was really great. Super quick with everything, helped us find a house against the odds in December and get into it quicker than a typical closing, which was really important to us. She was fun to find a house with, a good voice of reason, and knew a lot about the area, was always quick to find an answer to a question if she didn't know. Jenny & Eric, West Side Madison "

"I recently had to sell my father’s house, long distance. Jannea was recommended to me by a friend who had been very satisfied with her service. It’s not often that you engage someone for a service and they greatly exceed your expectations. Jannea did. Jannea was prompt, professional and efficient. She communicated with me frequently and kept me informed. She gave excellent advice that I believe helped us sell the house fast and for full value. Since this was a long distance transaction, she went above and beyond the call of duty -- helping us to locate other service providers (all of whom were excellent) and coordinating their access to the property. There were a few hiccups with the buyers inspection and appraisal and she gave us good advice on how to handle them, coordinated access, and facilitated a resolution that helped the sale go through ahead of schedule. I would absolutely recommend Jannea to anyone trying to buy or sell a house. "

" Jannea was an absolute pleasure to work with. As a first time homebuyer, I had no prior experience with real estate but Jannea made sure we were on top of the process every step of the way. Her responsiveness and enthusiastic attitude were the exact qualities I was looking for in an agent. She would answer my questions at all hours and she was emotionally invested in finding the right property, sometimes even more so than myself! I remember one instance where I had seen a property that I was ready to make an offer on when a property that I had been very interested in came back on the market. Jannea told me that she had stayed up late that night thinking about which property would be better for me and that was when I knew she was the right agent. If it weren't for her hard work, I never would have found the condo I now own. The listing had expired and she contacted the owner to start the whole process. Overall I'm very satisfied with how everything went! "

" I worked with Jannea while looking for my first home. She was always available whether it was for questions I had that needed answering, just to chat or to schedule a last minute showing. She was so helpful throughout the whole home-buying process. She is very knowledgeable especially when it comes to condos and condo associations/fees/documents. She helped me pick out, put an offer on, and buy my first home in the downtown Sun Prairie area. My experience was absolutely wonderful. "
