Joanna & Jodi

At J Collective Homes, we truly believe we are stronger together. Through collaboration of top agents, Joanna Smith and Jodi O'Malley, we take an elevated and modern approach to serve our clients.

Our passion, shared values and love for people is at the heart of everything we do. We are local experts with over 2 decades of experience in buying, selling, investing and renovating homes.

With our extensive knowledge, negotiating skills, and resources, our #1 goal is to exceed your expectations! We are here for you every step of the way!

  • We recently completed the sale of our long-time family home through the amazing work of Joanna and Jodi.

    At each step of the process, Joanna and Jodi were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. From the initial assessment of our home, exploration of comparable sales, outlining the approach to the sales plan, and all the steps leading up to closing, they were able to simplify the process, proactively handle the details, and guide us to a great outcome. Their staging and marketing efforts presented our home wonderfully and we enjoyed immediate results as soon as we were on the market. Additionally, they were extremely responsive throughout the process to any questions we had or any items that arose. But what differentiated Joanna and Jodi was the sincerity of their care and engagement with us throughout the sales experience and even after closing. They inspired an extraordinary level of confidence with us that they genuinely cared about our experience and the outcome they helped generate. We will gladly, and without any reservation, recommend Joanna and Jodi to anyone who needs to navigate a residential real estate transaction as a seller or buyer. You’ll be in the best hands possible.

  • She did a phenomenal job.

    We didn’t know Jodi before we asked her to help us sell our home. She is creative, strategic, appreciates the value of Thornewood (our neighborhood), and treated us like partners throughout the process. I’m confident that we sold our home for more than what we would have if we would have used someone else.

  • "Our Cheerleader and Champion"

    The word Joanna means gods gift or god is gracious and working with Joanna… we truly felt that!!

    She is full of energy, warmth and kindness and wants nothing but the best for you. As first time home owners she was with us every step of the way….. guiding us through the process, being a mentor and partner in this journey. She imparted countless home 101 lessons, sharing her wisdom and care.

    There’s no way we could’ve done this without Joanna. If you’re looking for a house in the Champaign Urbana area, we could not recommend her enough!!!

  • She was extremely knowledgeable

    Jodi did an amazing job helping us find our new home! She was extremely knowledgeable and was always available to help answer our questions. She went above and beyond with assisting us through the whole process. We highly recommend her!!

  • Hands down the best!!

    Working with Joanna made home buying exceptionally easy. She was by my side, walking me through every step of the process, from start to finish. Johanna is more than a realtor, she's an advocate, always putting my mind at ease during what could have been an incredibly stressful process. I would highly recommend Joanna and J Collective Homes!!
