Jennifer has been amazing Realtor in the time that I have known her. She is nothing short of spectacular and the 5 stars says it all! When we first met, she was able to rent my property immediately. Jennifer then turned around and sold it at my request. She answered every call or email within minutes and made me feel like I was her only client which is exactly what I look for in a realtor. Since then, she has provided sound and honest guidance in all aspects of the market, both locally and as requested and has been spot on! Most recently, I contacted Jennifer as my family and I were moving back to the east coast and wanted advise as if we should buy or rent. Although decided to buy in VA, she recommended a realtor and was intimately involved in every step of the process. I would not have been comfortable buying a home being on the west coast if she was not there. I have provided her information to several friends and she has helped each of them to buy or rent and they all thanked be for it. If someone needed to buy, sell or rent, Jennifer Chino is my number 1 hands down!

Jennifer did an absolutely amazing job helping us with a complicated real estate situation. She was supportive, incredibly responsive to our many questions, and with us every step of the way. Not to mention, she had our house under contract in 5 days!! She has great knowledge of the area including schools, neighborhood amenities, etc. We will hopefully be buying another home in the near future and I would not want to work with anyone else.

With Jennifer, buying and renting out my home was a smooth ride. Jennifer assisted us buying a beautiful home in our price range and even in the neighborhood we loved the best! We definitely could not have done this without Jennifer, and she really took care of us well during the negotiation, closing, and even after closing. When it is time to move again, also Jennifer helped us to rent the house out. we will definitely call Jennifer for future transactions! I recommend her so very highly. I couldn’t believe how responsive she was to all of our requests and questions, and she knew far more than we ever hoped to about the process of buying and renting out a home.

Our most recent house purchase is the third time we've used Ms. Chino's services. Should we need a realtor again, she's our first phone call. We looked at lot of houses and Jenn never for a second made us feel that we were a bother. Great local knowledge. Very very quick to return a phone call, text, or email.

Jen was very responsive to showing requests, even during weekends. She possesses good local knowledge, which is very useful and helpful in finding a home inspector, electrician etc. School districts info are always important to newcomers, Jen knows this kind of info very well too. When making an offer, especially there are competing offers, it is crucial to get Jen's help to bid for the desired house.

Jennifer was awesome. We used her services for buying and selling a house. It's a very stressful time and she made it as easy as possible. She responded to any questions or emails asap and I never felt put off or that I was being annoying or asking too many questions. She is very motivated and knowledgeable about the real estate business and very trustworthy. I would highly recommend her.

Jen is by far the most knowledgeable real estate agent of not only the Annapolis area, in addition to her expansive experience in all aspects of real estate transactions. She has helped us buy and sell over 4 times now and has exceeded our expectations each time.

Jennifer helped us sell our house recently. She was very professional and friendly at the same time. Our house was under contract within 2 weeks! Jennifer helped us pick a selling price that was comparable to other houses, had her wonderful assistant help us stage our house, and had a photographer take beautiful photos. We had to deal with a difficult buyers agent and Jennifer handled every issue with class and kept us in the loop at all times. I would highly recommend Jennifer Chino!

I have bought and sold houses and rented others to tenants for over forty years with varying degrees of satisfaction from numerous real estate agents. So I was somewhat apprehensive in going through the process for my resent real estate sale. This was immediately resolved when I decided on Jennifer to handle the sale. Over the years the selling process has become much more vigorous with the dozens and dozens of papers that need to be read, understood and signed. Jennifer is very knowledgeable on all aspects of her profession and was always there to explain and answer every question I had. And I am not the easiest of people to please, having worked in an engineering environment my entire life I require forthright and honest answers to all of my questions. Jennifer, along with being very intelligent, gave me gave excellent advice on pricing and resolving all conditions that needed attention. She made the entire experience enjoyable and seamless, from the onset thru settlement. And, most important, Jennifer strives to please the person(s) she represents. Jennifer is an outstanding real estate agent and hope her present employer realizes what an asset she is to their company. I have and will still recommend to all acquaintances to enlist her as their representative for any real estate transactions.

Jennifer Chino is a highly experienced real estate Agent with character and integrity that are non negotiable. I utilized Jen to sell and purchase a home and wanted to take my time To find something that was perfect for my family. Jen made good recommendations, but did not pressure me into anything I wasn't 100% comfortable with. Utilizing Jen's experience and knowledge we sold and purchased a home after an 8 month search. The home is a perfect fit and a good investment. We hold Jen in very high regard as a person and a professional.

We were living in China relocating to Annapolis, when we connected with Jennifer through my company relocation program. We made one trip to Annapolis for a house hunting trip. Jennifer before during and after that trip proved to be the best real estate agent we have ever had. She has intimate knowledge of the area, she listened to us very well, worked extremely hard, gave excellent counsel /advice. We ended up leaving that trip unsuccessful in finding a house. We went back to China and used Jennifer and online search tools. Over the course of several weeks, she communicated with us nearly every day, including at odd hours due to our time difference. we eventually found something online and relied upon her to make an offer on our behalf. We were successful in purchasing the home and Jennifer stayed with us all the away through closing. In addition to being an ultimate professional, she is also thoughtful and fun to be with. I recommend her strongly and with NO reservation! !!

Working with Jennifer was great! She has strong knowledge of the local market and did a great job of representing my interest when dealing with my seller. Also, she was not hesitant to provide some prompting when I was perhaps a bit slow to respond. I would definitely select Jennifer Chino again in future real estate deals.

Jennifer was clearly a seasoned real estate PROFESSIONAL. And by professional I mean knowing her craft, understanding the market and the emotional and financial decisions of her customers going into a relocation. She was able to navigate our (at times) choppy sales process. From the Market Analysis she provided, down to the strategy sessions we had to have to get our home sold as quickly as possible due to company relocation, Jennifer was always right where I needed her. She is more than just a realtor looking to collect her commission, she was a manager managing the entire process from start to finish - even helping the less-seasoned buyer’s agent navigate the sales process. It was almost “magical” to watch - Working with Jennifer was a dream come true. Thank you Jennifer Chino!

I have worked with Jennifer on multiple occasions and each time she has delivered. She responds quickly, works diligently and has an ability to work through many types of situations. She is the first one I call with any real estate matters and will always be my first choice when it comes to selling, buying or renting property. Jennifer has my full trust because I know she will get the job done and most importantly, I can trust her. One of the best in Maryland.

Jennifer helped me out from start to finish with my first time home buying. She was easy to get a hold of and responded to my messages very quickly. Once I found the home I wanted, she immediately set the plans in motion. She was very quick to get the forms I needed ready to sign and spoke to many people for me to ensure the process went smoothly. Going into things as a first time home buyer, I had very little knowledge how everything would go. Jennifer was vital to this experience and I feel like I learned a lot in the process.

Jen is the type of person who cares more about your needs than what's best for her. She listened to what we wanted and stayed within those preferences. She was very knowledgeable about the area we were new to and based on our needs she was able to direct us to areas we would be the happiest in and steered us clear of those that did not fit our criteria. She showed us houses we requested to see in a very timely manner and never made us feel as though we were a bother. She is patient and kind and did not try to influence our decision but offered advice when asked and made sure we understood the process of buying a house. It was such a smooth process with her and I would recommend Jen to anyone buying or selling.

Working with Jennifer is probably the best experience I have ever had with a realtor. She worked to keep me and my husband informed with every step of the home purchase process and was extremely responsive. We felt like we were her only clients. My husband and I had about 2 months to find a home and she immediately and aggressively began scouring the market for houses that fit our specifications and stayed in constant communication via email and phone when new houses became available. With her help, we were able to find a home and secure financing for a great new home. Working with Jennifer is like working with a friend. An excellent realtor.

Jennifer Chino could not have been more enjoyable to work with in locating and buying the perfect home. My requirements and situation were challenging and she did everything right to get to know me, understand my needs and take care of me through the process. I was most impressed with her integrity. I saw her work openly and honestly not only with me, but also with other agents, sellers, and other real estate professionals, so I knew I could absolutely trust her. That is not at all the case with other real estate agents, many of whom are in it for themselves more than their clients.

I've purchased several homes in throughout my life and Jennifer has been by far the best Real Estate Professional I've ever met. Jennifer took the time to get to know me personally in order to find me the perfect house. Knowing me and my personality led her to quickly identify potential homes. This was extremely important since I am always time constrained. I wasted no time looking at homes that were not my taste. Even after I purchased the house, Jennifer and I are still in communication as friends. Since she knows the area, she is constantly giving me advice on places to go, things to see, etc. Jennifer Chino is definitely the agent to go with.

Buying, selling, or renting- Jenn is our 'go to'! Jenn has taken over our rental properties....we first requested her services when our downtown house sat on the market for two months, multiple visits- but not rental applications. With a few MINOR suggestions costing very few dollars, and a new listing view....we had four applications in five days, at or above asking price. All potential renters were thoroughly screened- and we've since only had positive rental experiences. That was eight years and three rentals ago. Jenn is now managing all of our properties. We have recommended her services to those not only dealing with rentals, but also those buying and selling. She is local to the area, knowledgeable in what each neighborhood brings, friendly yet professional, and will always ensure that you walk away with the best possible outcome. There is no other area realtor I recommend more!!

We were a military family of 3 with moving orders that took us from Washington state to Annapolis. Knowing nothing about the area we had to have a agent that would be willing to provide services over and beyond a usual transactions. My husband and I were limited to shopping on line for a house which is very stressful given the enormity of the decision we were making. Jennifer was absolutely perfect in every way! From the consistent communication to the sending us videos of the houses and their surrounding areas, to helping with local financing options.She took the worry and stress out of the transaction and there was never a doubt in our minds that she was always looking out for us.

Jennifer was our agent for a relocation to an area we were completely unfamiliar with. She immediately took the time to understand our needs and help us find locations to look for homes based on our wants and needs. She was extremely patient with us as we looked at a number of houses and went through multiple offers before finally getting a perfect home. I would recommend her to anyone and would definitely use her again.

Jennifer is a true professional. She is very competent and always promptly responsive. Jennifer is very pleasant to work with, but confident and is a strong advocate for her clients. Although my wife and I were demanding clients, as our buyer's agent she answered all of our questions, gave us great advice, but also wasn't shy in letting us know when we were perhaps focusing on the wrong things. She is solely responsible for finding our dream house and for working very hard in getting us our house despite some competition. We enthusiastically recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a skillful and knowledgeable agent.

Everything about my experience with Jennifer was professional, but equally importantly, personal. Jennifer is not only a very experienced agent who clearly knows her stuff, but she approaches business and her clients on a very personal level understanding their perspective of the process, and doing everything she can to support them during the transaction from many angles. Jennifer listed and sold a home for me from afar and made what could have been a very challenging process as seamless as possible. I would highly, highly recommend Jennifer to anyone purchasing or selling their home.

I understand that in reviews you're supposed to eliminate the outliers (all top ratings and extremely low ratings) to arrive at an accurate viewpoint. However, Jennifer was on top of every minute detail. Her responsiveness was phenomenal. From MLS search requests, property reviews, prior listing details, etc., no response was longer than 1-2 days with most being within minutes or hours. I made offers on multiple properties. For the one offer, while it could've cleared easily, Jennifer advised me that going forward would entail identifiable risk and it was in her professional opinion to withdraw the offer. This demonstrated her integrity and willingness to make sure that I was fully satisfied and content at the end of the day and transaction. Additionally, in my personal unique scenario, the seller’s realtor failed to properly fill out a few required forms. Jennifer went above and beyond in filling out the required forms necessary for the bank that were outside her responsibility scope to ensure the transaction properly moved along from a timing perspective. In summary, she continually kept me advised on the current status of negotiations, was prompt in answering all questions, and was forthright in all the details. I would strongly recommend her expertise and knowledge of the industry. I've informed her of this recommendation, and if necessary, would be glad to speak with anyone looking to use her as a realtor. I'm extremely blunt (for better or for worse), and would be happy to provide any insight if you feel it is deemed necessary. Just ask her for my contact information.
