Joan Lencioni was raised in Naperville and never forgot her small town roots and how happy vibrant communities feel as a kid growing up. That is why she moved to the Fox Valley in 1987 with her family and lived in Geneva and now St. Charles. Her children all love where they grew-up despite the complaining at the time! They have deep roots in their communities.
She bought and restored (2) 19th century homes, raised 4 children and sold real estate, she loves the Fox Valley for its friendly people, excellent schools and the opportunity to be involved in hundreds of activities.
Real estate was always a passion ( its a tired cliche but the only one that applies) so she became a licensed agent in 1989. She was with BW for some of that time up to 1999. She worked hard and had a thriving real estate business!
In 1999 she was introduced to a third party relocation position. She has worked in numerous positions ever since then ending in 2016 as an account manager. She has an in-depth knowledge of relocation company culture and processes, HR policies for transferring employees, the home sale processes and a myriad of other subjects in this industry. She retired in 2016 from TRC Global but wasn't ready to just go play....
In 2016, She re-opened her real estate career! After joining a small real estate office for 2 yrs, she is back at Baird Warner and she is thrilled ! The training and support for technology, marketing and sales is unparalleled. She still believes real estate is all about PEOPLE and their DREAMS of owning their own home. The joy is finding just the right home and listening to their stories....She loves real estate and it is made sweeter by her daughter, Meg Burns Lietz being in the same office!
Full circle, full heart!
