Now is a pivotal time for Jill Collins, a Realtor with Fulton Grace, as her expertise is more valuable than ever to the community. After a decade assisting buyers and sellers in the city and suburbs, she has many empty-nester clients who are ready to downsize. Additionally, they have aging parents prepared to move. With Collins’ Lifestyle Solutions Services, she assists those making these transitions.

It takes substantial knowledge to support her clients, especially the 55+ community. She credits earning the designations of Seniors Real Estate Specialist, Real Estate Negation Expert, Pricing Strategy Advisor and Certified Staging Consultant as key to her success. The guidance and support of her mentor Peter Moulton, who drove her to excel as an agent, along with training from Tom Ferry International, have been game-changers.

“Watching my mom sell real estate as I grew up inspired me to pursue this path,” she says. “I understand that buying or selling a home is one of the most significant financial decisions you will make, and I am committed to guiding my clients correctly through the process.”

Collins still enjoys guiding first-time buyers through the process and helping clients in the luxury market navigate all the nuances of that unique landscape. Her “Just Ask Jill” series on social media has a dedicated following of both people in the housing market and those considering entering it, seeking answers to their questions.

Having reached top-producer status at d’aprile properties and Coldwell Banker Realty, Collins moved to Fulton Grace in March 2024. “I understand that everyone’s story is unique, and you are not just another client to me,” she says. “I tailor your experience to ensure it meets your specific needs, giving you 100% personalized service. By the end of the transaction, you are not just a client; you are a friend.”

Collins loves spending time with family and friends.
