OVERCOMER: Jody Rearick

Jody's remarkable journey, marked by early hardships, military service, and navigating challenges, took a transformative turn when she entered the real estate industry in 2008 amid the financial crisis. Recognizing the scarcity of real estate offices in her community, she opened a RE/MAX franchise, RE/MAX Diversity, in 2021, establishing it as a 100% veteran and women-owned company. Jody's success is grounded in an abundance mindset, hard work, and overcoming personal adversities, including battling breast cancer in 2017. Her commitment extends beyond professional achievements to community involvement, serving as an ambassador, trustee, and active participant in philanthropic endeavors. Despite her busy career, family remains a top priority, and Jody aspires to be the best mom and grammy while continuing to grow her real estate business and give back to her community. Her inspiring narrative underscores the resilience, strength, and positive impact that define her journey.

Congratulations Jody on building a real estate venture, embodying resilience, an abundance mindset, and unwavering commitment to community and family! 🎉👏🥂 Jody Rearick & Associates at RE/MAX Diversity

REALTOR LIFE: Jen Skvarch – Carving Her Own Path to Real Estate Success

“It’s about getting to the finish line and enjoying the journey along the way.”

Jen, a Northfield native, transitioned from property management to becoming a licensed real estate agent in 2015, initially learning and thriving on a team at Keller Williams. After nearly four years, she ventured out on her own, finding success through consistency, passion, and a commitment to networking without buying leads. Now running a solo business with the support of a transaction coordinator, Jen envisions building a team in the future. As a single mom, the flexibility of real estate has allowed her to cherish moments with her son, engage in community events, and maintain a healthy lifestyle through running and yoga. Success, for Jen, is about achieving goals while savoring the journey.

Congrats, Jen! Your real estate journey is amazing, and your success is well-deserved. Cheers to more wins ahead! 🎉🥂
