Carol Juntunen is a REALTOR® with Baird & Warner and a Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist (CPRES) who helps executors, administrators, trustees, seniors, and families across Chicagoland navigate the sale of a home with compassion, experience, and confidence.
With more than 10 years in real estate, Carol has helped over 50 families through the probate and trust real estate process — from clean-outs and repairs to preparing the home for the market and negotiating a successful sale.
What sets Carol apart is her unique combination of real estate expertise, corporate leadership, and hands-on home renovation experience. Before becoming a REALTOR®, she spent 23 years in management at Motorola and owned a Handyman Connection franchise for 12 years, giving her extensive knowledge of home repairs, renovations, maintenance issues, and cost-effective improvements that help homes sell.
As a PSA, CPRES, CSC, CNE, SRES, and e-PRO specialist, Carol combines pricing strategy, staging expertise, internet marketing, and skilled negotiation to help sellers maximize value while reducing stress.
She also provides access to trusted resources including estate sale companies, consignment services, clean-out crews, contractors, and handymen — offering true support from clean-out to closing.
To help families better understand the process, Carol also created her Ultimate Probate & Trust Property Guide. Learn more here: Ultimate Probate & Trust Property Guide 
Carol proudly serves Elgin, Schaumburg, Hoffman Estates, Mount Prospect, and surrounding northwest, western, and southwest suburbs of Chicago.
From clean-out to closing… she’s your trusted guide.
