Jennifer DeBower

Jennifer Riccolo DeBower became a REALTOR® to combine two of her passions, building a home and advocating for clients. She has over a decade of legal experience handling civil litigation in Cook County. She is a skilled negotiator and communicator - direct, decisive, and responsive. She also has hands-on home buying and renovating experience. Her legal training, mindful approach to real estate, and approachable demeanor are just a few reasons her clients choose Jennifer as their broker.

Jennifer will partner with you to reach your real estate goal – whether it is selling your place, finding your dream home, or locating the best investment property.

Jennifer treats each client’s interests with the care and attention to detail of a trusted friend. She will act as a personal advisor to help her clients find the perfect space to fit their needs and to make their dreams a reality.

Jennifer Riccolo DeBower holds a Bachelor of Arts in English & Italian from the University of Iowa and earned her Juris Doctor from Loyola University Chicago School of Law in 2004.

Outside of work, Jennifer is a constant projector, aspiring minimalist, yoga enthusiast, and avid reader. She serves as a volunteer attorney with Chicago Volunteer Legal Services, representing homeowners in mortgage modification mediations. She is also General Counsel for Chicago Volunteer Doulas, a local non-profit which provides families with labor and birth support.

Jennifer has lived in a Gold Coast high rise, a Wicker Park three flat, a Bucktown condo, and now calls the East Village home after extensively renovating a century-old two-flat.
