Jen Cisar

I chose to work in real estate because I wanted to build a career where I had the opportunity to connect and create experiences for clients. Growing up as the daughter of a custom home and commercial builder, I enjoyed touring model homes and quickly developed a vision for spaces under development. This translated into constant furniture rearrangement in my room, while living at home and then into my college dorm space and first homes. I spent my first career thinking strategically in healthcare marketing and philanthropy roles, fulfilling my desire to serve a higher mission and impact lives.

Transitioning my experience to a second career in real estate just made sense - building great relationships and helping people find the perfect place to live eventually helped me identify the many gaps in the process. As the founder of Ivy Home, I wanted to eliminate the transaction component and focus on the lifestyle experience. Ivy Home’s mission is to simplify and meet clients and families where they are at in the process, creating an experience that is memorable.
