  Geneva is a far-western suburb of Chicago located in extreme eastern Kane County, Illinois. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 19,515. It is the county seat of Kane County. Geneva is a popular tourist destination with its scenic location along the Fox River and well-known shops and restaurants. Geneva is located along the Union Pacific/West line of the Metra commuter rail system which provides frequent service to downtown Chicago, just 36 miles away. There is an extensive bike trail system in Geneva including portions of the Fox River Trail and the Illinois Prairie Path. Geneva has an active historical society, the Geneva History Center, located in downtown Geneva. Geneva is part of a tri-city area, along with St. Charles and Batavia. The area is currently experiencing a high level of population growth as Chicagoland spreads further and further west. Once known as one of Chicago's furthest west reaching suburbs, Geneva is now becoming more centrally located as further west suburban locales such as La Fox and Elburn quickly develop. However, as the population of Geneva is changing, the town is fully retaining its' class and uniqueness that set it apart from the rest of Chicagoland. The city is home to the Kane County Cougars baseball club of the Midwest League. Every year in the fourth week of June, Geneva celebrates "Swedish Days", a five day long festival. |  | | | Windmill | |

Working With An Agent >Choosing A Real Estate Agent
When you buy or sell a home, you want to work with a real estate agent who has the experience and expertise to handle such a complex transaction with a minimum amount of stress. When choosing a real estate agent, you should look for technical competence and interpersonal skills.
Ask prospective real estate agents several questions. How long have you been in the business? How do your services differ from those of your colleagues? Do you have a principal broker/owner who works closely with you and serves as a backup person if you are not available?
Keep in mind that there are no "right" answers to these questions. Don't rule out a less-experienced agent who brings energy and enthusiasm to the job. You want personalized professional service from someone whom you can trust to lead you through the process.
