About Heather
I'm Heather Johnson, a lifelong Bloomington-Normal resident, REALTOR®, wife of a Union electrician, mom and bonus mom to four teenagers, and passionate community advocate. Since 2016, I've helped buyers and sellers navigate one of life's biggest decisions with honest advice, strong communication, and practical guidance. As someone who has remodeled homes and is currently building our retirement home, I know what to look for during showings and inspections and enjoy helping clients avoid costly surprises. I have a special passion for helping seniors and their families through downsizing and major life transitions. Moving after decades in a home is about more than real estate—it's about memories, family, and the next chapter. I strive to make that process less overwhelming by providing patience, resources, and hands-on support every step of the way. Whether you're buying your first home or selling one you've loved for years, I'm here to help you move forward with confidence.

About Emily
I've been a "townie" since 1983. Prior to Real Estate, I was an RN at OSF St Joseph. I've been privileged to take part in many births in the area during the nearly twenty years I worked there. I've also had professional experience in the Champaign area. I'm married to John who coached swimming in Bloomington/Normal for over 50 years.. We have six kids and nine grandkids between us! Family is everything. That is what I like about selling Real Estate. Working OB and selling Real Estate are so similar . Life is changing somehow. This is what I love to do...I help folks transition into new life situations. Whether it be a first-time purchase, a move across the county, or the time to down-size, I am here to "Cure Your Housing Need".

Professional excellence from start to finish, and then some.

Our experience with Emily was excellent in every way. She is an excellent communicator, and her level of care, knowledge, and honesty made her a terrific agent to have in our corner. We felt lucky to have such a great realtor!

Super responsive and knowledgeable

Emily is super responsive and, even more importantly, asks questions we did not think to ask. In that sense, she seems much more than a real-estate agent and is a lawyer, reference to businesses, and diplomat all in one. She is also incredibly knowledgeable about both the buying process as well as the area and the market situation. Equally important is the fact is that she's a positive and energetic person who's a joy to be around. You can't go wrong with Emily!

All around great!

Emily is absolutely fantastic to work with! I can't recommend her enough. She helped me purchase and sell this home. She has so much experience and knows the Bloomington-Normal area so well that I had no doubt my home would sell. She went above and beyond to get my house sold at a great price even through the winter when the market was slower. Her photographer took excellent photos, she had several open houses, and she even had someone come and clean the house and shovel the snow for us after we had moved out of state. Emily Almeida is one of the best!

Above and beyond!

Emily goes above and beyond! The move across the country seemed daunting but she was available virtually and in person when needed. She worked with the lender, buyer, and vendors to ensure that we could be taken care of virtually or in person on our behalf. Not only was Emily helpful in the home buying process and experience, she also took the time to make sure that I got a tour of the local area to make sure I not only knew the difference in areas I could live but also show me local venues, doctors, etc. that were important to know and feel comfortable with during the move. I would highly recommend Emily! Not only is she professional but she goes above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and informed throughout the process and that you will love the home you buy.
