ZillowVERIFIEDWe contacted Jake after a bad experience with another realtor that was not producing results for us. We got Jakes contact info from a friend of my parents who had nothing but good things to say about him. He was very easy to get along with & was very blunt and honest about everything. He had a very detailed pricing analysis & marketing plan. We needed to get the house sold because we had already bought our next house out of town. The buyers side was not great with communication so that added some stress to the process, but Jake did his job & got the house sold. We closed exactly when we wanted to, and we still feel so relieved to have that behind us, and happy that we contacted Jake to help us. If you are searching for a local real estate agent, you can stop your search now. Jakes your guy

ZillowVERIFIED I got Jakes name from my mother, who worked with Jake a few years ago & had a lot of good things to say about him. Jake quickly gained a good sense of what we were looking for after just a short conversation, and he helped us find the perfect house in Nocatee on our first day out with him. I was impressed with how smooth and easy the process was. He was easy to talk to & I could tell he had a ton of experience because he was ready with answers to any questions that we had. We feel lucky to have connected with Jake & would gladly refer him to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in NE Florida.

ZillowVERIFIED We knew Jake because he had helped my daughter buy her new home a year ago. Hes a great guy & very knowledgeable about the local real estate market. He was able to get our town home sold when several others in the same community were just sitting on the market for months. He was very upfront about everything & didnt tell us what we wanted to hear aEUR" rather what we needed to hear to get the property sold. We appreciated his candor & will 100% call him in the future for any real estate needs. Thanks Jake

ZillowVERIFIED "We were referred to Jake from the HR department at the Mayo Clinic. Jake did an amazing job of helping us quickly narrow down neighborhoods and houses that fit our needs. He has extensive knowledge of the different communities, and his input was incredibly valuable. We were able to find the perfect home in Nocatee, and had a smooth closing just a few days after our house in Virgina was sold. The timing of everything couldnt have been more ideal for us. We are very happy that we had Jakes help during this process, and we would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone relocating to the area. Thanks Jake!aEUR?

ZillowVERIFIED This is our 3rd time working with Jake on a real estate sale. The market is really soft right now, especially for condos with all the new requirements & condo fees increasing so much. We trusted Jake, and although it did take a few months to sell it, he got the job done and most of the condos in our community are still sitting on the market. We're glad we hired Jake & would recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced real estate agent

ZillowVERIFIED "I hired Jake to list my house for sale because I have worked with him on 4 other real estate transactions over the past 10 years, so there was already a high level of trust established. I knew he would be looking out for my best interests. As usual, he went above and beyond what you would expect from a typical real estate agent. The home sale was smooth and hassle-free. I always recommend Jake to friends and family because I know they will be in good hands. Hire him with confidence."

ZillowVERIFIED Jake helped us sell our home that we built 30 years ago! We hired Jake because he lives in our neighborhood, so we knew that he would be looking out for property values & be determined to get the highest price possible. He did a great job with the marketing of the property and making things less stressful for us. We were very pleased with the way he handled the negotiations, both with the purchase price and with the agreement for repairs. We ended up selling for a new record price in our neighborhood. We would 100% recommend Jake to anyone looking to buy or sell in Ponte Vedra."

ZillowVERIFIED aEURoeWe had worked with Jake on a previous transaction and he was great to work with, so when it came time to sell our property this year we knew we could trust him to handle the sale. Jake did a great job with all of the marketing, and handled all of the offer negotiations very well. We ended up agreeing to a purchase contract that included ALL of the terms that we needed to make our move to our new home as smooth and hassle-free as possible. We would certainly work with Jake in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in NE Florida. He has a ton of experience and knows the local market extremely well."

ZillowVERIFIED Jake helped us sell our house in Marsh Landing and then purchase our new home in Jacksonville Beach. He has a way of making the process hassle & stress free, which is saying a lot when it comes to high-dollar transactions. We highly recommend his services if you are in the market.

ZillowVERIFIED Jake did a great job helping us relocate from New Jersey to Ponte Vedra. We were initially under contract on a house that had so many issues that we were no longer comfortable moving forward. Jake was not only able to get us out of that contract, but was also able to find us a great house to buy within a few days of cancelling the previous contract. We were very happy with Jake's services & professionalism, and we would gladly refer him to our friends and family in the future.

ZillowVERIFIED I was referred to Jake by a good friend of mine & have been talking to him about the market for the past year or soaEUR| I was at least a year away from wanting to buy when we first started talking, and I appreciated that he treated me the same way as someone that was ready to buy a house right away. He was very knowledgeable about the Ponte Vedra Beach market, there was never any pressure, and when the time came for me to act, he worked very quickly & efficiently to make the deal happen. The entire buying process from contract to closing was smooth & pain-free, which was a huge relief because I had a lot of other things going on at the time. If youre looking for the best real estate agent in Ponte Vedra you can stop your search here. Youll be happy you did!

ZillowVERIFIED Working with Jake was fantastic! We were not local and he went above and beyond for us, including last minute showings and FaceTiming with us.

We highly recommend him and would use him again if we had to move

ZillowVERIFIED Jake is a top-notch agent & we highly recommend him. In this highly competitive market, he not only helped us land the house we wanted, but we also referred him to two of our family members, and he successfully helped them secure the homes they wanted. 3/3 on our first choices for homes? In this crazy market? That takes a special agent for sure, and Jake is it.

We had a buyer back out of their purchase contract, and Jake was able to smoothly secure another contract within a day! He's an efficient problem solver & his experience in our market is evident. Highly recommend Jake's services for anyone looking to buy or sell in this crazy market

ZillowVERIFIED We were looking to relocate our family from NJ to FL. Jake was so helpful and within a few weeks we were able to find our house. He talked us through the pros and cons of the different areas we were looking at, helping us narrow our search to a few particular communities. Working with someone who really knew the area was so helpful especially coming from out of state. Jake was honest with us during the process and gave us his true opinions, which I really appreciated. Anytime something was listed that made sense for us, he sent it over right away. He answered texts quickly and was always available to talk. The closing went smoothly and being out of state, Jake went above and beyond his job to help us with the transition. Even after the closing, Jake is still a huge help as we continue with the moving process. He has offered to help in so many ways. Overall, I would highly recommend Jake and I am very thankful that we had such a friendly, knowledgable realtor to work with.

ZillowVERIFIED Jake understood very quickly what type of home I needed and wanted. He sent me open homes quickly and heard me when I said it wasn't a fit. My pickiness didn't bother him! Instead of "selling" me something that wasn't right for me, Jake continued to look and stay engaged until the right home was found. He understood what was needed for the offer including an introduction letter. I trust his advise about home issues, neighborhoods and offers.

ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I had been wanting to move to Sawgrass Country club for the past year or two, but with inventory so low we weren't having any luck finding the right property, or the right properties would be sold before we could even get in to see them. After almost losing hope, Jake sent us a property that just came on the market, and was available to go see the property for us & give us a tour via FaceTime, and then he worked with the listing agent to quickly get our offer accepted. The listing agent was already aware of other offers that were coming in, but Jake was able to convince him to accept our offer before it turned into a multiple offer situation (which would have significantly increased the purchase price). We are very happy & grateful that we had Jake on our side and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced agent in our market.

ZillowVERIFIED We found Jake mostly by chance and we are so happy we did. Moving to a new state isn't easy and trying to do everything from 1000 miles away can create a fair bit of stress. that is why we appreciated Jake's steady hand and calm, confident demeanor. He guided us through the process, was responsive and responded to everything we needed to do to find our Florida dream house. Thanks Jake!

ZillowVERIFIED Jake listed and sold my house in Marsh Landing last month. We got the property under contract within a couple days for full price, but the buyers ended up getting cold feet and backed out of the deal. Jake was able to get another full price contract done with different buyers the very next day. The process from start to finish was very well done and I highly recommend Jake to anyone that is looking for an exceptional real estate agent in our area.

ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I had been considering a move to Ponte Vedra for some time and had been looking at properties online prior to connecting with Jake. When we were in town for a short visit in April, I conducted a little research and we decided to give Jake a call. He was incredibly responsive and was able to accommodate our very limited schedule. Jake was very informative about the different areas and neighborhoods in PVB and was happy to give us the 'grand tour.' We quickly narrowed down the areas we were interested in before we left FL. We knew that finding the perfect home in PVB virtually from Maryland and in this challenging market was going to be difficult, however Jake assured us he could find it for us. And, he was right. Jake used his knowledge of the community, his real estate contacts, and his winning personality to find that perfect house and worked with us to build an incredible offer. Buying a home - especially from out of state - can be such a stressful ordeal and Jake has made it as easy and seamless as possible. We are very grateful and would recommend him 100%.

He has an incredible work ethic, customer service skills, and logical approach to real estate. We highly recommend Jake if you are looking for a home in the Ponte Vedra area.

ZillowVERIFIED Have you ever worked with a realtor that represented both parties and each walked away super happy and thinking they got a great deal? Yeah, i didn't think so. Neither had I until I worked with Jake. He's as good as they come! Better actually. I first talked to Jake in October 2019 while living in Kentucky. I decided to rent to get to know the area. Jake professionally followed up without ever pressuring me. He got to know me, my family, our changing needs (we didn't make it easy on him in that regard). He never waivered, never showed frustration, was always helpful. And when it came time to buy, it was the easiest experience I've ever had. Literally no stress.I could not recommend Jake more. You will be in great hands.

ZillowVERIFIED My husband and I were looking for a new construction home in Nocatee. Jake was very responsive to all my questions and would e-mail or text me back in a timely manner whenever I reached out to him. He was knowledgeable of the area, the lifestyle, the builders and their representatives. I highly recommend anyone looking for a home in the area to reach out to Jake. He is very responsive, without being pushy. We are just in the initial stages of our build and Jake has offered to go to the site when needed as we live over 300 miles away. I am looking forward to working with Jake throughout the process.

ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I were looking to move to Florida from NY. We had been looking at listings in the Ponte Vedra/Ponte Vedra Beach area and we came across Jake in that process. We were interested in existing and new homes. Jakes approach was very low pressure. He would send out meaningful emails about the purchasing process in Florida as it is different than New York. We had a short window (4 days) when we would be in Florida and he worked his busy schedule to accommodate us. He was extremely focused on our requirements and the homes he showed us were all in line with our interests. He showed us many homes. He never pushed us in one direction or another but always provided us with meaningful feedback when we had questions. He took us to see a builder in Nocatee on our second day and we fell in love with the home and lot. But we werent ready to consider it further as we wanted to look at the other options out there and do our due diligence. On our last full day in Florida we were not planning to have Jake with us. However, we decided last minute we wanted to look at other builders. When we contacted Jake to see if he can help us, he went out of his way to meet with us and lined up a few builders in Nocatee. He had other clients so he reworked the schedule to accommodate us. The builders we met with were trying to sell us on some lots that werent really a fit and Jake basically told them dont waste our time. He is very upfront, transparent and direct. That is exactly what we needed in an agent. That day Jake said to us if we can be patient he knows at some point he will find us exactly what we are looking for and he did not pressure us to buy anything while we were there. He said he will keep looking while we are back in NY and if he finds something he will go to the property and even FaceTime us a walk thru. My wife and I went back to NY and a day later we decided to go to contract with the home we fell in love with on the second day. When we told him about it, he said he will go to the lot and take pictures for us all throughout the building process. He already sent us a first round of pictures as promised. We look forward to working with him as our home is being constructed. We know we can always count on Jake and highly recommend him.

We were very comfortable working with Jake. He listened and showed us ideal homes for our wants and needs. Jake is very knowledgeable and has a aEURoeno high pressureaEUR? approach. We decided to buy a new home in Nocatee. Being from out of town, Jake kept us in tune with excellent communication. He sent us photos of the progress during the home build and met with the builder for inspections when we were not able to. The whole process was a pleasure. We highly recommend Jake Bestic for anyone selling or buying a new home.

ZillowVERIFIED Jake did a fantastic job! We selected him as our buyer's agent for several reasons. 1. He supports our children's elementary school through advertising and donations. 2. He specializes in the area. 3. He showed extensive market knowledge both in person when we first met, and online through his market update videos. He explained all of the details of the buying process in a patient and easy to understand manner. He was on our side throughout the negotiations and was able to secure a price lower than we even expected. Outstanding! Since we are new to the area, he also helped us navigate through all of the different service providers, and find the best inspector, insurer, etc. He even analyzed the financial quotes of several mortgage brokers/banks so we could find the lowest rate. He said he used to work for a mortgage broker, so this was a fantastic added bonus for us.Communication was excellent as Jake would get back to us super fast - almost like he slept with his phone, or didn't sleep :).I would definitely recommend Jake as a buyer's agent. When we first started looking for houses we thought about not even using a Realtor. Bad idea. Jake proved us wrong by helping us find the perfect house for our family, get a great deal on it, and actually enjoy the whole process.

ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I were interested in seeing properties in the Ponte Vedra/PVB area and Jake immediately reached out to us to get a better understanding of our needs. After our initial discussion, Jake set us up on the Coldwell Banker website with a search tailored to our specific search parameters. This was quite helpful since we are not from FL and helped us narrow the list of properties that we were interested in seeing. Upon arrival in FL, Jake met up with us and took us around the area showing properties that we flagged for followup even though he had a thought as to which we might like and those that probably weren't good candidates. We found Jake to be very knowledgeable about the area, flexible to our timing needs and very pleasant to work with. At bottom, we had a great experience with Jake and would recommend his services to anyone interested in his local real estate expertise!
