    Jake is amazing at what he does and hes a very nice person. Jake is professional, responsive, creative and ready to do whatever it takes to get the job done. His breathe of experience and work ethic was very appreciated and welcomed. He was a pleasure to work with and sold our home in under a month! No problems or drama, I highly recommend him to sell your property.

    Choose Jake as your selling agent or buying agent if you want to work with a dedicated professional who will give you the competitive advantage in any phase of the real estate market. Going above and beyond to get any real estate transaction to closing has a life changing impact on many families. My fiance and I saw this first hand when I bought my home with Jake representing us. While home buying is typically a stressful and emotional process, Jake is now more than just our real estate agent for life, but a friend and someone I can count on for any advice. I highly recommend Jake as you real estate agent!

    Jake was extremely helpful and knowledgeable during the whole process. I was a first time home buyer and Jake made me feel very relaxed and made the entire process very easy for me. His communication and professionalism are beyond the norm. He?s very aware and in touch with the market conditions and knows the right time to make certain moves. He has a great network of people working with him including lenders, that will make your home buying process a breeze. I couldn?t recommend Jake enough, and I continue to refer him to all my family and friends that are considering buying or selling a home.

    Jake is one of the most dedicated professionals in the area. He will take the time to meet, review and explain every detail of the home buying process. He is also one of the best when it comes to nailing down a price point for an offer that is aggressive and realistic. I would recommend Jake to anybody who is in the market to buy or sell a home.
