Jake is possibly the best Realtor I have worked with, I have found him to be very honest and he cares very much about what you are looking for where others might aggressively try to steer you toward the top end of your range. He has some background in banking as well as urban planning, he has deep knowledge of the French Quarter, he will have valuable advice for you.

Jake did an outstanding job showing me a property and convinced me to rent my first home in New Orleans. He was through in his showing, knew everything about the property, and answered all the questions I had with confidence. He is excellent and I have recommended his services to my friend and family.
