My husband and I were first-time home buyers and had a lot of questions about the process. Jason was so helpful and truly made it his mission to help us find the home we were looking for. He made home buying much less stressful. We can't recommend him highly enough!
Jason made our first home buying experience a breeze! We felt very informed and he was very patient in handling all of our questions as we made sure that we felt comfortable with our decision. Would absolutely recommend him to other buyers, both first-time and experienced.
Jason was extremely helpful with the sale of my home. I felt valued, respected, and thoroughly represented throughout my experience. The home was sold very quickly, and Jason made the process efficient, taking time to ensure all of my questions or concerns were taken care of. Even when an issue arose, Jason was extremely supportive and did everything he could to encourage me and help me to resolve it. One thing I greatly appreciated about him was how fast his response time is. If you want a respectable realtor who is reliable, fast, knowledgeable and honest, Jason is your guy! Thanks again, Jason!!
Jason's positive attitude, extensive knowledge of the local real estate market, and attention to detail make him a great realtor to work with! From the very beginning of the process of preparing our home for sale all the way to closing on our new home, Jason served as an expert guide and resource. His marketing skills are top notch and produced a great offer. His advice on property searches and negotiations was invaluable. We highly recommend Jason for all of your local real estate needs!
Just bought my first house through Jason, and I couldn't be more happy! Jason was very knowledgeable, available for when I had questions, and the most valuable as a first-time home buyer, SINCERE about good versus bad options. Highly recommended!!
There's no way we could have found our perfect home without Jason. He went above and beyond to do everything he could to make our experience wonderful and make sure we ended up with a home we loved. Trying to find and purchase a home can be super stressful, but with Jason helping us we had little to no stress through out the whole process. I would definitely recommend getting in contact with Jason if you're looking for a realtor. From the very first email reply and our very first phone call I knew he genuinely cared about helping us find the right home, and I knew he was the right realtor for us!
Jason was super knowledgeable about the Drake neighborhood, attentive and responsive to questions. His support was greatly appreciated throughout the buying process.
Jason is an awesome realtor! He was very nice to work with, and, even though I wanted to look at a lot of properties, he was very patient. Jason understands that you want to find the right house for your family. I would recommend Jason to anyone looking to find the right house to call home. Jason walked us through the entire process and made sure that we understand everything all the way through until close.
I would highly recommend Jason to help you buy or sell your home! My home sold in the first 24 hours and we found my new home within a week. Jason was very helpful in all aspects of the process and always responded to my questions very quickly and thoroughly!
Jason was a great realtor as he advised us in the purchase of our first home in Iowa. No pressure and attention to detail made it a very easy process. He is easy to deal with, a clear communicator, and knowledgable about the entire process from start to finish. We found our forever home, so hope to never have to call him again, but will definitely recommend him to others in the future!!
Jason was upfront and honest with every aspect of the process. He listened to my concerns and offered solutions. I felt we became friends. He felt open houses were Not the best use of time and I totally agreed.
Jason was amazing! He was very responsive and knowledgeable about the market. He was especially helpful when it can to helping us market an older home.
Interested in viewing a listing, but lacking representation - Jason was generous with his time and quickly made my request happen. I was so impressed with his seller representation of that house, that I asked Jason to represent my interests during my search. Not pushy or overbearing, Jason kept me informed of opportunities but let me proceed at my own pace. Once I found a house I was ready to put an offer on, Jason walked through all my options, helped me land on an offer price, and secured the deal in a few hours before anyone else had a chance to walk through the property. I'm very happy with my purchase and Jason's role in the process - I would absolutely recommend Jason and his expertise for your home selling/buying experience.
Jason was great! He never rushed us to sell or buy, and was always willing to show us all of the houses that we wanted to see, no matter what day or time! He has great professional relationships who help stage your home and take really nice photos of your home to sell. He really understood what we were looking for and helped negotiate our closings professionally and quickly! I highly recommend Jason!
Selling your house is HARD. It can be physically, mentally and emotionally exhausting. Nothing prepares you for the process. You truly need a realtor who knows the entire process from start to finish. Jason was not only our realtor, but our therapist, financial advisor, legal advisor, personal decorator, marketing manager, AND MORE. He had wonderful referrals (because of the relationships he has built) for us to for a lender that made buying our next home an easy stress-free process, a stager who helped us clean house and photographer who marketed our home beautiful. He was there for us in an INSTANT if we needed anything and was always there to listen to our wants and needs and explain the entire process. Even AFTER selling our house and buying a new house, he is STILL there checking in on us and making sure we are happy with our new house. He advocates for our neighborhood and truly understands the needs of his clients. Though selling your house can be VERY exhausting, Jason makes the process MUCH easier on your mind and wallet!
I'm so thankful that Jason was our realtor! My husband and I used him to purchase our first home and he made the process painless. He was very informative and definitely helped guide us through the process. He even went as far as to take time off from his holiday to show us three homes last minute! Had he not done that I wouldn't be sitting in our new house as I speak!
Jason helped us buy an older home in Des Moines and we really valued his knowledge of the area and the value of the homes we were targeting. He did a great job keeping us informed about what would come next in the buying process and answering all our questions. It's a tricky time to be a buyer and we're glad he was one our side to help us navigate the market.
My husband and I were nervous to start the home buying process but working with Jason makes it a breeze. We like his communication skills and that we can always reach him!
Working with family can be difficult at times. However, Jason (or my brother) couldn't have been more professional when my husband and I were ready to look at houses. Jason and I have very different housing preferences but I never felt that he was pushing us one way or another.. My husband and I were just "looking" at a house when we determined it was one we didn't want to let go. In less than 24 hours we had a deal in place! Multiple questions were asked (day and night) and he was always quick to respond. Jason was the listing agent on my old place and sold in LESS THAN A WEEK!!!!! I couldn't recommend Jason more, not only as an awesome brother but as an amazing realtor!!!
Jason was great to work with as a first-time homebuyers! He was always available to answer our questions and requests to see propertiesaEUR"and we saw quite a few over several months. He honestly answered with his opinions as we asked about pricing, locations, etc. I will absolutely recommend him to any friends I know looking to buy or sell in the Des Moines area!
Jason was incredibly easy to work with, was very patient with us on our decisions, and was always advocating for us to get exactly what we wanted out of our first home. He had great insights into the process and had great recommendations for services that helped us through inspections and even our mortgage.
Jason helped my wife and I both sell our home and buy a new home and we could not be happier with him. He was always there for us even on weekends, late nights, and when he was out of town. My last experience with a realtor was a personal friend and I was worried about getting a new stranger to help me with buying and selling a home but Jason did nothing but treat me with the respect and kindness that I would expect from a friend. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone.
Jason was excellent! Knowledgeable and personable. Made the house hunting and buying process easy by answering all of our questions and setting up several showings for us. Highly recommend!
Jason helped my wife and I sell our house on the south side of Des Moines. He was very responsive, got us great deals on the purchase and sale of the home and went above and beyond to help us with some needed repairs during our sale while we were out of state. I highly recommend Jason!
Jason was wonderful from start to finish. We first contacted him a year ago when we were looking to buy. When we finally found the perfect place a year later he was still there giving use great advice and helping us every step of the way. He was always honest, direct, and friendly. Jason was never pushy or itching for a sale; he let us lead the way and offered feedback as we needed it or asked. We can't recommend him strongly enough. Great shoes, too.
Jason was great to work with as first time homebuyers! He led us through the whole process of buying our dream starter home! He was very honest with us and gave great advice while searching for homes. Jason worked around our schedules and was always available to answer questions. We look forward to working with him again in the future!
Jason is an awesome realtor! He was very nice to work with, and, even though I wanted to look at a lot of properties, he was very patient. Jason understands that you want to find the right house for your family. I would recommend Jason to anyone looking to find the right house to call home. Jason walked us through the entire process and made sure that we understand everything all the way through until close.
This was our first home purchase, so we had absolutely zero experience. Jason helped us every step of the way and made the whole process very simple and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend Jason to anyone and everyone I know!
Jason is very professional and a great person to work with. He worked tirelessly and quickly to help us find the perfect home. I would/will recommend Jason to anyone looking for a home.
Jason was fantastic to work with and made the process very simple and care free on our end. Jason always made sure that we were always taken care of and happy with how closing and everything went. He always put us first and was always interested in what we specifically wanted. I would definitely recommend Jason to anyone that's looking for a real estate agent. As a first-time home buyer, it was so awesome working with a realtor that wasn't pushy and had only our interests in mind.
My fiance and I used Jason when looking for our first home. Jason was a huge help in explaining the process to us since we had never purchased a home before. Jason listened to our wants and needs in a house and was able to find us our dream first home extremely quickly. I would highly recommend Jason for any of my friends and family.
Jason has been working with us for many months to find ther right house for us. He was always available when we wanted to see a house. He very graciously answered every question we had about the entire home buying experience, clear through the final signing a And after. He was always very professional and courteous. We would highly recommend Jason for anyone's house buying experience. He helped my son and daughter-in-law find their home and he helped us find our perfect forever home.
I moved back to Des Moines after living 40+ years in another city. I relied on Jason's expertise in knowing the neighborhoods and market. He quickly responded to my questions and requests to view homes, and adjusted to my ever-changing priorities: city, suburb? renovate, move-in ready? tiny, sizable? He also worked to get me into homes ASAP, which was necessary in a seller's market. Jason also helped with the transition in general, by offering a move-in checklist and lots of contacts for everything from movers to tree trimmers.
Jason was great! He was friendly and very helpful in buying my first home and answering any questions or concerns that I had during the process. I'll definitely be using him again if or when I decide to sell and buy another home.
Jason is an experienced professional who I am so glad was on my side during my first home purchase process. He is extremely knowledgeable on the market and area. I really appreciate how no question was too dumb to ask and also him taking the time to walk me through something a second time if I still needed help understanding something. Another aspect of working with Jason that I really appreciated is his honesty in sharing his thoughts and feedback on houses when we looked at them. Jason is a serious professional who keeps the process fun and as stress free as home buying can be! Will be working with him again if/when I move again.
Jason saved my butt when I had another so called realtor drop out a few hours before a scheduled meeting to put an offer in on a house, on a Sunday, before a federal holiday. He made time within a few hours of my call to help me get the offer in. I didn't get that house but he helped me find a better one when that offer wasn't accepted, along with finding a great financing company that I will always be thankful for. It was a rough time in my life and by him helping me find a house he helped me move forward to a better life.
Super patient with us as we were making our decision! He made the home buying experience really enjoyable and would reach out to him if we were to biy and sell again!
AWESOME guy to work with. Very laid back, honest, and not pushy like most realtors. He was very helpful through my buying and selling process. I would and will Definitely be using him in the future and recommend him to everyone i know!
Jason was super helpful. He gave us solid information and really helped us see the big picture as first time home buyers. He was really fast at responding to calls, emails and texts. Highly recommended.
I have known Jason for years and always known him to be a hard worker. When it came time for us to purchase our first home, I couldn't think of anyone I would rather work with. Jason went all over the DSM and surrounding areas with us, even from Indianola to Ankeny in one day. He is a very popular realtor and busy guy, but what I liked MOST in working with Jason is no matter how busy he is, he makes you feel like you are his only client. His responsiveness and knowledge are impressive. He was right there with us through the process, answering our endless questions, and explaining things as they happened. Buying your first home is exciting, but is also scary when you don't know what you are doing. He definitely makes that part much easier. I felt he was honest, upfront, and really knew his stuff. Highly recommend.
We have now purchased two homes through Jason and also used Jason to sell our first home. Jason is very responsive and great to work with. He is super knowledgeable of the Des Moines area and is upfront and honest with the whole process. Our first time using Jason we were first time home buyers and Jason was great about answering all of our questions and explaining the process. The second time around Jason was just as thorough and also recommended a great lender for our purchase. We highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a great experience with home buying or selling. Jason is personable, professional and great to work with. We absolutely love our home that Jason negotiated for us. Jason, thank you so much for the great experience! The Carlo's
Pre-hunting: 10/2015-4/2016 We first got in touch with Jason in October 2015. We had a poor experience with a prior agent that did not respond to us in a timely fashion, so we started to search on Zillow ourselves for properties that we were interested in. Thankfully, Jason came to our attention as a sellers agent; Jason Immediately impressed us by his honesty and the thorough information that he provided in his responses. His responses were always prompt. In the 6 months between our first contact in October 2015 to our house hunting trip in April 2016, Jason responded to every single one of our questions, no matter how small those questions were. House hunting trip, 4/2016; House close, 6/2016 We appreciate Jason's great work ethic during our house hunting. His experience and competence as an agent were probably the main reasons that we were able to live in our current beautiful house. Jason was especially good at working under stress. We lived 3 hours away from Des Moines in Kansas City. Due to my husband's work schedule as an ER physician, we were only able to drive up to Des Moines for two days. With Jason's help, we made two offers within 24 hours as first-time home buyers, on two houses that we really liked. And the latter one got accepted; After the first offer got rejected (which was only rejected due to our request of a later closing day), Jason continued to work tirelessly, and by this time he showed exceptionally well that he understood what we needed. He recommended a house to us at 11pm on the same day. That house was not one that we had found on our own through our research, but it turned out to be exactly what we were looking for. After the seller accepted our offer, the house inspection, negotiation, and final walk-through and closing all went smoothly with Jason's step-by-step advice. He even sent us a list of things to complete before moving in, including how to call utility companies and tips on changing our official address, on our way to close the house in Des Moines. We agree with what many of the previous comments mentioned: buying a house is stressful, but a good agent can simplify the whole process and make it so much more enjoyable. Post-moving: 8/2016-present Jason continues to stay in touch with us after we moved in. He checks in with us once in a while. When we reflect on the whole house buying experience, we realize that Jason was not the pushiest agent. If you need a aEURoeparentalaEUR? agent to tell you what to look for and make the critical decisions for you then he is not the one. He is not especially aggressive during the negotiation process either, but we are happy with the house that we moved in and the price that we paid. We appreciate how laid-back Jason was. He spent two whole days with us but he always stepped away from us for lunch breaks and allowed us to have plenty of time and flexibility to discuss with each other. We also enjoyed how kid-friendly Jason is. Jason is a father of two sons himself so he is very nice to our five-year old son during the whole house hunting process. It might not be important for every family and Jason might not considers it as his main strength anyway. But bringing a young child to look around 5-6 houses a day in a new city is not an easy task. Having such a nice and kid-friendly agent is definitely a big bonus for us.
I can not say enough good things about Jason. He is the guy you want by your side when you buy a home. Not only is he professional, easy going and straight forward. The relationship does not end on closing day. I bought my home over a year ago, I still send messages to Jason requesting home project recommendations, advice, anythingaEUR|. He reads and responds within minutes!!!! And he has never steered me wrong. He also sends out reminders of "things to do" for whatever season. He cares about people and helping them in this process. When I plan to upgrade, I will list with him and when I buy, I will buy with him. He and his lovely wife are beyond genuine and pure. Amazing people!!!!
We started working with Jason in 2015 to find a house for our new family. Jason was very helpful in getting the process started. He referred us to the Tyler Osby team for mortgage information and received a free first time home buyers workshop. Once we got onto the buying path Jason was very helpful in providing us access to the Des Moines area MLS to search for homes we liked. Being the first time looking for a home there were a lot of homes that we looked at in the beginning that were not a perfect fit. Jason kept an open-mind and always asked us what we liked and didn't like after a showing. After a few showings we were able to get a better list of criteria for our perfect house together. Finally we found what we thought was the perfect house. We sat down with Jason in a comfortable office setting and completed all of the paperwork. Jason was open to answer any questions we had. Jason referred us to a home inspector, which I am glad he did. After the home inspection we found out that the house had several problems equating to several thousands of dollars to repair. Jason worked with us and the seller to try and rectify the situation, however ultimately we withdrew our offer. Thanks to Jason's ability as a realtor we were only out the cost of the home inspection. After another month or two we found another house that we really liked. We fell in love with the house after the showing. Again we worked with Jason to complete all of the paperwork. Leading up to closing day Jason was very helpful in answering any questions we had. We are very happy to have met and had the opportunity to work with such a kind, approachable, and helpful realtor. We recommend Jason Stuyvesant to anyone looking to purchase a house in the Des Moines area. You will not be disappointed.
Jason made the buying process very easy. He kept us on schedule to close on time. He's very knowledgeable and familiar with the area. I will for sure work with him again.
Jason made a difficult process very easy for my sister and I. Both our parents have passed away and we were responsible for selling the home we had grown up in. Jason's professionalism and kindness made the process easy. He listed the home on a Sunday and we 2 offers within the first 24 hours. Thank you Jason.
Jason is definitely a professional realtor, I could tell he did his homework on this property, he walked me through the whole process from beginning to endaEURc showed me the property and answered all my questions, I felt as if he was on my side. I feel VERY FORTUNATE to have gotten this property). aEURc he's my Real Estate agent for life, Thank You Jason! Earl Crouch
Jason is a superb real estate agent. From the beginning, he made us feel comfortable with the process. Jason is very knowledgeable, but I especially appreciated that when he didn't know the answer to a question, he went out of his way to find an answer for us. He made the sale of our house easy, helped us get a good deal on our new house, and when things get complicated, he went above and beyond his responsibilities to make sure that the deal got done. I tried to think of some constructive criticism for Jason and came up with only one item: I can count at least 3 times during our sale process that he was over 15 minutes late to a scheduled appointment. While this was a minor inconvenience, I'm certain that this was a reflection of him doing his best to schedule meetings and showings at a time that worked best for us. We would definitely recommend Jason to anyone wanting to buy or sell a house in Central Iowa.
Jason was very helpful throughout the process of selling our house, and finding a new home. He was quick to answer any questions we had, and always kept us informed of the details while we were waiting to close.
I had a great experience with Jason! He was very quick to respond about places I was interested in. I probably wouldn't have gotten my house without his quick turnaround time. I never felt rushed or pressured and he was great about answering my questions and offering useful opinions when needed.
