    About Jonathan Gorgas

    Real Estate Experience Upper Saranac Lake More than twice the transactions on Upper Saranac Lake than any other real estate salesperson in the last five years. Waterfront Sales Multiple transactions and listings on surrounding water bodies, including; Rainbow Lake, Lake Clear, Lake Flower, Spitfire Lake, Ausable River, Saranac River, Gull Pond, Chazy Lake and Eagle Lake in the Blue Mountain Lake area. Residential Sales Significant number of residential sales from Westport, Lake Placid to Tupper Lake, and north to Malone, with a focus on the Saranac Lake area. Vacant Land Sales Sold parcels ranging in size from a third of an acre to over 200 acres throughout the northern Adirondacks. About Me I was born in Northern New Jersey, but was transplanted to Saranac Lake at young age. Growing up in the playground of lakes and mountains was certainly a blessing! After graduating from Paul Smiths College with a degree in forestry, I built a successful property management business, which naturally led to a fulfilling career selling real estate. I live on a large property in the "boonies" and enjoy ice fishing and making maple syrup with my wife and three children.

    Jonathan is very knowledgeable about the real estate process and the Adirondack region in general. He is an outdoor enthusiast, has lived here most of his life, and is able to provide detailed information about any local area. He is involved in the community, providing valuable geographic, political, and regulatory particulars about each municipality. Equally important, he is honest, professional, and fair, and has good working relationships with other people in the industry.

    Jonathan was wonderful to have as our realtor when we were buying our new home. His knowledge and expertise in the local market were instrumental in assisting our relocation to a new state. His thoroughness helped us to negotiate the best price possible and ensured we didn?t run into unforeseen obstacles in the future. We appreciated his quick responses and friendly demeanor.

    Jonathan did an outstanding job finding us the perfect home. He was gracious and low pressure. He knows the area like the back of his hand. Both by land and by lake :). We have recommended his services to family and friends. We now consider Jonathan a friend.

    Jonathan found me my dream getaway near Loon Lake. I wasnt even familiar with the area until he showed me this house, and I could not be happier. We contacted him in may, saw the house in June. Agreed on a contract by late june and closed in July. it was efficient and professional. I would highly recommend Jonathan for your transaction.

    The first thing that impressed us about Jon was how quickly he responded to our inquiry regarding a piece of land on Upper Saranac Lake. His knowledge of the area and market became apparent as we considered properties. His attentiveness to our needs allowed us to feel secure and enjoy the buying experience. We would highly recommend Jon to anyone buying or selling real estate in the Adirondacks!!!!
