Closing the sale matters, but more important is having a trusted advisor in your corner who has your back every step of the way and is able to keep you safe from potential pitfalls.
Reach out if you want to talk about selling your home, buying a property, investing in real estate, or learning more about your local community.
“We shared our long list of must-haves with Jacob. He found the property that fit the list to a tee and sent it to us the moment it hit market. He ensured that we wrote the perfect offer to get it closed and we moved in 3 weeks! We will recommend Jacob to everyone in the market.”

His insider knowledge on local real estate conditions and what it takes to get an offer accepted made navigating a white-hot market much easier. Additionally, his thoroughness, attention to detail, and ability to clearly explain every step of the process ahead of time gave me much more confidence throughout, especially as a first time homebuyer. For anyone looking to get an edge in the DSM home market, I would definitely recommend Jacob Simon's services!”

It was awesome to have Jacob on our side and I would highly recommend him.”

“Jacob was an amazing agent for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, Jacob has an unbelievable knowledge of the industry, the market, and the local area. As a first time homebuyer, I had a multitude of questions and Jacob always had answers for me. He explained things is an easy-to-understand way, helping to put my worries to rest and make me as informed as I could be before making a great life-changing decision. Jacob is extremely hardworking, always available day or night to answer my questions, continuously trying to find me my dream home in a market where supply/inventory was not always what it has been historically. Jacob went the extra mile to make sure I found the perfect place for me, even if it meant going on 25+ different showing. Jacob's dedication to his clients and assuring their satisfaction is a model that all agents should try to emulate in their work.”

“Jacob Simon was very thoughtful and patient while in the process of a home selection. He was always able to secure a showing very quickly when I showed interest in a home to view. He was not over-bearing in trying to sell but gave valuable thoughts and opinions when asked. Paperwork was always explained and Jacob Simon would let me know when documents were headed my way to preview. He was always readily available to explain anything I was not clear on. I could not imagine having dealt with a more patient and thorough and genuinely kind realtor than Jacob Simon! I will definitely recommend Jacob Simon to anyone I know that is buying or selling their home for a quality experience!”
