Don made my first home purchase feel easy. Being away from family I couldnt always get the input or advice I wanted from them but Don helped explain and break down each step and made the process not Newark as stressful as everyone makes it out to be. The hardest part was waiting for the closing date to come !
Don is knowledgeable about the ins and outs about selling homes. He was timely with his responses to any questions I had. I would gladly recommend him to any home buyer or seller.
Don is an excellent agent, and I cannot recommend him enough. He walked us through the entire process of selling our land from start to finish, communicated regularly and clearly, and was entirely professional and friendly throughout the sale. I was especially impressed with his attention to detail given this was a relatively small sale price lot. His expertise on Whidbey Island is outstanding.
My wife and I looked into buying our first house a while back but never truly expected to go through with the process. Don was referred to us through close friends for his professionalism and up beat attitude. Don went above and beyond for us before during and after the house buying process from showing us a virtual tour of our house before we were sure we wanted to tour it. He helped coordinate every milestone even while I was deployed. After we closed on the house Don was still there making sure everything was going smoothly. I am forever grateful for Don helping us purchase our first home. I highly recommend Don to any buyerS
I have nothing but great things to say about Don. He was proactive at every step of the process. He not only prioritized my interest as the buyer but also made sure I understood and felt comfortable with the home-buying process. As a first-time home buyer, Don's expertise was invaluable in making sure I felt at ease. Behind the scenes, Don worked tirelessly to get the deal done, while maintaining full transparency with what was going on. Furthermore, Don went above and beyond, even handling a small landscaping issue on his own dime. Don is true to his word when he says he operates by "the Golden Rule." He has a heart of service and that shines through in his work.
Don was AMAZING during the sale of our home. We were across the country and he went above and beyond to get everything set up and handled for us during the selling process. I could not have asked for more in a realtor. He is so kind and a great communicator! Highly recommend using his services!
Don Jaques was attentive and proactive when helping me sell my home. From the beginning he listened to my concerns, opinions and ideas then gave me his own, walking me through step by step with pros and cons. Don showed me how doing a bit of work on the property could net a larger profit. In the end that is what I did. During the process Don was just a phone call away. If I had any concerns or issues with ANYTHING he was there for support and offer options. If he had not heard from me for a several days, he checked in with me to see how things were coming along. Because of the support and attention to details (suggestions to fix things that could hold up a sale) the process of selling went smoothly and fairly quickly even with a slowing market.
I entered the market rather unexpectedly, during what turned out to be a historic and frightening time. Enter Don Jaques. He is a wonderful person who also happens to be a great real estate agent. He is a people person, who is caring, responsive, and can read people even when they aren't able to verbally communicate what they really want. He also shoots straight and helps keeping you focused and balanced. At the same time he gives you the room you need to be involved and be part of the team effort. Many client reviews are driven by emotion because someone found their "dream home." That was the case with us, but the review is for Don Jaques and the wonderful job he did. If you appreciate little extras and personal touches along the way, you won't be disappointed working with Don. He will exceed your expectations, and then some. Our purchase had the potential for obstacles for various reasons, and Don minimizes the stress in those moments when things seem uncertain. It's worth noting that COVID-19 did NOT negatively impact our purchase. Don did a great job of adapting as it was coming right out of the gate at the time we went pending. I'm confident that Don Jaques would provide the same service for anyone who is in the market to buy or sell a home. Thank you, Don for such a great experience, and we hope many others continue to have the pleasure of being able to be in good hands like us.
Working with Don has been the best experience and I've done it twice now! I continue to choose Don for my real estate needs because he absolutely cares about getting the best results for his clients. At the beginning of the process he asked thoughtful questions about our needs and goals and then designed a strategy for getting our home staged, marketed and sold. He communicated with us frequently and helped us navigate a swiftly changing market by providing the most current data and advice in order to make informed decisions on the price of our home. I am especially grateful for the attention he gave in providing feedback from other agents showing our home. When our home went under contract Don continued to serve us well. He communicated effectively with the buyer's agent and made certain that all the timelines were clear and every detail was attended to. Don celebrated our close with as much enthusiasm as we did. I found working with Don an invaluable asset when selling my homes in Oak Harbor. Thank you Don! Scott & Cynthia
Don did a wonderful job handling all aspects of the listing and sales process, was highly responsive, and flexible and able to address my unique circumstances. He enabled me to get a sale done efficiently and when I did not live in the area. I highly recommend Don - youll be well taken care of and your listing will be in good hands.
Don Jaques steered me every step of the way in preparing my home for a successful sale and in patiently explaining each step in the real estate process. If you are looking for a real estate professional who is caring, honest, and an excellent communicator AND one who delivers results, call Don Jaques. He's the right guy.
I was referred by word of mouth from my son Brian Marrs that Don Jaques is a "good guy". I recently had a stroke and Don explained everything (the process) in detail to me via emails and phone calls. At any time I could call him for a question, he would answer me promptly, kindly, and sincerely. I felt comfortable working with him and I feel I got the best sale from his work. I am satisfied and will recommend him.
Don handled every fact of this sell with professionalism and timeliness. Every detail of every step was well communicated, every piece of documentation was produced, and presented, with speed and accuracy. Aside from his professionalism, he is incredibly personable. I'd recommend Don to anyone needing a realtor. My family is for sure using Don for the next sell we have, and if you don't at least talk to him before selecting your agent, you're handicapping yourself.
Don worked so hard to handle all the problems, both small and large, regarding selling my home. He took care of contacting all the help and professional labor to take care of the problems with my 32-year-old home. He did this perfectly and kept the cost low. He worked with the buyer's mortgage company and cut through the red tape there, too. He made me feel that he was handling my property just as he would if it was his own property. Believe me, I am so happy I had him as my realtor!! I could not have done better!!
Working with Don was an excellent experience! He took his time to inform and educate us every step of the process of buying our house and made availability whenever we needed him to answer questions along the way. He was also honest and transparent with us about any possible negative aspects of potential houses and neighborhoods. We bought our house almost completely remotely, and Don went above and beyond to make it as seamless as possible by recording videos of potential houses, neighborhoods, and inspections.
Don helped me buy and sell my home. He is so effective, knowledgeable, and helpful. He helped me buy my first home when I didnt even know what that would entail. He walked me through all of it and with a smile. With selling my home, he was willing to do anything to help me get the house ready to sell. Don exceeds expectations and is great at what he does.
Don made the selling of my home the easiest process possible! He was always in constant communication with me, made sure I understood everything about the process, and would even make personal suggestions to help me with anything I needed. He treated me much more like a friend, than a business contract. I would use him for every real estate transaction in the future!
Our sale of our house had a couple to glitches and Don remained positive and encouraging. He was with us and explained what needed to be done. I would highly recommend Don his honestly and integrity are two of his highest qualities.
