“…above and beyond what any realtor should have to do.”

Jacob was an incredible realtor for my first home purchase! Not only was he able to send me multiple listings in our price point, but he actually listened to all the specific details we were interested in when buying a home. Jacob was efficient, responded quickly, guided us through every process, and helped calm the nerves multiple times during the purchase. Jacob was able to send multiple contractors to help get the house inspected and fixed for move in. What I loved most is how comfortable it was to work with Jacob. In my opinion, he went above and beyond what any realtor should have to do. Jacob even was able to stay in contact with my loan officer to ensure funding came through. In addition, he attended the signing/closing, helped answer confusing aspects, and was able to help me feel relaxed until the paperwork was complete! I highly recommend Jacob be everyone’s 1st time home buyer realtor because he just gets the job done. Thank you Jacob 10/10

“Jacob was patient and encouraging when we were thinking of postponing our search.”

Jacob was quick to arrange showings which was so important in the current market in which many homes sell in less than a week! Jacob was patient and encouraging when we were thinking of postponing our search. Jacob gave good advice when drafting the offer and throughout the inspection process and helped arrange and inspection quickly. My spouse and I ended up finding a home that is perfect for our family and we are very thankful for Jacob’s help!

“He's professional, quick to respond, knowledgeable, and just a great person all around.”

“I'd been talking with Jacob about purchasing my first multifamily property for about a year before pulling the trigger. During that time, he spent hours searching for deals, talking strategy and honing in exactly what I was looking for. We submitted offers on a few places and came very close to having our offer accepted. After a few attempts, I was on the verge of giving up for a while. There had been another duplex that I was interested in but had apparently gone pending without it saying so on Redfin or Zillow. Anyway, long story short, Jacob stayed on top of the progress of that deal, and when it eventually fell through, he was able to get me a tour and have my offer submitted ASAP. I'm now living in my first owner-occupied multifamily property and took that first step to build a real estate portfolio because of his skill and dedication.

If you work with Jacob expect that he'll go above and beyond for you. He's professional, quick to respond, knowledgeable, and just a great person all around. I can't recommend him enough.”

“His professional and upbeat attitude shone through at all times...”

Due to family changes, including my elderly mother moving in with us, we needed a home with very specific and somewhat rare requirements. It took us almost the entire year to find one that would work for us on all fronts. Jacob was extremely helpful at every turn, and he was able to eliminate or recommend many properties based on not only our obvious criteria but also subtle things that were hard for us to explain. He went the extra mile on many occasions, saving us countless hours of searching and visiting properties in this era of COVID. He also was exceptional as our selling realtor. His professional and upbeat attitude shone through at all times, and we were lucky to have him as our realtor. He's an effective hard-working pro and we are proud to offer our stamp of approval on his services.

“…superb listener and had a wonderful sense of humor, enthusiasm and steadiness.”

I want to highly recommend our real estate agent, Jacob Wathen from Uptown Properties. He had all the qualities one could possibly want in a realtor, most importantly, complete trustworthiness. He went above and beyond in his promptness, dependency, professionalism, and communicated immediately in every aspect of the transaction from before the listing to the closing. He priced the condo correctly for the market, had it staged well, with great photos. He knew all the tradesmen we needed to get the condo ready, painters, plumbers and handymen.

Jacob had that unusual combination of technical knowledge and an aesthetic vision. He was a superb listener and had a wonderful sense of humor, enthusiasm and steadiness. In this very strange time for real estate (as in the country and the world) he was able to navigate the perfect offer to the very first buyer who saw the condo! Afterwards, a representative from the HOA called to thank us for the terrific job Jacob did which she said stood out from other realtors who have sold units in this lovely, vintage building.

“Overall, he really helped keep the waters running smoothly and secured us our new home.”

Jacob was an incredible realtor to work with! My husband and I were still a few months out from diving head first into house hunting but reached out to Jacob to help get us started in figuring out what we could get for our budget. We received regular automated emails of listings from him but he also checked in with us occasionally until we were ready to really hunt for our future home.

Jacob arranged many a house showing for us and was always early or on time arriving. He was knowledgeable about the various neighborhoods we visited. Once we found a house we loved, he worked thoroughly with us and was extremely communicative throughout the buying process whenever unusual requests or complications came up with the sellers. Overall, he really helped keep the waters running smoothly and secured us our new home.

Even after the sale was completed, he has been a great resource for finding people to get jobs done around the house and we've been extremely happy with his recommendations for inspections, contractors, pest control etc.

Jacob has been an amazing agent to work with and we would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat!
