“Sold a Single Family home in 2021 in Cedar park, TX.
My first time selling a home was pretty hectic -- buyers dropping out of the sale at the last minute and then other buyer's being SUPER picky. I was just glad that I had Jake helping me out. I had to sell my house from afar due to time restrictions but I know that Jake would get the job done right. I am very appreciative of the time he took to reply to my many questions. I would highly recommend working with him! He will go above and beyond....and throw you cowboy emojis in your texts! Thank you Jake for all that you did for me during my stressful time!”

“Sold a Single Family home in 2017 in The provinces, Chandler, AZ.
Jake was absolutley amazing throughout the whole process. He started by showing my mother houses in AZ to relocate. We switched gears mid way and he listed my house with a short time frame before I moved my family of four back to Iowa. He was incredibly responsive, extremely knowledgeable, very patient, and motivated to get the job done. With a last minute big cross country move on my hands, he took care of everything in AZ including the weeds, some inspection repairs, checked frequently on our vacant home and even mailed us amazon packages that we hadn't updated our new address on. I trusted him from the very first time we met him and he over exceeded my expectations. He knew we were in a hurry to get it sold and he was wi”

This was my first time renting a Townhome and it was a great experience. I was referred to Jake Ando from a friend and he was extremely helpful. I did not feel pressured and it really seemed that he had my best interest in mind, which is hard to find in most agents. He was a call away if I had questions and always fit my untimely and last minute requests to view homes into his schedule. Great overall experience and agent.”

“Helped me rent a Condo home in North mountain, Phoenix, AZ.
I was referred to Jake through a former coworker of mine who had known him for several years. He spent several months working with my boyfriend and I to find the perfect home. He is one of the most patient, professional and attentive agents I have ever met- not to mention he is incredibly personable and easy to work with! We had a very particular "want" list for our home, and he sent us listing after listing, every single day, to ensure that we did not miss out on anything we might want to see! Although we are only renting for the time being, when we are ready to buy a home in the Valley, Jake is definitely the man we will be looking for!”
