My husband and I worked with John and Jacob to buy our new home, and sell our current. If we could give 10000 stars we would. Throughout the entire process we experienced nothing but top notch communication, support, and expertise from them both. John was an expert negotiator when purchasing our new home - and in this market in GR, this became the difference maker in getting the second home we laid eyes on. When it came to selling our home, Jacob was swift in replying to agents with interested buyers, and helping us navigate the sale (as first timers). We never once felt left behind, forgotten, or had unanswered questions. It's safe to say we will recommend John and Jacob to any and all our friends, family, and colleagues who are looking for A+ agents in the GR area. We cannot thank them enough for their help!!

“The detail he gave us through the selling process resulted in multiple offers and a higher sale price then what we listed. He told us ahead of time if we followed his direction that would happen. He was right. We continue to use him as our realtor because of his honesty, integrity,
confidence, and dedication to finding us the perfect fit.
We couldn’t be happier with our choice."

"Jacob Rolf is great to work with. Honest, genuine, personable, and professional. He had my home sold in less than a day above asking price. He makes what can be a painful or difficult process worry-free."
