About

I have lived in SW Michigan and the Kalamazoo area since 1965, when I came to attend Western Michigan University. I began my real estate career in October of 2012, after working in the business and production sector for 30 years.

As part of The Ron Ekema Team at RE/MAX Advantage, I work very closely with buyers and sellers to help educate them in every aspect of the buying/selling process. My mission is to serve buyers and and sellers to help them with a smooth transaction during one of the largest events of their lives, and to have a good working relationship with other Realtors in order to make that happen.

Throughout my career, I've consistently demonstrated a commitment to excellence and a passion for real estate. I've successfully facilitated numerous property transactions, from first-time homebuyers to seasoned investors, ensuring each client finds as close to their ideal property as possible.

Trusting your realtor

I was given one of the nicest experiences of my life when I was introduced to Jerry Slater and his team It was an excruciating time for me. My husband had passed away. I had an accident at work and was recovering from a surgery and I had this huge home for sale, which in of itself, they are more difficult to sell. Jerry and his entire team truly were outstanding. They took everything over they did everything for me. They went above and beyond what they would’ve had to do and they found a buyer for my home It was just about to go into foreclosure and this lady came along and fell in love with the house, and Jerry managed everything smoothly and professionally He and his team deserve an outstanding report for what they did for me because it was all work for their team and they did it wonderfully I’ve tell with so many realtors in my life and I cannot say that one of them was a positive experience so I was quite nervous but the first meeting with Jerry t

Very knowledgeable

Jerry was very patient and knowledgeable. The housing market was difficult at the time of my purchase and he had good ideas to help navigate it.

I first met Jerry when I relocated to the area for work. I initially was not looking to purchase, but to rent. Jerry was really personable and knowledgeable about the area, which I really appreciated, and that helped me decide to contact him when the decision to purchase came 6 months later. Jerry and his team worked tirelessly and was there every step of the way. I highly recommend!

Jerry is the BEST!

Jerry is knowledgeable, great communicator, and proactive when it comes to getting you to close on a property. He was patient with me during my search and showed me many, many...many properties before I settled on one. This is my second property that Jerry has helped me and my family close on. It's always a pleasure working with Jerry and would highly recommend him!

How home buying should be.

Jerry, his wife Rajean, and the entire Ron Ekema team were an absolute pleasure to work with. They made the purchasing process easy, fun, and informative without compromising on professionalism. If your in the market to buy or sell, this is the team you need.

The man the myth the legend

I would work with Jerry 100 times over, he’s on top of it! I can’t think of a single time I gave him more than 4 hours notice and he’s always made it work! I’ve recommended him to any and everyone I know looking for a new place Becuase he’s organized and prepared for anything!
