This was the second home we sold with Jim and he did not disappoint us. Jim was always available, understands your needs and puts them before his needs. He keeps in constant communication and is extremely patient and professional. I highly recommend Jim.

Whether you are new to purchasing/selling homes or you've been doing it for along time, I highly recommend Jim Acklin as someone you want apart of your buying/selling experience. Jim understands the in's and out's of what it takes to buy/sell homes. He listens to my needs and goes beyond what I would expect for a realtor to do. He cares about me and gives his honest opinion when I ask. I will use Jim 100% as my realtor on my next home purchase.

He is the only broker I would ever use because his level of expertise and professionalism can be surpassed by none

Jim Acklin knew that we had to sell my house without putting up a yard sign as it was a life or death matter and he handled it and got the house sold pretty much without advertising except for online he is just my guardian angel

Jim Acklin is above and beyond patient he is knowledgeable he is respectful he is a good person and you feel that from the first time you've met him he will be my real estate agent for as long as he is in the business and I will recommend him to everyone I know

Was the easiest best thing I've ever done and I owe it all to Jim Acklin

Very knowledgeable. Gave us plenty of options in what we were wanting.

Made us feel like we were his only butter
Buyer. Very attentive and easy to contact.

I've already referred Jim Aklin to friends and will continue to do so. Worked hard to find us a house in our range with what we wanted. Will definitely use in the future if needed.

Jim is awesome. I worked with him when buying this house. It took 6 months to find this house. Jim stuck by the process the whole time. When it was time to sell, naturally, I thought of Jim to help. He got the house listed and sold quickly. His online tools were extremely helpful since I was moving across the country.

I had a family member who had used Jim in the locating and purchase of their home. My wife and I also had a few friends who had used Jim and highly recommended him. He was very professional, helpful and always willing to answer our questions no matter how small or what hours we had them.

When we needed to sell our home Jim came to our house and explained to my wife and I what we needed to do and what we didn't need to do to get our home ready to sell. This was very helpful in saving us time and money in getting our home on the market. Once our home was on the market we had offers coming in right from the start.

We had found the home we wanted, in the area we wanted and we told Jim that was the house we wanted and he helped make it happen.

Jim was very helpful and we would highly recommend him to anyone we know looking for a house or wanting to sell one.

Jim was referred to me though and an associate whom I was doing business. He was always available whenever I needed him and he did not pressure me into anything as he knew I was making sure that I was making the right decision for myself. I feel comfortable referring him as I plan to use him again at some point in the future.

Jim Acklin did an amazing job at understanding my personal situation. He worked diligently throughout the entire process, allowing me to be as headache and stress free as possible from start to finish. Being that he was very knowledgable in the field, it gave me a peace of mind knowing that I had someone I could trust to handle the selling of my house while I was clear across the country. Furthermore, I could always count on him to answer at the drop of a hat when need be and assist with any questions or concerns that I had along the way. I truly feel that I wouldn't have been able to get through the process of selling my house if it weren't for Jim's experience/expertise, professionalism, and superior customer service.

Due to the circumstances of the selling of my property, it wasn't the easiest to deal with or go through. One had to have a lot of patience and persistence in order to remain positive and optimistic that it would eventually get sold, which were things that I sometimes lost sight of throughout the process. However, Jim Acklin remained positive and helped guide me and assure me that we were going to get it done. His reassurance is what kept me afloat throughout the process. Nonetheless, I am very grateful to have had an amazing broker who genuinely cares about my situation and my well being and didn't make me feel like this was just another sale for him. He's a standup guy that I would use/refer his expertise over and over again.

Jim understood all of our needs. He was very knowledgeable, understanding, and always responded as if I was his only client. I always felt like he had nothing to do but cater to our needs. I did a simultaneous close for the sale of my old house and the purchase of my new house and Jim made sure that everything went smooth and got us in our new home on time. I could not be happier with his service level and will recommend him to all.

Jim Acklin did a wonderful job helping us find a house that we love. He was patient and went with us to look at multiple possibilities even though we were looking outside of the city. He was great at explaining all the steps along the way and helping me understand the processes of buying in today's market.

Thank you,
Deborah
