★★★★★
"As a first time home buyer, Jake was fantastic to work with. He helped navigate us through a heavy sellers market, providing thoughtful guidance throughout the process. He successfully brought us through the negotiation and purchase of a wonderful home. I would recommend him to any home buyer in the greater Boston area." - Anthony

★★★★★
"My husband and I had a fantastic experience with Jake, who guided us towards the purchase of our first home this past Spring/Summer. Having his support, knowledge, kindness and acumen with other brokers in negotiations made our first home buying experience very positive and smooth. He is quick to respond to inquiries and managed our offers quickly and efficiently, providing guidance so that we were both aggressive and comfortable in our purchase. We would recommend him to anyone looking in the Boston, North and South Shore areas." - Sarah

★★★★★
"Jake was extremely helpful in showing us a variety of apartments and taking all the necessary steps to assure we got the one we liked the most. He's a very friendly guy who is easy to get along with and is there to help you find the perfect apartment or home . I'd recommend him as a realtor to anyone and everyone." - Jeff

★★★★★
"I worked with Jake to find an apartment mostly in the Back bay and South End neighborhoods of Boston. I found Jake to be incredibly responsive, supportive, and knowledgeable throughout the process. No budget is to big or to small for Jake, and he'll take the time to go through every option. Jake was willing to met my fiancé and I at all hours of the day to look at apartments, always showing up on time and with a palpable excitement. The process of looking for an apartment can be long and frustrating but Jake never stopped sending us new and had no problem pivoting to our ever changing requirements. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable about Boston, and supportive of their clients , choose Jake." - William

"Jacob is a realtor? I thought he was a dream maker. Jacob brought such ease to the process of finding the perfect property in Boston and did it with a smile. Always checking in, always available, and always ready with a joke - he is not only great to work with but he has access to all the great properties in the city. I would highly recommend trusting Jacob with finding your next amazing home." - Lauren

About Jacob
To work in real estate is to put yourself in the middle of one of the biggest transitions in a person's life: growing families or empty-nesters, first-time homebuyers or seasoned investors, city-to-suburbs or suburbs-to-city. I routinely help clients beyond the buying/selling process and onto managing their renovations, renting out their investment properties, or introducing them to their new communities. More than anything, I value building a relationship that achieves each client's goals.

Like so many of my clients, as my family grew we moved out of Boston: a short drive from the city we love with enough space for three toddlers to run around. Working out of our Back Bay office, I'm as comfortable in my old city neighborhoods (Beacon Hill and the South End) as I am in the Metrowest suburbs where I grew up and now live.

Early on in my career, I began overseeing home improvement projects as a way to offer unique value to my clients. The more skills I gained, the more I could offer to my buyers, sellers, landlords and renters alike. (I even started completing pre-market renovation projects for many of my colleagues’ clients.) The initial “side hustle” has become an integral part of what I bring to the table– from small repairs to gut renovations, my team and I have helped round out dozens of real estate transactions.

I am a member of both the Greater Boston Association of REALTORS and the National Association of REALTORS. Outside of real estate, I am on the faculty of two Boston-area universities as an adjunct English professor.
