talks the talk AND walks the walk!

We interviewed Jacob to see how he would go about selling our property. He said a lot of things that we wondered if they were achievable. After engaging his services, Jacob lived up to everything he said he would. Jacob exceeded our expectations and sold our unit within a month in trying market conditions. His communication skills and professionalism are a breath of fresh air. Yes we definately would use Jacob again to sell a property and would highly recommend him.

Cottage Sold after a couple of open homes

Jacob had a well thought out strategy for what would bring me the best results in the shortest amount of time. Jacob quickly adapted to feedback on what information I required and what I would deem superfluous. Jacobs initial consultation and ideas on how to stage my cottage certainly assisted with the sale. His attention to detail and overcoming obstacles are a credit to both himself and the agency lucky enough to employ him. I would have no hesitation in recommending Jacob and I will definitely engage his services next time.

Review of Jacob McKenna by Michelle B

Jacob really knows real estate and how to present properties. By following his advice we were able to present our property in it's best light. His architectural background gave us valuable insights into the market and likely buyers. He also has excellent personal skills. He was patient, attentive to our needs and an excellent negotiator. His positivity, enthusiasm, negotiation and hard work were invaluable in finding the perfect fit for us in terms of a buyer. We were selling the house our parents had lived in for the past seventy years ( and our childhood home) so we were also really appreciative that Jacob gave us the space and time we needed to negotiate with our siblings and their families to achieve a sale price and conditions we were all happy with. Well done Jacob!!!!!!!

When Only The Best Will Do

It is with much pleasure we give this review for Jacob McKenna. After speaking with many real estate agents it became clear Jacob possessed the attributes desirous of a true professional; a trusting, genuine, knowledgeable, pleasant communicator with an exceptionally high standard of marketing and negotiating skills necessary for both vendors and purchasers. Jacob secured a contract for our property within weeks of it going on the market, attaining our asking price, and kept us informed throughout the sales process; we had nothing to worry about. There is no other real estate agent to consider when it is time to sell our other properties, and we look forward to a continued successful real estate relationship with Jacob. A truly honourable person in the dubious field of real estate. Thank you Jacob, we can’t recommend you highly enough.

Great agent we would use again

We used Jacob to sell our investment propert and would definitely use him again! He was very helpful from the beginning with property analysis and strategy right through to marketing, negotiations and the final sale.

Professional friendly servitude

When we first approached Jacob he showed interest from the very start and was humble in attitude patiently allowing us to make the decision to engage his service as our real estate agent to sell our house at the time when we were flooded with many real estate agencies. We gained confidence in Jacob throughout the whole selling process as he provided valuable resources keeping us informed and up to date on real estate issues and joy of knowing things that were important and interesting . We felt Jacob was there with us personally even when not present physically because we could trust him working behind the scenes providing peace for us that we had someone to fully rely on. It seemed to us that Jacob worked beyond the normal "business" hours for us. Listening to us, working with our concerns, applying workable solutions, giving great ideas all in a gentle and polite manner. Jacob truly helped us in many ways and finally the joy at the end to give us a happy sale price at the right time.

It won't sell they said!!

We would like to personally thank Jacob Mckenna for his professionalism and perseverance. We lost faith in our previous agents and we thought our property would never sell. That was until we got a phone call from Jacob, and after much negotiations he had our property SOLD in a fraction of the time. Our faith in Jacob has lead us to sell one of our other properties. and we will continue to refer our friends and family to Jacob.

Stressful times

As one could imagine, the selling of one's home which has been in the family for almost 70 years is a big decision. It is even more stressful when as the seller's brother I am interstate some 970km away. Right from the start, I have felt comfortable that my sister has been dealing with someone genuinely interested in his work, and with excellent market knowledge. This has greatly reduced the anxiety around the selling process. My sister and I found Jacob to be of outstanding character, and his approach was very professional. We both thank him for his efforts in securing a great price for the house.

the house that wouldn't sell

Jacob took on my house and He had no idea what Lat ahead". We went thru fallen contracts, builders reports that made rooms short of legal height by an eyelash. You get that. He forged on and sold my house which has been empty for nearly nine months. My previous agent could not even get a contract on paper. Finally I changed to Jacob and the house is sold. Good job. You are a wonderful communicator and a pleasure to work with.
