I thought Jake was very personable and friendly. Unfortunately I had to do most of the legwork, following up on things that should have been handled by him.
I had sell and buy houses several times. This is the first time that I feel agent fee is really worthy. Jake is the most professional agent I have met. In the transaction process, we met several tricky problems. Jack is so experienced that he gave perfect solution which makes both buyer and me satisfied. The house is sold at decent price within 3 days with offer coming in. And the close procedure only lasts one month. Jack makes every step clear and transparent. And I also would like to applaud his assistant Cynthia. She always responds timely and make things organized. They are really an excellent team to work with. I strongly recommend Jack's team to any friend who plans to sell or buy houses in Iowa.

Loved working with Jake! Helped us all the way through the first property we were going to buy, then after that one didn’t work out helped me get something different! Jake was very helpful in all aspects all the way from when I first reached out just simply inquiring about homeownership.

He is very friendly, very responsive for any questions. Went out of box to help me with my concerns or questions and provided valuable advice. He is more like a friend , well wisher to me now than a normal realtor agent. I’m very Lucky to have Jake at my side. Thanks Redfin for having a valuable asset like Jake.

Exceptional and thoughtful service from day one and right up through the closing.
Jake has been an outstanding real estate agent for me and my family. We feel lucky we’ve met him in this challenging journey of buying our first house from out of state. Jake went above and beyond to communicate our needs to the seller and to make this experience a « great » experience. We didn’t gain a real estate agent moving to Des Moines, but we also gained a good friend. I would recommend Jake to anyone looking for a good real estate agent with expansive experience in the area.

Jake came prepared to support our sale of our townhome in Ankeny. We were remote and he made it his priority to ensure things were handled even if he had to do it. We recommend using Jake and Redfin if you are selling in Des Moines.
Jake was great to work with ! Throughout the process he kept me informed of any delays from the sellers disposition, and what to expect along the way. He is a great communicator and listened to my concerns and gave insightful advice on how to proceed. I’m a Very satisfied customer. Thank you to Redfin and Jake !

I very much enjoyed working with Mr. Stanton, he is very knowledgeable about the whole process of buying a home, ensuring a great location, house value, and conditions. Mr. Stanton was most always available to show me a home I was interested in looking at, he gave great advise, yet allowed me to make my own decisions. He is very personal, has a great sense of humor, and easy to talk with. I will recommend, and have recommended him to a friends daughter.

Jake was fantastic throughout the entire process. Very hands on and helpful. We sold our home and bought our new home through him and felt very well taken care of and confident every step of the way. His guidance helped us to get a good sale price on our old home and a good deal on our new.

Jake was exceptional. He helped us make informed decisions regarding the selling of our home and was patient with us as we toured many homes until we found the one for us! As a seasoned realtor we learned so much from him regarding the ins and outs of home selling and buying. My husband would say that at the beginning of the process he was our realtor and by the end he felt like family. We are so grateful Jake was by our side during what can be a very stressful process.

Jake was so patient with my husband and I, as first time home buyers! We were really interested in older historic homes, and he gave us so much knowledge and advice about what to look for. He was able to get us into homes on very short notice on more than one occasion. His flexibility and great communication skills ultimately allowed us to offer on a house the day it was listed. We are so happy with the home we bought and it is all thanks to his constant support through the whole process! He was a wonderful help and taught us so much! We couldn't have asked for a better agent!

Jake was the friendliest, most helpful realtor! I couldn't have asked for a better realtor to work with. Since I did not live in the area of my sister's condo I was selling as executor to her estate, he helped out with so many things I wouldn't have expected a realtor to do. He definitely went above and beyond in my book!

Jake was very helpful in the buying process, he was always there to help us along the way if we had question or a house we wanted to look at or even recommending people to help with moving and fixing up our house. We would definitely recommend Jake to anyone looking to buying a house!

I am moving to Iowa, and had just a few days to pick a house. Jacob was very good at coordinating and scheduling all the viewings... 20+ houses in 2 days! Even after the closing, Jake continues to be very helpful in recommending services that we need or giving tips about the city.
