Jake knows the whole Cook County community very well, having lived there all of his life. He deeply cares about needs of the people he serves as well as anyone he meets. He is one of the most honest men I know, and will treat you as a friend as well as a customer.

Five star experience. I recommend Jake. In a frantic hot market Jake got it done.

This property was raw land which can be difficult to sell. Jake sold it quickly and at a high price. He was also very enjoyable to work with. The only thing that we were unhappy with was the fact that we did not see a for sale sign posted on the property when we went out. It did not end up being an issue as it sold shortly after.

We worked with Jake on 2 occasions in the past couple of years. Jake found us exactly what we were looking for in a very difficult market and helped us sale a property later. He was able to get us multiple offers and get exactly what we wanted for our home. He has great local knowledge of the North Shore and is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. We highly recommend him, he will treat you right and work hard to represent you and your interests. There’s no one else on the North Shore that I would use, only Jake.

Jake is great to work with. Attentive, knowledgeable and experienced. He is mindful of all the variables involved in marketing and sales of property. I was extremely happy with his work and will use him again with our other properties.

Jacob was great. We set a showing up and he arrived right on time. A few months after the purchase of our property we had another property that we wanted to take a look at. He picked me up and spent plenty his time and knowledge. I would refer him to anyone happily.

Jake is excellent on sourcing the details. When we needed info for the bank, Jake responded immediately. And cleared up details we weren’t aware of to keep the process moving. This person understands the importance of diligence, and accuracy in the details. And keeps communication flowing to get it right the first time. Great person to work with. I hope Jake and family stay in the Grand Marais community. As neighbors and serving anyone in need of finding a home. Kindest Regards, Charles & Sylvia

We met Jake while looking for property in the Grand Marias area. He not only knows the best areas but also everybody in those areas. We have worked with him on a few different properties and are proud to not only have him as our agent, but also as our friend.

Jake was a great guy to work with on the sale of our cabin. From the listing process right through to the signing of all documents, he guided us seamlessly. We would highly recommend Jake to anyone looking to sell or buy a home.

When you work with Jake, you will immediately realize that he has your best interest in mind. He is a great communicator: quick to respond and professional even in texting. He also has a wealth of knowledge about Lake Superior's North Shore. He gives outstanding recommendations based on the current market, but he always let me make the final decisions. I listed my house with him and it sold in three or four days.
