Highly recommend Jake! His dedication and expertise made our home-buying experience exceptional.

Our family cannot express enough gratitude toward Jake Raines, a simple "thank you" will never suffice. From our first meeting, Jake was friendly, professional, personable, knowledgeable, patient, and respectful. He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and our price range, reassuring us that the perfect property for our family would come along. Jake arrived at each showing fully prepared with all the necessary information to guide us through every step. He is well-informed about the changing market and provides factual insights, avoiding misleading information or false hope from both the buyer's and seller's perspectives. Whenever a challenge arose with a potential home, Jake was proactive in offering clear advice, presenting options for how to proceed, and providing a large database of resources or subcontractors to address any issues. Throughout the entire process, he consistently prioritized our best interests, and we cannot imagine having gone through this experience with anyone else as our realtor. We wholeheartedly recommend Jake to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. His dedication, expertise, and genuine care for his clients make him an exceptional realtor. Thank you, Jake, for helping us find our perfect home!

Cindy and Jake are real professionals. This is the third property they have sold for us and we could not be more pleased with them. They kept us well informed and helped us negotiate a great price on our home in Lake Toxaway!

There is no one better than Jake! Persistent, Kind, Professional & Effective

Our home was on the market for over 6 months when I asked Jake to be our realtor (he came as a strong recommendation from a friend). Man, did we hit the jackpot! We had a very unique home in a very unique community and he put in the work to get it out there to buyers. I’ve never known anyone as hard working and effective as Jake. He is a STELLAR communicator, and was always honest but positive. We never had to wonder what was going on which was a very different experience with the previous two realtors. We hit roadblock after roadblock with a potential buyer but Jake never stopped working to get us to the finish line. His network is vast and his relationships are strong… no one else could have (or would have) done what he did to close the deal. We are beyond grateful to have found him and if you want your house sold or looking to buy, do not go with anyone else. Wish I could give a thousand stars to Jake - he’s that good.

We had an experience trying to sell our home that no one should ever have. Jake stood by us all the way he provided guidance and mediated all the way to closing date. He was always available at anytime. Our home was under contract in less than a week. If you are looking to sell or buy please contact Jake. Trust me he will not disappoint you.

Jake makes things happen when others can't.  The best I've ever worked with.

Jake makes things happen when others can't. The best I've ever worked with.

Jake is the best. I've moved too many times in the past 12 years and have used a different realtor each time because I never felt like they fought hard enough or negotiated well enough to deserve the large amount of money they made. That is until I found Jake Raines. He will be my realtor from now on. I had a very difficult time selling my latest house due to various reasons and my former realtor gave up after a deal feel through. Jake stepped in and worked tirelessly to find just the right buyer, took advantage of his numerous connections and used the best strategy to get it done. He is an awesome negotiator and the hardest working realtor I've ever worked with. I was selling a double wide and trying to buy a nice house but by no means a mansion, so he wasn't set to make a killing off of helping me. But he worked like it was a million dollar deal regardless. He got me more money for my house than I would've previously gotten in the deal that previously fell through, and negotiated a great deal on the house the he helped me buy. He scheduled everything and lined everything up perfectly for us to be able to close on my old house and my new house simultaneously so we were able to move straight from one into the other. All of the signings and closing stuff were done on the same day at the same place. It couldn't have been more seamless. Of course we ran into some hiccups along the way. I was told by Jake that my situation was one of the hardest he had ever had to deal with. I never felt like it wasn't being taken care of, or nervous that it wasn't going to work out because his communication was constant and reassuring. He fought incredibly hard for me and treated me like a millionaire and I know he would for anyone else as well. Give Jake Raines a call. You will not be disappointed.

Best experience with Jake!

Jake listed my home and had it under contract in a week! He has a way of communicating that brings no pressure, he’s direct, honest and always willing to go above and beyond to make it a simple process! Jakes willingness to go the extra mile is why he will soon be listing my second home!

Jake gets it done!

After we bought our house, I was very anxious about not having sold our house. Jake listened and heard my concerns, then the magic happened. We closed before we had to pay two mortgages. He did amazing work and made sure the deal was fair and honorable on all sides.

Highly recommend!

Jake helped us over two years ago when we were first time homebuyers. We found the perfect home to remodel and build a family in. Since then, he worked hard to help us find the perfect buyer for the that home and purchase another property with even more potential. There’s nobody else who will work as hard as Jake when it comes to helping you buy or sell your home. We’re thankful for a realtor who is trustworthy and won’t let you walk into a deal that’s not going to be in your best interest. He is truly one of a kind and we will continue to work with him in the future!
