Experienced Realtor with amazing attention to detail

Jim Gestautas not only found us the perfect home, but he also walked us through the process step-by-step. He was incredibly generous with his time and was always available for questions or virtual showings. Jim is very knowledgeable about the home buying experience. He was able to provide us with insight that allowed us to put together a winning offer and close in a very short period of time. Although we met him as a realtor, we now consider him a friend.

Extremely͏ knowledgeable, Honest & Professional, and Excellent Communicator

Extremely͏ knowledgeable, Honest & Professional, Excellent Communicator, Timely responses Jim had a very knowledgeable understanding of the market. He was most concerned about what we were concerned about; timely sale of my mother’s home, done “thoughtfully”, at the best price. He suggested simple easy changes to enhance overall “show well” appearance, inside and out. He was an excellent communicator, very timely and always available by txt, email or phone. He was very familiar with HOA rules/guidelines and provided great help with questions/concerns there. He offered names of local contractor & carpet cleaner, which we were able to secure in very timely order. Jim asked lots if questions to “get ahead” of questions/concerns agents buyers might have and was always very prepared. He was extremely patient and helpful with questions I had regarding the different contracts I needed to sign. He helped to build my confidence about what it was I was signing, without having to get a lawyer to review. Jim’s advertising of our home with Open Houses, right after it was listed, was a huge blessing. Plus, his emails, internet advertising and handouts made our home visible to a larger population. With great excitement, I share that with Jim’s dedication to help “meet our quick sale at best price,” that’s exactly what happened. Our home sold over and above our expectation. And…we were able to close escrow 3 wks after going on market!!! Amazing! We thank God for His favor over all of this. Jim provided us a 5 star service. We are so grateful Jim was our agent. But even more, we consider him a new friend. Thank you, Jim, for making the sale of mom’s home such a great experience. We are forever grateful.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Jim͏ was amazing throughout our whole home buying experience, this was our first home purchase and we probably had A LOT of questions but Jim went above and beyond to make sure we understood every step of the way and was there for us with any questions we had at any time, best communication I've had from any realtor I spoke with around the area! Jim made the whole process as easy as he could for us and our family. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND him for either buying or seller your home, you won't be let down!

Best realtor I've ever worked with!

Best realtor I've ever worked with!

Jim went far above and beyond to help my mother sell her property in Cannon Beach in what was an extremely complex situation. We weren't able to be there in person, and Jim helped us do everything remotely — from preparing the property to finding the right buyers to guiding us through the transaction and even helping back up some important belongings and shipping them to us. Really, I couldn't offer a more effusive endorsement. You'd be very lucky to be able to work with Jim.

Selling my place was extremely complicated on many levels, from the house itself , to my health and complications in moving to a whole list of other concerns. These kept me from selling. Jim is one of these truly beyond the beyond of any realtor I've ever used or encountered. He is not only very honest, energetic and hard working- but also fantastic with handling a trillion big and small aspects I would have no idea how to handle. I was amazed time and again and only hope for others out there-- : they are able to have Jim as their realtor or somehow find someone as Stellar, hardworking, knowledgeable and amazing. Can't recommend him enough.

Jim represented me in selling a commercial piece of property. This sale was wrought with issues. Jim dealt with many of these with total professionalism. He applied common sense and guidance to bring this sale to completion. I cant say enough regarding his knowledge, thoroughness, and kindness he showed me throughout this sale. I,m very grateful to have Jim representing me. A big thank you, Jim.

Above and beyond

Jim was involved from the being till the end making sure I knew what paperwork needed to be done and when it needed to be turned in. He walked me through the house virtually and went out of his way to make sure I was satisfied with everything. He worked well with the sellers agent and made sure that my wants and needs were met. His genuine kindness was apparent and I felt like I had made a new friend come closing time. I will buy/sell from him again.

Easiest Purchase Ever! Jim is highly recommended.

Easiest Purchase Ever! I have sold and purchased many homes over the years....this experience of buying a home with the help of Jim Gestautas was by far the easiest and most pleasant. Jim is sincerely interested in the success and satisfaction of his clients. He also knows the north coast area of Oregon well, so is a valuable source of information. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a good agent.
