Jim is a true professional who made this process simple for us. His guidance was all spot on and he presented our property beautifully. When the buyer added some unexpected twists, Jim's experience really shined as he was able to lead us through to a successful closing at a final price that was higher than we thought possible. We strongly recommend Jim Henkel whether you are selling or buying as he helped my father locate the perfect property 2 years ago when he relocated to the Tampa Bay area.

Working with Jim was a great experience every step of the way. We worked with Jim for several months before we found our property and in that time he became a trusted friend. The purchase process was smooth and Jim demonstrated sound advice, tips and his well established and experienced knowledge all throughout. Jim was able to offer insights, thoughts as well as important connections to his network that made things as smooth as could be. We feel fortunate to have been connected with Jim and will absolutely look to work with him directly if and when the time comes in the future. We cannot recommend him enough, and will do so every chance we get!

Jim was very easy to work with. He is a long time area resident and knows the Tampa Clearwater market very well. He listened to our needs and focused on homes that were an appropriate fit. Friendly, easy going personality made our home search a pleasure. Would definitely recommend Jim as a realtor.

Jim is highly recommended as an agent in the Clearwater/Tampa area. As a buyer, I found he was knowledgeable about the properties (both on and off the market) in the area, was punctual/always on-time and offered solid recommendations/opinions on properties available. Jim was very approachable and personable -- I sincerely enjoyed working with him (never felt pressured). I also sincerely appreciated him being respectful of my time (as I was traveling in from out of town) in focusing my attention to areas and properties of likely interest. As I stated in the opening, having made many real estate transactions over the years, I would highly recommend Jim to those seeking a buyers' agent in the area.

I would recommend Jim to anyone looking to sell a their home. Jim is very transparent during the selling process and provided us with excellent upfront guidance toward getting the house ready for market. Jim made the entire sales process go smoothly and we were able to close on our house in 8 days.

This was my 2nd transaction with Jim. He exhibits professionalism and is personable with his clients. He brings extensive knowledge of the area which is very helpful because we were relocating from out of state. He is able to hone in on locations that will fit the lifestyle we wanted while factoring in commute times due to the extensive travel required for our job. Jim has a great knack for listening and is able to narrow down the house search to fit specific criteria. He is respectful of time constraints and gives his all to cross the finish line. We will definitely use Jim for future real estate transactions.

This summer every house we liked was already in pending until we met Jim. He helped us put in the top offer no matter how many offers there were! I believe it’s because he truly practices fiduciary unlike other agents who are in it just for themselves. Even before closing, he sent us a list of utility numbers to make sure we call. He met with us even during our inspections. He has a list of attorneys, accountants and insurance professionals. It truly was a blessing to have Jim on our side. Now he is helping my children find a home and I plan to send him more clients as well…. Hire a seasoned professional agent like Jim!!!

What a wonderful agent Jim Henkel is! I was recommended him from someone close to me and am so happy I took her recommendation. His knowledge in this crazy market was very much needed. With many not able to secure homes in this market, we were able to get the house of our dreams with his help. He really got to understand our needs/wants and found a house that suited everything we needed and more. Beyond the contract, he was able to help with loan advice, homeowners insurance and was there multiple times when we needed his help. He was always professional and replied to our questions very quickly. I highly recommend him!

Jim helped me and my fiancé with the purchase of our house when moving to St. Petersburg, as well as its sale when we finished residency and were moving to another state. He took great care and time to understand our needs, expectations, and our budget. We were able to find the house that met all those within a day. When it came to our selling our house, Jim got us an early head start and provided us with realistic goals and deadlines, which relieved a LOT of the stress of selling a home. Throughout the process, Jim was not only our realtor but also our trusted friend and advocate in the real estate business. My fiancé and I couldn't be happier with our purchase and sale experiences. We recommend Jim to anyone who is looking for an agent who will have their best interest in mind and work tirelessly to realize their goals!

Jim is very knowledgeable, strategic and had our best interest in mind throughout the entire process. When it was time to make decisions Jim provides a complete analysis of the good, bad, and ugly and armed us with the right level of information to make a decision. I plan to work with Jim in the future as we look to sell and purchase more property.

This is the second time I work with Jim. First, he helped me buy my house and now he helped me sell it. I tried to sell it a year ago and he advised me very well not to do it. I sat on it and when the market was right, he said, yeah now is the time! He put my interest and my benefit above his and helped me through the process of selling. He has helped a few of my friends and we are all very happy with his expert advise. 300% will recommend him

Jim does fantastic work, he is thorough, knowledgeable, resourceful and two-steps ahead of the process. His foresight about upcoming inspections, appraisals, insurance needs and the like, was really helpful, we could not have pulled off buying in this market without Jim, he was our eyes and ears when we couldn't be onsite. Thank you Jim - your professionalism is appreciated and applauded.
