Meet Jacob

Serving Manhattan & Brooklyn

Jacob is a successful and experienced NYC real estate advisor. Over the past decade, he’s helped more than 90 buyers and sellers achieve their goals, totaling over $80M in sales volume, and has closed 100+ rental transactions.

For sellers, Jacob’s marketing strategy is best-in-class. From narrated video tours and custom listing websites to broad social media campaigns and tapping into his network of buyer-agent peers, he consistently delivers top-dollar results with minimal stress—often outperforming similar listings. For buyers, his approach is thorough yet relaxed, grounded in deep market knowledge, skilled negotiation, and access to upcoming and off-market properties.

Jacob splits his time between Ft Greene, Brooklyn and Miami Beach with his wife Sarah and their two daughters: Blake, a sharp and spirited three-year-old, and Robin, an eight-month-old just learning to stand. In his spare time, he enjoys scavenging toys at Underhill Park with Blake, sipping a beer at Beer Street with other baby-wearing dads, going to the theatre, watching college football, and playing so-so chess.

Jacob is always available at 917.708.8088 to assist with any real estate need or question.

jacobwoodre Alex Pretti died a hero. He saw a woman being assaulted by multiple men, knowing full well that these men were armed, emotionally unstable, and supported by immunity from the most powerful entity on earth, the US government, and stepped in to help. He was legally filming Secret State Police assaulting an innocent civilian, and legally carrying a firearm. The Gestapo assaulted him, beat him, disarmed him, and then executed him in the street, with the public watching. ICE and DHS serve no legitimate purpose. Their sole purpose is to act as an extra-judicial, armed force exclusively on the behalf of Trump, an anti-democratic, fascist authoritarian who is using their presence in battleground states to extort those state governments to turn over their voter rolls, in an attempt to rig the '26 and '28 elections. The US government is at war with its own citizens. The people of Minnesota are setting an admirable example of how to properly resist. My hope for the rest of us, myself included, is that we can follow their example when our turn comes... and it will. Long live Silverio Villegas González, Renée Good, Alex Pretti, and the 36 people who've died in ICE or DHS custody since Jan 2025.

He was interfering with ice agents work, you liberals always want to say that they were legally observing and don't forget he was armed, ice is not secret police Mr New York realtor I hoped you showed the same energy when Obama was putting kids in cages
The same folks who spent years saying “if he only didn’t have a gun this wouldn’t have happened” are now focused on due process

jacobwoodre @bosssilverio ran the @themiamimarathon half-marathon this morning... in the sweltering heat! She trained through the snow in Brooklyn too. Hardcore. As always, I'm immensely proud of her and in awe of her bad-assery.

jacobwoodre I'm grateful to be featured as a contributor in @curbed discussing how thoughtful staging can directly impact buyer perception and sale outcomes. In competitive markets, presentation isn’t cosmetic — it’s strategic.
