Kind Words from Clients
"My wife and I met Jacob in a slightly unusual way - he was the seller's agent on the other side of the table from us at the first apartment we tried to buy. We were immediately impressed by his breadth of knowledge, both about the specific unit we were looking at, the market… overall and the purchasing process. We did not end up purchasing that unit because Jacob managed to get a higher price than we were willing to pay from another buyer, but we were completely swept off our feet by his ability to remain both professional and amicable to us while at the same time representing his own clients interests to the fullest and promised ourselves that if we had an opportunity, he was exactly the person we wanted in our corner in the future. He was leagues above the other agents we had worked with so far.
He became our agent in our attempt to continue our search and we grew to rely on his network of fellow professionals across bankers, lawyers, inspectors, movers, contractors, cleaners, painters and every other nook and cranny of the industry that we needed. We very quickly found our new favorite property and Jacob guided us through the process of negotiation, board package prep, co-op approval and the closing. I cannot recommend him enough and we are incredibly happy with our new home.”"
"Jacob is an experienced and well informed real estate broker who exhibits high acumen and professionalism for his industry. His understanding of market trends and knowing how to present properties for the market make him an indubitable asset to any seller. A very capable a… nd efficient agent, who made the process of selling my apartment an easy and pleasurable experience."
"Jacob is excellent and I recommend him highly. He understood what I was looking for in a home and was flexible in his approach to showing a variety of places. He was smart about how to prepare the offer and provided valuable counsel through the board process and closing. H… e is patient, responsive and always willing to go the extra length. He introduced me to a number of professionals in his network of resources and I am so pleased to have met my closing attorney and architect through him. He thinks about what is best for his customer and that is a great asset! Wishing you a lot of success Jacob!"
"Jacob was an outstanding agent in our recent search for a place in lower Manhattan. His knowledge of the areas we were interested in and his diligence in following up with us even though we were not committed to a timetable resulted in us finding the perfect place at a grea… t price. With his help, and with his team of professional contacts, we actually got the deal done well before we expected to, and it was hassle-free. His professional but friendly demeanor also made him easy and enjoyable to work with. He treated us like we were valued clients even though we were not searching for a pricey property. He has even followed up with us since the closing to see how the new place is working out. We would definitely use him again and freely recommend him to others."
"This is my second time purchasing an apt with Jacob in Manhattan and he has consistently been a great source of information and a joy to work with throughout the years. Our purchase would not have been possible without his help throughout every aspect of the process from our… initial search to our offering to our financing to our closing. I recommend him without hesitation."
"My wife and I worked with Jacob in selling our Upper West Side apartment, and he was terrific. He started with an ambitious plan, fully delivered on what he said he would do (including providing contractors who could prep the apartment), and our apartment sold at a top price… and quickly. We appreciated his sophistication, and this was a very positive experience for us. We highly recommend Jacob!"
"I worked with Jacob for quite a few months on my HDFC coop search in Manhattan. Jacob was fantastic to work with - highly knowledgable, responsive, and really understood what I was looking for. I visited a few units that helped me narrow down my search, and once I was ready … to submit an offer he was incredibly helpful and walked me through every step of the way. HDFC purchases can be more complicated than a condo, but the board application and closing went off without a hitch. I was also able to close very quickly (thanks also to the attorney recommended). I'm really happy with my new apartment and extremely grateful to Jacob for all his help throughout the process, I recommend him highly!"
"As a first time buyer from out of state, purchasing a home in NYC felt extremely challenging. Luckily, I was able to connect with Jacob Wood, who was able to make the process a lot less intimidating. With his vast knowledge of the market and network of resources, I was able … to quickly get up to speed and hit the ground running on my Manhattan condo search. Jacob Wood ensured we considered all options that fit the criteria I was looking for and made sure we ended up with a home I would be happy living in. He showed high levels of professionalism and patience, which are characteristics that made it a pleasure to work with him. Throughout the process, Jacob was also very responsive and accommodating, which helped make me feel confident and much more comfortable with this large purchase. When we found a number of options we liked, Jacob was able to negotiate multiple offers and we ended up with the Midtown studio we wanted at a great price despite the competitive market. His help did not stop there as he quickly connected us with multiple resources (attorneys/bankers/etc.) to assist with closing. Additionally, he made the building application submission as efficient as possible and provided great guidance during the process. Due to this, we were able to close quickly as hoped, despite a few holidays between going into contract and closing, which I was really happy about. Given my experience from the beginning of my search through closing, I highly recommend Jacob Wood for everyone in their New York City real estate search."
"Jacob’s a rock star — he got me a better price than I’d ever expected and has killer contacts, with both a reasonably priced and incredible lawyer and a mortgage broker wizard. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough."
