We pay big bucks to buy a home. I’m not screwing around picking just any real estate agent recommended by my family and friends just because they know that person. I’ve bought a home three times in my life and had my share of agents who were either passable or pretty bad. I know what great is and that’s Jas. She’s been in real estate for 11 years and has so much experience in both real estate selling and loans. Jas Ongsiako is the best and most efficient agent I’ve ever worked with. I felt taken care of from the start to the end of our transaction. She never rushed me to just pick a home. She also provided tips along the way which helped me make a smart decision. Once I had decided on my home, I was impressed by her efficiency. There was no time wasted. She courteously led the negotiation with the seller’s agent and got me what I wanted in this crazy market where it’s normal to lose a bid 10 to 15 times before finding a home. We only bid a couple times and sailed through the rest of the transaction. It was fun to watch. I don’t call that lucky. She was pretty damn good! I’ve purchased a house three times in my life and I know how easily things can go wrong. I always tell my friends to work with an agent who is not just highly experienced but also driven– gets the job done, thorough and very positive. You need someone really special to work with you when you’re buying a home these days. Jasmin Ongsiako is in a class of her own. I’m proud to have been her client and I wouldn’t hesitate hiring her again.
