Client Testimonials

I purchased my current home with Jack as my agent. I have worked with other agents from well-known real estate companies in the past and Jack provided comparable services in every regard. He is always punctual and provided honest assessment on the properties we visited. As we made the purchasing offer, Jack was extremely helpful in working out the comparable value for the house and communicated closely with the selling agent to ensure my offer would be strongly considered. The best part is getting back the commission rebate (1% of the purchasing price in my case) the day after close of escrow. Jack has been extremely pleasant to work with and I would strongly recommend him to anyone interested in buying or selling a home in the Bay Area.

Jack was my real estate broker in two recent real estate transactions. I did a 1031 Exchange, and I found that his vast knowledge and 25 years experience, made the sale of my town home in Mill Valley very easy. Jack arranged to have my home staged before the Brokers’ Tour and of course, it showed very well.

My home sold in two weeks, and Jack handled the entire transaction while he was in Boston. In today’s market, time is of the essence. Jack received an offer on my property while he was at the San Francisco Airport, and completed the real estate transaction via fax after he arrived in Boston that evening. Jack was available 100% of the time even while he was on the East Coast.

Jack then assisted me with the purchase of another investment in Belmont. I only had 90 days to identify another property in my 1031 Exchange. Using his web-site www.hildexpro.com, I received numerous e-mails each day of all the new real estate listings in the cities that I selected. I was able to visit different properties even without his assistance during the Sunday Open House Tours in San Carlos, Belmont, and San Mateo.

In my second real estate transaction there were 9 multiple offers, and my offer was accepted. Again, I felt Jack’s vast experience of the real estate market and his professionalism made me feel very much as ease in a very competitive market.

I would certainly use Jack Safra as my broker again and would recommend his real estate services to anyone who wants to purchase a condo, home, apartment building, or do a 1031 Exchange. Most real estate agents do not have the vast experience of handling real estate transactions around the Bay Area. Jack knows the real estate market very well and is a tremendous resource for those looking to purchase real estate.

"Jack Safra was a pleasure to work with. It was the responsibility of my wife and me to generally preview the homes that we were interested in bidding on but Jack showed a lot of patience; my wife and I went through the process several times before we finally got a house that we really wanted!

Given all the information one can gleam from MLSlistings.com, it was nice to get a "rebate" check from Jack after we closed on our house this past August 2005." Robert Fong

Recently, we decided to change addresses. On a lark, we decided to speak to a discount broker to see what “discount” really meant. After an intriguing phone conversation with Jack, we decided to interview him, but not before thoroughly questioning 2 excellent real estate agents in order to compare their knowledge of the real estate market to his. When we interviewed Jack, we were pleasantly surprised. He obviously knew the ins and outs of the peninsula market and showed us his plans to both sell our home and purchase a new one. After viewing multiple listings, Jack knew what type of home we wanted. He also knew the essence of timing due to the competitive nature of the peninsula market. Upon his preview of a recently listed home in Belmont, he immediately called us to see the property. That night, we toured the home and were ready to make an offer. We put the offer together in about an hour and Jack presented it to the sellers that night: we had our new home!

Several things truly stand out about Jack:

1. His customer service is top notch. He was always available to us and patiently listened to our needs during the most stressful situations.

2. He gave us great advice on how to list our home and we received $50,000 over asking.

3. His service did not end at the end of the deal. We still use his contracting referrals and value his advice regarding questions we have about changes we’d like to make in our new home.

4. He truly cares about the relationship, not the transaction and we thought of him more as a partner, not a broker.

5. And, of course, we saved A LOT of money: $22,000 to be exact. Alas, the "discount" part of discount broker!

We highly recommend Jack if you are looking to buy and/or sell your home. We promise you won’t regret it. In fact, feel free to call us if you'd like. We’d be happy to tell you about our experience.

Sincerely,

David and Stephanie Vinski
