As an agent, Isaac is totally professional in his approach and manner. His appearance is on point. He is very knowledgeable in all aspects of real estate. His marketing strategy was flawless and he always kept me informed throughout the selling process. My only regret is that I did not engage Isaac's assistance in the first instance.

Isaac did an absolutely fantastic job marketing and selling our lifestyle property in a reasonably short amount of time. His communication after each Open Home and private viewing was great, and his honest, no bs conversations with us really helped. He is not your typical agent who is going to tell you what you want to hear, he's going to give you the truth and he is going to guide you along the way, all while making sure he gets you top dollar for the sale of your home. He really does know what he is doing. If you want an agent that is going to put a bunch of effort in and is going to give you honest feedback, then Isaac is the agent for you. I would recommend him to everyone, you will not be disappointed.

I met with Isaac prior to Christmas 2022, so we could put a plan together and be ready to hit the market as soon as 2023 kicked off. Well before we met, I had already chosen Isaac, as he stood out to me as one of the most visible agents in my area, and had impressed me with the marketing material I received from time to time. With the added bonus of the Eves team being renowned for having the lions share of the Tauranga market, my expectation was to have the support of an active team, headed by a leading agent, and I was not disappointed. Our campaign kicked off right on track, and before the ad was even up online, I had a request for a viewing, and a second viewing immediately after the ad went live. The activity remained steady throughout our campaign, with a mixture of open home attendees and plenty of private viewings - which I always view as a sign of proactive marketing. More than one offer was presented, then ultimately one that sealed the deal. So only a few weeks after launching, in one of the worst markets we've seen in many years, with house prices declining and days on the market stretching out to months for many, I'm SOLD! Selling a home is so often a stressful time, and although I had one or two 'meltdowns' during the process, Isaac kept his cool and remained focused on getting me a result. I'm so grateful to Isaac and his team and I'm happy to recommend them to anyone wanting to buy or sell their home.

Always super fast to reply. Answered all questions about the property as best as he could giving us all the information he could. Great service would definitely recommend to all. Thanks Again.

We met a lot of Agents during the last 2.5 months when we were looking for a house to buy. Isaac was one of those where you could see that he loves what he is doing. And he was one who didn't push you and he was always in a good and bubbly mood. Was a quick and easy buy with him. He always came back to us quickly. Was a pleasure to meet him and we would recommend him. My teenage son is going to miss his fist bombs.

Isaac was the listing agent of the property we purchased as our first home. From the first open home he was welcoming, informative and answered any questions we had. He was knowledgeable about the area and the house and he was easy to get along with. He went above and beyond and was easily available. We couldn’t recommend him more and would work with him again without question.

I had seen many of his for sale signboards around in the Greerton/Parkvale area. I figured he knew that this area was his jam so I contacted him. Turns out, I was right, which meant he was the right person for this job. It wasn't an easy job to sell my house. Isaac was honest and upfront from the get-go. He came up with a plan A, B and C, just in case. Everything was completely see-through, no hidden fees. Isaac triple checked everything before he went ahead and he made sure to do everything he said he would in a timely manner and no matter what he did, he always shared the results. I enjoyed his sense of humour, which made it easier to deal with the process of selling the house. He explained everything so clearly, so it was easy to make hard and fast decisions, right then and there, as I could clearly see what I needed to do. He had faith in my house and the sale reflected that. Book him. You cannot go wrong.

From the first day he was absolutely on fire - not once did we ever think we'd made the wrong choice, or that there was someone else who could sell our house better than he could. 5 days of viewing lead to multiple offers, which lead to being sold a mere 10 days later. He. Never. Stopped. If you want quality handling, a fresh approach, someone who gets results AND good bants - Isaac is your guy. Thanks so much mate!

I can’t express enough how grateful I am to Isaac for seeing my family and I through the somewhat difficult process of selling our family homestead. Extremely professional from start to finish. Very personable and easy to communicate with. Lovely natured but assertive in all the right ways. Great knowledge of the market and how best to approach the sale. And only so young. Isaac has an awesome future ahead of him.

We had the privilege of having Isaac on our team for both our selling and buying process. From our very first meeting, Isaac exuded bubbliness, confidence and was extremely knowledgeable about the market. His passion to provide exceptional customer service was obvious from the beginning, always going above and beyond and he carried it right through to the end of our transaction. This was an incredibly stressful time, made easy and seamless by this amazing bloke. If you want a down-to-earth, genuine real estate agent who is honest, trustworthy, warm, genuine and a top-knotch communicator then Isaac is the man who delivers all of this plus results. We couldn't have been happier with our outcome and cannot thank Isaac enough in playing such a crucial part in our success. We wish you all the very best in your future endeavours Isaac. You're basically an honourary family member now.

We chose Isaac to be our Agent because he took the time to write to us during early lockdown in 2020, showing initiative and enthusiasm for his work at a time when things were a bit subdued. Later in the year when we met him, we discovered Isaac was very easy to relate to, honest, energetic and knowledgeable about property selling processes and legal requirements. Isaac provided information, listened to us and we planned together how to approach the sale of our property. We had a very successful outcome for the 'earlier than planned' auction of our home, with regular active participation and feedback from Isaac. Our tenant was treated with respect and consideration throughout the sale process too, which was heartening for her. We would happily recommend Isaac Jakobs to you as a hard working and engaging real estate agent who goes the extra mile to get a good result.

After unsuccessfully attempting a private sale , we enlisted Isaac's help. He had contacted us a few times while we were selling and had taken the time to understand our situation. He managed to find that key balance of being keen to help without being overly pushy!
Isaac was a pleasure to deal with throughout the process. He laid out how he would market the property, and gave us clear and sound advice on where / how we should invest to get the best result.
The preparation was quick and Isaac was very helpful in arranging things on the ground. He provided clear communications throughout and was very proactive in following up leads, ultimately leading to a quicker than expected sale at a price that we were extremely happy with.
Overall, the whole process was a pleasant, low stress experience with a knowledgeable, nice guy.
If you are looking for an agent who knows the market and is focused on getting you the best result, you couldn't do better than Isaac Jakobs.

"We first met Isaac when we wished to submit a backup offer on one of his listings. We were unsuccessful as the other party was able to go unconditional, however we were impressed with Isaac's attitude, knowledge and care to both us and his vendors during this process. So much so that we appointed him as the listing agent for our property. Isaac is young and energetic, has market savvy, is not afraid to seek advice from his peers, listens, is empathetic and having sold nine houses, Isaac has simply been the best agent that we have had to deal with. Even better we were presented with not one but three offers and subsequently sold our home."
