Jared is the nicest person and was the most professional and competent agent since our first meeting.

Jared always keep us informed about the next step. He was very personable and knowledgeable. He treated us like a friend or family member.

It has been great working with Jared Van Cleave over the years. His knowledge and expertise have been very helpful when buying and selling our home.

Jared was wonderful to work with. He made the process go smoothly and made us feel at ease with each step. When timelines changed he clearly communicated what was happening and how the sale will proceed

Through nice comments from family about Jared's knowledge and expertise, and not being at all familiar with Ames real estate since we live out of state, it seemed the logical choice to contact Jared and we are happy we did. Because our primary residence is out of state, Jared's communication with us was crucial. He kept us abreast of everything going on here in Ames and was available for questions at all times. As previously stated, Jared's knowledge of the area, timely and clear communications (especially because we live out of state) and friendly demeanor all contributed to why we enjoyed working with Jared. Painless! That one little word speaks volumes.

Jared made us feel comfortable during the whole home buying process. He was very knowledgeable on both the benefits and drawbacks at each home we looked at. The updates on new properties and trying to gauge what we were looking for were very much appreciated it. I would not hesitate to recommend Jared to anyone who asks for a real estate agent recommendation in the Ames area. If we ever look for another home in the area, we would first go to Jared.
