Outstanding agent! He was great to work with... He really strived to understand my requirements and had excellent knowledge of the process. I highly recommend Jim and would use him again!
Highly recommend Jim Acklin! He stood out helping us buy the home at a great price and when it came to selling it, he immediately stood out again above the competition with his plan for sale. Jim helped coordinate getting the home ready for sale and is an excellent example of the value an experienced realtor can add to the sale of a property. Overall, Jim Acklin is why I'll always recommend someone get the right realtor involved with the sale of your home. People that try "For sale by owner" don't know what they're missing. Like anything important in life that involves money, hire the right professional. Jim is that guy. His knowledge, helpfulness, planning, and ability to politely point out areas of the home to improve prior to sale, helped tremendously in providing a smooth sale. Lastly, his ability to negotiate, and market the property, lead to an outstanding outcome of multiple offers, and a price we thought unachievable. Thank you to all involved, but mostly to Jim for his tireless efforts to ensure this property was ready for sale, and once in contract, owned the process start to finish.
I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the superb level of service provided by Jim Acklin. He simply served me with the spirit of excellence! He was diligent with follow through as he kept me informed every step of the way. Jim is very attentive and has the ability to connect with people vey easily, which was very important to me! It was truly refreshing to witness / benefit from such professionalism, vast knowledge of the industry and excellent service from the time I contacted him until we closed and beyond. The sensitivity Jim exhibits to his customers’ needs while working diligently to exceed their expectations reflects credit up on him and the Coldwell Banker Danforth brand. It was absolutely the best experience I have ever had with a real estate agent!
We met Jim long before we started our home search. We liked him instantly. He had worked with a close relative who always spoke highly of him. So he was a natural go-to guy when we anxiously decided to jump into the volatile Northwest housing market. And we got so much more than we bargained for. We would have asked him to be our broker, even without the personal recommendation, because he left such a good impression on us outside of a business context. And then we saw him in action: Great guy. Terrific worth ethic. Delivered way above and beyond what we thought was possible. We couldn't be happier with "our guy," and we can't wait to recommend him to others. Homebuyers ask a lot of dumb questions. But Jim seems to have an infinite supply of patience and wisdom, along with impeccable knowledge of the local and regional housing markets. (And great insight on the national scene, too!) Buying a home anywhere in the Northwest is a huge challenge right now, and we've heard many horror stories about buyers striking out multiple times due to the market's unimaginable, cut-throat competitiveness. But we never felt like we were in the dark about anything that had to do with house hunting, financing, escrow, making an offer, or any of the million little steps it takes to close on a home. Jim shed light on every aspect of this complicated and unfamiliar process, calmed our many fears, and walked us to the finish line with confidence and final-boss-level competence. Jim is always quick to reply to any text, email, voicemail, SOS flare, etc. He has thorough knowledge of the housing market, and he gives great answers to our many questions. We like him as both an agent and a person. He's the kind of guy you could enjoy playing poker with one day and then will expertly help you buy or sell a house the next. We really enjoyed every step of this complicated process because of Jim's excellent stewardship. This process couldn't have gone any better for us, and that is entirely because of Jim's patience, knowledge, expertise, and commitment.
Personal knowledge of Jim,s work ethics & several friends ho had used Jim to purchase a home gave me full confidence I would get the best deal possible. What a GREAT team !!! They don't miss a thing. What more can I say .... Fantastic service. From start to finish, the entire team ws great !
we give him another great big thank you
Extremely professional and personal real estate agent that takes the time to get to know the customer's wants and needs, and how potential communities fit those wants and needs.
