“We have worked with Jay on the purchase of two homes. Our primary home and a vacation home. I cannot even begin to say enough wonderful things about our experience with Jay. He is incredibly knowledgable, he listened to what we were looking for and most importantly, did not try to push us into a home that was out of our price range. He is responsive; always got back to us very quickly; and was always incredibly professional with a positive attitude. Jay is definitely our go-to guy for real estate; and I will recommend him to anyone I know who is looking to either buy or sell a home.”

“We have bought and/or sold 5 houses with Jay over the last 12 years ranging in price from $300k to $1.3M. He is super responsive to your needs, gives realistic advice, makes the closing process smooth and has good knowledge of a wide range of house values and neighborhoods, particularly on the East Side. And, when you are done buying your house, Jay doesn't just dissappear like many brokers. He is always a phone or text away for advice on home improvement investments, local ordinances and recommendations on contractors and services. We have put our trust in Jay and he has never let us down and will continue in the future.”

“Jay was a wonderful agent to work with. My husband and I hired him to help us find a new home on Mercer Island. Although we have lived on the island for over a decade, it was extremely helpful to have a professional perspective on the area's housing market. Jay was extremely efficient in narrowing down our focus areas based on our needs and preference. He even talked us out of several houses that we considered putting in offers, by providing us with information, data and his unbiased opinion on why those houses were not necessarily the perfect new home for us. Thankfully we listened to Jay and as a result, exercised restraint and patience until a perfect home came on the market. Having seen the wide gamut of offerings, when the right home came along we were able to quickly act and work with Jay to secure the home. Jay is particularly tech savvy and he was very quick to respond to all of our inquiries. Being prolific email/text-ers both my husband and I were very impressed and pleased with Jay's responsiveness. Even in instances where he was not able to provide an immediate answer, he would take the time to acknowledge that he had received our request and would get back to us. If we were ever in the market for another home, we would absolutely call upon Jay again with no hesitation.”

“My wife and I are both physicians who just moved to Seattle. We were using Zillow to look at houses and began reading reviews for real estate agents... and that's how we found Jay! Jay is an outstanding real estate agent who is easy to talk to, communicates well, and is always reachable and responds promptly. He's lived his whole life in Seattle so he knows everything there is to know about this city. Jay took us to see almost 100 houses. He doesn't try to convince you to buy every house you see. He wants to help find the perfect house for you. He would often point out both positive and negative things about houses that we hadn't noticed or considered. We had a delay in closing on our house, and Jay was so understanding and helpful the whole time. Jay really provides a personal service and develops a relationship with his clients that can be life-long. There is a very good reason that Jay Agoado is so highly rated and well-reviewed on Zillow... because he's the best!!”
