We had the pleasure of dealing with Jay and his team in the purchase of our new home and in selling our current one. Everyone was such a pleasure to deal with, and they were all quick to respond to any questions we had and were very knowledgeable. They gave us great advice throughout the entire process and sold our house in under 6 days! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone whos either looking to buy or sell.

Had an excellent experience working with Jay and his team with buying and selling our home. The whole team is super sharp and very knowledgeable. Jay always had our best interest at heart and gave us honest advice throughout the whole process. He knows what he's talking about and always seemed to be one step ahead. They sold our house quickly and at the price we had hoped for. Thanks Jay, Nancy, Alexa and the whole team for selling our house and helping us find our dream home.

Jay and his team were extremely efficient, experienced and knowledgeable when carrying their job.
Jay and his team paid attention to every detail of the sale and also purchase/finding of a new home. When it comes to selling his team works diligently in the home staging, inspection and the scheduling of the visits
(even more so during a difficult time such as the pandemic!) They are client centered and the communication was regular. Both purchase and sale of my home was done smoothly and fast. I fully trust him and recommend him for any real estate related goal ( sale and/or purchase). Thanks

We worked with Nancy Deakin in the spring of 2019 to sell our home, and we couldn't have been more pleased! We received multiple offers very quickly after the house went on the market, thanks in large part to Nancys incredible work. Nancy brought in a fabulous photographer to showcase our home online, which created much more foot traffic and brought in serious buyers. She also brought in a designer to help stage our home, which helped make it more appealing to a larger group of potential buyers. The Deakin Team (including her son Jay) is top notch and can't be beat! Although we received multiple

My wife and I worked with Deakin Realty to buy and sell our family home. Jays service throughout the process always went beyond our expectations as he ensured that he captured what we both wanted, advising us every step of the way. What was incredibly appreciated was how reactive he was to any hiccups that occurred. He advised us patience when it was needed, as well as when it was time to be proactive. We strongly recommend Deakin realty to be your Sheppard throughout this emotional transaction! Thanks guys for giving us our forever home!
