Having moved four times in the last ten years, I thought I was qualified to define a good real estate agent. That was until a referral put me in touch with Jerrod Strandemo. That is when I learned the difference between good and great. I was told that Jerrod would “work hard for me.” That was an understatement. Not only did Jerrod work hard, he often worked with me on short notice at all hours and was always pleasant, reliable and fun to be with. Jerrod did more than just show me homes for sale. He drove me around the areas, discussed the demographics and provided valuable data that is so critical to a buyer moving in from another state. Professional, courteous, fun. reliable, energetic and committed to my satisfaction are all traits of Jerrod’s that come to mind when I reflect on my buying experience. If I do have to relocate again, my hope is that Jerrod will be licensed in the state I move to. ~Louis
Jerrod is a consummate professional, and at the same time, has a positive/fun attitude that makes the entire process much easier, and even enjoyable. He successfully steered us through a number of unexpected challenges in our home sale in a dynamic market. Without his expertise, I'm not sure the house would have sold in time, and at a price that was above what we were expecting, yet reasonable for the buyers as well. ~Guy
I met Jerrod Strandemo November 2004. I had a condo that I had been trying unsuccessfully to sell on my own. Jerrod convinced me that he could not only get me what I was wanting if I were to sell it on my own, but he could also add his commissions on top of that. Although I was skeptical, I decided to list my condo with him. In three weeks I had 4 offers and sold it for more than list price! I have since listed and sold a duplex and a house with him, both of those transactions netted me far more than I could have ever hoped to get on my own. He has also assisted me in finding and purchasing two other houses and an apartment complex. I have referred my Mom, my Boss, and my best friend to him. He is the only agent I have ever used more than once. Being an investor I have used a lot of agents over the years. His skills as a negotiator and mediator are far superior to any I have used in the past. ~Tracy
The first transaction Jerrod handled for me was 18 months ago. I needed a house to move into within 10 days, and he made it happen. Since then I have used Jerrod for numerous real estate transactions. He has sold several of my investment properties, and has negotiated for the purchase of others. He is hard working, dependable, honest and truly professional. I am proud to say he is “My Realtor For Life!” ~Leslie
When I decided to sell my home a good friend kept telling me I HAD to meet with Jerrod. I had already met with a Realtor and was planning to list with her. After meeting with Jerrod I was extremely impressed! There is no question he offers much more than other Realtors. I immediately decided to list with Jerrod, and am I glad! Jerrod sold my home in only days and for full price! Jerrod was professional and honest. I am looking forward to using Jerrod for my next real estate transaction. ~Dan
Jerrod was so awesome to work with! As a first-time home buyer, I had a lot to learn and was very nervous to start the process. But Jerrod made it a great (and fun!) experience, walking me through the process, always taking his time to explain things to me. I appreciated his honesty (even when it was something I didn't want to hear), and he seemed to really care about getting me into the perfect home. And he did--we couldn't be happier! We'll definitely be keeping him around for all our real estate needs! ~Michele
I really can't speak highly enough about Jerrod and the experience my wife and I had working with him on buying our first home. I know everyone has a realtor that they can't recommend highly enough, it's a common thing we all hear people say, but I think what separates Jerrod from the throng of competing realtors is his honesty and understanding of people. Jerrod has a keen sense of fit for the people he represents and he understands that helping people find a house isn't a one size fits all approach. He'll shoot straight with you and isn't going to try and sell you on a house you aren't interested in, he'll simply point out the pros and cons as he sees them and let you make your own decisions. Additionally he's so experienced in this market he knows all of the subtle nuances of how to best position yourself to win in a competitive bid situation. In our case he helped us find a home in the area we wanted (a highly competitive area) and managed to get the home for less than list price, it was fantastic work. Whether you're buying or selling, if it's your first home or your 10th, give Jerrod a call and have a conversation with him, you wont regret giving him a chance. ~Justin
