Our experience with Jared started with a recommendation from a friend on Facebook. My husband and I were dreaming of owning a home, but we had no idea if we were ready or what to do first. We had started the process of improving our credit scores but hadn't seen a huge increase yet. When we first met with Jared, we told him our situation and he was very encouraging about the steps we had made.
Even though we weren't officially ready, he took us to see some houses to get us excited and get an idea of what we liked. He then backed off a little and let us continue working to improve our credit score, all the while staying in touch and encouraging us on our journey. He also stayed in touch with our loan officer and the minute we were ready, he reached out excitedly and took us to a bunch of houses that were exactly our style!
Every time we looked at a house, you could tell that his wheels were turning as he paid attention to the things we did and didn't like as well as thought about all the details on his end. At one point in our search, we got very frustrated with the market and the process and he very calmly talked us through it... which was a huge blessing because we were ready to throw in the towel, but with his leadership, we found our perfect house just two days later!
On our final walk through, my husband and I were dancing around the house like it was Christmas morning and he just watched us with joy all over his face and said, "This is my favorite part!"
Jared is a wonderful person who took the time to get to know our family. He took our hands and led us through a process we knew NOTHING about in a way that made us feel safe. Because of his attention to detail, patience, and knowledge of all the factors that go into buying a house; we were able to buy and move into our first house just in time for Christmas! If you're reading this, I highly recommend you reach out to Jared... you won't be disappointed!

Jared was personable and professional and showed us homes in our price range that were very applicable to our family's needs. He sold our house in under a day and we were able to purchase a new house within a week.

Jared is amazing. You can tell he truly cares about people and is out for your best interest. He was very helpful and researched my surrounding area for market values and educated me on how the whole process works. He was very patient and took the time to explain things in full detail. 2nd to none.

"We met Jared at an open house he was hosting. We got to talking and he seemed genuinely interested in helping us find a home, much more so than anyone else we had talked to. He was super flexible and helped us out a lot with scheduling showings and getting things done. Jared was there every step of the way by text or phone. He made things as easy as possible and really wanted to see things go well. We are very happy we chose to work with him and we will use him again when needed and absolutely refer him to others. "

Jared was great, I’d feel extremely comfortable referring friends and family to Jared knowing they’d be in good, capable hands. Jared was great to work with. We are first time homebuyers so not able to compare to other experiences. We’d be happy and excited to work with Jared again.

Over the course of two years, Jared has been our realtor. Through countless showings, running around, hectic schedules, canceled appointments, and everything else in between... Jared has been much more than just a realtor; he has turned into a friend.
Finding a house is extremely hard in this economy. Jared went above and beyond in helping us find our first home. I couldn’t imagine the countless hours and effort he put into helping us. It’s refreshing to find someone with a true passion for their career. You can surely tell he genuinely cares about you and is wanting you to find a home you’ll truly love.
I couldn’t recommend Jared West enough. He comes with amazing passion, expertise, and personality. He’ll search with you not only with determination, but with effort that isn’t seen in the workforce today. He truly is a man of great value in today’s world. If only every other realtor could be like Jared, this world would be full of happy homeowners.

Jared was a pleasure to work with. Anytime I had an question about a property he would get back to me immediately. He made looking for a house painless. It was a great experience working with Jared and I highly recommend him. The next time I'm in the market to buy he will be my first call. Thank Jared for working so hard on my behalf.

Jared is really easy to work with. He is friendly and a very hard worker. He met us for several months the day houses went on the market. He always made time for us to look. He made buying a house easy and smooth. He was very helpful in both buying and selling our homes.

This guy sold my home and found me a new home in record speed. I’m so glad to have found a realtor that actually answered my phone calls. It’s a nerve racking time when your moving and it really helps when you can find someone to answer your call and questions. If he didn’t answer I knew he would be calling me back within a few minutes. The guy busted his butt to make me feel important and to let me know he’s working hard for me. I hope I don’t move again but if I do I’m definitely calling him back.

Jared West was a GOD SEND. He made this entire process easy and less stressful for us. He was extremely knowledgable ..and so kind to us...that he feels like family. It never felt like he was trying to think only of himself..he was genuinely looking out for his customers..he knew so much ...the process from beginning to end. When we started looking ..o got so many calls from others..my neighbor told me about their realtor. I told my husband about my conversations with Jared and he said ok..we are ready..give him a call. Now that we have found the house..I was sad..because I will miss Jared and the hunt for the house lol. When we sell our current home..Jared will be the one to sell it for us... I hope you guys realize what a gem you have in Mr West. He is a people person. He is extremely knowledgeable. And he i s customer oriented.

I expected this process to be hard from beginning to end, but with Jared it was a breeze! He listened to our wants in a home and when a hour of leaving his office we had a list of homes sent to us. He noted the things we liked in certain homes we looked at and then expanded his search based on his observations. He is a natural businessman and I won’t trust anyone else to help me buy a home

We were working with a different agent that did not perform up to our expectations. We reached out to Jared and informed him that we were moving out of the state and needed our house sold immediately. Jared took over the listing and had the home in contract (at full ask) in less than 10 days!

Jared truly is a one in a million agent. He was both my agent for the sale of my home and purchase of another home located some 90 miles away. What was already a complicated transaction with closings, details, etc. soon became very complex and challenging beyond the normal and expected issues. There were many unforeseen complications that arose for him at every turn and he was there to advocate on my behalf every step of the process. He has an amazing ability to maneuver through the layers of big unresponsive banks to get results. The value of that is priceless. He did an excellent job on finding and negotiating on my behalf a very fair deal for all parties involved and I could not be more happy with his services. Beyond that, he is kind, truly caring, ethical and moral. Highly recommend; superb.

Jared is truly kind at heart. He does his job with such dedication because at the heart of who he is as a person, he really cares about others and, as a result, he finds joy in making their dreams of home ownership come true :) Not only is he hard working and dedicated, but he is so friendly and down to earth. You will definitely have the best of both worlds with West of Your Life :)

"In your case there were multiple offers similar to yours, the reason we chose your offer was because Jared called me and sold me on you. That is why we chose your offer."

I was referred to Jared from Christian Foote at Revolution Mortgage when I first applied for a loan. Christian said Jared was a great realtor, and I would not be unhappy with him. He was most certainly correct about Jared. Jared called me later the same day that Christian sent him my contact info and we were off and running with house hunting. It only took me 2 days to find the perfect house! Jared was excellent in helping me find what I was looking for and in my price range. He was also excellent in keeping me informed and giving me pep talks to keep me from going crazy during the underwriting process. If I were to ever buy/sell a home, I would most definitely use Jared West. I will also recommend him to anyone looking to buy/sell a home!!

Jared has been so helpful throughout the whole process of finding and buying a house. We went through 3 other realtors who made a great argument as to why we should choose them, but when the time came to deliver they were a disappointment. We were passed off to incompetent assistants who took us to see houses that checked none of our boxes. Jared actually took the time to get to know our family and what we were looking for in a home. He listened to our needs and our wants and only sent homes to look at that fit the mold of what we wanted. Our home buying process became stress free because we were no longer doing the work we had to do with our previous realtor. He was there when we needed to get in touch and he showed up every time. We walked through houses and talked about what we would change or add on and he talked about his list of vendors and how he knew the perfect guy for the job when the time came to make those changes. When we closed on our house Jared sent us checklists and explained the whole closing process. He made it so easy. He even bought us pizza on moving day! I highly recommend Jared! Thank you for understanding us and delivering exactly what we wanted. You are such a wonderful person and a fantastic realtor!

Jared is honestly the best at what he does! My home buying process took place when inventory was low so multiple offers and negotiating added a little more stress to the process but Jared helped in so many ways! He truly advocates for his clients and wants you to make the best and smartest decision. He is very personable and treats his clients like family. He responds very quickly and was ready and willing to work with my schedule when scheduling showings. You will not be disappointed with Jared as your realtor!

When my wife and I first met Jared West it was through an open house. As my family walked through the home I was telling Jared all of the things we were looking for in a house. As the conversation broadened and Jared began to bring things to our attention we had not thought about in the previous homes, we decided Jared was the guy we wanted to represent us in finding our next home. His honesty, knowledge, hard work ethic and transparency made the decision of working with him a very easy one. At that point, we had worked with four other realtors, walked through 60 houses in just under 4 months and still did not have our home. Though we did not decide to buy the house after the showing, just 1 week of working with Jared, we put in an offer on a different home and closed 30 days later. The operation was how I expected it should be but Jared was the only realtor that could actually bring it home. Not only did our family get a new home but we gained a new friend in the process. The personal details, unlimited access and willingness to go to whatever lengths necessary to get you into a home that fits your families needs is what my experience was like. If you are in the market to buy, Jared West / E-Merge is who you want to do business with.
