Real Estate with a Straightforward Approach
Jake Feldman got into real estate because he enjoys working with people, likes the challenge of negotiation, and saw room to grow. He's here to help clients move forward with clarity and confidence.
Why Work with Jake?
Knows the Land: Before getting into real estate, Jake worked as a land surveyor. That experience gave him a solid understanding of property boundaries and land use—knowledge that adds real value when evaluating homes and lots.
Hands-On Background: He then moved into rental property management, where he learned how homes function day to day and what makes a smart investment. That hands-on role is what ultimately pushed him to become an agent and work more closely with people.
Clear and Direct: Jake believes in setting expectations early, staying in close communication, and walking his clients through each step of the process. He doesn't overcomplicate things.
The Way He Works
Jake treats each transaction seriously and wants every client to feel like they’re in good hands. He knows buying or selling a home is a major decision and works hard to keep the process simple, smooth, and well-managed from start to finish.
Local Focus
Jake lives and works in Grand Rapids. He appreciates the variety of neighborhoods and the mix of city life and open space. Whether you’re looking downtown or in a quieter area, Jake knows how to guide you through the options.
Outside of Real Estate
When he's off the clock, Jake spends his time exercising, cooking, admiring cars, and watching movies. He also has a Pomeranian named Elvis who keeps things interesting at home.
