Meet Jacob
I live real estate.
But I never forget it is your life.
As a Seattle and Eastside real estate broker, Jacob combines responsive communication, careful property analysis, and practical negotiation with an approachable style. Washington roots, Seattle perspective, and a standard of representation built on strategy, consistency, and genuine care.
Real estate is what I do every day, but for my clients, it represents something much bigger: a new beginning, a major investment, a difficult transition, or the home they have spent years working toward. That is something I never take lightly.
I believe you should understand the reasoning behind every recommendation, know what is happening throughout the process, and feel completely confident that the person representing you is fully in your corner. My job is to bring clarity to complicated decisions, anticipate the details, and make an important move feel manageable and even enjoyable.
Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, my roots in this region run deep. Seattle is more than a market I study. It is where I have built my life, my career, and my community. I know this area through its neighborhoods and architecture, its changing skyline, its local restaurants, its sports traditions, and most importantly, the people who make it feel like home.
Since becoming a broker in 2018, I have represented buyers and sellers throughout Seattle, the Eastside, and the broader Puget Sound region. My experience spans first homes, condos and townhomes, relocations, investments, move-up purchases, and multimillion-dollar residences. Whatever the price point, my standard remains the same.
For sellers, that means thoughtful preparation, purposeful pricing, elevated presentation, targeted marketing, and a strategy built around the property, not pulled from a template. For buyers, it means disciplined market analysis, honest advice, careful due diligence, and negotiation designed around their specific priorities.
Data informs my strategy, but people guide every decision.
How I work
Luxury is a standard of care.
To me, luxury is not defined only by a price point. It is defined by the quality of your representation: the preparation you never had to ask for, the details you never had to worry about, and the confidence of knowing someone is protecting your interests at every step.
That is the experience I work to deliver to every client.
Tell the truth
Direct advice, even when it is not the easiest answer, so you can decide with confidence.
Prepare completely
Market analysis, presentation, and negotiation are strongest when the details are handled early.
Stay engaged
Clear communication and personal attention from the first strategy session through closing and beyond.
Protect the outcome
Every recommendation is evaluated against your goals, leverage, risk, and long-term interests.
Coaching shaped the adviser
Preparation. Communication. Adjustment.
Much of the way I work has been shaped by basketball. I have coached players from youth programs through the college level, including serving on a championship coaching staff. Coaching taught me how to prepare thoroughly, communicate directly, adjust when circumstances change, and remain steady when the pressure rises. It also taught me that trust is earned through consistency, something I carry into every client relationship.
Outside of real estate, you will probably find me at a Huskies, Seahawks, or Mariners game, coaching basketball, exploring Seattle’s food scene, or dancing at a concert. I love this region and genuinely enjoy helping people find their place within it.
Real estate is never merely about a property. It is about your life, your goals, and what comes next.
