What Our Clients Have to Say

"Jay far exceeded any expectations my wife and I had in a realtor. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and most importantly, he gets things done. We met with Jay for the first time, sharing what we were looking for, etc., and 3 days later we were under contract to buy a home we absolutely loved! Jay was extremely efficient - he was prompt in answering any questions we had throughout the process. Ultimately, he took a situation that could have been quite stressful and turned it into a breeze. We’ve been in our new home for several months now and could not be happier - thank you Jay!

NICK H.
"Jay provided us with prompt, professional, and friendly service in helping us find our new home. He was always readily available for questions and showings and responded promptly any time we had a question. Jay was able to make this often difficult process feel more like we had a knowledgeable friend helping us than some random hired salesperson. When we hit a snag in the deal just before closing, Jay’s real estate expertise helped us negotiate an agreeable solution. We wouldn’t hesitate at all in recommending Jay for any real estate transaction."

SCOTT G.
"Jay is far and away the best realtor we have ever worked with. We had to move before our house was listed, and Jay took care of everything, getting it ready for sale, and arranging for work that had to be done. Whenever we needed to contact him, he always promptly responded, and he made an extra effort always to keep us updated during the sales process. What was most impressive was the easy give and take we had, when it came to decisions about pricing, or accepting offers from buyers, or deciding on what to do about our buyer's contingency requests. Simply put, Jay got the job done, was easy to work with, and made an always difficult process easy."

HAL R.
"Beginning with our first phone call, we felt very comfortable with Jay because he seemed to be thorough, patient, kind, and knowledgeable. He is a great listener as well as an insightful adviser. Throughout the process, Jay always responded to our messages and phone calls promptly. He was eager to hear our thoughts after seeing each house and frequently gave us valuable feedback, including alerting us to issues about which we otherwise would not have been aware."

ALLI & BOB B.
"Jay is absolutely amazing at what he does. Having failed at trying to find a house in a different state, my husband and I were starting to give up on the idea of owning a home in the current market but Jay helped us find our home! I don't think we would've gotten our offer accepted without all of Jay's tricks and tips! Plus he has contacts for almost every type of work we've needed done to our house which has been super helpful. He has great restaurant recs too ;)"

MELISSA J.
"Jay was super knowledgeable about Bellingham, as well as contracting and building, and he was incredibly patient with first-time home buyers. He provided individualized advice and really understood and helped us discover our priorities. We never felt pressured to make a quick decision. He's also an authentically nice guy and fun to spend time with -- we really enjoyed getting to know him. It didn't feel like a business transaction at all!"

MEGAN S.
"We met Jay about 2 years ago, we just clicked and knew that he was the right real estate agent for us. Jay is the most personable agent you will ever meet. We had been looking for the perfect home for years and he was very patient with us. Anytime we had questions about anything and he did not know the answer he went the extra mile to find out and gave us the most information he could find to allow us to make the best decisions. Jay not only wants to find his clients the perfect home but he wants his clients to make the best decisions possible. We feel so grateful that we found a real estate agent who was very caring, attentive, patient and very knowledgeable."

THE VENTURA FAMILY
"Jay is a remarkable, knowledgeable, timely and kind real estate agent. He educated us on what we should be looking for, how to narrow down choices, how to negotiate and write offers. While I was learning from him, he was absorbing all kinds of information from us including hobbies, careers, friends, family, pets, likes and dislikes. It took less than a month with Jay to find our home, and not only am I happy to have a house I love, I am happy to have an amazing friend like Jay!"

KEENEN H.
"Jay has been such a dear friend and ally throughout our housing journey. He made my family and I feel supported and optimistic throughout a usually stressful process. We were on a time crunch doing a 10-31 exchange and he managed to find us a beautiful lake spot in one of the most challenging markets ever."

KEARA
"Cannot thank Jay enough and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a smooth and HUMAN real estate experience. I feel lucky we stumbled across this gem of a person and he is definitely now a friend."

KEARA
"Our connection was easy and genuine. We were impressed with his professionalism and knowledge of the market. And his positive attitude helped put us at ease with this crazy real estate market. We saw several types of homes, and Jay was always prompt to the showings and answered all our questions and concerns. When we finally found our home, we took Jay’s advise, put an offer right away and it was accepted the next morning! We’ve learned that in this market, you need a realtor that can position you above everyone else. And Jay Chen did that for us! We highly recommend Jay Chen!"

ARMI C.
"Jay had a wealth of knowledge and helped answer all our questions about the area, the homes we were looking at, and how to put together compelling offers. He was prompt in responding to our texts or calls and was always down to go to a showing on our behalf and send back videos to save us some trips. We were super glad to have Jay in our corner during this process! A++++ would recommend."

PHILLIP B.
"I'm sure Jay regularly works with clients with bigger budgets than mine however, he still provided a first class experience. I felt respected and cared for every step of the way. I hope to stay in my new home for a long, long time. If the time comes to for something different, Jay will be the first person I call."

CHRIS S.
"My husband and I had a wonderful and successful experience working with Jay Chen and his team. Jay made us feel like family with his thoughtfulness and consistent communication. He never made us feel like we were asking a dumb question, which was comforting and helpful as first time buyers. We highly recommend working with Jay!"

ELLEN S.
"The passion for his work is obvious and you will absolutely benefit from the effort and energy he puts forth. Jay maintains professionalism at every turn, yet builds a rapport to take down the formal, business-like curtain and instills genuine warmth and understanding."

WESLEY S.
"Jay's commitment to making the house buying process accessible and understandable provides such a sense of security and calm throughout the entire process. He will do everything in his power to accommodate you. Do yourself a favor and call on Jay and his team for anything real estate related!"

WESLEY S.
"Best Realtor you will ever find! Jay returned calls/texts in record time. He was extremely knowledgeable about the markets, laws, codes, and a plethora of other details. His team works very hard and was lighting fast at getting information back to us. Buying a home can be such a stressful ordeal, but Jay is truly a professional and helped every step of the way. If you are looking to buy or sell, contact Jay. You won’t regret it."
