Jack is the Realtor He has been beyond helpful and an invaluable resource in the sale of our home summer of 2022. Not only did we get sound trusted advice in every move we made, but he comes highly connected to other affordable professionals for any issue that could arise whether buying or selling. It was obvious that he had a wealth of knowledge in this industry and had an answer for any possible scenario. He was always very prompt in replying to us and the contacts he referred us to for repairs were not only prompt, professional, and affordable but also spoke highly of Jack. It was very apparent to us through this whole process that of the many realtors we have encountered in our lives (we've bought 4 homes and sold 3) Jack is at the top of the list! He truly is about helping his client to the best of his abilities regardless of what his commission is. If we could use him to represent …

Look forward to working with Jack in the future or connecting him to friends/family looking to buy or sell in the Hampton Roads area.
Jack Blake was the sole factor in the successful purchase of our current home. Faced with the stress of engaging in the complications of a short-sale transaction, Jack walked us through the minefield of delays, counter-offers, and negotiations with an out-of-country REIT to finally (after 8 months) triumphantly go to closing. During this prolonged negotiation, Jack, whenever asked, would patiently and professionally show us (without protest) numerous alternative properties even though he knew we were putting all of our eggs into the short sale process. Without his creativity, expertise, knowledge of the market, and attention to detail, we are confident we could have never secured our home. A favorite saying of Jack's is he doesn't sell real estate but instead solves problems. We can honestly attest to the fact that Jack is a highly-talented "problem solver" and has become someone we are …

Jack Blake was recommended to me by my elder brother, and this is high praise in itself. Jack is an honorable and wonderful man. He walked me through the crazy market and opened my eyes. He advised me and guided me. After a few months of many properties, he stayed with me. I started to feel like I may have been taking too much of his time or being too demanding, but Jack did not express any bad feelings against me. He wanted me to be happy with my purchase and not to have regrets. Finally came a house that I felt at home in upon entering. Jack was able to get inspections and we could make a game plan. Jack was able to get the price reduced to cover the costs of repairs to make it move-in ready. I was also able to put aside money for some future improvements I would like to make happen. Thank You, Jack for being an awesome realtor and becoming a true friend.
Jack is the realtor you want to use. We were from out of town and looking to sell our dad's house which had recently passed. Jack passed on the easy sale and instead, he introduced us to a local realtor that does multi-day and weekly rentals. Jack gave up the sale to do what was In our best interest. We are able to keep our dad's house in the family and make great money as well. A realtor that truly has the client's best interest at heart. One of a kind. Thank you, Jack! Side note: Jack did show up to our meeting with comps and showed us very impressive comps if we were going to sell, and he definitely did his homework. We couldn’t pass up on the rental opportunity.
Focusing on getting clients the best value and also preventing any unnecessary setbacks or delays in the process has helped set Jack apart from other agents in Southeastern Virginia.
