Real Estate On Tap

Testimonials

Testimonials are just that … a written or spoken statement, sometimes from a public figure, sometimes from a private citizen, extolling the virtue of some product.  For Jason A. Kapit, Esq., that product is not the homes or properties we assist in buying or selling, but rather the commodity of service!

When our clients, fellow co-workers, colleagues, etc. offer testimonials, we publish them (as written) to remind everyone why we do what we do on a daily basis.  Real Estate is a very complex, often times cutthroat business.  Our integrity dictates that we will always do the right thing by our clients and in doing so, maintain the highest level of professional and ethical conduct.

Sure there is reward in the form of commissions and sales, but our real reward comes from consistent acknowledgments (referrals, repeat business &  continued professional relationships) from our clients and peers of a job well done!  Our clients are our existence and we will do everything we can to maintain that while providing the highest level of service.  Thank you to our clients for allowing us to represent you.  It is truly appreciated!

Bumpy BUT Successful Ride for Pembroke Pines’ Laguna Isles Sale

In The Spirit of Full Disclosure

To say everything goes smoothly all the time would be foolish.  While we always strive to do our best, there is always the potential for issues to arise and when that happens, our shift focuses on insuring that the nothing derails the ultimate sale.  In selling 19364 SW 66th Street, in the fabulous Pembroke Pines community of Laguna Isles, we encountered a few hurdles, but we were able to manage them and successfully close the deal.  The deal had all the potential hiccups and then some … inspection, appraisal, lost bank data, you name it, we encountered it.  In the end, all was good.  Buyers got the home they wanted.  Sellers got the price they wanted and we were able to facilitate everything in record time without any major delay.

The Unedited “Thank You” and subsequent Response (Testimonial)

We like to do things a bit different here and as such, we have chosen to publish the latest correspondence with our sellers so you can get a glimpse of the emotion and the reality of how our clients really feel about us.

Jay,

Thank you for your expertise and assistance in the sale of our Laguna Isles home. We also appreciate all of your support and guidance in the purchase of our new home.  We recognize the effort of all parties in being able to close on both homes in a short period of time. Our frustration at the end was the communication gaps at times … we were not sure when and where things would take place.  Mark extends an apology for his discussion with you.  We would like to take this opportunity to also thank David Betancourt for his professionalism, support and guidance through this process.  It has truly been a pleasure working with David.  Our family values the relationship we have with you. You will always be the realtor we recommend to our family, friends and business associates.

We wish you and your family a wonderful Holiday Season and Prosperous New Year!!!!

Maria and Mark Reuther

Denver Broncos’ Andre Goodman Sells Weston, FL Home

Andre Goodman Turns To Kapit To Sell Weston Home

It’s always great when the “elite in their respective profession” seek your guidance and representation.  Such was the case when Andre Goodman decided to sell his Weston, FL home.  Goodman, previously a cornerback for the Miami Dolphins was traded to the Denver Broncos in 2009.  For the past few years he was renting the home to former Miami Dolphins Special Teams coach John Bonamego.  When Bonamego took a recent position with the New Orleans Saints, the Goodman family decided it might be time to sell.

The Weston Hills Country Club Residence

The Goodman’s Weston residence was a phenomenal family home in the Hunters Pointe subdivision of Weston Hills Country Club.  Kapit, who also lived in Weston Hills for 10 years has had a lot of success selling there and Goodman sought out his services as someone with the knowledge, experience and ability to garner a premium price for the home.

While making an interception return for a touchdown this season against the Jets (courtesy of Getty Images above), Andre texted (Yes, he can multitask.  The cellphone is in his back pocket – LOL)

“Jason, thanks for all your help. I’m very pleased with the outcome of your efforts in selling my home. Your marketing skills and knowledge of the market was instrumental in attracting buyers. I’m completely satisfied with the short amount of time my home was on the market, as well as the price at which it sold. Can’t thank you enough!”

Former MLB Star sells Windmill Ranch Home in Weston, FL

Opportunity to Represent Professional Athletes

Through success and hard work, I often have the opportunity to meet and represent professional athletes.  Such an opportunity availed itself this year when I was introduced to Jeff and Keisha Hammonds.  Weston residents for some time, they decided they wanted to return to Alabama to be closer to family and needed my help selling their Windmill Ranch estate in Weston, FL.

“Jason Kapit is an outstanding Realtor. We encountered a few challenges during the selling of our home, but he was never pushy or aggressive with us to settle for the sake of selling.  He listened to our requests and concerns and literally did what he said he would do, which was refreshing to say the least in today’s environment. And, he always went above and beyond to assist us whenever needed. His knowledge, patience, and integrity truly differentiates his service from all others. I would recommend Jason Kapit without reservation.”

Short Sale Success For Billy Beck III

I am fortunate to represent great clients who are leaders in the community.  I am humbled when those I admire seek out my real estate services.  So when Billy Beck (aka BB3) asked for my help, it was a no-brainer.  He had been giving me health & wellness tips for years and my wife practically lives in his gym.  After an ehxaustive and rather tedious process with third parties, we were able to get this deal done.

“I’ve dealt with a lot of Realtors and most are great at making excuses.  When I started working with Jay Kapit I immediately realized that he never made an excuse.  He provided solid facts and took the time to explain my options.  Beyond that, Jay is RELENTLESS (I’m pretty sure he doesn’t sleep)! He gets the job done.  I give Jay Kapit my 100% endorsement. He is the man!”

6.13 Acre Cooper City Property Sells to Cash Buyer

{unedited Testimonial}

Jason,

Darlene and I would like to express our gratitude for selling our South Florida property. When we inherited this property it had previously been on the market for 3 years with hardly any activity.

After listing the property with you, it was amazing the amount of activity that you were able to generate given the fact that we were relatively still at the same price that the previous broker had it at for the last 6 months of their listing.

Your experience as both a realtor and as an attorney was a winning combination for us since we live out of the area. Your negotiating skills were second to none. We trusted that your review of the documents would be complete and you certainly did not let us down.

I interviewed several agents in the South Florida marketplace prior to hiring you and to be honest; none of them even came close to your level of communication and responsiveness.  We would have no reservations recommending you and your team to any of our friends who were looking to sell their property.

Kudos to you and your team!   All the Best,   Lars & Darlene

Successful Rental in Cooper City, FL

EWM Guys do RENTALS!

Often times, clients or would-be clients inadvertently make the mistake of thinking that we only sell high-priced homes.  Not true, says Jason Kapit, Team Leader of the EWM Guys.  “This is a relationship business, not a property business.  Our relationships dictate what we sell, always!  If a client needs us to find or sell a multi-million dollar property, that’s what we do, but that same client might need us to rent an investment property.  Certainly we are not going to say no.  We are there for our clients in whatever capacity is required.” Read the rest of this entry »

Tough Deal DONE in Weston, FL Bonaventure Townhome

Successful Purchase for Juan Naranjo at Townhouse Village at Bonaventure

When Juan and his wife Rita decided to buy in Weston, they were looking for a deal!  Like everyone else, they wanted to capitalize on a short sale or foreclosure and do so in a timely manner.  Typically, distressed deals take an inordinate amount of time, especially short sales because of the 3d party (lender) requirements, verifications, BPOs and ultimately approval by the sellers lender that the shortfall amount will be accepted.  *** this deal got done in 60 days!***

“I commend you and your team for a job well done. This was a tough deal and at the end all your efforts to close paid off . Thank you.” (comment from happy Buyer, Juan Naranjo standing next to “EWM Guys” team member James San Martin)
