Tell us about your experience with
Michelle Jakovac

    • I'd recommend Michelle in a heartbeat. She was the perfect real estate agent to walk with us on our home buying journey. She is highly knowledgeable about the industry and was absolutely amazing at answering all our questions. She was also very transparent and gave us valuable insights that helped us in our decision making process. She was absolutely patient with us and we never felt pressured or rushed at any moment.

      - Grace Kigeni - Meridian, ID
    • She is so dedicated to making sure everything went well all the way to the end. She was on top of every aspect of finding a house for us, making sure we got a good deal. Making sure inspections and other requirements were met. Laid out a timeline for us. She has gone way and above what I ever dreamed that a agent would do to help us find a home. She is far the best realtor I have ever been exposed to. Highly recommended.

      - Richard Wilson - Meridian, ID
    • Michelle is absolutely amazing! She is incredibly patient and makes sure you find a home that you love. She works tirelessly and advocates for her clients. Her communication and response time are fantastic. She is also honest and fair. Plus, she's a delight to work with. By far the best real estate agent I've ever encountered!

      - Robyn Wilson - Meridian, ID
    • Michelle is the most exceptional real estate agent you will find. We have reached out to Michelle on several properties to buy and sell; she is a superstar.Attention to detail, professional and always kept us informed. And, even though we are in our home; she is still sending us reminders - for example to file our home owners exemption before the deadline, etc. We moved from out of state and put our total trust in her to manage our new build. We couldnt be more pleased with her performance.Michelle has a 5-star recommendation from us. If you are looking for superb customer service and expertise Jakovac Real Estate is the best!

      - Bertie Jean Jensen-Pearce - Fruitland, ID
    • My family and I were in a position where we needed to find a home and finalize a close date less than a month after making contact with Michelle. Which we were worried was not doable. Michelle connected us with a fantastic lender that was quick to respond and assist with giving us an understanding of our potential purchasing power. Any time we had a question for Michelle, and there were many, the response was prompt and thorough. We had contacted other realtors and the response from them was very delayed and lacking the information we requested. So making the choice to be represented by Michelle was an easy one to make. With the help of Michelle we managed to find the perfect home for our family, and closed inside the timeframe we had given. Michelle is head and shoulders above the others and we would not hesitate in referring her to family and friends.

      - Liam McDonald - Meridian, ID
    • Michelle is still the most awesome real estate agent ever! She sold our home last year and now has helped us purchase a new home. Her perception of what her client needs/wants, real estate knowledge and genuine optimism are key strengths and make an otherwise stressful event so much easier. And let's just add exceptional response time, customer service and attention to detail from our "seller" review. I have already recommended her to others and have plans to recommend her to others! You will NOT be disappointed with Michelle as your realtor ;)

      - Liz Liefer - Kuna, ID
    • Ive moved many times over the years because of work or life changes. This was my most complicated search/purchase yet, and in a state that was completely new to me. Michelle was an amazing and helpful guide through this entire process & I cannot recommend her highly enough! She understood my needs, helped me find wonderful options all while staying within my budget. 5 stars!

      - Mark Taylor - Boise, ID
    • Michelle was the best realtor we have ever had, with the knowledgeable experience in buying property. She was very friendly, thoughtful and followed up to every little detail. She did not miss a beat.Michelle was kind, never pushy, as in wanting you to push you towards a contract and always offered excellent advice, suggestions and things to think about before moving ahead. Michelle always had your needs as her top priority Would definitely use her again for any real estate transactions we have in the future! Simply the best!

      - Linda Wilson - Parma, ID
    • Michelle is amazing! She was my real estate agent 8 years ago when I was in the market for a smaller place for my son and I. I could only afford a 2 bedroom townhouse. She was patient and took the time to explain everything, making me feel so comfortable and valued as a client! She kept me on her mailing list all these years, inviting me to thoughtful client appreciation events and sending helpful information.Fast forward to now, the decision was easy when I was back in the market to upgrade. I knew right away to reach out to Michelle once again and Im so happy I did. She truly makes the process of buying a home SO easy. Shes extremely knowledgeable, thinks of every little thing, sends reminders, has unmatched communication, and shes just amazing all around. It feels like youre working with your friend, she truly cares about her clients!

      - April Stevens - Boise, ID
    • Michelle is a consummate professional... her client communication & organizational management skills are top notch, evidenced by the fact that our 2 transactions with her were more than 4 years apart! Would highly recommend her for any real estate transaction.

      - Debra Schwark - Meridian, ID
    • Michelle is very professional without making you feel too dumb, she really fights for what you want out of the deal. She is always available for your questions no matter how small. I can understand why she has so many connections to help with your needs because she is a great person with such great energy people love to be around her.

      - Bree Brodersen - Meridian, ID
    • Michelle is a rockstar. She's professional, fun and showed genuine compassion and understanding of my needs/wants. She's extremely reliable and straightforward, and always responded to queries and concerns with expertise.Thanks to her staying on top of every detail of the process I was able to close without a hiccup. I would recommend Michelle to all. If you are looking to buy a home, and need a real estate expert to guide you through the twists and turns of purchasing and provide some laughs along the way, look no further

      - Daniela Wolters - Boise, ID
    • My wife and I were buying our first house and it was out of state. We could not have asked for a better experience than Michelle gave us. She is very organized and knowledgeable. Being out of state we really only wanted to visit once and put an offer in. Michelle thoughtfully planned our tours and did a lot of work for us before we even got to town. We were able to get our favorite house for under list price and under our budget, largely in part to Michelle's negotiation. Her service did not stop after the sale, quite the opposite actually. We received step-by-step help in all the closing details. Michelle made it seamless, we didn't even have to go into the title office. She went above and beyond by meeting companies on our behalf at the home since we were not in town. We highly recommend Michelle if you are looking for a realtor near Boise, we could not be any happier with her.

      - Stephen Vikla - Meridian, ID
    • I have never worked with a realtor who was as organized and helpful as Michelle Jakovac. She was an absolute pleasure to work with. She even raked up 7 bags of leaves herself to make sure the yard looked nice before showing.I would highly recommend Michelle!

      - Kate Leavitt - Boise, ID
    • Michelle was extremely dedicated to the search for my new home. She found a house that had every single element I wanted (even ones I didn't know I wanted!) and I am so grateful to her for finding a great house for me! :) She is very responsive to calls, texts and emails! I know who I'll go to when I decide to move again!

      - Shannon Dearing - Meridian, ID
    • Michelle is an amazing real estate agent and an overall great person. She was really helpful throughout the entire home-buying process and really made me feel like I had a friend in the real estate business. She is thorough and organized & she is hilarious and fun! I will definitely recommend her to everyone.

      - April Stevens - Boise, ID
    • This was only the second home I've ever purchased so I was not very comfortable with the whole process. However, working with Michelle made me feel confident and at ease. She responded quickly to all my questions and was very proactive on my behalf. I'm new to Idaho and she thoroughly explained the differences between the way things are handled during my purchase. Even now, several months after my home purchase she contacts me with useful money-saving information and tips. I appreciated her knowledge, professionalism, and experience so much, I have since recommended friends to her that are considering moving here.

      - Cindy Leal - Nampa, ID
    • Michelle provided "5 Star Service" from start to finish.We relocated 1,900 miles cross country and did a new home build from the ground up, all remotely with Michelle's help.Michelle did a superb job with every detail and provided weekly video progress updates on the construction of our new home at every stage.She is thoughtful and accountable in her approach, highly responsive and knowledgeable, and was professional and cordial in all aspects of the transaction.A stellar real estate partner on all fronts.We highly recommend Michelle.

      - Doug Murray - Boise, ID
    • We cant say enough good things about our Realtor, Michelle Jakovac. Michelle checks all the Realtor skill boxes and then takes it several steps beyond. Whether you are purchasing an existing home or building new, Michelle will go the extra mile to negotiate and represent your best interest. Even though we were 1500 miles away, Michelle kept us updated on our build on a regular basis by sending us walkthrough videos and communicating with the builder as appropriate. We could never have done it without her. Along with our build she assisted our daughter in finding a home as well! Michelle is by far the hardest working realtor we know. Thank you Michelle, you are truly AWESOME!

      - Jerry & Theresa Vikla - Emmett, ID

      - Jeff Benson - Eagle, ID
    • The circumstances surrounding my home search and home buying experience were especially challenging. Exploring a market and geographical location completely new/unknown to me, and attempting to do it from 1,600 miles away. Michelle was absolutely the ideal professional for me to work with. She possessed a thorough and detailed knowledge of the area and real estate market and patiently devoted the time necessary to help me focus on and assess properties that were aligned with my preferences. The process culminated in the purchase of a wonderful home in a perfect location. I could not be more pleased with the end result, and also the process that led to it. Michelle is the absolute best in the business. You will never regret placing your full trust in her.

    • Michelle is the best real estate agent there is. She cares about us and whats best. This is the second time we have used her and recommend her to anyone. She gets stuff done and we all end with what we want. Thank you for being the best!!!!

      - Kate Reed - Meridian, ID
    • Five stars simply isnt enough. If I could give a higher rating, I certainly would. From start to finish, Michelle made the home buying process as simple and painless as possible. She is TRULY committed, and a true professional. She is the BEST at communication and responds to all requests immediately. Honestly, aside from being amazing at her job, shes a downright awesome human being. If Michelle is your real estate agent, youre in good hands.

      - Mark de Jong - Caldwell, ID
    • This woman is amazing! There is so much information and terminology with Home Buying. She sat down with us multiple times to talk about the process, she was at all the meetings, answered questions quickly every step of the way. All of the people she connected with us were a perfect fit, the lender, the inspector, the title company. We felt completely taken care of. Everyone said how much they love Michelle and I see why she becomes your best ally when buying a home!

      - Julie Bean - Boise, ID

      - Jane Breitkreutz - Fruitland, ID
    • If you are looking for a real estate agent in the Boise area go with Michelle! She has sold 2 homes in the past year for our family and has delivered top quality service both times. She is hands down the most professional and knowledgeable realtor we have ever had. She helps her clients navigate the Boise market whether you are selling or buying.
