Jeff Blackham is professional, knowledgeable, personable and works exceedingly hard for his clients.
As first time home buyers, we didn’t know what to expect. Jeff Blackham made it so easy. He went above and beyond in educating us on the real estate industry, and helped us find our dream home. We couldn't be more thrilled with the process. He was able to use different algorithms to estimate what a fair price would be for both us and the sellers.
We can’t thank him enough for all the time and energy he put into helping us.
He is truly the best realtor in the region!!

I first met Jeff at an open house, and his enthusiasm, professionalism, and attentiveness really stood out. It made my decision easy when choosing him to help us find our family home in Waterloo.
I'm so glad I made that choice.
Jeff was knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and always willing to lend a hand. He went above and beyond multiple times to ensure our family felt comfortable and well taken care of. I was particularly impressed with his negotiation skills. He even personally handled an issue, completely out of his own pocket, when the sellers left the home in less-than-ideal condition.
Jeff truly knows his stuff, is straightforward, advocates fiercely for his clients, and consistently follows through on his promises. What more could you ask for?

I first met Jeff Blackham at a neighbouring open house, where we spent a good half hour discussing the possibility of selling my home. He asked insightful questions, patiently answered all of mine, and ultimately assisted me in selling my Kitchener house and purchasing a new one in Listowel in a short time frame.
Jeff and Stephanie were friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive throughout the process.
Thank you so much, Jeff and Stephanie!

Me and my wife were recommended to Jeff by friends of ours that recently just purchased a house. He was super awesome. Always took the the time to show us places till we found out first home. He knew what to look for when going for a walk through.

We were recommended Jeff from friends who he had helped to purchase a home. We're so happy they got us connected with him. He was very helpful with his knowledge of the market and made us feel comfortable though the whole process. He and his team were amazing in helping us get our first time home. Thanks Jeff!

We can't recommend Jeff and his team highly enough! He took us through an unexpectedly fast purchase and sale with creativity, expertise, and compassion. He was able to spot a unique opportunity for our new home and make the most of it, to our advantage. He provided the resources and expertise to sell our home quickly and successfully. He guided us through some scary and unfamiliar processes and made it as easy as possible, with great outcomes! His personable style made him a pleasure to work with, and his expertise proved itself time and time and time again and gave us great confidence. Many thanks Jeff and team for making this experience so outstanding!

Jeff is an amazing agent to work with...he combines analysis of trends and numbers with a thorough knowledge of the process and great observations/suggestions. He works to ensure you have a full understanding of the process and explains things in easy to understand terms. He is also extremely responsive and makes himself readily available when needed. 3 years ago, Jeff helped us purchase a home for our son, his wife and their kids. This year, when they were able to qualify for their own mortgage, Jeff stepped in to connect them with a great mortgage broker and also assisted us with a purchase agreement. He's kept in touch with us the entire time to see how we're doing and whether we need anything. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a great agent to guide them through their home buying journey!

We met Jeff during an open house he was holding while we were “just looking” at the houses on the market. We had met a few other realtors already, but Jeff was the only one who asked the important yet difficult questions that we had been avoiding. From that first conversation it was clear that Jeff cared about our needs and wants.
We kept in touch with Jeff while we continued to casually browse the market. Even though we were upfront that we had no plans to buy many of the houses we visited, Jeff still graciously donated his time. He was invaluable in helping us learn what we did and didn’t like in a home, and not once did he make us feel pressured into moving on anything before we were ready.
After a few months of this we decided that we were ready. We found a place we loved and Jeff helped us close on our first home. We highly recommend Jeff to anyone looking for their next home. From mortgage brokers to home inspectors to contractors, Jeff has connections with great people everywhere and it’s made the process so much easier.

We met Jeff at an open house for another property on a Friday night. Jeff asked lots of questions about what we were looking for and asked if we were working with an agent. He was communicative without being pushy. We worked through a virtual appointment to sign up with Jeff as our agent, never looked back! He was amazing throughout the whole process. We looked at about 10 properties with Jeff, and he sent us emails daily of new listings. He advised us to be ready if we needed to act fast on offer, and we did! Within 5 hours of viewing our home to placing the offer, our offer was accepted. So Happy! Thanks Jeff, Catrina, Nikki and David.

From the moment we first had thoughts about selling to the day we were firmly decided, Jeff was extremely supportive and patient and provided us with the facts, figures and knowledge to make informed decisions and set realistic expectations. He and his team helped us to move quickly to ready our home for sale, which allowed us to ultimately sell for our target price and ideal closing date. On the day of our offer review, Jeff took time out from his family vacation and put his negotiating skills to work to ensure that we were completely happy with the outcome. We are extremely grateful for his professionalism and extensive industry knowledge. We knew we were in good hands from the first time we met!

Listings KW Realty was a great choice for us. The whole team seems to work really well together, and it was clear they were all working efficiently, quickly, and professionally to sell our home. Mattin was our sales rep and he was very friendly, engaging, and professional. We sold our home while we were out of the country, and we had no doubts that everything was being taken care of very well, and that was one of our biggest priorities, knowing we weren't going to be around.

Jeff is a great agent! He remembers the little details and is clear on expectations and deliverables! The team was always quick to respond to questions or help update schedule requests.

Jeff and his team did a phenomenal job of obtaining my business, preparing my house to market, and ultimately getting me an AMAZING price for my home.
Having only met Jeff through a summer door-knocking exercise, he quickly demonstrated an interest in my situation to sell, following up immediately thereafter with confirmation that he’s available whenever I might have questions. His respect for my time in reaching out every month or so thereafter with a non-invasive text message including hot tips about the market was perfect for my comfort level in feeling supported but not bombarded like some agents. Before even signing on with him, Jeff was an amazing resource for market knowledge and navigated the fast-paced changes during COVID to provide me with sound advice on timing, price and strategy to sell my home.
Jeff held my priorities as paramount in his communications, preparing a custom, comprehensive market data package about my property including multiple algorithms to determine the best-selling price, which ultimately gained him my business.
From the moment I signed, Jeff and his team made the process very easy. They provided payment for cleaning services, a staging consultation, fantastic image and video to capture my home, and support for my many questions along the way.
My home was sold for more than $300k over the asking price, and I could not be more pleased.
Jeff’s personable and friendly client approach, coupled with his professional presence as a realtor, and his killer strategy, he certainly has a leg up on any other realtor out there.
I would highly recommend Jeff and his team to sell your home!

Jeff has a strong commitment towards his client which is difficult to find these days. He helped us identify objectives for our investment property and gave sound advise on whether properties were going to meet our criteria. He clearly wanted a win for us and to build a long term relationship versus trying to make a quick sales - he was honest in his assessments and laid out transparently any pitfalls (and advantages) of making offers for potential properties. Jeff has very strong knowledge of the Kitchener / Waterloo areas which was our focus to buy and helped land a fantastic deal!

The first time I met Jeff I was immediately impressed. I wasn't 100% ready to sell at the time, but Jeff went above and beyond regardless. He drove to a hardware store and repaired my door bell that same day. He stayed in touch, in a gentle respectful way, and 4 years later, I called him to officially sell my home.

In an industry with many agents “playing” real estate agent, there are a select few, like Jeff Blackham, who are strongly engaged and pour everything into their business platform. That is just one of the reasons why we chose Jeff to navigate us through the very difficult and emotional task of selling our childhood home. He went above and beyond to help lessen the load and make it easier on us, and it was greatly appreciated. He has a special gift for selling a home in a way that honours what the home has meant to you.
In our first meeting, Jeff stood apart, by how prepared, detailed, and thorough he was. This was evident when he brought an extremely in-depth analysis of our home, including an 82-point action plan, and then took the time to go over every single detail. Jeff’s platform included more open houses than traditionally done,provided, extensive marketing approaches, and great connections with other people in the industry with the same level of integrity and service. Jeff was approachable and reliable, and would always return our call, email, or text promptly.
We would highly recommend Jeff to anyone who wants an agent who will put in the research, effort, and resources to achieve the best possible result with care.

Jeff Blackham and Tyler Little from Keller Williams are amazing! We have bought and sold several times over the last few years in Cambridge Ontario and recently decided to try them out to sell our renovated home. Together they make an amazing team of volume and finesse. The property was marketed well, with a great video, posted in multiple real estate boards for maximum visibility. We couldn’t be happier with the results of the sale of our home. We had over 100 showings in 1 week, 14 offers, and sold well over asking. They met and exceeded all of our expectations and I would recommend them to anyone. My main piece of advise would be to let them take the lead with pricing and marketing, it’s hard to give up control, but they are the experts and the strategy works! Thanks guys for a great result and the first of many.

Selling my property with Listings KW Realty Group in Brantford, ON. It was a fairly quick and simple process. Jeff Blackham and Andrea Bailey took care of my listing and sale. They both took the time with me to answer all of my questions I had and walk me through the process of listing my property to the sale of my property. They checked in with me every few days to make sure I was doing ok through the process, because it can be quite stressful, and also to answer any questions I had if any had come up. When listing I was asked questions about what my goals were around the property and hopes to achieve with the sale. Jeff and Andrea made sure to achieve the goals set out for my property and even came out a little bit more than the goal! What more can a person ask for. The process was made as easy and comfortable for me as it could possibly be. They kept me in the loop the entire time and they came through on everything they said they would from the day of signing the contract to marketing my property to selling in a quick time frame to even working on getting the closing date around what I needed. I would definatly work with Keller Williams again and would recommend their services.

We appreciated Jeff's detailed explanation on the whole buying and selling process. Our experience with buying in Ontario was very limited and Jeff made it easy for us to understand. Jeff always goes above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. He managed to sell our house (after buying it a year ago) at a top price well over our expectations. We also worked with another member of Jeff's team, Andrea, during the purchasing process. Andrea was also very professional and went above and beyond to provide support; we could tell a part of her professionalism was due to Jeff's mentorship. We highly recommend Jeff and his team.

This was our second time working with Jeff. Although we gave him short notice, he and his team worked diligently to prepare our home for sale. He was honest and never missed a beat. He was great at adapting to changing markets and provided excellent strategies. Our house was well marketed and had optimal visibility through multiple media platforms. Ultimately we were really happy with the outcome. Jeff made the process of selling comfortable and presented it in a way that helped us understand the market. We hope to continue working with Jeff in the years to come. He really is a knowledgeable realtor.

We worked with Tyler Little on buying our property and Jeff Blackham on selling our property from the ListingsKW Realty Group.
Tyler is patient, kind and a great people person. The great thing about Tyler and Jeff's partnership is that it is very complementary. Tyler takes the time to listen to you and work with you. He's down-to-earth and friendly.
Jeff has the greatest wealth of real estate experience. From owning multiple houses himself, he knows investment properties and houses extremely well and can guide us all. Even when working with Tyler, he makes himself available to Tyler and you, to offer personal insight/experience when you might want additional insight.
Tyler provided us detailed numbers showing us comparable houses to the one we wanted to buy and how much they went for. He was available on text for quick questions and would call us back whenever we had questions.
Jeff is serious but friendly. He is very focused on his game plan. He lays out a detailed plan, providing you insight into comparables in your neighbourhood, lets you know of market trends and thoroughly considers the information you provide. Because he has such a wealth of experience, this has become a fine art for him.
From cleaners, outside drone video footage, videos highlighting your home, staging advice and lawyers, he organizes the process for you so that it all can take place in a timely fashion. His other employees, Alicia and Crystal were also very helpful whenever we needed guidance too.
The ListingsKW Realty Group is a well-oiled machine. We had a short timeline to sell our house and their experience helped us to do so. If you need to sell your home and are particularly time-pressed, they will help to alleviate your concerns because they know what needs to get done and will guide you accordingly. The nights our winning bid was accepted and our house was sold will always be incredibly memorable evenings, not only because of the excitement of these transactions but because the enthusiasm of Tyler, Jeff and Alicia made it that much more special.

Jeff was an absolute pleasure to work with, he very patiently provided all the information I needed to understand the market. He guided me through the entire process of selling my place, from explaining the current market trends, where the market is headed and how timing plays a crucial role. Jeff and his team of professionals, took care of every aspect from taking exceptional pictures and videos, showing the house very well and negotiating a great price for me. Jeff constantly stayed in touch and provided updates as we were going through the process.

Our life has had many changes over the last few years and we have been thrilled to have worked with Jeff through all of them. He has helped us through three different transactions over the last two years, exceeding our expectations time and time again. He has gone out of his way to accommodate our ever changing, and sometimes unreasonable schedules. His knowledge and insight about the market, current trends and anticipatory trends have always been on point, which made it so easy to trust him with any feedback he provided. He truly took pride and care in every detail, as if the buy/sale was his own property to ensure it met/exceeded our expectations - which it always did!. We always have such a great time working with Jeff and cannot recommend him enough!

We were extremely pleased and impressed with Jeff as a real estate agent. He assisted us in navigating a fairly challenging set of negotiations with skill, patience and persistence. Jeff is professional, knowledgeable in terms of the local real estate market, positive and was always optimistic that we would find the property that fit our needs/wants. We were very impressed as well with his analytics with respect to the market value of properties that we were considering. His non-pressured approach throughout the process was greatly appreciated. Overall, I would highly recommend Jeff if you are considering a real estate transaction.

Professional and Competent are two words that I would use to describe Jeff Blackham. From first contact I was impressed with his positive energy and knowledge of the real estate market. He is thorough and very informative.
Selling your home can be very stressful but Jeff and his team of professionals put us at ease and did an amazing job guiding us along the way. He has your back throughout the entire process.
I would recommend Jeff and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell in this area. In fact I have already recommended him to several of our neighbours.
Well done Jeff!

My husband and I are grateful to have been introduced to Jeff Blackham through a personal friend, Krysta Hajovic, director of Operations at KW Realty. We were hesitant to put our house up for sale here in Waterford before our long distance move to Nanaimo, BC. where our sons & families live. Jeff put our minds at ease regarding the timing of this sale in the midst of Covid 19. Our fears were assuaged by his confident professional and methodical interaction with us. He kept us informed of the process every step of the way. Upon our return from a 1 week respite we were overwhelmed by the number of viewings our home received and the offers reflected how popular it was in today's market.
We were most pleased with the final offer. The successful buyer will prove to be the perfect fit for our home and neighbourhood that we have cherished for the last 7 years.
On to greener pastures! Thanks again, Jeff! Peter and Ginette Atkinson

If you are looking for an agent who thoroughly researches the market, stays on top of trends and pricing and will give you an honest and straight forward assessment of a home, then Jeff is the agent you want to work with. My husband is a “numbers guy” and Jeff’s style of home assessment was very appealing - we both appreciated being able to see what a home was actually worth and what we could realistically expect to pay in today’s crazy market. Buying a house these days is stressful and Jeff helped us to focus on the important things, and was able to pivot on a dime when need be. We felt prepared to deal with the “new” housing market and are thrilled with the home we purchased!
I also really appreciate how Jeff was a partner to us throughout the buying process, even after the deal was signed; Jeff helped me to arrange visits with contractors, gave me recommendations for lawyers and offered to assist me deal with the seemingly hundreds of tasks that go along with preparing to close on a home. As someone just moving to the area his help and advice were invaluable!
I can also say that working with Jeff has actually been pretty fun. He has a great sense of humour and we enjoyed hearing his take on many of the properties we looked at.

As first-time homebuyers, the idea of competing in the housing market was stressful and overwhelming at first. However, upon meeting Jeff, we were quickly amazed right from the start at his welcoming and professional approach. Although he never pushed us to make any decisions we weren’t comfortable with, he provided us with an immense amount of knowledgeable information about the market that helped us decide when and what to buy. We are extremely grateful to him and his team for going above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and ready to purchase our first home. We are pleased to have developed a trusting relationship with Jeff, and look forward to working with him and his team in the future.

We entrusted Jeff with the sale of our rental property knowing that he would understand the market situation and guide us in preparing the property to make the biggest impact in the market.

Over the last few years my wife and I have been reviewing properties within a very tight criteria. We visited a property and met with Jeff who we instantly had a connection and a sense of trust gained. Selling and buying can be a very emotional journey. Jeff was extremely knowledgeable on the process and market. When we found our next home, Jeff was there reactive with the guidance we needed to help win the property. When it came to selling our own home, we knew we were in the best of hands! The process and experience met our expectations and we would turn to Jeff in a heartbeat to guide us on our next real-estate journey. We look forward to working with Jeff again and would recommend him to our family and friends without hesitation! Thank you Jeff from the Searth Family.

Working with Jeff and Alicia has been an exceptional experience. Their professionalism was evident right from the start.
From the way they marketed the property, presenting a very professional video making our house really stand out from the crowd. To the way Jeff dealt with other agents, the logistics of back to back showings and finishing up with Jeff’s powerful negotiation skills.
We were confident to put our trust in Jeff’s plan to sell our home and we are very glad we did. He delivered 1000%, with over 65 showings in 6 days and a firm offer $150k over asking. The whole process was seamless and surpassed our expectations.
When it came to finding us our dream home Jeff and Alicia walked us through the process with patience and a methodical attention to detail.
The time and effort they put in behind the scenes made it possible for us to navigate this very competitive market and secure our dream home for a price we were comfortable with.
In addition they were very attuned to our needs and emotions and always helped us feel as calm and as at ease as possible.
I would recommend Jeff and Alicia as an exceptional team for anyone looking to either sell or buy a property.

Jeff was an integral part of our transition to retirement. For the past 2 years he has kept us up-to-date on the KW market, always responding to our inquiries and took us out several times to view potential properties.
When we finally contacted Jeff to move forward with moving to KW, we had a small window in which to find a property.
His exemplary market knowledge and keen negotiation skills landed us our dream retirement condo during this difficult time.

We were so fortunate to have selected Jeff as our Realtor, he helped us find the right house in the right neighborhood for the right price through his well rounded knowledge of the local market. Every time we viewed a new property Jeff would perform a methodical inspection, looking for signs of problems and commenting on the quality of construction, finish, appliances, insulation, etc. Jeff also led us through multiple rounds of negotiation to get to a price we were comfortable with. In the end we found the property that was perfect for us and are loving it so far. The best part about working with Jeff was that he was always more focused on answering our questions, giving us good and honest advice, and finding homes that met our needs than he was on closing a deal. His professionalism, knowledge, honesty, and hard work ethics are much respected and appreciated. We are impressed with Jeff's professionalism and his genuine interest in assuring we are satisfied with our final decision on our new place. We would recommend him to anyone. Thank you, Jeff!

As first-time home buyers we really didn't know where to begin. Especially because we didn't know any realtors with experience in the KW area. Therefore, we were so happy that we found Jeff. After our first meeting with him, we felt confident and knew right away we had found the right realtor. Having Jeff as our realtor really eased our minds. He knew that we needed to find a home within a short period of time and made us feel like priority. Although, he never pressured us to decide and allowed us to take our time when viewing properties. We were astounded by how much knowledge he brought to the table. This knowledge helped us make educated decisions and made us feel even more comfortable with our decision. Jeff also went above and beyond for us by finding us a place to rent since our closing date ended up being a couple months away. Purchasing a new home should be an exciting experience and Jeff made sure of it. He really helped us keep the positivity throughout the entire process, even though we were buying in a very competitive market. Ultimately, we are so happy to have met Jeff. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a great realtor.

We absolutely loved working with Jeff throughout out first-time home buying process. From the start, where we weren't even sure which neighbourhood or type of house we wanted, he helped us understand what would be best suited for us and our family. Since we weren't particularly set on an area, he went out of his way to ensure that we visited houses near and far until we found the perfect home. He helped us understand the true & fair market value of our purchase, which was important, given the market conditions we faced during Covid.
Not only did he help set up the times for us to view the many many houses, but when looking through the houses with us, he pointed out various features of the house that we may have missed, as if he was purchasing the home himself.
He was always very responsive to any questions, concerns, or random thoughts that crossed our mind (and there were a lot) and accommodated to our varying schedules to allow us to see any home that crossed our paths.
We strongly recommend Jeff for anyone looking for purchase a home. His balance between his knowledge of the market and his personality made the entire process very simple. We truly felt we could trust Jeff from the beginning with our search and he succeeded by finding us our dream home.

My husband and I have been putting off moving for well over a year because we were very afraid of what we had heard about the Kitchener real estate market and were worried that we would never find a home that we loved but that was also within our budget. Getting connected with Jeff was one of those happy accidents to be honest and I could never say enough about our experience working with him. My husband and I are those people that got together later in life and have both moved too many times to count. We have both worked with our fair share of real estate agents... not one in our past even comes close to the level of professionalism or knowledge that we experienced with Jeff. That aside, he is also a stellar human being that we feel so lucky to have come in contact with. What we learned from Jeff is that despite a crazy real estate market there is such a thing as fair market value. Since Jeff knows his stuff and I mean really knows his stuff, he was able to help us secure the home of our dreams at a price we never imagined. We wanted someone on the ball, efficient, honest, and who had our best interest in mind and at heart. We got all of that and more with Jeff. I have never seen someone prepare such an in depth price analysis of the home we wanted to buy that would justify our offer and in turn was the thing that hit a home run and got us OUR price. We are beyond excited about our new home and the new start ahead of us and both truly believe it would not have been possible with Jeff. He brings a passion to his role and it shows. He truly goes above and beyond for his clients and we are so thrilled at how he represented us. Thank you Jeff! Thank you so very much!

As first-time homebuyers, Jeff was the first real estate agent we've ever worked with, but I can honestly say I can't see us working with anyone else in the future—our experience was that good. Jeff is an incredibly professional, knowledgeable, personable, and tech-savvy agent who was beyond patient with us as we navigated our ways through the confusing waters of buying a home for the first time in a city we've never lived in (in the middle of a global pandemic, to boot). From our first meeting Jeff, we felt confident that he'd be honest and upfront with us about the pros and cons of different houses and neighbourhoods, and we were right. Jeff was always surprisingly quick to respond to our questions and requests (both big and small) and we appreciated how on the ball he is technology-wise—sending along personalized videos with every document that needed to be looked at so we could dig in when we had time. Long story short, Jeff is awesome. We ended up buying our "dream home" in a multiple offer scenario that we felt completely prepared for thanks to Jeff's education and advice. We couldn't recommend Jeff more.

Jeff was able to take the time and care to find us the right property. As investors we are picky and did not want settle for just anything. Jeff was able to look for a property that fit our need and provided solid facts and support to answer all questions. From start to finish Jeff has been reliable and available. He has gone well beyond the call of duty and continues to provide valuable information on a regular basis. We are more than happy with Jeff and look to continue working with him in the future.

Jeff was recommended to us from another couple and we were not disappointed. He kept us up to date with changes in the market and insurance rates, and helped us purchase a home within our timeline. Jeff was open to suggestions we had and met with us to view homes, even when it was short notice. Jeff was honest about the neighbourhoods we were looking in and kept a professional manner the entire time! We will definitely use Jeff in the future and recommend to others as well!

Enjoyed working with Jeff as first time homebuyers! Makes himself available anytime and is very responsive. As out-of-towners, we found it helpful to have an agent who could provide advice regarding neighbourhoods and make suggestions based on what we were looking for. He also worked to schedule viewings in blocks so we wouldn’t have to drive down as many times.
Thanks again Jeff! Looking forward to our new home!

Jeff is one of the best agents in the Waterloo region. He is young, promising, active, serious, efficient and professional. He always helps us with enthusiasm and focus, regardless of the issues that come up.
He always responds in a timely manner and takes customer satisfaction as his responsibility. We highly recommend Jeff and the ListingsKW Realty Group.

We came across Jeff by chance after viewing another house through the selling agent on his team. We appreciated his candid thoughts about the house and its worth, and once we signed him as our agent he respected our budget, conditions, and our wants while giving us realistic expectations of what to expect with each house. His "offer calculations" were accurate to what the houses sold for, and is what helped us win the house that we did. He has a great network of contractors and was able to offer insights on what certain upgrades would run us and provide vision to what the houses could be. He was an absolute pleasure to work with, and would happily endorse his services.

My husband and I have just complete the purchase of our home with Jeff Blackham. To say we are happy with Jeff’s service would be a gross understatement. Jeff is one of the few in the industry who are worthy of being called a professional. We purchased our home during Covid-19 and Jeff made the whole process ever so smooth. Far from the usual home-stage and market realtor, Jeff is analytical, strategic and has an uncanny sense of price, market and value. Our recommendations is for you to hire Jeff and use his team of experts for your mortgage, house inspection and staging needs...they're AMAZING! You’ll be glad you did.

Jeff was an outstanding agent! He is a hard worker, and was very patient with us as we navigated the buying and selling process. We couldn’t be happier with his service. He listened and responded as he helped our family find the best home for us, as well as selling ours easily and stress-free!

My fiance and I are so happy with our experience working with Jeff. He treated us as if we'd been lifelong clients and made us feel like his #1 priority. We didn't expect this of someone we'd only just met and were so appreciative. In a mere four-day period he helped us purchase our new home.
Jeff can speak expertly on a number of different topics with regards to the home-buying process (analytical by nature and a former contractor). My fiance and I base our decisions first and foremost on the numbers and Jeff, an avid statistician, came prepared with spreadsheets comparing list price to his determination of fair market value calculated using his proprietary formula. This gave us transparency into the transaction we felt we needed in order to make such a significant financial decision.
We are pleased with the price we got for the listing and ecstatic that we found our new home. We will definitely work with Jeff in the future.

As a nervous first-time home buyer, Jeff was able to answer all my questions and provided sage advice. He had a wide range of helpful information and was always available. I lucked out when he was highly recommended to me.

My wife and I first worked with Jeff a few years ago in the sale of our home and with the purchase of another. Our experience through that transaction was superb, so when we decided to relocate again, we didn't even consider contacting any other agent. My wife and I have worked with numerous agents over the years and Jeff is by far the best agent we have worked with. He has an excellent knowledge of his craft and a great understanding of our community. He is always professional and a great strategist. Jeff is always looking for a new angle and there is never any doubt that he has gone above and beyond in doing what he can to service his clients. I would consider my wife and I "high-needs" clients and Jeff has never balked at a request and was always prompt in his response. We would highly recommend Jeff to friends and family.
Sincerely,
Garth and Elizabeth Cressman

We came to Jeff with a big plan and a quick turn around and within a day we had it all sorted and on track! He's been great to work with and has given us the confidence to make some big moves in real estate. Any time we had questions or concerns he was able to quickly reassure us and help us sort it out. We're thankful to have him work with us in the midst of this Covid-19 pandemic and his resources and know-how were indispensable. We couldn't be happier!

We started our process in early May of 2019, and after viewing countless homes, Jeff helped us purchase our dream home!!! I would classify Jeff as a "salesperson." And I can't begin to tell you how important that is when you are choosing a realtor… He took off his sales hat when we were viewing our potential homes, and he was able to explain the pros and cons of each home. You can only ask a realtor so many times, "What do you think this house will sell for?" but Jeff always made us feel at ease when we were putting in offers to homes. I feel like the real work starts for a realtor when you purchase and sell your home. Jeffs's knowledge of the real estate process and negotiating abilities were crucial for getting into our new house without delay and additional costs out of our pockets. I would highly recommend Jeff to anyone looking to purchase or sell there home in the KW area. If you are looking for someone extraordinarily knowledgeable and responsive, look no further and choose Jeff Blackham.

As first time home sellers we did not know how to get started. Jeff helped us every step of the way from picking a time to sell, staging, and creating interest in our home. In the end, we were able to sell our home above asking price without even needing to go on the market thanks to his extensive list of contacts. During this whole process Jeff helped us find our next home. He found the perfect home at the right price. Jeff is a great agent. What makes him stand out from the rest is his remarkable attention to detail. He also has great connections in the community which helps make the whole process run so smoothly.

Without a doubt, Jeff is a real pro and he will not let you down. As a house owner, you will definitely put 100% focus on your house, but Jeff as your agent, he will put 200% effort to assist you to meet and go beyond your goal, either sell or buy a new home. Jeff has helped us to sell 2 houses and purchase a new house. With his knowledge, his manner, his sense of humour, we really enjoyed working with Jeff and his team. Jeff is very professional, considerate and efficient. He is always listen to our request and makes great suggestions. My wife and I are really glad and lucky to find Jeff. We would not hesitate to recommend Jeff and like to work with him again and again.

Jeff helped us sell the home we raised our children in, purchase a new "right sized" condo townhouse, and another rental townhouse, all in the span of 3 months. We are experienced in real estate transactions, but Jeff, by far, has been the most effective Agent we have worked with. Jeff has excellent knowledge of the KW market, is efficient, always responsive in a timely manner, and an impressive negotiator. In this competitive market, we took some risks including purchasing our condo before listing the family home. With Jeff's help, we were connected to tradesman and a staging service to get our house to list. We received the offer we wanted and sold within a week of listing. Jeff also got us the price and terms we wanted for the two properties we purchased, both in multi-offer scenarios. It was a complex set of transactions and I was completely confident with Jeff guiding us through the process. We would not hesitate to recommend Jeff and use him again for future deals.

Jeff Blackham...is a realtor that definitely has his finger on the pulse of the market. We have been contemplating selling our home but hadnt made any definite plans. We invited Jeff to present his plan to sell and by the end of it were convinced that it was right for us. He suggested, if possible, to vacate the house the initial week. He anticipated much interest in our home and he was correct. From arranging staging, anticipating sale activity, maintaining our home while we were away....all went smoothly and contributed to offers being received in 7 days. Twelve offers and selling 16% over our asking price!Do yourself a favour if you are considering a real estate sale or purchase, call Jeff.

We were fortunate to have Jeff list and sell our apartment. I believe because of the knowledge, passion and drive he has for real estate is the reason we got more than we ever expected for our property..

Being that my husband and I were relatively new to the real estate market, we found ourselves in very capable, patient and knowledgeable hands with, Jeff.
He did everything he said he would and more. He worked very hard, was very thorough and creative in getting us far beyond what we expected for our property. We continue to deal with, Jeff, and look forward to further transactions with him as our representative.

Jeff was an astounding realtor. As a first-time home buyer, it was very nerve-wracking to make decisions and we took our time. However, Jeff was very patient with us while pushing us just the right amount without being too pushy. He took time to explain everything in lots of detail, so we understood as well as make sure that we were comfortable. Jeff is very knowledgeable and has incredible knowledge of the market as well as a great eye for issues in a home. Jeff always made us feel like a priority and was very flexible with our busy schedules. While putting together offers, Jeff always brought his knowledge to the table and made it a seamless process. We would defiantly use Jeff again in the future!

We are first time home buyers. We are lucky to work with Jeff Blackham from the KW Realty Group. He had a great knowledge of the surrounding area and knew exactly what we are looking for. I was nervous about buying a home for the first time and all the expenses, but Jeff made it a great experience for us and we are happy and proud new homeowners. He is very professional, responsive and pro-active on communicating with us. We are highly recommend Jeff Blackham. Big Thank you to him.

When my husband and I decided to sell our home we chose Jeff because of his great reviews. We met with Jeff and he was very professional and prepared with extensive knowledge of the neighbourhood, and market trends. He provided excellent advise in order for us to present our home to its best advantage. Not being very handy with tools, Jeff changed out all of our door handles for us. This was just one of many examples of Jeff "going above and beyond" for us. In the end, Jeff's extensive knowledge of the market, allowed us to sell our home for well over the asking price. Thank you Jeff, I highly recommend you to anyone who wants to sell their home quickly, stress free, and for the best possible price.

Moving to Canada, we were unfamiliar with the marketplace, and Jeff helped us throughout the searching process online, and then when we flew over to filter through and finally make our purchase. He was considerate, knowledgable, and professional, and always made time for our queries. We would be happy to recommend him to anyone looking for a home in the Kitchener/Waterloo area.

Jeff has been an amazing Realtor from the very start! We’ve loved the time he took to walk us through the education cycle of what the market is like and what to expect through various stages of buying a house. I remember when we met the first time in an open-house, we were a bit bummed and overwhelmed about the whole “buying a house” thing, but Jeff got talking with us and we immediately hit-it-off. Later he was patient with us, educated us, and was very transparent on what his goals were as we moved forward to finding the place we were looking for. He helped us navigate the pricing rigours as well as helped us find the cusp of "what we wanted" to "what we could afford" (and not become house poor). Jeff has been a great Realtor and has become a great friend. Even with our ideas for reno's he was able to point us in meaningful directions to various contractors he knew and online resources. We loved working with him and would do so again in a heart-beat. Seriously we lucked-out bumping into him!

Jeff Blackham is a professional, knowledgeable and hard-working sales representative. He is committed to support his clients in making their real estate transaction become a successful adventure. I was well informed throughout the process and questions were handled accurately and in a timely manner. Jeff provided “peace of mind” during what could have been a very stressful time. Jeff goes the extra mile and was accessible throughout the process. I selected Jeff to sell my home. He provided a very detailed and complete market analysis. The state of the art technologies e.g. professional photographer improved “market appeal”. He can help you identify contractors, lawyers and staging supports if needed. I had several offers and received more than the asking price all in less than a week. I can’t ask for anything more!

As our agent, Jeff proved to be an amazing resource. Besides being an impressive source of helpful information regarding the home buying process, he made us feel like his priority while patiently leading us through our learning curve of the current real estate market. He was always available when we needed him and he anticipated our needs even before we knew what those needs would be. We are very satisfied with having Jeff as our realtor when purchasing our first home, and we now consider him a friend.

From the very beginning of the process to the very end, Jeff was everything you could want in a realtor. Even before we were ready to start the process, Jeff was patient with our questions, and was always around when we needed him. Being new to the process as first time sellers, he helped us find contractors, staging services, lawyers, and even helped us find a realtor in Alberta where we moved. He always went out of his way and made us feel like his only clients. He even went so far as to help us find a contractor at the last minute when we ran into an issue. With Jeff as our realtor, not only did he do a killer job selling our house, but we also gained a friend. We would recommend him to everyone.

Jeff has been an excellent real estate agent; from the beginning of our journey as prospective buyers, to our first month of being homeowners, Jeff has demonstrated patience, market knowledge and proficient negotiating skills. While Jeff has many redeeming qualities that make him a well rounded agent, his authenticity makes him unique. My partner and I never felt pressured to make a decision, and above all, we felt validated and supported by Jeff in every step along the way. In the end, not only did we find our dream home, but with Jeff's keen negotiating skills, we purchased for well under the asking price. With enough left in our bank accounts for renovations, Jeff paused his personal home project to allow the contractor of his recommendation to work immediately on our new home; this gesture truly speaks to Jeff's character and is a reflection of the outstanding service we received.

As a business professional with extremely limited time, I must say that Jeff Blackham was able to alleviate ALL of my concerns related to the purchase of my new home and took care of everything. He was on top of every listing that fell under my very strict search criteria and not only found me my new home, but did it within 30 minutes of being posted. He has made this experience flawless and easy and did it with ease and professionalism. I highly recommend Jeff to anyone who is seeking a realtor as he has exceeded my expectations in every way. Thanks again Jeff for the commitment to me and my experience throughout this journey!

Anyone who has been there knows how exciting yet stressful buying your first home can be. But from day one,
Jeff' Blackham's confidence and professionalism instantly eased my mind, because I knew I was working with someone who was extremely passionate about finding me my new home.
Jeff Blackham is all about education, and as a first time homebuyer I had a lot to learn, and I am very appreciative at how detailed and knowledgeable he was. He truly takes you by the hand and patiently guides you from beginning to end, through the complicated process of buying a house. He is exceedingly thorough and thoughtful, and his personality and sense of humor made working with him a pleasure. Jeff Blackham takes great pride and fulfillment in helping you find your new home and I happily recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. I now have a place I love to call home.

Jeff Blackham is the kind of realtor that everyone needs when buying or selling a house.He helped me sell my 7th home and was by far the best. He knows exactly what to do in any given situation. Ten days before the closing date a large brown spot was located in the ceiling of the livingroom.He just told me not to worry and he would deal with the problem. We closed on time.Jeff is very conscientious, puts his clients' minds at ease and goes that extra mile to help.He even drove me around the city helping me to find an apartment.
Jeff Blackham is an excellent negotiator so was able to obtain the price that I wanted. He is cognizant of all the legalities in buying or selling property.My lawyer told me how lucky I was to be working with Jeff as he knows what he is doing. Quite an endorsement!

Jeff Blackham is professional, knowledgeable, personable and works exceedingly hard for his clients.
As first time home buyers, we didn’t know what to expect. Jeff Blackham made it so easy. He went above and beyond in educating us on the real estate industry, and helped us find our dream home. We couldn't be more thrilled with the process. He was able to use different algorithms to estimate what a fair price would be for both us and the sellers.
We can’t thank him enough for all the time and energy he put into helping us.
He is truly the best realtor in the region!!

I first met Jeff at an open house, and his enthusiasm, professionalism, and attentiveness really stood out. It made my decision easy when choosing him to help us find our family home in Waterloo.
I'm so glad I made that choice.
Jeff was knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and always willing to lend a hand. He went above and beyond multiple times to ensure our family felt comfortable and well taken care of. I was particularly impressed with his negotiation skills. He even personally handled an issue, completely out of his own pocket, when the sellers left the home in less-than-ideal condition.
Jeff truly knows his stuff, is straightforward, advocates fiercely for his clients, and consistently follows through on his promises. What more could you ask for?
