Jack Duggan - NK Team Compass Real Estate

Jack was extremely helpful in helping me navigate through buying a house from out of state in a very hot sellers' market. With my daughter Sarah and son in law Christian's help, we finally got a great property which Jack helped us get connected to all the right support people-title, insurance, etc. I live in Cincinnati, OH, sort of knew the area, did not personally physically see the house, bid on this house (3rd time is the charm!) the day it went on the market, and closed on the house literally a week later while I was at a meeting in Hawaii.

Jack is great! The most responsive and motivated to open a door. He's also conscious of your needs and is able to navigate the more personal aspects of purchasing a home.

Working with Jack was truly a delight. He went above and beyond to ensure that not only we got the home of our dreams, but that we knew exactly where to come in and how to work with the extremely chaotic real estate market in Seattle. If you're looking for an agent who will treat you like family, lead you in the right direction, and fight for you, Jack is your guy.

Jack and his team were rockstars! We really enjoyed working with Jack in getting our new home. He was on top of every aspect of the house-buying process, and was a great support for us as first time home-buyers. Would 10/10 recommend Jack! Thanks, Jack!

Buying a home is easily one the biggest decisions you will make in your life, and given the craziness of the Seattle housing market, it may well be one of the biggest challenges you face as well. If you're serious about jumping in and achieving a successful result, you shouldn't just look to enlist a real estate agent, you should find someone who will be your partner in this wild process. You need someone you can trust, someone who has the expertise, and someone who will help you navigate the ups and downs to come out on top. You will find that partner in Jack. This was my first home buying experience. Given the state of the market, I hope to not have to take a second trip around for a good long while. Thanks to Jack, we locked down the perfect home and I won't have to. Our journey lasted around 4 months and we saw dozens upon dozens of prospective houses. Jack provided wise counsel throughout. He helped us sort through Seattle's messy housing inventory, working to both identify houses that could be homes, and assets that were good investments for our money. He always took our personal desires into account, while providing impartial guidance where necessary. These are all nice words, of course, but here's where the rubber hits the road. We lost the first house we put an offer on, but that was only because Jack helped us understand when to walk away from an out of control bidding war. In our post-mortem, Jack told us that if and when his clients lose their first offer, they often end up finding an even better home for their needs shortly thereafter. He was right. We found the right house and Jack locked it in. We won the second offer we put in, which seems incredibly low by Seattle standards. We beat out 17 other offers and won despite having an escalation clause $50k lower than the other top buyer because Jack knew the tricks to putting together a solid offer and maintaining momentum even through a second round of bids. We could not be happier with the home we bought. While the Seattle market is far from ideal as a buyer, I think we navigated as best as we possibly could and that is due entirely to Jack. Full disclosure here: Jack is my cousin, but I have no doubt that he will treat you like family too.
