Jim Leslie – Coldwell Banker

We had been looking at homes in the Morgan Hill/​Gilroy area for a couple of months before Jim found us. The home we looked at was not what we wanted, but Jim was an excellent listener, proactive and had great follow-​through and was extremely flexible about getting us in to view homes as soon as they hit the market.
We were very interested in a property that needed a lot of work — Jim quickly got us the disclosure, followed up with the well company and the seller’s agents, and was great in giving us his honest opinion on whether to proceed or not. In the end we found another property and Jim walked us through the disclosure details, recommended an independent roof and pool inspection, and his great relationship with the seller’s agent helped us close at a good price in a short amount of time. When our pre-​approved Amerisave loan turned out to be a ‘bait and switch’, Jim put us in touch with a local loan agent and we had a pre-​approval letter within 24 hours. His professionalism, fantastic network, follow-​through, clear communication and calm demeanor really helped make this a low-​stress experience. We will definitely be using Jim to sell our home in West San Jose next year!

I worked with Jim more than a year ago on a transaction where I represented hard to please sellers and Jim represented the Buyer. At one point the transaction actually fell thru for about two weeks. Jim continued to probe to find a way to get the deal done. He finally did. This was a transaction where some parties caused a lot of stress but during the entire time Jim was professional, polite and kept focusing on what needed to be done to complete the transaction.
Because he is so professional, knowledgeable, and adroit with his presentations the transaction did close and closed comfortably. If I could give 10 stars to Jim Leslie; I would.
