"I have known Jim Wire for the past six months. I live in DE and had a second home in Tahoe that had mold, needed repairs and I wanted to sell it. Jim Wire came highly recommended from a friend in the area. Initially Jim had to deal with my tenants and their departure. He also suggested that I contact a second mold remediation company that ended up saving me $10 K. He knew all the hoops that I needed to jump through for the state of CA and El Dorado County to get my home on the market and be competitive with other listings. Here are just some of the adjectives that come to mind when talking about Jim Wire. ( Integrity, trustworthy, knowledgeable, level headed, patient, hard working, diligent, and kind to name just a few ) It has been pure joy working with Jim. Teaming up with Jim has been the Best Day Ever! Ron D from DE"
"We had a contentious family transaction, but Jim's calm, cool, professional demeanor made it possible to avoid those potential pitfalls and make it a smooth transaction. He's so organized with the voluminous paperwork of a CA transaction that it makes it very manageable, and sent out a timeline of important dates at the beginning so that we knew exactly what we needed to get done by certain critical dates. It was an older house with plenty of issues, and all of Jim's referrals were great, so that was a big plus since we don't live in the area anymore. Highly recommend Jim Wire!"
"Jim was great to work with. He helped us successfully close on a complex 1031 exchange within our time and budget constraints. Since he is licensed in both California and Nevada he was very knowledgeable with helping us narrow down the right location to fit our needs. Jim is very patient and detail oriented. He walked us through every part of the process and explained all the details of the complicated contracts that we signed, answering any small question that we threw at him. I would definitely recommend Jim!"
"Jim Wire has been our realtor since the beginning of our vacation home journey. He was the one who helped us find exactly what we were looking for. He's patient, knowledgeable, and diligent. Now full circle, he has been amazing in helping us sell our vacation home. He helped prep and ensure everything was ready even though we could not physically be there. Highly recommend him and will be using him again for our next purchase."
"Jim is a very thoughtful, responsible and respectful professional with the highest integrity. I was fortunate to have Jim represent me in the real estate transaction. He is knowledgeable in current sales trends as well as macro economic and geopolitical impacts on market conditions. His attention to details resulted in a smooth and issue free transaction. On a personal level through numerous phone interaction, Jim came across as warm, friendly, easy going and grounded, and very much wanting to provide support, guidance and help whenever needed. It has been a most pleasant experience working with Jim. Thank You."
"We were very lucky to work with Jim Wire throughout our home purchasing journey. We knew from the minute we met him at an open house, that we'd want to work with him. Jim helped us through the entire process from placing an offer to close of escrow, explaining everything to us in detail and never tired from our many questions. Jim's guidance and breadth of contacts for various inspections and services made it easy to determine what we wanted and needed. We never thought buying our first home could be that easy and stress free - this was in no doubt thanks to Jims extensive knowledge and calm and friendly guidance through the entire process. Thank you Jim!"
"My agent was Jim Wire. He was absolutely wonderful to work with, very knowledgeable and professional in every way. He really made navigating the process very easy and stress free! I would definitely work with Mr. Wire again!"
"Working with Jim was great! He was always nice to meet with and timely, very responsive to phone calls/emails/texts and showing up early to house showings to make sure everything was ready for us. Being from out of town, there were some instances where we needed to do virtual tours, which was very helpful for us! Since this was our first home and in a new place, it was valuable to hear his perspective on the condition of houses, pros and cons of certain neighborhoods, etc. I appreciated him opening his network of trusted contacts to us, all of which he had worked with previously either personally or through clients. He is also knowledgable about local rules and regulations that pertain to the South Lake Tahoe area. I would definitely recommend working with him!"
"Jim was great to work with! He is really kind and a pleasure to meet with each time. He was a great guide to advise on the area and any regulations. He was very patient with us through the process, as first time buyers, and he offers his pool of contacts for rehabs, lawyers, etc.. very happy to have had his guidance!"
"We were very lucky to meet Jim Wire last year when we began, in earnest, to look for a home. Right away, we felt comfortable with his approach and knowledge of South Lake Tahoe and Zephyr Cove. Jim is extremely competent and very familiar with these areas. We relied on Jim and his impressive breadth of contacts for inspections and other services through close of escrow. It was obvious to us that Jim’s priority was to help us feel comfortable in our decision-making and he was a critical factor at all stages of the buying process. We truly appreciated his exceptional service!"
"Jim helped in so many ways getting our purchase finalized. He provided names of inspectors, roofers, plumbers, insurance agents, professional consultants, even attorneys and accountants to help us know everything we needed to know about the property we were purchasing and any future costs to repair. Jim was always there at every step, being available, answering calls and texts and providing expert guidance in every area. This was a difficult transaction and I relied on Jim’s help in every step of the process Thank you Jim"
"Jim was personable, prompt, and helpful. He was available by phone, text, email, or in person with every question through the entire process of purchasing our fixer-upper Tahoe cabin! Couldn't recommend Jim Wire enough! He was awesome."
"Jim went above and beyond during the sale of my home, which faced some unexpected challenges like the heaviest snowfall in 50 years. As a secondary/vacation home, I was not on site to address immediate issues and Jim stepped in to help even though it wasn't really his responsibility. It took an immense amount of the pressure that comes with selling a home off my shoulders. He communicated regularly the status of the home, market, and offers. His advise was invaluable in making adjustments that eventually led to the sale of the home to the satisfaction of all parties involved."
