I can say without question that the folks at Jackson Real Estate Associates were the most professional, ethical, diligent and knowledgeable brokers of any I have ever encountered in my business life. No one knows the area and the real estate market in the Jackson area better than this group. I would not hesitate to recommend them highly to anyone seeking to buy or sell property in Jackson Hole.

In our opinion, Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates is the leading real estate brokerage firm in Jackson Hole. We have worked with the company over the past several years and have had a positive experience. The agents at Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates have excellent insight into the Jackson Hole real estate market. This knowledge, combined with the company’s extensive resources of data and analytic tools, fosters a unique and thorough understanding of a dynamic and complex market. We found this blend of objective data and subjective interpretation to be an important advantage when buying and selling our properties.
In addition to Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates’s strong understanding of the market, the agents are outstanding. They understood our objectives and kept them in mind throughout our relationship. The agents always put our goals first, never pressuring us to take any type of premature action. Our discussions on issues/strategies were always thoughtful, balanced and never self-serving.
Over the years, we have learned that many real estate agents simply “coordinate” the transaction and are not able to offer sound advice backed by experience and data. Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates is not like other companies and provides value added services. We could not be more pleased with the service and support we have received from Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates.

I retained Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates to represent me in the search and acquisition of two homes in Jackson Hole; the first in 1997 and a replacement property in 2004. With a background of 30 years in commercial real estate myself, I recognized and appreciated the true professionalism to Jackson Hole Real Estate and Appraisal are committed.
In particular, they demonstrate:
   1. Market Knowledge -They are a local company with an unparalleled knowledge of all aspects of Jackson Hole and its various real estate markets.
   2. Patience - In both of my transactions, I looked at a wide variety of properties over a 1-2 year period before making an acquisition. I never felt pressured to act prematurely.
   3. Integrity -For every property I was shown, I was informed of not just the positive aspects, but also of any and all negatives and/or risks.
   4. Negotiation Skills -I always felt well counseled on negotiating strategy and, in both cases, felt that, together, we achieved the most favorable transaction attainable.
The people at Jackson Hole Real Estate and Appraisal are clearly committed to the highest standards of real estate professionalism.

When we decided to sell our vacation home in Jackson Hole, we searched for a real estate company that had deep roots and a thorough understanding of the unique nuances of the Jackson Hole real estate market. We were concerned about our home becoming lost as just another listing of one of the large mega real estate companies. We selected Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates because of their depth of experience and the sharp, intelligent way that they analyze and market the strengths of each home to the continually changing Jackson Hole real estate market. David Viehman and his team worked closely with us on the marketing and sale of our home and continually kept us apprised of all showings and interest. We greatly appreciate the focused, individual approach that JHREA gives to each property.

Our Thanks to you and your organization for your loyalty, your knowledge and your suggestions as to our proper pricing and preparation of the property for listing and for sale with your company.
Your personal attention was a very special bonus as you received the bid, negotiated the bid and efficiently completed the sale.
Thank you for your lesson of clarity,

Having been an out of town homeowner and condo owner for over 25 years I have come to know and understand Jackson and Teton Village quite well. When faced with the need to sell my home under a time schedule, I decided to give you an exclusive listing primarily because all of the attention you gave to my properties. Your yearly appraisals were more impressive than the many letters I get each year from brokers who are trying to get listings.
My instincts certainly paid off. I have bought and sold many properties over the years, and have represented many friends in their sales and closings. I was particularly impressed at your constant, and yet appropriate, communications throughout the process. Your attention to all details and ability to answer important questions made the sale of my home about as easy as I could have imagined. Here in the East, nearly all of the work you did would have been done by the seller's attorney. Having acted as a sellers attorney on numerous occasions, I am most grateful for all of the calls you made and your close attention to every detail. Most of all I appreciate your overall knowledge of how to make a deal happen, and your ability to do so which is so important to an out of town seller.
Sincerely yours,

We have worked with several very highly regarded Realtors when buying property back in Illinois, but you are by far the best! Thank you for helping us find exactly what we were looking for. Your knowledge, experience, and professionalism were the keys to making the whole process quite enjoyable. It was especially nice to work with people that we liked and trusted. The two of you and Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates will always have our highest recommendation.

We just wanted to drop a note to express how pleased we are with Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates...Our agent began sending listings via email over a year ago... We were impressed that she only showed us properties that met our criteria and gave us good advice on those properties...We are very pleased with our purchase and look forward to working with Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates in the future.

Jackson Hole Real Estate and Appraisal is a wonderful company to work with. After visiting Jackson Hole on vacations for more than 20 years, my wife and I decided to purchase a house in the Jackson area in anticipation of retirement. Our agent kept us informed, through the internet, of available houses as they came on the market. He took the time to thoroughly understand our needs and always provided us with honest and extremely useful opinions with no pressure whatsoever.
During a summer vacation, he spent an entire week with us checking out over 80 houses to narrow the list down to five, from which we chose one which fits us perfectly! During this time, the folks at JHREA became more than our agents, they are our friends. We are currently in the process of moving permanently to Jackson Hole.
In summary, we could not be more pleased with our experience and strongly recommend that anyone interested in real estate in Jackson Hole or the surrounding area should first contact Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates.

While it was hard at first for us to know exactly what we wanted in Jackson, you were very helpful and patient, showing us several properties with long and short term rental potential, in several areas of town.
By looking at those areas in a particular cost spread, it really helped us to decide what we wanted and would work for us. You were very knowledgeable about the Jackson area and also clearly knew the properties and the steps we needed to follow when we did make an offer and sign a contract. Your attention to detail and making a to-do list for us has been so helpful, as we needed to turn our attention to selling a property near home. You have consistently reminded us of our upcoming deadlines and have been the on-site person for the inspection and other jobs needed at the property.
In our opinion, YOU ARE THE BEST!!

The Jackson area, whose residents include actor Harrison Ford, Vice President Dick Cheney and World Bank President Jim Wolfensohn, saw a cooling in its high-end real-estate market when the 1990s faded, according to David E. Viehman, of Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates. But overall home sales rose 21% in the first six months of 2004 from a year earlier, the firm says, while deals involving properties costing more than $1 million rose 45%.

Quoted in the October 1, 2004 Wall Street Journal discussing the $100+ million purchase of the Hansen Ranch by Ross Perot Junior.

Our agent proved to be one of the best Realtors we have dealt with through many years of transfers and home purchases. From the onset she realized our situation would require some creative thinking. She explored many options on our behalf, bringing to our attention several possibilities that would otherwise have been overlooked, and her efforts resulted in two sales and satisfied clients....thoroughly organized...asked the right questions...actually listened...stayed in contact...anticipated questions... on time, ready to go, information in hand. Her professionalism and thoroughness were impressive, and we were very please with her abilities throughout the transactions. Congratulations for a job well done.

We had many realtors recommended to us and we met with several. Your effort and research was clearly above the rest and was the basis for selecting you as our realtor....Looking at all those houses with a two year old is trying and you helped to make the process less stressful.

You inspired confidence in me from our first meeting and never failed to honor every word you promised me. I appreciated your diligence in the midst of having to make repairs, etc. to the house whether it was the crawl space or the radon mitigation.
You have a wonderful, reasonable demeanor and are a calming force when disappointments would be forthcoming and believe me there were quite a few. You never failed to help me understand the issues involved. I saw the efforts you consistently made to market the property and believed from the outset you could handle the internet in a most efficient and productive way. I was not disappointed. I have interfaced with many agents and companies in my course of selling properties, both in Jackson and in California, and it is reassuring to know there remain men of industry, honor, and integrity who take pride in a job well done! You and your company will certainly be acknowledged when I think of direction for any friends or contacts I may have.
Warm regards,

Thankfully, during this very difficult deal, I had the excellent fortune to work with two of your associates, both of whom went way beyond the call of duty in their tireless efforts to complete the sale of my property....Never once did I receive anything but the finest and most empathetic assistance. Please extend my grateful compliments to both of these women. Congratulations to you on your superlative staff.

JHREA has given us outstanding service both as buyers and sellers. Professional, friendly, fast, and courteous are the most accurate words we can use to describe all of our experiences with JHREA.
Michael and Diann Redzich

JHREA took on the marketing of a piece of land that we had been trying to sell for some time, and frankly had given up on. Our previous experience had been that no one wished to tackle the issues, and miscommunications that had caused our property to be labeled as plagued with problems. Despite its small size relative the other land sales both in acreage and value in the Jackson area, we were treated the same as if we were selling a 2,000 acre ranch. JHREA tenaciously approached the issues, carefully navigated the various personalities involved, and ultimately achieved a superior result for both us the seller, as well as the buyer. They also put to rest a long standing series of miscommunications in a neighborhood. I think everyone was appreciative of their efforts. We wholeheartedly recommend JHREA based on their great knowledge of the area, as well as his high level of honesty and professionalism.

My experience with Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates, LLC was quite professional and the transaction was completed sooner than expected. After appraising the opportunity, the business process proceeded very efficiently with JHRE&A’s management of the entire transaction. I look forward to doing additional business with Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates, LLC in the near future.

I wish to thank you for the outstanding service you provided me throughout the 18 month period that I was searching for a second home in Jackson. You educated me well on the local market, and truly worked for me as a buyers’ agent. Your knowledge of the local market and of individual properties was invaluable, as you were quickly able to narrow down the search to properties that would suit and not waste time on unsuitable properties. You were generous with your time and advice, and never put any pressure on me to buy. In fact there were several times that you gave me good advice that protected me from an unwise purchase decision, and created more work for yourself. Once I had found a suitable property you helped me negotiate an excellent contract that was on favorable terms, despite it being a sellers market. There were special conditions included in the contract that protected my interests, that would not have been there had I dealt directly with the sellers agent. Once we had a contract in place, you exceeded all expectations in looking after my interests, right up to the time of closing. Your honesty, integrity and outstanding service are the reasons that I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone wanting to buy or sell a property in the Jackson area.

The first time we met a JHREA agent was after a vacation in Jackson Hole. We were headed home when we decided to stop in a real estate office in Alpine. Knowing we could be a waste of her time, since we were just passing through on our wayhome, the agent still took the time to be helpful and kind. This led me to continue wanting her to help me. We emailed each other several times, her sending me listings of what she had and I explaining further what I was looking for. The end result was that we now are happy land owners in Wyoming and would contact JHREA when we have further interests.

I chose JHREA as my real estate company because their agents are not in the business for the quick fix. My agent was committed to finding the right value for each and every client.

We worked with Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates for several years enroute to finding the right property for us in Jackson. We found JHREA to be unfailingly ethical, honest, professional and focused on helping us locate the property that met our needs. JHREA has an excellent knowledge of the Jackson market and brings a good understanding of pricing and value in Jackson Hole. We appreciated their ability to distinguish our needs versus our wants and then to identify those homes which matched our criterion. In addition, their follow up and follow through are both excellent and his attention to detail in writing a contract is extremely valuable. JHREA is a professional real estate company that definitely represented our (not their) interests throughout the search and finally the transaction.

Dear David,
Thank you, Sylvia and the team at your firm for shepherding the sales of my two Pacific Creek lots to closure. It took a while! Nonetheless, you told me from the outset that as unique as Pacific Creek is, the majority of homeseekers who come to the valley are from urban areas, and they are a bit undone by the glorious wilderness.
You always said that it would take just the right buyer and that buyer would arrive at the most unexpected time. Patience is both of our virtues, and we did wait. It all paid off in the end. You are professional to a “T”, courteous and you have given me sage advice regarding timing, value versus price and marketing.
Thank you again for your friendship, your loyality and for your achievements on my behalf. I will always direct those friends of mine who are searching for a home in the valley to your door.
Fondly,
Anne Werner
