In late 2011, my husband and I completed the purchase of a 14 unit apartment complex in Sacramento, California. Our representative broker for this investment was Brian Jacks, who has many years of experience dealing in commercial real estate. Prior to this transaction, my husband and I had purchased free standing homes however, had not ventured into commercial sized properties. This is where Brian’s expertise became invaluable. Brian spent a great deal of time researching the market to ascertain the true value of this property. For example, Brian was able to provide us with detailed cost comparisons between fully occupied and completely/partially vacant properties, which were also for sale on the market. This helped us to understand the true cost per square foot, cost to maintain each unit and surrounding gardens. Brian also knew what vacancy rate we should expect for the area, which assisted us in managing our anticipated income/expenses ratio. At our request, Brian remained heavily involved throughout the entire purchase process, including personally attending inspections for termites, roof, building and parking lot condition. Brian’s extensive knowledge in commercial real estate gave us the confidence to understand the process of making such a large investment and what to be aware of. Another huge benefit for us was Brian’s drive and determination to see the deal get over the line (at the right price, of course). The purchase of our apartment complex was completed within just three weeks of Brian making us aware of the opportunity! Moving quickly helped ensure that we would be the successful buyer of this great investment. With his professional attitude, approachability and attention to detail, Brian far exceeded our expectations. We have dealt with several different brokers over the years and there is just no comparison to the quality of Brian’s work. Brian kept us fully informed at every step along the way, which helped reduce our stress during a very extensive due diligence process. I would highly recommend anyone looking to purchase real estate engage Brian as their broker. I know we will use Brian for our next real estate transaction. S. Latts

Two business partners and I were looking for an investment property in Sacramento. We were on a budget, but still wanted to find a property with positive cash flow. Brian Jacks quickly paired down the list to properties that met our needs. We found a 13 unit complex in the low 400s and, with Brians help, we were the winning bid at 15k under the asking price (though it didnt hurt that it was an all cash bid). That was the easy part. The hard part was getting used to our first commercial venture and dealing with a temperamental seller. Brian was on the phone with one of us almost every day for a month, and we must have exchanged 20 or so email a day about anything from clarifications, to termite inspections, to seller negotiations. The seller threatened to pull out from the deal, but as a result of Brians advice and tack with the sellers agent we were able to negotiate as many repairs on the As-Is purchase as we could without jeopardizing the deal. From a financial standpoint this is exactly what we were looking for in an agent. I would certainly do business with Brian Jacks again in the future.

Its easy to write a great review for someone that did a great job! Brian is an extremely pleasant and professional individual. He did his homework the very first time we met and showed me other similar properties and what they sold for. We had a conversation about price and strategy and I put my commercial property on Fulton Avenue in his hands. The sign went up and he did his marketing and, within a few weeks we got two offers in one day. The second offer was reasonable and, within a very short time, we accepted the offer and the escrow closed. This is the 7th or 8th building that Ive bought or sold in the last 40 years and it was the easiest one by far. I appreciate Brians expertise and highly recommend him for Real Estate adventures! : )

So glad I found Brian to help me purchase the 18,000 square foot grocery store where I had been leasing for 27 years. This was the first Raleys in Sacramento on El Camino Ave. The adjacent thrift store operator owned the entire 40,000 square foot property and finally decided to sell. I was worried I might miss the chance and some investor would take over, but I couldnt let that happen. I called Brian on Thanksgiving Day and couldnt believe he answered the phone. We met the next day to establish a strategy and the rest is history. Now, in a role reversal, I own my building and Im also landlord to the thrift store. I cant thank Jacks Commercial enough for making this happen. Very professional and thorough all along the way. Many thanks!

Im glad to see Brian getting the good reviews he deserves. He is a pro in every aspect of the word: he knows his stuff and is prompt and responsive. Most importantly, he is highly communicative. My business partner and I are opening a restaurant in Sacramento, and Brian showed us quickly to the perfect building for our uses and helped us seal the deal. Along the way, he educated us well as we were relatively naïve in the field of real estate, and he was direct and willing to elaborate. Aside from his high professional standards, hes genuinely a nice guy to be around. If you work with anyone else but him youre likely doing it wrong.

Brian just recently helped us complete a lease on a new church space. We brought him in late in the game and he expertly inserted himself into a very uncomfortable and tense negotiation. From there Brian guided us with grace and expertise at every turn. He was available whenever we needed him and was responsible to never drop the ball. He even put up with all of our stupid questions and ideas from pastors who really have no idea what we’re doing. I could not recommend him enough for your commercial real estate needs.

This may be the most courteous, effective, quick responding real estate agency in the Sacramento area. We were looking for a new location for a small private school, and had trouble talking to other realtors (or even getting them to call us back). The people at this agency not only called me back the same day, but I had a direct connection to the manager of a property we were interested almost immediately. I would highly recommend their services ANY time! :)

Brian is just what you need in a commercial broker: he is honest, responsive, and willing to do what it takes to get a deal done. I would not hesitate to refer someone that needs commercial leasing assistance in the Sacramento area. Brians use of technology is impressive, and it helps him cut through the clutter to deliver impressive results in a short amount of time. Without a doubt, he is one of the best in town!

The owner negotiated my business lease in record time and saved me me more money than I ever thought possible. This company was a pleasure to work with no pressure or hard sale, and I was listened to. I would use them again with no hesitation.
