The grounds are great for walking the dog, or the toddlers, as the case may be.

It happened again last night. Nice folks who were surprised that the home they found on my web site is not my listing. How can that be? How can a home be on MY site, and not be MY listing?
Easy. Behold: The magic of IDX. IDX is one of the functions of our Triangle Multi-List System. You can search all listings from one agent's website IDX solution. Listing Agents purposely share listing information and data on the MLS with hopes that another agent will have a qualified buyer with the need for the listing.
And those MLS listings are shared through broker's sites like mine via IDX, Internet Data Exchange. So, I can show and sell almost any listing on the MLS. And visitors to my site can view any listing on the MLS that is enabled through the IDX system. And that is just about every listing.
IDX offers great flexibility to buyers. Imagine picking 7 houses in Cary and Raleigh to view one evening after work. And then imagine having to schedule to meet with an agent from each listing office, or multiple agents from one office if some of the listings were held in one office.
Nightmare averted via good use of IDX.
You can call me, or any other agent who works with Buyers and we can arrange all the showings for you, for your convenience. And you can engage one agent to represent you and your interests as your Buyers' Agent.
The system also functions to offer Sellers the most possible exposure to their homes and other properties, with thousands of Realtors having access to show the property listings to their Buyers.
Sounds like a win-win-win-win all around to me!
IDX. It is a Best Practice. And on my site, with my "No Hassle Search," you can search all day without obligation or without having to register, if you prefer not to. Call or email me when something floats your boat!

Mr. Jaquish
I would like to thank you for the work that you are putting into selling our mothers home on P....... Rd. I looked it up on the internet and was pleased to see what you have done. It brought back such a good feeling in my heart when I saw my moms house, I hope that things will work out and we can let someone feel the warmth that anyone who walked into that home felt when my mother was living.
Thank you,
Robin O.

Although I've never had to sell a property before, long or short distant, you made what I thought would have been very difficult, possible, and I thank you.
My Sisters and I are satisfied as I hope you and the buyer are.
I truly believe you were sent to us.
THANKS AGAIN FOR EVERYTHING.
Carmen

Prospective Clients of Mike Jaquish:
As recent homebuyers, with Mike as our agent, we offer this letter in the highest recommendation of Mike Jaquish's services.
Being first time homeowners, we had done as much research into the prospect of owning our own home as we could but fell far short. Luckily for us, with Mike as our guide and representative, the process proved to be one of refreshing honesty, clear vision, endless patience and selfless dedication on Mike's part.
Once the three of us determined what we wanted and what we could afford, Mike utilized this information to locate and present only the properties satisfying our needs, avoiding the wasted time often spent viewing homes above our budget or below our spatial expectations. His expediency in locating properties as soon as they hit the market allowed us to bid quickly and his expertise and candor in interpreting the home reports prevented a couple of purchase disasters.
As we moved toward purchase, Mike worked flawlessly with our loan agent (Kevin Martini), leaving very little for my wife and I to worry about.
We now own the home we wanted in the place we wanted and consider Mike Jaquish in our circle of friends. We're sure anyone hiring Mike will feel the same.
Sincerely,
James and Ali

We were put in touch with Mike when my wife got an aggressive job transfer from Atlanta and a friend of a relative referred him. Even though we were only looking for a six month lease, Mike treated us as if we were property buyers. Within two days, and only five tours, we located a property to match our needs until we could get settled into Raleigh. He was great! We plan to use his services again when we are shopping for a real home this fall.
