About Aaron Jones

Thank you for checking out my profile.  My name is Aaron Jones and I am the Broker/Owner of RE/MAX Lakes Realty.  I specialize in lakeshore home sales on West Lake Okoboji, East Lake Okoboji, Big Spirit, Lake Minnewashta, Lower Gar Lake, and Upper Gar Lake.   Below you will find over 150 testimonials on Zillow.
I have been selling real estate since 2012. I am a lifelong resident of Lake Okoboji and my family has been in construction for about 60 years. I grew up in construction and understand construction costs, and this has helped me immensely in adding value for my clients. Prior to selling real estate, I managed a furniture manufacturing facility in Milford, IA. I learned a lot about lean manufacturing and have brought many of those concepts into our business here, mainly focused on efficient technologies in real estate. I have a great team of 24 agents that work together to find buyers for our clients. I have 2 incredible employees, and also have a technology business partner in India, and we have been developing real estate management and paperless transaction management solutions, along with our own proprietary electronic signature service (www.signfast.com and www.leadcity.com) and we use these solutions daily in our office. I have built 5 homes since I was 26, 4 of them being lake homes, and I invest everything I have in real estate. 
 
I’m very proud of our agents in so many ways, but the success is partially defined by the numbers. In 2020, our office closed more Dickinson county transactions than any other office, and in Dickinson county, we beat all other offices in Sales volume by over $20,000,000. We know how to market; we know how to treat people, and we know how to do the right thing, regardless of dollar signs. Lastly, since 2015, I have closed more transactions than any other agent in the MLS in Dickinson county, and I’m proud to say that I was #1 in sales volume in 2020 for the entire MLS. When you hire me to sell, you will get ethical, professional service with expertise in online marketing, social media marketing, and web lead generation, which will produce a buyer for your home.  When you hire me to buy, you will have someone in your corner that will find you that perfect home, even if that means sending out mailers or contacting owners through facebook to find you that special place.

Area Insights

The West Lake "Tie Up"

The West Lake

For most leisure boaters in the Iowa Great Lakes, there are 2 main hot spots to go throw an anchor, sit back, and just relax. Sometimes this will result in numerous boats tying up to one another (you may not even know your neighbor), and sometimes it results in a little more privacy where you can chill just by yourself. Every weekend, boaters make the trek across the deepest parts of West Lake to either Gull Point (North AND South side) and Miller's Bay. Thought there are many other great areas to throw an anchor, relax, and swim, these are the two hot spots. If you aren't sure where to go on a Saturday afternoon or wonder where your friends might be, these two spots would be a good start.

Testimonials

Aaron was very knowledgeable and helpful. He was willing to work around our schedule and answered all communication promptly! He was an asset in our purchase.

Aaron and Kymm were an incredible asset to selling our home. They came and did a thorough walk-through and provided us with realistic tips to stage and prep the house, as well as an honest value and listing price. They were upfront about their commissions (which were very reasonable) and answered every question we had about the process. They provided us with ample time to prepare for showings, and kept us in the loop about comments potential buyers made so we could adjust staging and consider offers seriously. When it came time to negotiate with a buyer, they provided clear, easy to understand explanations of the legal details and were genuinely interested in facilitating the sale with us in mind first

We have had great success over the years with Aaron on helping us not only sell our house but purchasing a new house as well. He has been a long time resident in the Okoboji area and really has the knowledge to help you find what you are really looking for. Our last house we purchased with him it was a great experience we totally put 100 percent of our trust in him and we couldn't be any happier with the results! Aaron is a very hard worker and 100 percent committed to his clients.. So in the future when you are looking for a realtor and want things to go smooth please call Aaron Jones with RE/MAX you wont be disappointed.

Aaron was very helpful in our pursuit of a new home. He went the extra mile finding us a home that was not even listed on the market. He also was able to sell our existing home in a week.

Aaron proved to be the difference between us finding a house and not finding a house. Being completely new to the area we had no idea where to look or what to look for, Aaron helped us to zero-in on the house we wanted for the amount of money we wanted to spend. I highly recommend Aaron

Aaron is a very upfront, and honest. He was very thorough on making sure we understood on what the next step was when buying our home. There was no surprises at the end. We enjoyed working with him.

We first met Aaron Jones in 2012 when we moved to Spirit Lake. We came across him on the Remax/Lakes Realty, then BojiRemax, website when we were looking to buy a house. He has been our realtor and friend ever since. He helped us to buy our first house in the lakes area, and recently helped us to resell the house and to buy a new one. We were looking to downsize and had some specific requests, in which Aaron was very patient and understanding with us when it came to finding a house. And he sold our previous house in less than 1 week! He is always very professional, positive and knowledgeable about real estate. We would highly recommend Aaron for future home buying or selling!

Herman is the best in the business I have been buying and selling houses in DFW for over 20 years and I have never had someone so detailed, informative, professional and results driven. He got more then I was asking for my house and sold it within a week. I will never use another realtor.

As first time home buyers, my husband and I lucked out when we found Herman Holt during our search for a real estate agent. We combed through various websites for reviews before finding Herman. Our goal was to ensure that we found someone that would help us find the home of our dreams and provide us the honest feedback we would need to make a sound financial decision for the biggest purchase of our lives. Other satisfied home buyers highly recommended Herman as a 380 corridor expert and trusted confidant. Herman not only lived up to this description but he went above and beyond to help us buy our home. Herman helped us though every step of the process and he was willing to work with us 7 days a week if needed to make sure we secured our home. Thanks to Herman, buying a home was a smooth and relatively easy process. Although we have already closed on our home, Herman remains a resource and trusted adviser to us.

Herman possesses a knowledge of the local market second to none. After discussing the market and housing trends we were able to list and sell within a weekend. I believe that was entirely due to Herman’s recommendations in staging the house, excellent photographer, and spot in pricing. My wife and I enjoyed Herman’s honest and accurate advice throughout the process. If we ever need to buy or sell a home I would definitely use Herman again!

After another realtor failed to sell my home, Herman sold it in one weekend! He is extremely knowledgeable and strategic. I definitely recommend using Herman.

Mr. Holt is a great realtor! He is very knowledgeable, and takes the time to educate his clients. He keeps his clients best interests at heart during each phase of the process. Mr. Holt helped to make the transaction of both buying and selling a home extremely smooth. I don't plan on moving anytime soon, but if I needed a realtor again, he would definitely be the first person I call!

When we contacted Herman, he came to our house ready to answer our questions about staying at our house or move to another one. He helped us sale the house and also found our new home, he was there when we needed him and helped us through out the transition. If you are planning of buying or selling your house he is the person to contact. You will not only find a Realtor but a friendship.

If you are looking to buy or sell a home, look no further than Herman Holt! Herman is an impeccable realtor who is well-versed in realty, is GREAT with communication, has tremendous marketing techniques, and best of all, knows how to get the job done! We could not have had a better experience with Herman. He made a very stressful situation, stress-free, which is quite hard to believe. For all your realty needs, contact Herman Holt!
