"I had been contemplating for some time to purchase an "Income Property" as a long term investment. When I came upon the right property I contacted Jan and thanks to him everything went extremely smoothly with very little stress for me. He is very confident in what he is doing and I have developed trust in Jan's professional behavior for future deals. Don't hesitate to contact Jan for advice regarding your real estate needs."

I was very pleased with the successful, professional experience I had with Jan, he was very knowledgeable about houses and the current real estate market trends. In a difficult spousal sale, Jan remained supportive, professional and was the success in obtaining both signatures to sell our house. I would defiantly recommend Jan for a positive real estate experience!! Ann

“Selling your home can be a scary experience, you have mixed feelings about its worth, especially if you have done a lot of working making it your own. How will prospective buyers react to the price? We felt ourselves very fortunate to have someone like Jan Kahlen to turn to when it came to selling our house. Jan took us through every step, patiently explaining all sides to ensure we were well informed in our decisions. But were he really came through, was in the final details when the offer to purchase came in. He worked diligently to ensure all aspects were looked after, and no oversights occurred on closing. This was especially important since we were already moving across the country at closing. Thanks again Jan and continued success to you.”

Anne and I bought our first home recently and found our realtor through a referral from my parents. We know a few realtors in Kingston, but given the strong referral we elected to go with Jan. Jan was fantastic from beginning to end. He made looking for a home easy, and made sure we weren’t overwhelmed when it finally came time to put an offer in on a house. Jacob Caldwell

Professional, expert advice - smooth experience.We got posted to Kingston in July 2009 from Ottawa. Jan helped us at every stage of our journey. He gave expert advice and we could count on him to help us with decisions without being pushy. He tailored our experience to match our style of doing business and was accessible at all times for advice. Jan followed up regularly, ensuring we were happy with our service. He still checks in every now and then. We have eagerly recommended Jan to our friends and colleagues who are moving to or from Kingston. His professionalism and personalism come together in a great way. We will definitely be calling on Jan to help us when we are posted again. Thanks Jan! Adrian & Melany

It has been a pleasure working with Jan as he truly understands the importance of knowing his clients on a personal level, a necessary step towards placing them in houses they can confidently call homes. His open-door approach makes certain that we never felt intimidated, overwhelmed or afraid to ask questions. He is supportive and honest throughout the home buying process and with this, exemplifies extraordinary communication skills. We will most definitely utilize Jan in the future and encourage others to do so as well. Kati Kennedy & Tom Clayton

I have known Jan for almost 5 years and during that time Jan has helped me and my wife in the purchase of our new home. Additionally I referred Jan to my son and his wife for the purchase of their first home. In all I have referred Jan to at least 5 of my contacts and close friends. In every case they report to me what a great guy he is, how easy he was to deal with and they too would recommend him to friends and family. Most recently I referred Jan to a couple who were, unfortunately, splitting up. Initially they tried to sell the house without any agent and still Jan helped them. Finally they realized that they were not going to be successful and they listed with Jan and sold it within the month for very close to asking price. Jan's extensive knowledge in construction and real estate are a value added you do not find in every agent. We have used Jan in the past, will use him in the future and will recommend him to friends and family in need of a quality agent.

If you find yourself asking why use a realtor?, working with Jan will answer that. Jan partnered with us to develop a solid strategy on how to prepare, price, market and show our house, which resulted in our country property selling for 96% of asking in less than 12 weeks in a tough market, and then helped us find the dream home we didn't think existed!

When we learned our family would be moving to Kingston, our friends suggested Jan. In the beginning, we were not planning on sticking with one realtor because we were afraid he would only look after his interest. Much to our surprise, and our pleasure, we discovered that he was looking out for nobody's interests but ours. He only showed us homes within our budget, and satisfied our must-haves. Soon we found the house of our dreams. As well, Jan is fluent on the Military Relocation requirements and was indispensible in helping us negotiate any hurdles we faced. Our move could never have run as smoothly without his help. Thank you so much, Jan! Rob & Allison Hannaford
