I found Jori through reviews on Google and decided to reach out to her to be our realtor. This was our first time buying a home and we had no idea what we were doing. Jori answered all of our questions, explained complicated things in terms we could understand, and was easy to reach when we needed her. We really appreciated that she is very honest and direct, pointing out potential issues in houses we viewed, and did not try to sway our opinion on anything we were not interested in. The whole process happened a lot faster than we expected but she helped us feel prepared. She made sure to go through each step of the closing process very thoroughly so we always knew what was going on and what needed to happen next. We had some problems after closing and she was still there to help us. Overall, Jori made the stressful process of buying a home feel manageable and I would recommend her for anyone looking for a home in the Gilroy area. read more

My husband and I became acquainted w/ Jori a few years ago when we first considered buying a home. A few years later, the time was right, and we called Jori again to help with the search of our first home. Happily, we found our home within 2 weeks, but that was when the hard work began. All I'll say is that we should have gone w/ Jori's recommendation for a mortgage broker. The large bank was not it! During the difficult, stressful month that followed (no thanks to you, large bank!), Jori was with us every step of the way. She was persistent and not at all shy about asking the tough questions and advocating on our behalf. She never failed to answer our many, many questions. She was always patient but forthright. I would not hesitate to recommend Jori Mayer, and she will be our first call should we decide to sell and buy again. read more

Buying a place can be a daunting and an intimidating experience. Jori made this an exciting and smooth process. We discussed what I was looking for and settled on a price range. She introduced me to Janene Towner Chernoff, from Guild Mortgage. With a few different scenarios from Janene, we were off to see what was on the market. Jori ensured I always saw the latest listings and stayed in contact throughout the whole process. Jori listened to my likes/dislikes with each place and provided insight into each place's potential. When making the final decision, she helped navigate the "what ifs" and provided caring but straightforward advice. I know there were behind the scenes discussions and I am so grateful to Jori for securing the deal that ultimately secured a new home, a new beginning for me and my family. read more

We worked with Jori to buy our first house in the Bay Area. Being in the area for long we knew how hard the real estate market was. We were however very fortunate to meet Jori who took away the fear of the unknown. She had an initial 2 hour call with us to understand what we were looking for .Every week, based on our requirements she would shortlist houses which she thought had the most potential and send them over.If we liked a house she emailed us the disclosures and went through it with us. She also compiled a list of all recent sales in the area to give us an idea of the price the house might sell for. What sets Jori apart was her high moral ethics. She is not here to make quick bucks. She does not pressurize you to make a decision to buy anything . She does not tell you to bid crazy prices so you get the house. She believes in giving you enough data for you to make informed decision . She really wants to get the dream house for the right reasons. She understands the difficulty and pressure the first time home buyers go through.She really is with you all the way.Jori is extremely patient , she is always available via text , email, phone call whatever works. Being a local kid she knows the ins and outs of the area. I highly recommend Jori if you are either first time buyer or experienced you will not go wrong with her. read more

The phrase "I could not have done this without you" is an understatement! Jori provided everything I wanted, needed & didn't know I needed from a realtor! Her patience, knowledge, support & kindness made the overwhelming & complicated process of selling & buying a home possible. I especially appreciate how Jori consistently presented various options, steeped in important information highlighting potential pluses and minuses. She would patiently inform and guide without any pressure. Above all, she talked me down from my "overwhelm ledge" time after time. The fact that I had her support at each step has been beyond invaluable & so appreciated! I highly recommend Jori if you are looking for a realtor! read more

It was such a pleasure working with Jori to find our first investment home in Gilroy. She is definitely a superstar in the industry. Jori was super patient with our questions and understood our needs. She started by educating us about the area, highlighting points to notice when it comes to an investment home, and providing us with the resources for house hunting. She recommended houses that fit our needs and even planned our day for house viewing. She came with us all the way and gave constructive critiques of the houses. It only took us 2 weeks to find the house that worked the best. Before sending the offer, Jori provided us with house comp reports which was useful in helping us to decide the price. We won the bid on the first try, which was painless on our side, but we definitely understood it was Jori who used her wonderful negotiation skills behind the scenes to make it happen. When it comes to paperwork time, Jori digested the tedious legal documents and let us know which ones we have to pay special attention to. She is definitely not the one asking you just to sign here and there, she helped us go through the 400+ pages of disclosure+HOA documents! We really can't thank her enough for this. Jori was also very resourceful when it came to different service needs related to the house. We met Jori in early October and had the transaction closed before Thanksgiving. It was way faster and smoother than we expected. During our home search, we noticed Jori had a listed house in Gilroy went pending within 14 days, which was way beating the average days on the market. She is THE realtor that you will need no matter you are buying or selling! Thanks again Jori! :) read more

Jori is awesome. My husband and I were looking to buy our first home in the San Jose area and she was there to help us along the way. The whole process and everything was new to us, but she guided us, informed us of the details, and answered all of our questions whenever we had them. She is very prompt to clear things up and help us out whenever we needed it. The biggest thing I like about Jori though, is that she tries her best to find what we are looking for and truly wishes to make sure that her client finds the perfect home they ever dreamed of. The homebuying process can be very stressful, but with Jori around, it isn't so much! You can definitely depend on her on finding your dream home! read more

Selling a house is stressful at the best of times, but selling a house when you're not physically present is a whole different ball game. I was hesitant in my search for the perfect agent, but I lucked out when I enlisted Jori's help. She was amazing in every way imaginable; she was always communicative, and well thought out in providing advice for next steps during the sale process, and she found several potential buyers, worked to negotiate a great price, and turned the house around quickly. More than that though, she went above and beyond in helping me both locate and manage various contractors for repairs in getting the house market ready. I can't thank Jori enough, and would absolutely use her again were I looking in the area. I would highly recommend her to anyone. read more

We ended up getting a place that is an excellent fit for us at a great price and we couldn't have done it without her. read more
