Testimonials
Moving to Salt Lake City during a time with record high prices and lack of inventory was daunting to say the least. Luckily, we had Jeff to help us navigate all the craziness and to accomplish our mission of finding an amazing home in a great neighborhood.
Jeff is very professional, extremely knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about his clients. He wanted to be sure that we had a quality home that we would be happy with for years to come. Jeff scoured every inch of the house we chose to ensure everything was working properly and finished to high quality standards. It was very assuring to have his close eye to detail throughout the entire process.
We are so grateful to Jeff for all his hard work to realize our mission of finding the perfect home in SLC!
It was an absolutely wonderful experience working with Jeff Justice! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a property in the Salt Lake area. He was responsive to communication 7 days a week at any hour of the day, and made our house search his priority. Jeff did everything in his power to find us quality home options meeting all of our requirements, and did an excellent job at landing us our dream home as first-time home buyers (even in this insane Utah 2021 housing market)! Jeff Justice is an extremely experienced and knowledgeable real estate agent, and I would certainly choose him again for our real estate needs!
Jeff exceeded our expectations with the excellence of his advice, responsiveness, thoroughness and follow through. Jeff was on it from start to finish and I could tell our success and satisfaction was his number one priority. Especially impressed with his attention to detail once the inspection revealed some needed repairs. He's a true pro with incredible local knowledge and a vast network of relationships. I'd most certainly recommend Jeff to anyone.
Jeff was awesome. My partner and I were first time home buyers and pretty clueless about the whole home buying process. Jeff made the whole thing much less intimidating and was great at explaining everything and making sure we had all the information we needed to find the house that was right for us. He is super knowledgeable about the whole Salt Lake City area and all the key things to look for in a neighborhood. He was great at pointing out the good and the bad in different homes we looked at and made sure we saw things we otherwise would have missed. When we were ready to make an offer on a house that we loved, he went to bat for us and we believe he was a big reason we ultimately got it. 5 stars and would definitely work with him again!
It was a great experience to work with Jeff Justice in recently purchasing a condominium. I went alone just to look at the property and called Jeff because I was unable to find out any information. Within 24 hours Jeff had followed up, called me with all the details on the property, scheduled a formal showing and had presented our offer to purchase. He negotiated successfully for us, and our offer was accepted. He then arranged for the inspection, got bids from contractors to remedy the problems found during inspection, and made final negotiations with the seller. We were able to close very quickly because of his prompt attention to all the details. Jeff is ethical, wise, helpful and just fun to work with. I would definitely choose to work with Jeff again on any real estate purchase. I would highly recommend him to family and friends.
Jeff did an amazing job helping us sell our investment property. He was on top of every detail and made sure the sale went through without a hitch. We needed a repair to a window and Jeff took the initiative to arrange for the vendor to come the same day. If you need an agent that is there for you when you need them, Jeff Justice is your guy. This is the 3rd home we have bought or sold with him and he consistently does a great job!
Jeff was a thorough professional at every point of our purchase process. He kept closely in touch with us from our first consultation right through analysis of the property, the offer, negotiations, acceptance, inspection, closing, then finally meeting us at the property to hand us the keys. He made us feel that we were his most important clients even though our property must have been at a lower price than most of his transactions. He was skilled, attentive, courteous, appreciative of our trust, and so willing to help. He clearly demonstrated that the value of a great real estate professional is indispensable
Jeff went above and beyond our expectations! We were purchasing our first home and were new to the process. Jeff took the time at every step to make sure we were informed and felt comfortable. He was on top of everything and removed a tremendous amount of stress for us. Jeff truly worked some magic to get us our "unicorn" dream house! We constantly felt like we were his only clients because of his attention to detail and the amount of time he dedicated to us. We cannot recommend Jeff enough!
Jeff was recommended by a work colleague and we are so happy that we chose to work with him. Jeff sold our home this summer and we are thrilled with the results, which included accepting an offer over asking price and securing a backup offer as well. Jeff made the process of selling our home streamlined and easy and always kept us in the loop. Jeff was very professional and detail oriented. We would recommend Jeff to anyone in Salt Lake looking to sell their home.
As a first time home buyer, we were a little intimidated by the whole process, but Jeff made the entire experience not just enjoyable, but gave us the peace of mind to start our new chapter with extreme confidence. Jeff helped us figure out exactly what we wanted in a home and was a guiding hand to help us check more boxes than we could imagine in a property. When we did find our new home, Jeff worked incredibly hard to take care of all things big and small, alleviating all of the stress that would normally accompany such a big purchase. He made sure that the house was taken care of, repairs causing immediate concern were handled ahead of closing, and ensured that everything was set up for us to move in as soon as we had the keys.
I will be a lifelong client of Jeff, because he truly cares about client happiness at the end of the day. I truly cannot recommend Jeff Justice highly enough!
Jeff might be a wizard? He has been an absolutely amazing realtor. I have purchased 2 homes with Jeff and both times I was impressed at both how great he is to work with as well as how good he is at his job. Especially right now, it is extremely challenging to find a home and Jeff has somehow found perfect places and we bought both them under-budget (and under list price? This is where the wizardry might come in). I cannot recommend Jeff highly enough, truly the best.
We could not have found a better realtor than Jeff Justice. Jeff has incredible knowledge of the Salt Lake City neighborhoods and the era of homes; as a result, he is very informative during home viewings. We had very strong communication with Jeff, and he worked diligently on a moment's notice any time of day. He has a strong network of resources so that we didn't spend hours trying to find them ourselves. Throughout the home buying process we felt a high level of trust and comfort with Jeff due to his integrity, strong work ethic, and expertise as a realtor. He was our expert guide and advocate through the inherently stressful home buying process. We are extremely grateful for Jeff and his team.
Gus and Kelley
Jeff is an exceptional real estate agent. He came highly recommended by a family member, and rightly so. Jeff is very professional and experienced. Communication was a breeze.
He was helpful, transparent, and reliable throughout the whole process. He truly cares about his clients. We sold our home quickly and with ease.
Grateful to him for everything!
Jeff is the best agent I have ever worked with. He pays attention to every detail and makes sure he represents the client's best interests.
Jeff is a fantastic agent! He was recommended to us when we were moving to Utah from out of state, and from the first phone call it was clear that Jeff is very knowledgeable, highly connected, and an all-around kind and respectful person. We were under contract on our home on our first day of house hunting in the Salt Lake Valley, and credit Jeff for negotiating the sale price and seller concessions even in this crazy 2021 real estate market. If you want an agent that puts you at ease, makes you a priority, and stays on top of all the home-buying details, we couldn’t recommend Jeff more highly.
(The super hero name is also a bonus!)
Jeff is a fantastic realtor with incredible knowledge of the industry and the ever changing, crazy market. He takes the time to get to know your preferences/wants and gives his best advise to make sure you make the right decision. He has an amazing team behind him to help make the process from offering to closing a breeze. I’m so happy we chose Jeff for this process, I can’t imagine ever using another realtor!
Jeff was referred to me by a friend after I expressed concern with my initial experience of looking for a home in Salt Lake City Market. After an initial meeting my wife and I were thrilled to meet someone with so much knowledge and experience and we quickly begin looking at homes. During this time Jeff made a point to come to all viewings and even went to viewings for us when we were out of town. After a three month search we found our home and Jeff was a great help during the offering and closing process. I will absolutely use Jeff again in the future and will be recommending him to anyone looking for a home.
We wanted a realtor who could help us sell our home quickly with little drama and were lucky to find Jeff Justice. Jeff was very pleasant to work with and helped us sell our home in less time than we ever imagined. He set realistic goals with us, created a plan and executed the plan just as he described. Jeff is very professional and responsive, returning our calls and texts at all times of the day and night. He created a team to make our house look better than when we actually lived in it. He made sure we understood all of the offers and assisted us to pick the best one. Finding a buyer who would also qualify quickly helped us close in less than 3 weeks. I would recommend working with Jeff to sell an existing property or to buy a new home; he really knows how to get things done!
We asked and Jeff delivered! It was a great experience to work with Jeff in selling our home. He met our every need and made the whole process very smooth. Jeff was very prompt at answering any questions we had and was fully engaged through the whole process. His professionalism, efficiency, knowledge and great communication was HUGE. We highly recommend working with Jeff and his team.
My family had an incredible experience with Jeff regarding the sell of a family home in March 2021. Jeff presented us with an aggressive marketing campaign which was well thought out and fit the house and sell climate. we agreed to go with the his plan a little nervous that it was aggressive. But are concerns were quickly addressed as Jeff and his team DELIVERED ABOVE OUR EXPECTATIONS ON ALL POINTS IN THE PLAN. Impressive. Jeff knows the market and importantly understands buyers and how to approach them. And he is great to work with to boot!
Working with Jeff to sell my condominium was a great idea experience. He provided sound advice on how to prepare my property to obtain maximum value in the sell, negotiated great great price on my behalf, and sold the property quickly. Throughout the entire process Jeff was organized, prepared and thinking ahead to the next step in the process. I would recommend Jeff to anybody looking to sell a home
I am so glad I had Jeff as my agent. He made my first experience buying a home so good even in this crazy market. I went from knowing nothing to confidently making an offer on a great house in a couple weeks. His experience and connections are invaluable assets you will want in your corner. He is beyond responsive and will take good care of you. Thanks again Jeff!
In one of the worst buyers market in utah history, Jeff was able to help get us an amazing house in the area we wanted. While most other agents were saying we would probably have 9 offers rejected before we could find a place, we only had 1 offer rejected. Our 2nd one led to a new house (we beat out 21 other offers)!
He helped us put down the strongest offer we could with lots of confidence, long nights, and amazing communication. He fought for us to get our house. His pressure and following up pushed the buyers to go with us! He is the reason we got our home.
His contacts were also wonderful to work with and had amazing work ethic. He knows some solid people in the industry and has great recommendations. He is honest and critical of homes. Jeff will help you find a GOOD house, not just an easy sell/buy.
We closed on our house just 2 weeks after our offer was accepted!
Cannot recommend him enough
Jeff handled our real estate transaction like a BOSS. He knows & has worked with a lot of other realtors in the valley & has a great feel for the market. Through his network, we went from under contract to owning in under 3 weeks! If you go with Justice, you cannot go wrong.
We had such an awesome experience with Jeff. He was more than happy to help us through the home purchasing process as first time home buyers in a rather competitive market. He was very flexible and would walk us through homes at odd hours, and on nights and weekends, to accommodate my busy work schedule. He was attentive to detail when we were viewing homes, and could give us plenty of information about the property to make an informed choice. He could tell right away if a water heater would need replacement, the roof needed repair, how current the plumbing was, etc. so we knew how well the house would stand the test of time. He was incredibly organized and always very prepared. Any time we needed a document assembled he was quick to pull it together. He has relationships with everyone in the valley because of his years and years of experience. As proof of this - after inspection, he pulled bids from plumbers/electricians/contractors for anything that needed repair and was happy to ask favors of people who would otherwise be booked up. Jeff is hardworking and honest to his core, and it is wholly evident in his work in realty. We could not have picked a better person to sell us our home, and have already recommended him to our friends and family in the area.
It was a pleasure working with Jeff. My husband and I are new to Salt Lake City and with Jeff's help we were able to find area we love. Jeff is incredibly knowledgeable, very responsive and communicated proactively during all steps of the process. Whether you are new to the area or Utah resident I would recommend using Jeff. He is great to work with.
We've used Jeff for transactions on three homes now, and each time he's gone over and above what we'd expect from a real estate agent. With his experience, he has a great sense of the value of a home. He has negotiated on our behalf to get us the best possible value in each transaction. He's organized and attentive to details; we've never had a slip-up or missed appointment or paperwork. He has a network of electricians, plumbers, inspectors, etc., that helps make sure any needed work is done right, quickly and at a good price. He makes buying and selling a home as easy as possible. If we need a real estate agent in the future, there's no question we'd use Jeff again.
My wife and I were first-time home buyers and Jeff Justice was absolutely amazing to work with. I can't imagine using a different relator - he will be our go-to moving forward. If you're looking for someone well connected, professional, has a network of people, attentive, and just an all-around great person give Jeff a call, you will not be disappointed.
Throughout the whole process Jeff made it extremely easy since he is so well organized and has so much expertise. His connections came in helpful so many times on our short time-frame. He was able to secure bids and get people moving at the snap of his fingers. He always had our best interests at heart and made sure we didn't make any wrong decisions. He literally saved us thousands of dollars because he was so diligent and knew exactly what to do. Even after we bought the house I'm still in contact with him using his resources and he's always been within a phone call away.
We've appreciated Jeff's help and it was a pleasure working with him.
My experience with Jeff has been superb. He was patient when walking us through the process of selling our home. He spent time going through my house to make sure it was ready to list. Because of all the time he spent, I felt calm and confident in listing my home. Also, my home sold in record speed, which I owe partly to Jeff and his team. I will definitely be working with Jeff again because I know I will have a seamless and stressless experience.
We have worked with Jeff Justice to purchase our current home and he has sold another property for us. He has a great crew of people to help stage, paint or repair anything before the house is listed. Very responsive and always keeping you in the loop. Working with someone like Jeff is a breath of fresh air because he is so knowledgeable, there are no surprises and he anticipates any problems before they arise. I can't recommend him enough.
Jeff has been the best real-estate agent we've had to date. Even despite the pandemic and unprecedented housing market with low inventory and high demand, he made us feel like his only client. He helped us see over 10 properties remotely and was honest about his assessment of each property, which proved to be correct based on our tastes. This insight was invaluable given the circumstances. He was also thoughtful in his advice for how to approach offers and contract negotiations. In particular, he walked us through every step of the process. Most of all, he helped us buy our dream house. Can't recommend Jeff and his team enough!
Jeff was fantastic to work with, our home was under contract in 48 hrs. and we got what we were asking. His local knowledge of Salt Lake City and surrounding areas was invaluable to us and he was always quick to communicate and pick up the phone when needed. We would recommend Jeff to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area.
We had a great experience using Jeff when we sold our home and purchased another. Buying and selling a home at the same time can be very stressful because there are so many things happening at the same time, especially in Utah's competitive real estate market. Jeff did an amazing job of always thinking and working ahead. He knew what to anticipate, he scheduled things in advance, and he was always available to walk us through the process and answer questions. He made the entire process seamless for us. The home that we needed to fit our needs wasn't "cookie-cutter" so it was more difficult to find, but thanks to Jeff we found something we couldn't be more excited about.
Jeff was a top professional agent in helping us with the selling of our home. Jeff has helped me and my family with multiple sales and purchases of different properties and has done a fantastic job in all cases. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for the best and most professional experience.
Jeff helped me and my wife to find a great house during the COVID pandemic. The market was extremely difficult as nobody knew what we were facing, but Jeff was able to navigate turbulent waters safely. Jeff is very knowledgeable about the city and its properties and is always available for any kind of question. I highly recommend Jeff for a headache-free home hunting. From my perspective, you won’t find a better agent than Jeff.
If six stars could be given for Jeff Justice's expertise, tenacity and focus on his fiduciary responsibilities to his client-- that would be my rating!
Jeff is that special agent who goes the extra mile to not only meet, but to exceed his client's expectations. And, he does so while structuring transactions that leave all parties with a belief that fairness and integrity are paramount.
I can't recommend Jeff highly enough, but I plan on doing my best by recommending him to friends and family at every opportunity!
What can I say? Jeff's a rockstar. From day one, he took the time to listen to our needs and quickly honed in on what we were looking for. Having recently moved to the area, his knowledge of different neighborhoods really helped us understand the pros and cons of each location. But what really shines through with Jeff is the sense that he's really on your side. He will always work in your favor, and we felt confident that he was looking out for us at every step. He was always clear with us on the pros and cons of each home, down to the bones. Will definitely work with him again.
I feel lucky to find Jeff Justice to help with the purchase of 2 houses recently. He is very professional and always has valuable inputs when asked. I had limited time and had to see many houses in a short time. The efficiency he operates is impressive! He is patient, respectful and does not push anything on you. He also has very good network of other professionals. I don't think my experience with house purchases could be any better. I will surely call him again when I need to sell or buy another property.
We recently had the pleasure of buying and selling our home through Jeff Justice. We have bought and sold homes in the past, and this was by far the best experience we have had. When it came time to put in an offer, Jeff was amazing! Once the paperwork was signed, Jeff didn’t disappear like our realtors in the past. He made sure all of the home inspection items were completed and everything was as it should be. He negotiated the best possible deal and made it happen for us.
If you are looking for realtor to buy or sell your home, do yourself a favor and go with Jeff Justice. Without Jeff we would not be living in the home of our dreams, let him do the same for you.
Once our house was on the market, he gave us daily updates in regards to feedback from realtors and potential buyers. He was very good about scheduling appointments so that we had plenty of notice and did not feel inconvenienced. When we entered contract negotiations, Jeff was available day and night to discuss issues that came up. He always made us feel like we were his top priority. He seemed to keep our best interests in mind. Jeff was very honest and trustworthy.
My family and I had a wonderful experience working with Jeff. His knowledge of the local real estate market, combined with a distinct professionalism, enthusiasm for his work, and dedication to his client’s satisfaction made the experience of buying our new house relaxed and thoroughly enjoyable. I can recommend him as a highly competent realtor without qualification.
Jeff Justice was our realtor for both the purchase of our home in SLC as well as its sale. Throughout both the purchase and sale process, Jeff’s real estate knowledge as well as his professionalism served us very well. He has been in the business many years and knows every detail of both processes. In addition, he has many contacts in the banking, construction, remodeling, insurance and every other profession related to housing. Jeff is a very amiable person and easy to work with. I would have no reservations whatsoever recommending him to anyone.
We visited with four Realtors before deciding on Jeff. His approach immediately captured our thoughts and we are very satisfied with the outcome.
Jeff Justice is the reason why we have our dream home. He worked late nights and long hours to insure that things got done. When the mortgage company caused delays which made the seller nervous, Jeff's reputation and rapport with the seller's agent kept the deal from falling apart.
We'd recommend Jeff without hesitation to anyone looking for a Salt Lake City Realtor.
Jeff was a fantastic realtor to work with. We had a very strict schedule of when we could view homes and he completely opened up his schedule to fit our needs. We definitely felt like he valued our time. We ended up getting into a bidding war for our home and Jeff knew exactly what to do so we could get our dream home. We would recommend him to anyone and if we need another realtor in the future, he will be the first person we call.
I can’t praise Jeff Justice enough for a job well done as our real estate agent. Jeff got us our dream home. He is an amazing real estate agent. He is dedicated, patient, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He was our personal advocate and took the time to understand what we wanted and worked hard in order to achieve that.
Because of Jeff’s connections, he often is able to hear of houses that are not yet listed. In our case, he found a home that had only been listed a short time and did not even have a sign out front. He is a tireless worker and will not give up until he has found exactly what his clients want and need. In my mind, Jeff Justice is one of Utah’s premier real estate agents. We will always be indebted to Jeff for finding us a wonderful home at a good deal.
We wanted to express how pleased we were to work with Jeff Justice in selling our home and buying a new one. We had some unusual and sometimes complicated situations and Jeff was fabulous to work with throughout the entire process.
Jeff gave us some excellent advice in what we needed to do to sell our home. We were impressed with his attention to detail and his willingness to spend time with us. To be blunt, we were especially pleased that Jeff was always attentive but never pushy or annoying! That’s what we liked the most.
Jeff was a tremendous realtor to work with when we decided to sell our home. We interviewed several and found Jeff to be knowledgeable and passionate about the area. He worked hard to prepare the property on our behalf as we were no longer local, and then marketed the property very effectively. Jeff kept us informed continuously and always did exactly what he said he would do. In the end we sold the home after weighing multiple competing offers even though it was a down market. Jeff did a great job and we'd recommend him to anyone and wouldn't hesitate to work with him again.
We would like to express our sincere appreciation for the excellent service provided by Jeff Justice. As relocating from another state, we relied on his expert knowledge of various areas and his honest and candid evaluations of different subdivisions and communities. He has a gift for knowing the needs and desires of his clients. He was not merely interested in “selling” us any house, but went above and beyond to ensure that it was the suitable home for us. Jeff pointed out elements of the house so that we would be aware of exactly what we would be purchasing. Jeff’s expertise did not end with signing of the sales contract, but he was there every step of the process from inspection to settlement. Jeff is very knowledgeable in the purchasing/closing process and he was the “go-to” person for the right referrals. Most importantly, he is extremely attentive to detail and I can be certain that all aspects of any transaction will be taken care of. We consider ourselves to be very particular, but Jeff has made our relocation as stress-free and even enjoyable as possible.
Jeff has supported us on both the sale and purchase of our homes. He has an unparralleled understanding of the Salt Lake City market and its unique dynamics. He helped us find an excellent value that after 7 years, continues to meet our needs. Jeff has excellent follow-through and is highly recommended.
The prospect of buying our home seemed like a daunting task. Fortunately, we had Jeff Justice. He made the house hunting process enjoyable. His great personality was an asset when dealing with other Realtors, they like him as much as we did! When all was said and done, Jeff got us the house we wanted, at a price we wanted. We would unabashedly recommend Jeff to anyone.
