Client Testimonials

“I can say without question that David Viehman at Jackson Real Estate and Appraisal is the most professional, ethical, diligent and knowledgeable broker of any I have ever encountered in my business life. No one knows the area and the real estate market in the Jackson area better than David. I would not hesitate to recommend him highly to anyone seeking to buy or sell property in Jackson Hole.”

"When we decided to sell our vacation home in Jackson Hole, we searched
for a real estate company that had deep roots and a thorough
understanding of the unique nuances of the Jackson Hole real estate
market. We were concerned about our home becoming lost as just another
listing of one of the large mega real estate companies.

We selected Jackson Hole Real Estate & Appraisal because of their depth of
experience and the sharp, intelligent way that they analyze and market
the strengths of each home to the continually changing Jackson Hole real
estate market. David Viehman and his team worked closely with us on the
marketing and sale of our home and continually kept us appraised of all
showings and interest. We greatly appreciate the focused, individual
approach that JHRE&A gives to each property".

"Teresa and I (and our attorney) thank you and your staff very much for the excellent and timely handling of our recent transaction. Your communications were super, your advice and recommendations right on target. I only wish I had more property in Jackson which you could transfer for me.

I have shared these comments with my sister Grace and suggested she do the same as I did – Listen to you and do what you say.

You’ll be my guest for lunch on your next trip to downtown Culver City.

Regards to all"

“I retained David Viehman to represent me in the search and acquisition of two homes in Jackson Hole; the first in 1997 and a replacement property in 2004. With a background of 30 years in commercial real estate myself, I recognized and appreciated the true professionalism that David has.

In particular, he demonstrates:
1. Market Knowledge – He has an unparalleled knowledge of all aspects of Jackson Hole and its various real estate markets.

2. Patience - In both of my transactions, I looked at a wide variety of properties over a 1-2 year period before making an acquisition. I never felt pressured to act prematurely.

3. Integrity - For every property I was shown, I was informed of not just the positive aspects, but also of any and all negatives and/or risks.

4. Negotiation Skills - I always felt well counseled on negotiating strategy and, in both cases, felt that, together, we achieved the most favorable transaction attainable.

5. David is clearly committed to the highest standards of real estate professionalism.”

Having been an out of town homeowner and condo owner for over 25 years I have come to know and understand Jackson and Teton Village quite well. When faced with the need to sell my home under a time schedule, I decided to give you an exclusive listing primarily because all of the attention you gave to my properties. Your yearly appraisals were more impressive than the many letters I get each year from brokers who are trying to get listings.

My instincts certainly paid off. I have bought and sold many properties over the years, and have represented many friends in their sales and closings. I was particularly impressed at your constant, and yet appropriate, communications throughout the process. Your attention to all details and ability to answer important questions made the sale of my home about as easy as I could have imagined. Here in the East, nearly all of the work you did would have been done by the seller's attorney. Having acted as a sellers attorney on numerous occasions, I am most grateful for all of the calls you made and your close attention to every detail. Most of all I appreciate your overall knowledge of how to make a deal happen, and your ability to do so which is so important to an out of town seller.

Just wanted to send you our thanks for all your help with the purchase of our new Jackson Hole home. We have worked with several very highly regarded Realtors when buying property back in Illinois, but you are by far the best! Your knowledge, experience, and professionalism were greatly appreciated, and it was also nice to work with someone that we both liked and trusted. Jackson Hole Real Estate & Appraisal will always have our highest recommendation.

We worked with David Viehman for several years enroute to finding the right property for us in Jackson. We found David to be unfailingly ethical, honest, professional and focused on helping us locate the property that met our needs. David has an excellent knowledge of the Jackson market and brings a good understanding of pricing and value in Jackson Hole. We appreciated his ability to distinguish our needs versus our wants and then to identify those homes which matched our criterion. In addition, his follow up and follow through are both excellent and his attention to detail in writing a contract is extremely valuable. He is a real estate professional who definitely represented our (not his) interests throughout the search and finally the transaction.

Thank you, David, Sylvia and the team at your firm for shepherding the sales of my two Pacific Creek lots to closure. It took a while! Nonetheless, you told me from the outset that as unique as Pacific Creek is, the majority of homeseekers who come to the valley are from urban areas, and they are a bit undone by the glorious wilderness.

You always said that it would take just the right buyer and that buyer would arrive at the most unexpected time. Patience is both of our virtues, and we did wait. It all paid off in the end. You are professional to a “T”, courteous and you have given me sage advice regarding timing, value versus price and marketing.

Thank you again for your friendship, your loyality and for your achievements on my behalf. I will always direct those friends of mine who are searching for a home in the valley to your door.
Fondly,

Anne Werner

David took on the marketing of a piece of land that we had been trying to sell for some time, and frankly had given up on. Our previous experience had been that no one wished to tackle the issues, and miscommunications that had caused our property to be labeled as plagued with problems. Despite its small size relative the other land sales both in acreage and value in the Jackson area, we were treated the same as if we were selling a 2000 acre ranch. He tenaciously approached the issues; carefully navigated the various personalities involved, and ultimately achieved a superior result for both us the seller, as well as the buyer. He also put to rest a long-standing series of miscommunications in a neighborhood. I think everyone was appreciative of his efforts. We wholeheartedly recommend him based on his great knowledge of the area, as well as his high level of honesty and professionalism.

David and Chip, I wish to thank you for the outstanding service you provided me throughout the 18 month period that I was searching for a second home in Jackson. You educated me well on the local market, and truly worked for me as a buyers’ agent. Your knowledge of the local market and of individual properties was invaluable, as you were quickly able to narrow down the search to properties that would suit and not waste time on unsuitable properties. You were generous with your time and advice, and never put any pressure on me to buy. In fact there were several times that you gave me good advice that protected I had found a suitable property you helped me negotiate an excellent contract that was on favorable terms, despite it being a sellers market. There were special conditions included in the contract that protected my interests, that would not have been there had I dealt directly with the sellers agent. Once we had a contract in place, you exceeded all expectations in looking after my interests, right up to the time of closing. Your honesty, integrity and outstanding service are the reasons that I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone wanting to buy or sell a property in the Jackson area.
