It's about building trust and long-term client relationships rather than just closing a transaction." Madani's family has been in Santa Cruz County for three generations, and today he is raising his own family here. Customer Steve Patterson has known him a long time. "He is a former student and current parent at the school I just retired from," says Steve. "I know a dozen real estate agents personally, and I have a high opinion of most of them. I could comfortably call four or five and know they would give me great service. But I didn't hesitate to call Jayson because I know of his success and trust him implicitly." Patterson says he called Madani after viewing an open house and "… seeing a home we wanted. Jayson was instrumental in securing the deal for us even though there were other offers… then he listed our existing home," says Patterson. "Jayson's team is absolutely amazing. They covered every aspect of getting our home ready to sell from staging to marketing. We really needed to sell our home in a timely manner to cover the cost of the new home. Here again, he was able to perform, even though the market was changing rapidly due to increased interest rates." Madani also cites these factors as reasons for earning the top spot in this year's poll: "We have a capable and driven team, unique resources, and talented agents, and we provide the highest quality care for our clients." Charlie D. is a customer who appreciates this high-quality care. "We used Jayson late last year and he helped us prepare our house for sale and get it on the market in an extremely short period of time," says Charlie. The house was fixed up, staged, and cleaned in a week. After three open houses, the house sold on the market four days later. "Jayson and his team are extremely capable," says Charlie. "They communicated to us perfectly along the way. He understood market conditions and how to get the price we were looking for. I give him and his team the highest recommendation of professionalism and quality of service." Jan Winham is also a very satisfied customer. "Last August, we hired Jayson to sell my mom's house. He gave us great advice on what to do to get it ready for the market and hired the workers to get it all done very quickly—with no money out of pocket (paid for it out of escrow)," says Winham. "Jayson and his team worked hard to get us the price we wanted. I work as a real estate appraiser in four counties and have worked with hundreds of realtors. Jayson is the best. He always shows up at the inspection with all the information. He knows the market, and he is a pleasure to work with."
