Testimonials

"Jay was great to work with.  He was externally knowledgeable of the area and market, and helped us narrow down where we wanted to be.  He was always there for us from when we started looking until we closed on our home.  We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend using Jay if you are looking for a  realtor in the Deep Creek Area."

 

"If you're looking for a realtor who is totally dedicated and will go the "extra-mile" for his customers, then you can't go wrong with Jay. It is my pleasure to recommend Jay without any reservations whatsoever."

 

"Jay is very courteous, excellent negotiator, knows how And where to advertise for best results.  He sold my house In less than 2 months.  He kept constant contact with me on the progress.  I’m still in shock with how quickly things went.  But am very happy and satisfied with the hard work Jay put  into selling my house.  I would definitely recommend Jay As a top notch realtor!  Thanks Jay!"

 

"Jay was a blessing in helping us find a home. We lived in Arizona and was looking for a house in Oakland. Even though we lived miles away, he was wonderful in finding listings of homes that we were interested in.  Great customer service. Very kind and friendly. Great experience from day one."

 

"Jay was great!  He was very patient in addressing our multiple questions and listened intently to our requirements.  He followed through with getting us additional information about the community to help us with our decision process.  He also went out of his way to contact County and HOA  representatives to ensure that we got what we needed to address concerns about the property.  Overall, Jay did an excellent job for us and we really appreciated his work towards getting us a dream property."

 

"Jay was exceptional in every respect through our sale. He was always available, gave us solid advice on pricing and marketing our home and was very enjoyable to work with. Jay's whole operation is very professional, including production of an extensive photo layout and a video, and use of web-based  marketing tools - all the people working with Jay are similarly professional and nice to work with. Most importantly, Jay is absolutely honest. He earned our trust and did a great job for us. Having worked with Jay, it is no surprise to me that Taylor-Made is growing so rapidly. They are everything you want your real estate agent to be."

 

"Jay does an awesome job. He really knows his stuff. If your looking for a top of the line realitor he's the go to guy to get it done if it can be done. He puts 110% and makes it all about your needs and wants. Thanks for the great job you did for my family and me."

 

 

"I really enjoyed working with Jay concerning the selling of our Deep Creek property.  We had a few bumps along the way, but Jay solved everything, keep us informed, and sold the house for more than I thought we would gain from the sale. Jay really cares about his clients and it comes across in all  of his calls, messages and texts.Thank you Jay for everything.  If we had another property to buy or sell in Deep Creek, we would again ask for your help!" 

 

"We could not have asked for a better real estate broker and a very helpful professional in selling our house. On the market for two days and sold . If there are real estate transactions of any kind in our future we will certainly deal with Jay."

 

"Jay was extremely helpful and available during the selling of our Deep Creek home. He kept us informed of every detail along the way and made things extremely easy for us. His advice during the sale was on target. Jay and his staff were very personable and professional. We highly recommend Jay if  you are looking to sell or buy in the Deep Creek area."

 

"Great selling experience with Jay and the entire Taylor Made team. Our expectations were exceeded. Excellent knowledge of the local market and area. Very quick to respond."

 

"I cannot say enough about Jay’s knowledge, skill, and diligence in helping us find the perfect vacation home/rental. While my wife and I did not know Jay before we started looking to purchase our property, he has proved to be everything we could have hoped for. Having bought a vacation home/rental in Ocean City a couple years ago, my wife and I appreciate the value in having a truly suburb real estate agent, as opposed to someone who’s simply adequate. Jay was always able to provide little insights that make all the difference in finding the perfect property. For example, understanding how far a home can be located from WISP without limiting its Winter vacation rentals, knowing which locations in all of Deep Creek Lake’s inlets/coves receive the most sun throughout the day, and having a great instinct for the type of lakefront renovations likely to be approved by the DNR (and the best tactics to use), are just a few of the invaluable pieces of advice Jay provided. Jay also has a great instinct for assessing the intrinsic long-term value of each property we looked at, as well as what each home’s likely selling price would be (i.e. taking into account the time of year, current market trends etc.). Equally important for my wife and I, we never felt Jay pressured us to purchase a specific property (just so he could get his commission). Our search last almost a year during which we looked at a number of properties. While Jay always discussed each home’s pros and cons in detail, he was very measured in sharing his view as to whether we should purchase a specific property. This gave us comfort that Jay really wanted us to find the best deal possible. That paid off later on, because when we finally saw a property that Jay got excited about the house and selling price, but worried that it wouldn’t stay on the market very long, we had the confidence to act quickly. Lastly, as we went through the closing process, Jay not only provided us with great recommendations for the various contractors and venders, but was also able to lobby on our behalf with the lender. As a result, the closing was completed on-time and without any problems. This is why we would unequivocally recommend Jay to anyone, and indeed already have"

"Jay was very professional and accommodating. He was helpful in expediting the closing and made the process smooth and painless. I also used Taylor Made for my management company while we owned the property and they were great."

 

 

"Jay was an excellent Realtor to work with. He was kind, friendly, had extensive knowledge of the area, had local recommendations for Inspectors and other service workers, and was a joy to work with. He helped us find our dream home, and I will definitely be working with Jay again in the future. Thanks again for all of your help and guidance!"

 

 

"I have appreciated your hard work and success in selling the house and in keeping me informed during the process.  Your advice based on local knowledge has been invaluable. I have enjoyed your positive personality and your clear explanations. And, of course, I am pleased with the results. Many, many thanks."

 

 

"Jay was excellent to deal with throughout the entire process!  He brought the buyers for the sale of our farm and made the entire process smooth.  We couldn't be happier!"

 

 

"Jay did a great job helping us find the perfect lake house. As an expert in the area with a high level of knowledge with real estate transactions he instituted the a great deal for both the seller and us and guided us through the process. Thanks Jay and hope to see you on the lake!"

 

 

"I have been very impressed with working with Jay Ferguson. He has tremendous knowledge of the area and was very accommodating with his time spent helping my family find the right vacation home. We had rented with Taylor Made for years and stopped by the office one day this summer to inquire about  real estate. Jay was quick to answer our questions and I felt like he was the most honest and forthcoming real estate person we have ever worked with - anywhere. I consider Jay a friend and trusted adviser on all things Deep Creek Lake. His company has been spectacular from a property management perspective, too. No matter what we need, Taylor Made has people who can help! Highly recommend Taylor Made and Jay Ferguson!"

 

 

"Jay stepped in when our agent was out of town. He was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the area in general as well as the development of our purchase. Jay's no-nonsense, yet genuine approach and advice allowed us to feel comfortable about our decision to purchase as well as to know that  we weren't overpaying for a vacation home. Jay had a precise attention to detail once we were under contract and kept us in the loop - almost to the second - as to the progress of our deal."

 

 

"Jay was a great resource in selling our vacation home. He was knowledgeable about the local market, thoughtful about marketing, and good at keeping my wife and me informed about the status of our property. We sought Jay out because of his visibility in the real estate community in the Deep Creek  area and were very pleased with his good natured approach, straight talk, and professional follow through, from marketing to closing."

 

 

"It was such a pleasure to work with Jay.  He provided such personal service and responded to all of our calls and concerns immediately.  We felt he listened and worked hard to find us the right home. When we found our dream home he was the listing broker, and Jay recommended that we find another agent to represent us; however, we found so comfortable with Jay that we decided that we didn’t need a third party. The closing went swift, smooth and a pleasurable experience. We highly recommend Jay."

 

 

 

"Being that we have purchased several homes and investment properties with real estate agents and I was a real estate agent for a couple of years myself, I have worked with dozens and dozens of real estate agents. With that, Jay Ferguson, my most recent realtor, is by far the best agent I have ever  worked with. Besides being genuinely a good guy, he is a true professional whose local knowledge is invaluable (especially to a non-local like myself). Jay's follow up and responsiveness was immediate and with any information requested by us, Jay went above and beyond to collect it.  I would use Jay as my real estate agent again and would recommend Jay to anyone including my friends and family."
