My first dealings with Jeff were in 2015. He has been my realtor ever since for a number of transactions, both buying and selling. Jeff and his team have always provided highly professional services while showing genuine care working with me. Jeff has so much valuable knowledge and experience and works diligently with ambition. They say a referral is the biggest compliment you can give and I have referred close family to Jeff. I could not recommend Jeff highly enough I am looking forward to working with him and his team again in the future. - Jake Heney
Home Sale in Peterborough, ON | Feb 2022
Well what can we say? Jeff came to meet up with us late last year and and we immediately felt comfortable with him :). When we felt it was time to start the ball rolling, he and his team were right there and this process carried on professionally all the way through from putting up the signs and walking us through the processes of showing the property and engaging with the other realtors . We would highly recommend Jeff and his team if you are serious about selling your home correctly. Job well done folks and a special thanks to Kaitlyn for her prompt responses to any questions and certainly providing us with feedback from the potential buyers who went through the property. You guys ROCK!! - Harry & Lynn Radford

We hired Jeff Sands on a recommendation as we were looking in an area 3 hours from our current home. He helped us at getting to see the home and complete a purchase in just a couple days. Jeff is very knowledgable about the area and details about the property. We are very thankful for all his help and would recommend him to anyone interested in buying or selling their home. - Charlie Gandt

Jeff was great. Excellent communication, quick to answer the phone. His administration staff was wonderful, quick with responses. Even when we ran into some issues, he was supportive and helpful...never felt that he wasn't there to help. The house sold in 7 days above our asking price. We will definitely use Jeff's team again for our next transaction. - J. & P. Phillips

Home Purchase in Peterborough, ON | Oct 2021
We were second time homebuyers that needed a realtor to walk us through like it was our first time. Jeff and his team were there for all of our questions, and gave advice that helped us close on our favorite listing. In today's markets we had trouble putting a "value" to each home we looked at. The information booklets put together by this team helped us compare properties and ensure we were getting a good home for the price we were paying. A big thank you to Jeff & team! - Jason

Property Purchase in Peterborough, ON | Aug 2021
Jeff OWNS! We are a young family looking for our first home. We were working with several realtors, and we're going nowhere fast. We looked at over two dozen houses, put in three offers, but to no avail… until we found Jeff. Jeff got us our first home so fast he gave us whiplash, but in the best way possible! We met with him once; we knew what we wanted and he knew how to make it happen. He is a shark in real estate - yet humble, and a pleasure to work with. He knows his stuff and it shows! I look forward to working with Jeff again, and highly recommend him. - Suzanna

Jeff and his team are awesome to work with. Very knowledgeable and motivated to help how ever possible. Given a very quick closing date they were able to find us a property in our budget also. - Cody Johnson
Property Purchase in Peterborough, ON | Apr 2021
Jeff was enthusiastic and engaged throughout our buying process. He was also honest and steered us away from certain properties that didn’t meet the criteria we’d set. He was flexible when it came to answering our many inquiries and in accommodating our schedule. He took additional time with us to assist in securing a tenant for our new income property and put us in touch with a handyman to assist with some work that was required. Overall, a good experience and we would use him again. - Chris

Can't say enough good things about Jeff. We met virtually in the middle of the lock-down when I was living halfway across the world. Without a physical meeting, he made arrangements for me to settle in my rental once I arrived in the country and has been a great landlord to have throughout my stay. Always happy to respond to my messages and resolve any issues I had. I would gladly recommend working with him, he's a great person, reasonable, and dedicated to meeting his clients needs. - Olugbenga

Jeff and I met in the park earlier this year and after finding out that he was a real estate agent I told him I was thinking of selling my house and he said to reach out to me when the time comes. Jeff ended up listing my house and selling it for full price in one week and I couldn’t be happier. As a matter of fact it worked out so well that I asked Jeff to help me find a condo in the area that I wanted to be in and Jeff delivered once again finding me exactly what I was looking for which was a bungalow/condo. - Gillian Trowbridge
Property Purchase in Peterborough, ON | Jun 2021
I hired Jeff and his team to help me and my family find our first home. With it being my family's first home, I told Jeff I wanted to learn as much as I possibly can about the process, and he was amazing at teaching, explaining, and was extremely patient with all my questions and concerns. In today's market, everything was going for 100 grand over asking price and we got a little discouraged but Jeff reassured us that we would find the right house. I believe everything happens for a reason, but the house we closed on completely blew me away. Lots of property and a beautiful older country home with tons of tasteful updates. I know we wouldn't be where we are today without Jeff and his team. Highly recommend. - Ryan Rolfe

Property Purchase in Peterborough, ON | Jun 2021
Jeff and Katie were both phenomenal during our experience as first time home buyers. They were eager, prompt, professional, and very reassuring during the anxiety of trying to enter the housing market (especially when it’s a red hot seller’s!) We are beyond pleased with how smooth they made the entire process, and we definitely wouldn’t have found and secured our dream property without their knowledge and encouragement. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!! Wonderful people and fantastic service. 10/10! - Natasha
Property Sale in Peterborough, ON | Mar 2021
When we decided to list our house, it was the peak of the busy spring season. We met with several agents, but ultimately decided that we wanted to work with Jeff and his team. He quickly lived up to and exceeded our expectations, listing our house in record time to get it out there before the market became saturated. The proof is in the pudding: the house sold over asking the day we accepted offers! On top of that, he was a pleasure to work with. We’d highly recommend him to anyone selling in the Peterborough area! - Charise Dietrich

As a registered Real Estate Sales Representative, I recognize the importance of working with an agent who has expert knowledge of an area or a specific type real estate. My expertise is in Toronto and Durham. When selling our cottage/home on Upper Buckhorn Lake, in the Kawarthas, I knew we needed an agent with the knowledge of buying and selling cottage properties and connections with other agents in the area. With his expert knowledge and advice, we were able to sell our cottage/home very quickly and over asking. Jeff was amazing to work with and we would highly recommend him - Karyn Adams

Within 24 hour of being back on the market we had and offer and within 48 hours the house was sold firm for way more then we could have hoped for!

And you wont be disappointed with Jeff and his team A++++ ratings all the way! Thanks again Jeff ! - Eric R Mackhan

After many months of searching Lakefront properties with Jeff we finally found our dream. What i really appreciated about him was his attention to detail and it was as though he wasn't so concerned about making a sale but finding what we were looking for.If he didn't answer my calls he would return them in a timely manner. We not only found an amazing agent but after many conversations a friend as well. For anyone looking for a home in his area I highly recommend you contact him, he won't disappoint. - Andrew Maxwell

Jeff Sands is a great resource for finding waterfront properties in Eastern Ontario. He is a hard working, super positive yet pragmatic agent who goes the extra mile to find you want you want. I ended up buying a vacant lot in Prince Edward County after visiting countless homes on acreage. Jeff took the time to look at a wide spectrum of properties, a research project that involved countless home and property tours. In the end we are certain we got the best value for our dollar and Jeff made sure to negotiate right to the end. This guy is an awesome agent for anything waterfront in the Kawarthas and east to Kingston. - Ian Karleff

Anyone needing an honest and helpful agent to make a dream a reality should look Jeff Sands up. We were looking for a vacant land parcel and Jeff delivered. He connected us with our dream land and closed the deal within days of us seeing and telling him that the property was perfect for us. Dealing with Jeff was a honest and open approach and he delivered on his trustfulness and honesty. Integrity is what counts and Jeff delivered. Do not hesitate to give Jeff a call and at have him help you find your dream property. Timing in the real estate market comes down to what is available when you are looking - its called inventory. If your dream property is in the market of inventory - Jeff will connect you with it in an honest and integral manner. It worked for us and hopefully it will work for you! - Manny Danelon
