Jonas contacted me after he learned that I was likely going to want to sell or rent out my house. He didn't stalk me, but rather called to offer his services and he left it at that until I was ready. Once I let him know I was open to it he walked me through the process, I am an inexperienced seller. He convinced me with comps that the market was ready and that I could make a profit if I put in some elbow grease and hired some work done. He came to do a thorough home inspection to help me pre...

As the buyer?s agent, Jonas helped us purchasing a rental property in Gilbert. The process to close a short sell house was quite complicated, and it took several months. We, as Canadian, are thousands miles away from Phoenix. So far, we have neither been in Arizona, and nor have met with Jonas in person. However, the property we bought was smoothly closed in later February, and was rented out short after. Phone call and email exchange are the only ways we communicated with Jonas. He might not p...

Jonas took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for when I was searching for a home. Despite being rejected on several deals due to cash offers from other buyers, he continued to be patient and positive with me and suggested listings that he knew would interest me. In fact, he suggested one home that wasn't even on my list and when I walked in, I knew this was it. Sold! I would and have recommended Jonas to others that are thinking about real estate purchases. His property... More
Jonas is a very hard working professional who is dedicated to his clients. He is truly concerned about his client's needs and goals, and is able to find a fantastic deal. He negotiated on my behalf when we ran into some snags and always quickly responded to my questions / concerns thoroughly and gave me the information needed to make the decisions to move forward. In the deal, Jonas exceeded my expectation from a Realtor. Jonas is an excellent person and does outstanding work. He not onl... More
Jonus helped us bought three properties, two of them closed in 2012. He provided us full services with free charge. He also was patient to answer all of our questions. We were lucky to have an agent like him.
Jonas helped me to purchased a rental property recently. He is very knowledgeable and quick response. I think he is different from many realtors in that, he is not just trying to make a sale and earn his commission, regardless if the deal is the best to the client. He cares about his clients very much. After I bought the property, he also helped me to find a reliable man to repair the house. Personally, I like his honesty and integrity most.
A friend of mine from our church in Ottawa, Canada referred him to us when we started to look for the investment properties in Phoenix area on July 2011. Since then we have used Jonas to buy two investment properties at Gilbert. We are so lucky to have him as our agent, he is very knowledgeable, honest, and a hard worker. Since we are in Canada, he helped us in every aspect from the start of the property hunting to the time the key of the property handed over to Property Management Company. Whe... More
At the end of 2010 we were new to the country, and looling for our own home. Jonas has been most accommodating in our requests, and has gone that extra mile to assist us in understanding the laws, and procedures in purchasing our home and two other properties. Whilst leaving the final decisions to us, he has guided us, advised us and has been, and still is, so helpful - we could not have found a more honest, ethical agent who has integrity of the highest regard. We have no hesitation in r... More
I asked for an agent referral from the rental office where I wanted to buy. they recommended Jonas. As we were walking the property 2 separate women who lived there came up to him and hugged him. This was a good sign. I bought a unit he suggested and he handled it perfectly. It worked so well I bought a 2nd property. Since I live out of state, I never saw the unit. He handled everything; again perfectly. I recommended him to my son, who bought a unit from from out of state. Same result..
Jonas helped us secure a banked owned condo to be used as a rental in 2010. He guided us thru the process every step of the way. One year later we had a lease expire and he helped me rewrite the entire new lease. He also offered to help us find a renter if we neede help.We have recommended him to friends of ours.
I used Jonas for my Buyer's Agent on two separate investment transactions and was very happy with him. He is well connected and very knowledgeable of market conditions. He gave me sound advice on which properties were a good value and which ones I should avoid. He is honest, ethical and a hard worker. I also found him to be very responsive. To top it off, he even found me a high quality tenant for one of the properties that was vacant! I will definitely use Jonas for future deals.
Jonas has assisted us in the purchase and sale of five homes. Jonas has a great understanding of the greater Phoenix market. We are foreign buyers; Jonas took the extra time to understand and explain potential roadblocks and guide us around them. We continue to refer Jonas to family and friends. Bradley & Kim Gingerich
I have worked with Jonas Funston on several occasions and he truly understands customer service. Not only is he educated and a great negotiator, he goes the extra mile to make sure the home buying process is smooth and enjoyable. I have done several deals with him in as many years and I plan on only using Jonas as my realtor for as long as he is in the business.
We are cross-border real estate investors. We were new to real estate investment at that time and a friend referred Jonas to us. Jonas viewed a few properties for us before we put an offer on one. For each house he viewed, he sent us a video and provided his honest opinions. He even gave us a rough number on how much it would cost to put the house on the rental market. The entire purchase process went very smoothly under his guidance. After the closing, he even took care of the repair/fix ... More
Several years ago I was looking for a property in Phoenix from my Canadian home and I through good fortune was put in contact with Jonas . I was impressed with his honesty, enigmatic personality, good humour and his commitment to finding a place for me. He never failed to respond to my questions and concerns quickly and always pointed out cons as well as pros on a property. I purchased a fabulous property through him and he went on to find an incredible deal for my sister and her husband to pu... More
I am from out of the state and wanted to purchase a rental property. Jonas lined up the property, management, repairs and closing. The property has been rented since and has yielded a great return. Jonas is extremely efficient and responds to all requests in a timely and professional manner. I highly recommend Jonas as a local expert that can find a property that suits your needs.
Jonas is a solid guy who goes the extra mile to get things done for his clients. I have been very impressed with his knowledge of the industry, work ethic and follow through. Use him, you will be very pleased you did.
