About Aaron Jones

Thank you for checking out my profile.  My name is Aaron Jones and I am the Broker/Owner of RE/MAX Lakes Realty.  I specialize in lakeshore home sales on West Lake Okoboji, East Lake Okoboji, Big Spirit, Lake Minnewashta, Lower Gar Lake, and Upper Gar Lake.   Below you will find over 150 testimonials on Zillow.
I have been selling real estate since 2012. I am a lifelong resident of Lake Okoboji and my family has been in construction for about 60 years. I grew up in construction and understand construction costs, and this has helped me immensely in adding value for my clients. Prior to selling real estate, I managed a furniture manufacturing facility in Milford, IA. I learned a lot about lean manufacturing and have brought many of those concepts into our business here, mainly focused on efficient technologies in real estate. I have a great team of 24 agents that work together to find buyers for our clients. I have 2 incredible employees, and also have a technology business partner in India, and we have been developing real estate management and paperless transaction management solutions, along with our own proprietary electronic signature service (www.signfast.com and www.leadcity.com) and we use these solutions daily in our office. I have built 5 homes since I was 26, 4 of them being lake homes, and I invest everything I have in real estate. 
 
I’m very proud of our agents in so many ways, but the success is partially defined by the numbers. In 2020, our office closed more Dickinson county transactions than any other office, and in Dickinson county, we beat all other offices in Sales volume by over $20,000,000. We know how to market; we know how to treat people, and we know how to do the right thing, regardless of dollar signs. Lastly, since 2015, I have closed more transactions than any other agent in the MLS in Dickinson county, and I’m proud to say that I was #1 in sales volume in 2020 for the entire MLS. When you hire me to sell, you will get ethical, professional service with expertise in online marketing, social media marketing, and web lead generation, which will produce a buyer for your home.  When you hire me to buy, you will have someone in your corner that will find you that perfect home, even if that means sending out mailers or contacting owners through facebook to find you that special place.

Terrace Park

Terrace Park is located in Brown's Bay on West Lake, Okoboji. It is one of the largest public beaches on West Lake and has entertained beach goers for many years. Next to Terrace Park is Boys Town out of Omaha, Nebraska. I remember as a kid spending entire days at terrace park, either riding bicycle or taking a moped (yes a moped) down to meet with friends and playing king on the dock. In 2010, the morning after "the storm", Terrace Park was carnage. Boat were stacked on top of each other. Trees were uprooted, and hoists were tossed around. Boats and other water craft were found in Terrace Park that belonged to owners on the North end of West Lake.

Okoboji Boat Works

Okoboji Boat Works in West Lake Okoboji

Okoboji Boat Works is home to "The Fish Shack" and "The Inconvenience Store". Formerly a marina of thriving boat sales since 1890, OBW now offers up many different rentals, a 24 hour gas dock, excursion boats, and more. I remember the days as a child of fishing for crappie and blue gill here and along the docks of Smith's Bay. Though the scenery has changed, the outstanding fishing has not.

"The Harbor"

The harbor is a man made inlet located on the north end of West Lake. A board walk surrounds the harbor and this is one of the most tranquil parts of the lake. Homeowners in the harbor have a more affordable way to have access to West Lake, and still get to enjoy the clean waters West Lake has to offer. Homes in the Harbor typically range from about $350k to as much as $700k.

Testimonials

My husband and I had been looking for quite awhile for property, but either we couldn't agree on one, or it was way out of our price range. Tom contacted Aaron, he showed us this property - long story short, I had a meltdown (which Aaron endured quite graciously), took the next few days to look at the potential of the property as opposed to the present reality, and we decided to purchase it. Aaron was patient, he was kind, and we believe he worked hard for us to secure the property for a fair price and in a timely manner! Aaron answered all our questions, and even some we didn't know to ask, and was very professional the whole time. I hope he will return when the renovations are complete to see what can be done with a diamond in the rough!

Tom and Crystal Straub, VERY satisfied customers

The economic collapse had caused great challenges in selling my lake home. My home on East Lake had been on the market for nearly 4 years when Aaron Jones took over the listing. He was able to close a sale on the home within a few months. I believe Aaron's knowledge of the market, excellent communications skills,and passion for the lakes community and clientele set him apart. The experience he provided for both myself and the buyer was exceptional. If you need a realtor in the Lakes region I would highly recommend Aaron Jones.

Our transaction with Boji Remax went very smoothly despite the fact that we live in the Des Moines area and the sellers lived in the Sioux Falls area. Aaron did a great job working with our schedule for home viewing opportunities and then kept us connected through the purchase process even though we were a few hours away. Everything considered, Aaron was extremely helpful with our first lake cabin purchase and the process went as well as we could have expected

The home buying process can be extremely stressful and time consuming. Aaron always got right back to us or answered our calls. He was an excellent source of information and had wonderful resources and contacts to help us through the entire process. He always reassured us that everything was on the right track. He is very knowledgable, genuine and trustworthy. We would reccomend him to anyone looking at property in Okoboji

We would very much recommend Aaron Jones as your REMAX Realtor. He was the very first person we met when we moved to Spirit Lake, and he immediately made us feel welcome and immediately went to work for us. We could not have asked for a better Realtor to help us find our home. He was so kind and patient during a very stressful time. He went above and beyond to be available and to answer our questions. He was honest, forthright, and professional. He even gave us advice when we asked, on selling our house where we previously lived. Thank you again Aaron for being so kind and for helping us to find our new home! We so appreciate all you did for us

I appreciate what you are doing. I purchased a house without a realtor the other day, and I am lost, so I REALLY value what you are doing.

We purchased a house on East Lake Okoboji that was listed with him. Later, we listed parents property with him and it sold quicker then we thought. He is profesional and helpful.

Aaron did a great job in helping us find what we were looking for in just one visit. Emails were returned promptly and he was very flexible with appointment times.
