About Jesse Kern

I have lived in Des Moines, Iowa since 2006 and have been selling real estate for eight years. I used to travel Iowa selling newspaper subscriptions and owned my own residential and commercial cleaning service as I started selling real estate. I enjoy working out, singing, composing music and playing the piano (I have a degree in Musical Arts, Piano from Oklahoma Baptist University). I love working with sellers and buyers, aiding them to realize their real estate goal and dreams! It is satisfying to me to assist people in building wealth through real estate. Whether I'm marketing your property or negotiating your deal, I will walk the extra mile for you. I know communication is core to a successful business endeavor; I will listen to you and aid you to fulfill your heartfelt real estate desires. I love people and enjoy quality relationships with my clients based on appreciation, integrity, and trust. Whether you are purchasing, selling, or investing, I will ensure you have the support you need to make intelligent, desirable decisions. Gladly serving the Des Moines metro. Call me today!

Working with Jesse was such a great experience! He arranged showings remotely before we came to town and dedicated his full time when arrived, knowing that we needed to maximize our time viewing properties. He pre-arranged all the showings we requested and then arranged new showings on the fly when we expanded our search. He was incredibly responsive to our requests and made the whole process of buying less stressful. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to move into our new home without a hitch. Wed absolutely recommend Jesse to anyone looking for an agent who really cares.

I had a great experience working with Jesse; he was very professional, knowledgeable and easy to work with. It was my first time buying, he guided me through the process; got me out of one property and then I found a better one that was in great condition, and had tons of potential. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a house!

Jesse was great in helping us build a home that would be the best fit for our family in a price range that was right for us! He was always available when I had questions and made the process as easy as possible. He had in depth knowledge of property and the entire purchasing process. We would recommend Jesse to anyone looking to buy their first, next or even their 20th home!!

Jesse Kern was our Realtor for the purchase of our Iowa home, from the moment we met he was courteous, knowledgeable, and willing to answer any concerns and questions we had. Jesse went above and beyond what was expected of him, he kept us informed every step of the way as to the progress of this purchase. I had concerns about the number of dogs I could have, he took the time to call and make sure there would be no restrictions. Jesse also referred a few contractors who were just as great, anything I asked of him he would come through. I would highly recommend him to anyone thinking of buying or selling a home. Thank you Jesse, for the professional manner in which you took care of us, we would definitely do business with him again.
