5592 Little Fawn Court

The property had been available for 153 active days by the time the deal came together, and that history became the buyer’s leverage. The final price of $1,825,000 landed $163,000 below the $1,988,000 asking price — 91.8% of list.

Time on Market Is Leverage

Our Strategy & Approach

A listing that has been sitting for five months tells you something the asking price does not. By the time this Westlake Village home came together, it had been on the market for 153 active days, and the offer was built around that history rather than around the number on the flyer. The purchase closed $163,000 under the published price, at 91.8% of list, in a market where most buyers were paying full freight.

“I just finished a set of transactions with Gary where we sold our beautiful home in Agoura and bought a fabulous new place in Westlake. My wife and I were a little skeptical that we would be able to make things work because the deal kind of needed the stars to align on both sides to make things happen. However, through the whole process Gary was an incredible resource and his encouragement from start to finish got us into this beautiful house that we are beyond thrilled with.

I was very impressed with Gary in our first home purchase in 2014 and my respect for his knowledge, thoroughness, and tenacity has only increased after our most recent transaction. He has a really great eye for the details of construction and materials in a house, and is the best realtor that i’ve ever worked with when it comes to bouncing remodeling/renovation/upgrade ideas off of. He has a really great intuition on price/value for homes and was invaluable to us when evaluating what to offer. I’d highly recommend him to any one looking to buy or sell their house. And as a side note, the photography he did of our house was really top notch.”

In The Words Of Gary’s Clients

Success Stories

“I loved working with Gary. He's honest, he does what he says he's going to do on time without excuses or complaints, and he's so good at his job. If he doesn't know something, and that rarely happens, he'll find out for you. Gary Jacobs is one of a kind. Do yourself a favor, work with Gary Jacobs. I can't recommend him too highly.”

Arlan B.Calabasas

“Had a great experience with Gary as our agent selling our home in Westlake Village. His marketing materials from photos to videos to 3D views were top notch and his audience targeting was spot on. He was tireless with open houses and always gave us good advise on topics ranging from staging to pricing. Highly recommended.”

Bill V.Westlake Village

“Wish I could add more stars!!! Gary is down to earth and so professional. Went right to work on the sale . His pictures of the property were so artistic I couldn't believe how great my house looked. The house was ready and listed and SOLD IN A WEEK. Enough sad? Uh NO. HOUSE SOLD FOR 135k OVER ASKING!!! He and is wife Lisa are the perfect team. Call them first and your search is ended. Thanks again”

Glenn M.Canoga Park

“Gary and Lisa are amazing. It was a pleasure working with them for a second home purchase for our daughter. Always answered our questions/concerns promptly and efficiently. Would highly recommend them for your next real estate needs. Gary worked as our realtor for most of 2017 as my husband and I looked for homes in the Agoura/Calabasas/Westlake Village area. We instantly felt a connection with Gary, as he is friendly and relaxed, as well as professional and extremely knowledgeable about the real estate market. During our house hunt, he always made himself available. He was patient with us, and truly helped find the right home for us, instead of trying to push us into a sale. He gave great guidance and advice, and showed us many properties proactively. When we were finally ready to make an offer, Gary walked us through every step and helped us get an incredible deal on our house. We couldn't be happier with our experience working with him, and highly recommend him!”

Holly K.Oak Park

“Gary was great to work with as a buyer for a single family home in the Westlake Village, CA area. He is always quick to respond, has lots of great contacts in the area and continues to be available for support even after the deal closes. My wife and I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend him.”

Gavin M.Westlake Village

“Gary has been my go to realtor for over 12 years, including 50+ transactions. As professional investors, we depend on getting the most out of every sale, and the agent we chose makes a big difference. Gary is responsive, direct and hands on through every step of the process. His marketing skills almost always generate multiple offers, and we trust his negotiation skills to net the best price. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Gary Jacobs!”

Noga L.Woodland Hills

“Gary was top notch. He helped us find and buy a home in Encino, CA. We bought remotely; Gary streamlined the process and did many video tours so we could see the condo we were buying. He kept us informed, and helped us at every stage. Great experience and we will definitely use Gary again!”

Melissa M.Encino

“We were first time home buyers and unfamiliar with the Westlake/Thousand Oaks area. A family friend recommended Gary and we couldn't have been happier with our decision to use him to purchase our first home. Gary went with us to look at homes for several hours on various weekend days and provided his expertise on the different neighborhoods, many of which we were unfamiliar with. Gary was always available by phone when we needed him and was able to answer all of our questions regarding the process. When we eventually found our future home and were prepared to make an offer, Gary helped us every step of the way. He had worked with the seller's agent before and we believe this helped our offer stand out. We are now all moved in and absolutely love the house and neighborhood. Gary made a daunting experience feel more manageable and took away a lot of the stress. We would recommend any first-time home buyers go with Gary when they are ready to find a real estate agent!”

Joel G.Thousand Oaks

“If you are looking to buy or sell a house, Gary is your guy. Gary has a great pulse of the housing market trends, especially in the Conejo Valley area which is where we were looking to buy a home. From the start, Gary sent us a link to create an account for a real-estate portal so he could send us MLS listings directly. What an awesome way to get the latest listings. He was also happy to meet me at any open houses I found myself through Zillow/Redfin. He would meet me on the fly whenever I mentioned there was something I wanted to check out. I loved walking through the homes and hearing Gary's opinions and ideas for what the homes potential could truly be. Also, hearing the honest input about the cost of the homes and what he predicted they would actually sell for. And let me tell ya, as I watched homes sell that we'd seen, he totally nailed it every time!! We eventually found a home that we wanted to put an offer in on and it was such a fast and easy process. Most of the signatures were done via DocuSign. I loved that process because it was so easy! Gary helped us draft the perfect offer and keep lines of communication open with the sellers realtor while they accepted multiple offers. In the end we ended up getting the home and I truly believe it was because of Gary's constant (not pushy) communication. We couldn't be more thrilled. Thank you so much Gary & team!!!”

Anna W.Westlake Village

“We brought Gary and Lisa in early to determine what was needed to get the house ready for top dollar in the area we were in. We had already remodeled the interior. He made recommendations, put us in contact with contractors, and we ended up selling for full price on the first day. Actually, more than full price... We then needed to move quickly and he was able to get us into a wonderful house quickly. If you're looking for results give them a call. And... get ready to move quickly ;)”

Joe M.Moorpark

“Gary was very knowledgeable and professional. We live out of town and had to sell my mother's condo. Since we couldn't always be there to let in painters or movers, Gary made himself available to take care of these things. We interviewed a few other realtors and just felt like we were just another client. Gary and Lisa took the time to get to know our situation and seemed to actually care about helping us and selling our condo. Gary knew the market in the area we were selling and helped us make the best decisions on price and marketing. I highly recommend Gary and Lisa Jacobs.”
