Jaakko Haapamäki

"We knew the professionalism of the broker, but he still exceeded all our expectations. Sold before the first showing for over asking price and during the summer holidays, so it couldn't have gone better for the client."

"Professional broker. Does not push the target. Had the answer to every question I asked. He was willing to solve if there was a problem. A professional in a service profession."

"Very professional, service-minded and polite guy. Also had a smile and humour in appropriate situations."

"It went well. Great brochure, fast sales process."

"We competed for a broker and chose Jaakko Haapamäki because of his convincing and calm demeanour. Jaakko handled the sale very well and the result was good."

"The sale was quick and the price was right."

"The whole process went very well! We chose a broker based on, among other things, previous good experiences. The service was smooth and the interaction was uncomplicated. To our surprise, the apartment sold immediately. Great job!"

"We think everything went well because we reached an agreement."

"The sale of the apartment was very fast and professional."

"Quick and professional preparation. One screen and the deal was done in one go! Everything went quickly after that."

- Håkan Hede

"Everything went smoothly, first and foremost. The deal was done in a couple of days, and it totally exceeded our expectations. Jaakko is very professional as a broker and does his job with a twinkle in his eye. Full marks!"

- Sini Shepstone

"Jaakko is a great guy and hard-working. Always at work and always available!"

- Erkki Maila

"Excellent and professional service. A big thank you to Jaakko for the good work and all the help!"

- Erika Mäkinen

"Jaakko and his team were superb. Great communication, efficient, got the job done, and our house sold at more than we were expecting. Hiring anyone other than Jaakko would be a mistake."

- Michael Richards

"Buying a home was quick and there was no price race/ballooning. In selling the home the agent had the courage to ask for a high price and we still went above and beyond and the deal was done quickly."

"Everything went very well and Jaakko handled the whole sales process with excellence and competence."

- Tom Ward

"Well done. Jaakko sold the apartment 2 times before the actual screening. Communication and keeping the seller informed was commendable. The styling of the apartment was successful and the video of the apartment was great. I can recommend and have already recommended Jaakko to many friends."

- Juha Väänänen

"Our apartment transaction was exceptional, as our own apartment was sold in November by Jaakko Haapamäki to the same family whose apartment we bought in January. However, there is no way we would have found each other without a good agent and marketing. I believe that both of us were pleased with the way Jaakko handled the transaction in a professional and elegant manner."

"Jaakko took care of and handled both the sale and my new home purchase in a very professional manner. Great brochures and pictures of the apartment for sale, plus a great video of the apartment I bought."

"Everything went very well. I asked to see the apartment before the first viewing and your agent was fine with it. I made an offer right away and the broker replied to my offer later that evening. I am very satisfied with the service I received. The broker was not able to attend the transaction, but the communication and the offer was incredibly fast. A big plus for follow-up contact."

- Jenni Muurinen

"Rumours had already said that Haapamäki&Katas is fast, and yet the speed of sales was a positive surprise. It was also nice to have a turnkey approach, where as a salesperson I didn't have to worry about anything, just trust the more competent hands."

- Suvi Joutsen

"Really great service in selling a home from start to finish. By service I mean superior performance and attention to detail. Hard to put into words their expertise. Thanks again!"

- Janne Mäki

"We can highly recommend Jaakko and Lauri's team. Professional, patient, understanding and full of new ideas. Well done!"

- Giedre Tabocchini

"We can warmly recommend! Very professional, reliable and good service. Our apartment sold before the first showing and we found the whole process straightforward and well managed. Many thanks to Jaakko."

- Minna Klockars

"I can highly recommend. Our apartment was sold before the first showing – the ad was online for only 24 hours and the offers started pouring in! The interior designer was gold and the photographer was a pro. As a fun and new bonus we also got a good-humoured and stylish presentation video. This is real modern real estate service, thank you for that. It's great that someone has finally updated to modern times. And Jaakko and Lauri: really nice, businesslike and honest guys on top of it all!"

- Piia Kankare

"Jaakko was extremely friendly, honest and efficient. The stylist also did a very good job. All in all, a perfect performance by the whole team!"

"Everything went smoothly; appointments on time, paperwork without errors etc."

"Jaakko did what he promised and a little bit more. Our home was sold before the first showing, at the best price per square metre ever in the building society. Working with Jaakko was effortless in every way – selling a home couldn't get any easier. Highly recommended!"

"We had an apartment for sale for a long time. There were always visitors but no offers. We changed the agent to Jaakko Haapamäki and the apartment went before the first showing. I think the decisive difference was that the first agent was the presenter of the apartment, Jaakko knew how to sell. Thank you for that!"

"From the very first meeting, I got a very professional and knowledgeable impression of the broker, which continued until the transaction. A really good customer experience and a great end result. Our apartment was sold very quickly and at a good price. Thanks again to Jaakko!"

- Teemu Niemi

"The duo Haapamäki & Katas together with the interior designer and photographer did a really good job in the sales project of our house. The photos, videos and presentation texts were very good. The sales work was active and the pleasant co-operation led to finding a suitable buyer quickly."

"Everything went very well. The property was not the easiest to sell, but I think the agent went above and beyond expectations – the property sold surprisingly quickly without any adjustments."

"Jaakko has now sold four of our properties and we have bought one from him. Everything has gone well each time; the apartments have almost always sold after the first viewing. Jaakko always answers messages immediately, no matter what day it is, no matter what time of day it is. We have also received advice on buying an apartment, although he has not been the agent in those transactions. A true professional – we have not had to think about who to call when we needed to sell the apartment."

- Riitta Pivo

"Everything went perfectly as before. This was the fourth apartment Jaakko sold us (we also bought this one from him a couple of years ago)."

"I was impressed by the broker's very good professionalism and pleasant demeanour, which I would be happy to share more about."

"Everything was handled in a very professional and hassle-free manner."

"We were customers of Jaakko's, both as sellers and buyers. Everything went very professionally, efficiently and, for us, without any hassle. Jaakko listened to our wishes and fulfilled them beyond our expectations. We found our dream home and therefore did not need a broker for a while, but we would recommend the Haapamäki & Katas team to our friends without reservation!"

- Eeva-Kaisa Schmidt

"The guy had a great grip on the job and didn't focus on unnecessary sucking up, which is a very pleasant trait in a broker – you get tired of those suck-ups pretty quickly. Special mention for a YouTube video of Jaakko sitting in a hot tub. The guy's got attitude."

"The first showing had several viewers. The broker let us watch in peace and then answered our questions. We were given a brochure and the contact details of the broker. We were not asked for contact information, unlike almost all the other shows we had been to. I thought this was a good practice. The next day we called the agent and asked to see the property again. This was arranged on the day we had requested and this time we also visited the other areas of the house, which were only accessible with a key. The agent offered to show us the house's sauna rooms later on, which we could not access at the time. We then received all the necessary documents about the company by email. The following weekend we made an offer and after a few exchanges of offers we agreed the deal. Communication and scheduling went well."

"Absolutely fantastic estate agency from start to finish, as well as before and after the move. My family and I were evacuated for a little over a week, so we had to deliver our belongings to a few different places for storage. When we started running out of space and I casually mentioned it to Lauri Katas, Lauri said "there is a free corner in our storage, you can take the rest of your stuff there". I didn't even get all the stuff out on the day of the move, but that didn't bother the Haapamäki & Katas duo at all. They even threw a bottle of champagne in our hands when we picked up our old junk a week after the move! Stylish real estate agency from start to finish, so we'll be back if we ever move again. A warm recommendation!"

- Edu Kehäkettunen

"The advertisers' sales pitch "leave everything to us" was absolutely right this time. At one point, when I was wondering how the sale of the house was going, the broker, as if he had received a message by telepathy, contacted me and told me about the prospective buyers' movements."

"Before the sale of the apartment was transferred to Bo LKV, it was held by another broker for a longer period of time. The contrast between the previous broker's activities and Bo's was like night and day. Jaakko handled the whole process from the appraisal to the sale so much more professionally and smoothly that one could sum up the thoughts as "How can other brokers do well in a market where Bo does things, in a word, exactly right?"
