ABOUT JAY

FRIEDMAN

I am a California native, born in Southern California, but raised in Roseville, CA where I graduated from Oakmont High School. In 1995, I moved to Reno, NV to attend the University of Nevada and prior to graduation, in 1998, my wife and I got married. I graduated in 1999 having earned a BSBA with a focus on Logistics Management. After graduation, my wife and I moved to Southern California for work where I was the Sales Manager for a national media company named Source Interlink (“Primedia” back then). At Primedia, I was the Sales Manager for "Import Tuner" magazine, and a salesman for many different national automotive enthusiast publications.  In 2003, my wife and I decided it was time to improve our quality of life. We moved back to Roseville to be near our families, and to start our own family. My biggest passions, next to my family and friends, are working with my great clients, traveling, playing with cars, and just plain enjoying this great gift called Life!

Open up a home search and you'll see them. Listings that have been on the market for two months. Three. Some longer. Most buyers scroll right past them, assuming something’s wrong with the house. But that instinct could be costing you, since the longer a home sits, the more motivated the seller usually gets. Where Some Buyers Are Finding Better Deals If affordability has been your #1 hurdle to buying, here’s a surprisingly simple strategy that could help you finally get your foot in the door. Start with the homes that have been sitting the longest. That’s often where the best deals are. Here’s why. Data from Realtor.com shows there’s a connection between longer time on the market and lower sales prices. Basically, the longer a house sits, the more likely it is that the seller will reduce the price (see graph below):

A lot of people who want to move are telling themselves the same thing: " Maybe I'll just wait until later this year once things calm down ." While waiting sounds like a good plan, there's something worth knowing before you decide. Rates aren’t expected to change much, so if that’s the #1 reason you’re waiting, it may not pay off. And there may be other things you miss out on in the meantime. Historically, Summer is one of the strongest seasons of the year for both buyers and sellers. And if you delay your move until Fall or Winter, some of those opportunities may already be fading. Buyers: Fresh Inventory Is Your Real Summer Advantage One of the biggest frustrations buyers have faced over the past few years has been a lack of affordable options . Maybe you’ve run into that yourself: You find a house you like, but it's out of your budget. You find something in your budget, but you don’t like it. Or worse, nothing interesting hits the market for weeks. Historically, Summer helps with that. Looking at data from the last few years, Summer months consistently bring more sellers into the market than later in the year. And that gives buyers a real window of fresh choices. According to Realtor.com , any given Summer month typically sees about 32% more fresh options than the average month from September-December.

A few years ago, sellers could get away with saying "no" to just about everything. No repairs. No concessions. No negotiation. If buyers wanted the house, they pretty much had to take it on the seller's terms. But now that inventory’s grown, negotiations are becoming a normal part of the process again. That's why one of the most important things sellers need to understand right now is this: The goal isn't to “win” every negotiation. Sometimes, it’s worth meeting buyers where they are to get a deal done, fast. One example? Helping with a buyer's closing costs. Let’s break that down, so you know what to expect if it comes up in your sale. What Are Buyer Closing Costs? Closing costs are the extra expenses buyers pay on top of their down payment when they purchase a home. Freddie Mac gives some examples : Loan origination fees Appraisal and inspection costs Title and attorney fees Survey fees and more Typically, buyer closing costs range from about 2% to 5% of the home’s purchase price. So, on the typical $400,000 home, that could mean anywhere from $8,000 to $20,000 out of pocket. And in today’s affordability-challenged market, that upfront cash can be a major hurdle for some buyers – even if they can comfortably afford the monthly mortgage payment itself. That’s why more people are asking sellers for help. And More Sellers Are Saying “Yes” According to the latest data from Zillow , 67% of sellers reported paying some or all of the buyer’s closing costs in 2025 (see chart below) :

TESTIMONIALS

I haven't sold or bought a home in over 35 years, I had no idea who to talk to about selling my home. Jay was recommended to me by Shelby Elias. Right away I saw that Jay was our man and he never did disappoint.  In fact he went far above and beyond what I was expecting and my expectations were high. I would recommend Jay and his team to anyone needing a realtor. Thank you Jay, you made a stressful time seem effortless.

Jay did an outstanding job with helping us buy and sell our home. In a tough sellers market, he was able to make our offer competitive and ultimately allow our family to be close together. He also went out of his way to coordinate a full remodel of our prior home, which was even located outside his service area! This was the main reason we were able to sell our home for 130k over asking price. Jay definitely goes above and beyond for his clients. One his best qualities is that he is extremely responsive and always picks up the phone or texts back.  We would absolutely recommend him for all your real estate needs!
