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.

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.

Pike's Point State Park

Pike's Point State Park in West Lake Okoboji

Pike's Point is located at 15973 213th Ave, Spirit Lake, IA on beautiful West Lake Okoboji. It is one of the largest parks in the Iowa Great Lakes, and provides for all kinds of activities including fishing, swimming, bird watching etc. This park also has a rest room, and a beach. If coming by boat, one wants to be careful as the point extends far into the lake, and there is a warning buoy roughly 300 feet from the point of shore. In 2010, many trees here were uprooted because of some severe straight line winds during the storm that reaked havoc through the Iowa Great Lakes.

Herman is the best in the business I have been buying and selling houses in DFW for over 20 years and I have never had someone so detailed, informative, professional and results driven. He got more then I was asking for my house and sold it within a week. I will never use another realtor.

After another realtor failed to sell my home, Herman sold it in one weekend! He is extremely knowledgeable and strategic. I definitely recommend using Herman.

Herman possesses a knowledge of the local market second to none. After discussing the market and housing trends we were able to list and sell within a weekend. I believe that was entirely due to Herman’s recommendations in staging the house, excellent photographer, and spot in pricing. My wife and I enjoyed Herman’s honest and accurate advice throughout the process. If we ever need to buy or sell a home I would definitely use Herman again!

As first time home buyers, my husband and I lucked out when we found Herman Holt during our search for a real estate agent. We combed through various websites for reviews before finding Herman. Our goal was to ensure that we found someone that would help us find the home of our dreams and provide us the honest feedback we would need to make a sound financial decision for the biggest purchase of our lives. Other satisfied home buyers highly recommended Herman as a 380 corridor expert and trusted confidant. Herman not only lived up to this description but he went above and beyond to help us buy our home. Herman helped us though every step of the process and he was willing to work with us 7 days a week if needed to make sure we secured our home. Thanks to Herman, buying a home was a smooth and relatively easy process. Although we have already closed on our home, Herman remains a resource and trusted adviser to us.

Mr. Holt is a great realtor! He is very knowledgeable, and takes the time to educate his clients. He keeps his clients best interests at heart during each phase of the process. Mr. Holt helped to make the transaction of both buying and selling a home extremely smooth. I don't plan on moving anytime soon, but if I needed a realtor again, he would definitely be the first person I call!

If you are looking to buy or sell a home, look no further than Herman Holt! Herman is an impeccable realtor who is well-versed in realty, is GREAT with communication, has tremendous marketing techniques, and best of all, knows how to get the job done! We could not have had a better experience with Herman. He made a very stressful situation, stress-free, which is quite hard to believe. For all your realty needs, contact Herman Holt!

When we contacted Herman, he came to our house ready to answer our questions about staying at our house or move to another one. He helped us sale the house and also found our new home, he was there when we needed him and helped us through out the transition. If you are planning of buying or selling your house he is the person to contact. You will not only find a Realtor but a friendship.
