D202 Linda & Tony Gero
Selling a condo that has been in the family for 40+ years was not an easy task, especially when you live in the northeast.
Jim was able to guide us through the entire process. He knew the answer to all of our questions and made the process as easy as possible.
His computer skills in emailing forms to be signed electronically still amazes me. The whole transaction was flawless.
If you are considering selling your condo, please do not hesitate to contact Jim. You will not regret it!!!!

D204 Michael and Richard Hilleary
Jim Keenan was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the process of selling our family condo in San Remo.
Though we are several states away, he made the entire process seamless through his patience, professionalism, and availability.
Jim made something that should have been difficult rather easy with his constant attention to detail and great communication. We can truly say he went above and beyond, both professionally and personally, to make sure everything was in order at the property prior to the closing. We cannot thank Jim enough for his hard work and dedication and would highly recommend his services for anyone in the Boca Raton market!

D514 Maria and Robert DiRaimo
It was truly a pleasure to work with Jim Keenan.
His attention to detail made for a worry free and smooth transaction. He is unobtrusive in his manner and gives all the attention required from the showing of the units to the closure.
Jim made sure every aspect of the sales process was taken care of, in fact Jim brought to our attention things we had not thought of in order to proceed with a smooth transition. He always kept us informed and clearly answered every question I had from start to finish.
He is very patient and extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of realty.This was particularly important to me since I was not present in San Remo and a remote sale can be stressful.
His personalized service made me feel valued as a client. If you need a realtor, Jim is the best and we have recommended him to many friends and family

Mr. Jim Keenan has recently represented us in purchasing our condo at San Remo.
Thanks to his efforts and vast experience, the transaction was executed smoothly and swiftly. When it comes to San Remo (the best kept secret on A1A between Spanish River and East Palmetto) he is the best Realtor to deal with as he knows all aspects of the property.
We have nothing more to add but to express our gratitude and praise of Jim.

Jim,
I wanted to thank you for all the time and effort you put into the sale of our home.
I appreciate that you were knowledgeable about the current market value of homes in the area and thrilled that you were able to get close to our asking price.
I thought this process would be difficult since I lived out of state during the sale, but because you were always easy to reach and returned my calls so promptly, everything went quite smoothly.
You were always professional, dependable, and kept me informed every step of the way. That meant a lot to me and my family.
You were a pleasure to work with, and I will certainly recommend Jim Keenan to anyone who is interested in selling or buying a house.
Sincerely,
Joan Kay

V559 Ron Harris Menu
If I had to describe Jim Keenan in one sentence, I would say that he is the consummate professional with a sincere and dedicated personal approach.
Jim handled the sale of my 95-year-old mother’s condo in Boca Raton. He was extremely efficient and proactive from day one, which was particularly helpful to me living in Connecticut and trying to assist my mother in Florida.
He always gave excellent advice and was willing to do whatever it took to help stage the apartment as best as possible, find the right buyer, and perform way beyond the call of duty once the deal was in place to help facilitate my mother’s move to her new residence.
I would not hesitate recommend Jim Keenan to anyone in need of an excellent realtor.

D220 Alan & Mary Jane Christman Menu
Jim,
Thank you for your extensive efforts in the sale of Diano 220, for overcoming multiple obstacles and for making it a positive experience for us.
We know you to be a serious and knowledgabble person because of the time we served with you on the San Remo Board of Directors. Your approach and the sale of our property far exceeded that of any past home sale that we have experienced.
You created an appealing listing on the web, made yourself available for all showings, and took prospective buyers on tour of the 13 acres and beachfront helped potential buyers become familiar with what San Remo has to offer
And also appreciated your help with unexpected problems such as moving of our oversized furniture.
The title company you recommended for the closing was thorough and efficient.
Thanks for covering all the details and keeping us up to date on events.
If you are ever need a reference,, we are available and would be pleased to recommend you.
Sincerely,
Mary Jane and Alan Christman

M528 Diane and Tom Taylor Menu
Dear Jim,
Tom and I would like to thank you again for all your help with the sale of our rental condo. You were able to make a potentially difficult long-distance process, go smoothly, and as stress free as possible!
We never imagined that our condo would sell in one day! This was the best news of all.
It is a distinct advantage that you actually live in San Remo yourself. It is more convenient for you to show a unit in our beautiful complex, as a resident there, rather than an outside broker. This translates to more showings, and more accurate information for buyers.
I would highly recommend Jim Keenan's services to anyone in San Remo looking to sell their unit.
The level of professional service that we received far exceeded our previous dealings with real estate agents. We believe that you would do a great job for any client, wherever they have a listing. It was truly a pleasure
working with you!
Thank you for all your hard work.
Sincerely,
Tom and Diane Taylor

C507 Angela Marchi Menu
I recently sold a condo in Boca Raton. After interviewing several real estate agents, I chose Jim Keenan to be our realtor.
Jim worked tirelessly to show the unit, follow up on leads, and keep me informed. He was always the epitome of professionalism and his advice during the process was always sound. Jim quickly sold the condo..very close to asking price!
The closing process was seamless! I would highly recommend Jim represent you whether you are the buyer or the seller...you won't find better!!

C507 Bob Weidner Menu
When it was time to sell my home, I didn't hesitate to contact Jim Keenan!
He did an outstanding job developing the comps, taking the pictures, and presenting the unit to prospective buyers.
It didn't take long before we had a very viable buyer and the closing process was painless. Since I was no longer in the area, Jim took full control of the sales process and kept me very well informed.
He is extremely professional and very knowledgeable about the market. I highly recommend Jim to sell your home or represent you to find a new one!
You won't go wrong!
