West Palm Beach Real Estate Agent Receives 2026 ThreeBestRated® Award for Client-Focused Approach

Loodmy Jacques of The Jacques Team has received the 2026 ThreeBestRated® Award for real estate excellence in West Palm Beach, marking recognition of nearly two decades building a practice centered on client education and white-glove service rather than transactional volume. The award arrives as Jacques’s team sells approximately 120 homes annually while maintaining over 300 five-star Google reviews – a combination reflecting both production capacity and consistent client satisfaction.

Jacques entered real estate at age 19 through what he characterizes as “pure luck.” While seeking part-time work during college, he walked into a real estate office that suggested obtaining a real estate license instead of traditional employment. “I quickly realized that this business is a bit intimidating for any buyer or seller that does not do this every day,” Jacques recalls. That observation became the foundation for Jacques’s service philosophy. Rather than positioning himself as a salesperson, he established an educational and advisory role focused on helping clients make informed decisions aligned with their long-term interests. “My main role would be as a guide, as an educator, and making sure that I help buyers and sellers make the right decision because if they make the wrong decision, it could be a very costly one,” he explains.

The Jacques Team’s client process begins with comprehensive education rather than immediate property tours. Buyer consultations cover insurance implications, HOA regulations, property tax trajectories, and market dynamics that affect monthly payments beyond principal and interest. For sellers, initial meetings focus on understanding motivations, property uniqueness, recent sales data, and buyer expectations before discussing pricing strategy. “Your first two weeks on the market is more crucial than the next two months,” Jacques emphasizes. “So if you price it and overprice it, you’re going to get complete silence and then from there on you might miss that window.”

Jacques describes his service philosophy using hospitality industry language: “I always tell my team, we want to provide the Ritz Carlton level of service to every single client.” Achieving this perception across 120 annual transactions requires systems and team specialization. The Jacques Team has developed processes including weekly client check-ins, buyer education seminars, and comprehensive marketing plans. “Long gone are the days of just putting it on the MLS and then the house sells itself,” Jacques says. “Now we have a 20-step marketing plan to make sure that we are hitting every single point.” Technology integration – including AI tools – enhances responsiveness without replacing personal interaction. “AI makes us more responsive,” Jacques explains. “I don’t think AI will replace us, but I do think it’ll make us better at what we do because we still have that human personal touch.”

Jacques characterizes Florida’s current market as “more of an honest market now” compared to pandemic-era dynamics where buyers chased properties above asking price. “Buyers are more cautious. They’re no longer chasing the market and sellers are watching days on the market like a hawk,” he observes. He remains bullish on Florida’s long-term opportunity, particularly in West Palm Beach where major business relocations continue driving demand. “West Palm Beach is having such a big influx of new businesses coming in. There’s still a lot of great opportunity,” Jacques notes. The ThreeBestRated® Award employs a rigorous 50-point inspection evaluating reputation, history, complaints, ratings, satisfaction, trust, and excellence – a standard Jacques believes validates The Jacques Team’s client-focused approach. “Our best thing is to see that our clients are happy at the end,” Jacques says. “And that brings us a lot of joy.”
