James Hafer

HELPING YOU FROM START TO FINISH

WELCOME

If you were to ask Jim Hafer what he does for a living, he probably wouldn’t say he’s in the real estate business; he’d say he’s in the people business. Jim believes his work as a REALTOR® is about more than buying and selling; it’s about helping others make very personal, life-changing choices that will impact them for years to come. Jim doesn’t take this responsibility lightly. In fact, that’s why he’s made real estate his life’s work. Since 2002, Jim has worked hard to build relationships that deliver results, and he takes considerable pride in the level of service and care he provides every client.

Jim knows that home isn’t just a place to live; it’s where memories are made, life lessons learned, and where people grow. He understands the critical role of the home in every clients’ life and seeks to ensure his buyers and sellers make informed property decisions.

Buyers: Buying a home is a daunting prospect, especially for first-timers. Before looking for a new home, Jim likes to sit down with his buyers to truly understand what they need and want from their next home. Beyond that, he also wants to get to know the buyers themselves. The better he knows his clients, the better he can serve them as their agent. Jim also likes to create a roadmap of expectations, so his clients know what’s to come as they work toward buying a home. He finds that explaining the process from start to finish is immensely helpful because it starts critical conversations about lending, insurance, and other aspects of purchasing a new home. 

Sellers: When working with sellers, Jim also likes to begin the process with a conversation. He wants to get to know his clients so he can learn what they love about their home, as well as their pain points with the property. This information allows him to create a results-driven marketing plan to maximize sales price and minimize time on the market.

Jim was a fantastic agent and answered all of our questions, giving us advice, and insights along the way. He is extremely easy to work with and very responsive, clear, and prompt in communicating. We had a tight timeline for looking for a house and he accommodated us at every request.

I have retained Jim Hafer on two different occasions to represent us in residential real estate transactions. Additionally, I have engaged Jim numerous other times for advice on various West Virginia real estate matters.

I've worked with Jim Hafer as my real estate agent for over 15 years, and he's been exceptional every step of the way. Jim helped me purchase my first home--a new construction in Brookfield--as well as sell that same property in 2024 after it served as my primary residence for more than a decade. He's also assisted me in acquiring three investment townhome properties, where he's helped secure and... read more

I've worked with Jim in the past to purchase my commercial office space in Martinsburg, WV. Most recently he helped my family with our very specific wishes for our home purchase needs. We had a very small geographic search area in southern Back Creek Valley and Jim was very helpful sending listing and was always willing to run out and walk us through promising homes that hit the market. When the... read more

Jim and his team recently assisted with selling my home. It was a wonderful and fairly easy process. Way less stressful than I expected. When I originally contacted them I wanted to rent my home; however after further consideration I decided to list. Jim's team did a great job keeping me informed, and were level headed and confident in their work. I really appreciate all of their help with this... read more

After many wonderful years in Martinsburg, I recently sold my home only to buy one in Shepherdstown. Jim Hafer of Modern Realty Results not only listed and sold my house, but found the perfect one for my changing needs. From listing to searching to settlement, Jim made the whole process easy and stress free. If you live in or near Martinsburg or Shepherdstown & are thinking of selling your home... read more

My husband & I recently purchased our first home & the people at Hafer Team were great! We had no idea what to expect going into the whole process, but Jim was honest with us from the beginning, knew the business & made everything pretty simple for us! I'm so glad we were not one of those "first time home buyers" horror stories that you often hear about!

I used Mr. Hafer's services over a year ago, and I was super satisfied with the service. He was highly professional, diligent, courteous, timely and competent in every aspect of the transaction, and I had great peace of mind throughout the process. I highly recommend his services.

Jim was terrific! Professional, anticipating our questions or concerns, so they were addressed before they even became an issue. We were thankful to be guided through the entire home purchase process. The whole experience was seamless...will have no reservation about using them again.

Jim Hafer did a marvelous job selling my home I'd recommend him to anyone. We had our homes sold in one day and above asking price. He's always there for you if I had a question he would text me right back with the answer. If you're looking for a realtor who will work with you call Jim Hafer he is the only realtor I will call. FIVE STAR SERVICE!!!!

Hafer Real Estate Group have managed my commercial property for several years. The three most important things to me are the welfare of my tenants, timely repairs & maintenance and on time financial information and payments. These guys score 10-out-of-10 in each of these categories. I highly recommend Hafer Real Estate Group.
Lennox C.
I used another company for 6 months to sell one of my houses and they did nothing for me. It seemed like they didn't care, while my neighbor sold her house in a week with her agent. I dropped my agent and called hers. My house sold in two days!! He lives in The Woods and knows homes and understands what needs to be done to sell them. His name is James Hafer of Modern Realty Results. He's a good... read more

After 15 wonderful years as part time residents at the Woods, my wife & I recently sold our home since the the focus of our leisure time was shifting from WV to NY due to the birth of our first grandchild. I want to give a shout out to Jim Hafer of Modern Realty Results who listed our house ( O: 304-596-6010; C: 304-279-6320). From the listing to settlement, Jim made the whole process pain free &... read more

Jim is an amazing agent! I met Jim in the neighborhood when I was considering listing our home "for sale by owner". Jim offered to talk with me and spent nearly an hour of his time giving me tips and best practices on "for sale by owner". A few weeks later I realized that hiring an agent (rather than selling myself) was the best option and I knew I would ask Jim to sell the home for us. Jim is... read more

Jack Lineberry Jr.
The people of Hafer Real Estate Group were extremely helpful in the purchase of our new home. Being new to the area & not knowing where to start, our friends pointed us in the direction of Hafer Real Estate Group. They took the time to drive all over the county showing us homes & giving advice. Unlike the previous reviewer, we never felt that we were being pushed. In fact, it was quite the... read more
