Having been stationed in Ventura, Ojai, Julian and Ramona over the course of 11 years, Brian has been dispatched to help fight hundreds of wildfires throughout California and the Southwestern region of the United States.
Brian transitioned into real estate in 2016 and has enjoyed growing his business while taking advantage of every opportunity to work with Active Duty Servicemembers and Veterans with their real estate transactions, transitional assistance out of the Military and even to begin careers as Realtors.
Brian has gained many valuable skills and traits from his time in the Marine Corps and as a fireman. Some of those include integrity, honesty and transparency. Brian has designed his personal business around those traits and works hard to continue serving those who serve.
Taking part in the veteran community is important to Brian, who is involved with various organizations that focus on helping his fellow brothers in arms.
Jake Smoke
USMC VETERAN
REALTOR® DRE # 02044023
A California native for most of his life, Jake has lived in the North San Diego County area since joining the Marine Corps in 2002. He served honorably for five years as a Huey and Cobra helicopter mechanic, including time spent supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom. Jake has continued to support all veterans in various capacities and is passionate about giving back to our military community. He is also a dedicated family-man who instinctively understand the unique needs of young, active families. He is lovingly run ragged by his three elementary aged kids and wife of eleven years. If Jake’s not at his computer working or showing homes for his clients, he is likely shuttling those bundles of energy to baseball practice, camping trips, or to the dog park.
As a Realtor & Military Relocation Professional, Jake serves clients throughout all of San Diego County and surrounding areas (such as parts of Riverside, Orange, and San Bernardino Counties). Real Estate is one of his passions and he takes great pride in providing an honest, straight-forward, smooth transaction with the best possible outcome for his clients. He strongly believes that everyone should be given confidence when they buy or sell homes. To that end he stresses educating his clients throughout every step of their process, maintaining a clear and honest dialogue.
Being a Veteran, Jake has a particular drive to serve military families. He is personally and professionally familiar with the process of being a VA Home buyer and, more importantly, he understands the unique challenges and concerns that military members and their families face. He believes deeply that if you have served your country, you deserve to own a piece of it.
Jake’s end goal isn’t just to help his clients meet their real estate needs, but to be always provide added value and be of service to others! He looks forward to serving your Real Estate needs and being a trusted resource you can turn to.
