Jim Sakalis The Real Estate Expert

Back in July of 2020, I signed a land contract on a property in Michigan with Local Home Investment. My family and I have been living in the home since then. LHI has been a compassionate and agreeable company to work with throughout my tenancy. Beyond that, LHI has gone above and beyond, Jim especially. He's very committed to doing right by his tenants and frequently goes the extra mile. In a world full of slumlords, it's such a breath of fresh air to have a landlord who cares.

Throughout the signing process for my home, Jim was very direct with me and we settled on terms with a minimum of fuss. He was very up-front about everything with the home instead of trying to hide or embellish anything, even encouraging me to get the home inspected before I signed anything.

I would recommend these experts to everyone. I had rental property for over 10 years that I couldn’t find good reliable trustworthy renters. Dana and Jim stepped in and stepped up took over the property made some improvements took over payments and maintenance and found a renter. True to their word the property was paid off on 12 months as agreed to. While there are many scams and scammers this is the real deal thank you my worries are over. Read more >

Mr. Sakalis builds his business from nothing. No, seriously, he has nothing. Instead he will make you believe he has a vetted and qualified individuals for a land/sale (rent-to-buy) contract, to move into YOUR home the one you put money down on and made on-time payments to own, and when they destroy YOUR asset, the relationships you built with your neighbors, is shot, and he won't return phone calls or email. He'll figure out a way to get the same person back in there, and because they have the contract with him, not you, you have no say about their behavior.
His tenant on our property was cited by the city Fire Department for sanitation and poor yard maintenance, issues but we can't evict the tenant, and he won't. No, Jim doesn't do much, of anything. We asked him to change the locks, he didn't. Now anyone, I mean ANY ONE, can walk right into OUR home and we have no say. Read more >
