Jay Rezendes

Jay is a Realtor and founder of the 401 Group at RE/MAX First Choice, but he is also a family man who understands families’ needs. He enjoys advocating for people and pushing forward to help them reach their goals. His client-centered approach truly sets him apart.

With over 12 years of experience and hundreds of families assisted, Jay’s intimate knowledge of the Rhode Island and Massachusetts markets and housing industry trends is unprecedented. His previous career as an executive chef helped shape and mold him for his position in real estate today, requiring intense levels of precision, time management, flexibility, and above all else – ensuring an exceptional and memorable customer experience.

He finds great joy in helping individuals and families during one of the most important seasons of life– buying or selling a home. Jay credits his mom for his drive to succeed, as he watched her provide for her four children tirelessly during his childhood after his dad passed away unexpectedly.

Family is everything to Jay, and much of his free time is spent with his wife and two young children. He also enjoys exploring local food scenes, traveling, exercising, and visiting the ocean during warmer months.
