We had been hunting in the Bilgola area for 2-3 years with no luck. Prices moving at a faster rate than the bank could keep up. Also we got outbidded at one auction - with many bidders. Adrian was sympathetic to our situation - even though he is paid by the vendor, not the buyer. However- if he can bring both the seller and buyer together in a win win - then we all benefit - as in our case - in the end. Our purchase has some compromises - but overall it ticks almost all the boxes and feels just right. We appreciate his approach.

Having  known Adrian for years, I finally put my house on the market.   As always, Adrian was professional, polite and business like.  He returned text messages within seconds, or rang to say he would do so within minutes, which he did.  It was impressive.     If you live on Bilgola Plateau, Adrian is your man.  He will give you excellent advise and get the best price for your home.  Don't wait, do it now before it is too late.  You won't regret it.

We had met James on several occasions in recent years while considering a move and always found him an approachable, knowledgeable and helpful person, focused on what might assist us rather than his desire to list or sell. That consiatency, coupled with our noting his success made appointing him as lead agent was easy, especially as his colleague, Lyndall Barry had remained in touch since we purchased our home through her quite some time ago and she'd kept us abreast with the market, trends and likely directions, over the years. We are delighted with the results and particularly impressed with James' unique and structured approach to the sale process...removing surprises, setting likely pathways and possible changes and above all, the delivery of an auction plan that completely removed the concept of the typical noise-fest and merely worked with all parties to ensure all buyers had equal advice and support throughout and we were kept informed constantly. The overall experience was ourstanding and the result fair to the parties to the sale.

Our decision to list with Lyndall and McGrath in late 2021 was made well prior, following consistent communication regarding the current market, trends and likely directions over several years. During our campaign and the sale process, Lyndall and James Baker quietly delivered practical advice, shared market information and their take on that and above all, raised in advance any shifts and possible responses we might need to consider. The planning around and management of the auction process was a revelation and far from the traditional approach...you should discuss this Lyndall and James.

It was a pleasure to have Adrian and his team sell my Avalon property. His knowledge of the market and his constant updates made the process stress free. He is very honest, straight forward and shows a great deal of integrity. I would highly recommend Adrian to anyone wanting to sell their property. 10 out of 10
