James was really attentive to my property requirements, and led me to the house that ticked every box on my wish list. It took a long while but he didn't lose interest in me. Such a professional and friendly team.

James and Lauren worked as a team on our successful sale. James knowledge of the area was what initially made us select this team. Due to our unusual medical circumstances, Lauren showed enormous care with us, she reported in detail after every inspection, we never had to wonder about anything. James and Lauren worked so well and consulted with us constantly. You cannot do better than use this team at McGrath Avalon.

Working with James [and the entire McGrath Avalon Team] was a pleasure from start to completion. James' advice was credible and accurate and communication through the entire sales process was detailed and frequent. I wouldn't hesitate to engage James and McGrath Avalon again.

My experience with Adrian Venturi, McGrath’s Real Estate, Avalon One of the neighbours said: “Don’t worry about getting an agent, just put up a sign: the place will sell itself!” He was trying to be helpful and possibly save me agents’ commission. However, even though I had some experience in selling properties, I realised I needed some advice of how to best present this property in its prime position and attract potential buyers. So I picked the agent with the best sales record in the area, which is Adrian Venturi of Mc Grath’s Real Estate. From the moment he entered the house and introduced himself, I realised I had made the right choice, not only in getting an agent but in getting this particular agent. He immediately perceived how best to market the property by focusing on its natural highlights. What sets Adrian apart from other agents is that he has a flair for making constructive suggestions of how to present a property to best effect. He perceived that the furniture and some of the fittings, especially the dark and wooden wall surrounds, were unsympathetic to the otherwise spectacular layout and position. He then in detail described a preferred re-design of the interior, which I subsequently implemented at very low cost, chiefly with a paint brush. He also recommended I use his favourite stylist to replace the old and detracting furniture. This turned out to be a complete success, and he observed: “You’ve renovated the place without a renovation.” There was simply no comparison between the before and the after. In the sales campaign for the auction Adrian’s agency excelled in every respect. Multitudes of people were shown the property. In addition there are always procedural, legal and practical issues that need to be addressed and it was a pleasure working with Adrian to solve them in short order. He also has a good rapport with potential buyers and he kept me well informed at all times. When it comes to Auctions, Adrian is in his element. He kno

Adrian went above and beyond for us. His communication skills are first class. He regularly checked in and was one of only a few agents who listened to what we were looking for in a house. We truly feel like he had our best interests at heart and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

We were very pleased with our whole experience from beginning to end. We were living away from the property during the sale process and James and his team were able to support us with getting the property in tip top condition. Nothing was too much trouble for James and Lauren. They worked very hard to get us the best price and we sold on the day of auction.

Lauren Garner
Thank you James for your outstanding service from the moment we came to view this property. James was at all times helpful and made himself available for every enquiry, access to the property and most of all supportive during the daunting process of purchasing at auction. Can't thank you and your team enough. Exceptional service. Exceptional agent.

Sam is a knowledgeable, professional agent. His ability to weigh up the market and set the selling agenda accordingly, enabled me to settle on my unique style of home, at a fair price, in a timely manner ... no 12 months on the market for me, thank you Sam. I have already recommended Sam to others who are looking to sell. Sams loyalty to me as a customer has meant he has offered to negotiate on my behalf when I purchase again. Helpful to have an unbiased, market aware, real estate agents input on such a large purchase. Kind regards Annette Faulkner

James was supportive and diplomatic through the stressful process of selling our house. His calm manner and always being available to talk through the strategy was much appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend James and use him again when the time comes.
