Great agent!

James was great to deal with when selling our house. His communication was excellent despite the pressure. We were happy with the price he got us as it meant we could achieve our dream of our next house. Thanks James

Excellent agent who achieved for us a terrific outcome when selling our home

We had the absolute pleasure of working with James and his team when we recently sold our home. We were anxious and apprehensive to begin the process of selling our family home after 19 years however James guided us through the whole process with such professionalism and honesty that the whole process seemed like a gentle walk in the park. James was highly recommended to us by a neighbour who sold with Meridien a few years ago. They had been so happy with his services that we called him as soon as we considered selling. James proved to be a true expert in the real estate field and achieved for us a fantastic result and we could not be happier with the process for the sale of our home. It also helped that James is a genuinely nice person who at all times through the process demonstrated his integrity, always kept us informed and helped us understand all we needed to know. Nothing was a problem for James and he helped us out in so many ways. I highly recommend James and his team to anyone about to sell their home as you will definitely be getting to work with an exceptional real estate agent and team.

Professional wonderful agent! A class above the rest.....

I would rate Meridien and James Hovander's knowledge, professionalism and service as the premium real estate agency in the Hills. From the very beginning of my parent's listing, he stood above the rest in the way he absolutely cared, advised and guided my parents through the whole process from pre listing, listing, open home inspections and the final sale process. A true gentleman of the industry and his warm affable personality endeared him to us all and prospective purchasers. I would certainly recommend Meridien and James and will certainly be using them once again in the future. A++++ Wonderful!!

James was fantastic to deal with. Communication was great. He guided us with sound advice along the way. He was really diplomatic and shielded us from a lot of the stress that came with selling.

Repeat customer!

Repeat customer!

James impressed us 11 years ago when he sold our home to us. When it was time to move again, we really wanted James to act for us in selling. His honest, down to earth approach worked and we got the exact price we wanted, even though the market was ‘slowing down’. Alexandra was also very professional and helpful. We’re not planning to move again for a while, but wouldn’t hesitate to use or recommend James.

Highly Professional Agent

Thanks James for managing the sale of our home. We have known James now for many years, and found his market knowledge, negotiation skills and communication superior to other agents we have previously worked with. His calm demeanour, patience, honest feedback and enthusiasm ensured a trouble-free sale. First Meridien has a well-deserved strong reputation within the Kellyville area. You'll see why when you work with James. We highly recommend James, Alexandra and the team! Ray & Kellie

Best possible agent

James was recommended to us by our son whose property he sold and proved to be very worthy of the referral. James was unfailingly helpful and professional and dealt with considerable buyers market constraints with calm professionalism, despite which he achieved what we regard as the best sale price that could have been achieved in the circumstances. We unconditionally recommend James as an agent and a person. Beverley and Peter Harrigan

To James, Alexandra & the team at Meridien, Thank you for your outstanding professionalism and passion in the selling of our home. Nothing was too much trouble, you all took the time to listen and understand our needs and helped guide us through the whole selling process. A very good result in only two open homes! Your familiarity and knowledge of the local area clearly helped with our result. We would have no hesitation in recommending the team at Meridien to any prospective vendors.
