The best agents I interviewed... and they didn't disappoint.

The best agents I interviewed... and they didn't disappoint.

When it came to selecting a real estate agency to sell our property I organised one full day to interview six agencies with the best sales results in Kellyville over the past 3 months. James and Alexandra impressed me straight away. They didn’t make promises to secure my business or try and discount their professional fees or marketing costs. What they did say resonated with me. Upon selecting James and Alexandra to sell our home they were quick to action. They walked us through the home advising us on styling tips to maximise the effect for the promotional photography and video. The end result for both the internet and paper ads were spectacular. The response was fast with enquiries straight away. They clearly knew the importance of marketing to make the best impression on the market. On the weekend of the first open home James was in regular contact with updates on the sale negotiation. The final sale price was well above our expectations. I have no doubts what so ever that James and Alexandra got the best possible price for our property. Not only would I not hesitate in using them again I have already recommended them to several family members in the Hills area.

Dear James and Alexandra

What can we say but WOW!! Oh my God !! what a fantastic result. SOLD at a price way beyond our expectations. We thank you for achieving such an outstanding result on the sale of our house in just 3 Days. We met with a couple of other local Agents prior to meeting with James and Alexandra but none gave us the confidence and relaxed comfort feeling projected by James and Alexandra. The marketing approach was excellent especially the video which really showed off our home to its maximum. We can highly recommend James and Alexandra as we know they will work to get the very best result for you. Thnkyou so very much from Mike & Pam Andrew

Outstanding service

We had seen a lot of First Meridien signs in my area, and the properties had sold within a short period of time. After meeting with both Alexandra and James we was impressed with their enthusiastic and professional approach. During our first meeting with them they didn't push us into making a decision to go with them. They kindly came back for another meeting and gave us time to ask and explain the selling process in detail. We had a twilight viewing during the weekend and with the first Saturday viewing James had the property sold. The price achieved was excellent and we are very grateful for the team at First Meridien who made it happen and in such a short time of been on the market. James, Alexandra and all the staff at First Meridien have done a superb job for us, we are delighted with the result and the experience overall was great. We have no hesitation at all in recommending James and First Meridien

Thank you to James and Alexandra from Meridien

Thank you to James and Alexandra from Meridien

We first met James and Alexandra during the process of looking for our new home. After attending many open homes and watching the way different estate agents presented and dealt with prospective clients, we knew by the end of the purchase of our home, that we wanted James and Alexandra to represent us for the sale of our previous home. Their professionalism and sound knowledge of the market place was evident and their advice on how to prepare our home for sale was spot on. We loved our home of 17 years and were amazed at the final result in the first week. The look and final price exceeded our expectations. We have now used James and Alexandria to both buy and sell our properties - and cannot thank them enough for their expert guidance through what is normally a very stressful time. We had every confidence in their ability throughout the process. regards David, Julie and family.

3 Panmure Street Rouse Hill - Matthew & Roberta Lucarnus.

3 Panmure Street Rouse Hill - Matthew & Roberta Lucarnus.

I can't imagine there being a more efficient, honest, sincere and thoughtful pairing of two Agents; who not only clearly understand the Real Estate Market but who also have a genuine love for what they do. Thank you, for coming into our home and helping us to enhance our property inside and out. The thorough and meticulous initial appraisal based on a very "no bull" attitude and abundance of Real Estate knowledge was refreshing. It was most impressive to have two people who don't just whip out internet picture print outs and sales histories on previously sold properties; by only God knows who?! Thanks to your Superior Marketing Strategies and hard networking you produced a bevy of serious buyers, our very first Open Home saw an amazing 38 couples/families walk through. No sooner had you waved goodbye to the last couple at our Open Home, several serious offers just effortlessly flowed through, thanks to your very successful method of showcasing and hard work. Immediately you worked tirelessly day and night negotiating these offers, keeping us updated and never left any buyers hanging. Between the two of you, there was ALWAYS someone available whenever we needed you, always delivered, always on time and very accommodating; which we were particularly grateful for with our unpredictable routine of raising a young family. Problems? What problems? If there were any; we certainly didn't know because you had our backs from beginning to end! The word is out there and the gossip in the Hills District is true.... The best team around.... Ready, Steady, SOLD & thanks for coming! No wonder the two of you are ranked No. 1 Agents. If anyone, regardless of their predicament is looking to sell their home, WE DARE YOU to trust your most valuable asset to anyone but James & Alexandra of First Meridien Realty. All the very best to you both, what a wonderful and most memorable experience this has been for our family, you have given us a great start in our new home.

Dear James and Alexandra Thank you for the fantastic result in selling my home. The price you achieved after only one open home and only three days on the market was way beyond my expectations. As I mentioned, I really felt that I had won the lottery, so great was the result you achieved. Thanks also for making it so easy. James asked me at our first meeting what I thought was the most important attribute I wanted in my selling agent. I replied that I needed to be able to trust that my agent would do the utmost to get the maximum price, keep me informed, and provide honest advice to me at all times. You both did exactly that! So with a result I am still pinching myself to believe is real, I wholeheartedly recommend James and Alexandra as your selling team.

The Sale of 23 Mindaribba Avenue Rouse Hill

I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation and gratitude to James and Alexandra on their professional approach on the sale of my property. they impressed me with their friendly attitude and knowledge of the market and kept me informed on a regular basis as to prospective purchases comments etc. Their advertising campaign was brilliant and I received many comments from family members, friends and work colleagues as to the professional way in which my property was marketed. They guided me through the negotiation and made the sale experience very easy, and achieved the final sale price I had set. I have already recommended James and Alexandra to friends, as I consider them to be once again, professional and very informative on the Real Estate market trends. My Sincere thank you to James and Alexandra for helping me to start my new life. Cheryl Atkinson.

Sale of our property - ecstatic with the result!

We were elated with the result James and Alexandra achieved for us in selling our property. James was very confident of achieving an outcome, and together with Alexandra gave us some good tips on styling our house ahead of the first open home. The interest generated and the offers received were beyond our expectations - the deal was closed efficiently with a great outcome, and we found communication professional throughout the process so we stayed informed. Would recommend James and Alexandra definitely!
