Establishing trust is the essence of success

Establishing trust is the essence of success

James Baker and his team are model real estate agents who bring genuine skills in building momentum and establishing interest in the sale of premium property. In a declining market, we managed to get across the line achieving a good result. Managing expectations is not an easy thing to do. Establishing trust is the essence of success. We listened, we did our research, and we worked to their advice. Very good charming people and highly recommended for their expertise and professionalism.

James and the McGrath team were excellent, over and above any expectations I had. Attention to detail, the efficiency of service and above all the client care was genuine, a very rare quality in todays climate. I will always fully appreciate how easy James made the selling of my house for me, it was seamless. Fully recommend such a professional real-estate agent.

Quite a journey with genuine and tireless co-travelers James, Adrian and Team McGrath

Quite a journey with genuine and tireless co-travelers James, Adrian and Team McGrath

Selling this little bit of Paradise (for us) has been a most difficult time of change, but here we are, all pleased with the sale. Well done! James (Baker) and Adrian (Venturi) have shown so many qualities during this time, I would say for us way beyond their brief: they are both highly committed ( and most pleasant) professionals whose integrity and honestly will always win over quick results. They are empathetic but will tell it to you as it is… Their patience in continuously updating and explaining trends as they occur has been impressive, they live and breathe the Avalon/Newport real estate scene, with their local and market knowledge unparalleled. Thanks all of you at Team McGrath (and it IS a real and friendly Team)! I recommend them highly, and will continue the relationship as a potential buyer and beyond!

James has exceptional knowledge of the Avalon market

James has exceptional knowledge of the Avalon market

James has exceptional knowledge of the Avalon market and we have both bought and sold property through James. In our recent sale, it took place as the market started to turn, so it was a stressful time. James successfully negotiated us a good outcome, and I strongly recommend him. James and his team are very good communicators both with good and not so good news, and guided us through what can be a stressful process.
