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 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.

James and the team been excellent and sale very quick and meet our needs for our futureplanning for our family

We had such a professional and pleasant experience with James when buying the property at Clareville that we had no hesitation in asking him to take on the sale of the property as we were away in the country most of the time we were reliant on James and his team to take care of a lot of details in preparing the house for sale, they did this brilliantly and we were very appreciative.

James' market knowledge was thorough and relevant, his presentation was excellent, he took great care to ensure we were not misled, was transparent in all discussions, remained positive throughout whilst being realistic. In the end James and the team delivered a good result despite plenty of negative elements present.

Thanks James and Lyndall for the great handling of the sale of our home. We really appreciated the regular updates and discussion about next steps and strategies. Your attention to detail and market knowledge, and evidence based advice left us feeling we were in good hands on auction day. Great result achieved by all!

James has excellent market knowledge for the peninsula. What we found refreshingly different about James is that he combines good judgement with a sensible use of data as the basis of his advice. Great communicator (on video) and interpersonally, James builds trust with buyers very easily. He really earned his commission in bring potential buyers to a strong offer prior to auction. Excellent job. Highly recommended.

James was very professional in all matters of the purchase of our new home. He was exceptionally knowledgeable of the local area and the market prices at the time. James was most helpful in his advice during the negotiation phase of purchasing the property which removed so much unwanted stress from us. Many thanks, we were very fortunate to have had you and Lauren look after us.

James and the team at McGrath did a great job selling my property in Avalon. I appreciated the fact that they didn’t over estimate what could be achieved and then disappoint which some agents do. They were very accurate in terms of what they said they thought could be achieved, and the final result. Overall a great experience with James and team McGrath.

We had a great experience with James and his team, their professionalism and commitment to our sale was a pleasant surprise. Would go on the same journey again with James and the McGrath team.

I like James. We became friends through the selling of my house. James also solid my Dads house and became a family friend. I trust James. I trust his knowledge in the market place and his advice on all regarding the selling of a home. James is honest and straight up which is incredibly valuable. I am sure we will be working together in the future and if not there is no doubt we will share a wave together at Avalon. Thanks James

James and Lyndall helped us every step of the way from how to present our home, to each week helping us understand each prospective buyer who visited our home. They were on top of what was happening in the market and were available to assist with any questions we had at any time. They were so positive, calm, professional and informative. We could not have been in better hands. Our sincere thanks to the team
