We knew from the beginning that we were in good hands with James and we were impressed with his knowledge of the housing market. He was at all times professional, understanding of our situation and kept us up to date with the progress of our property. I would recommend James Baker, his team at McGrath Avalon to anyone wishing to sell their house.
James Baker was recommended by friends and we will also be recommending him and his team. Selling in a lockdown was not how we imagined we would ever have sold and came with few hurdles. James has the skills and experience to handle the ever changing environment. He is very professional and is a very calm and clear thinker. He knows the area inside out and always gave us all the time we needed and explained everything so thoroughly with us. He is the complete package! Close to 20 years in our home, we feel so lucky that we chose James to be our Sales Agent!
What impressed us from the beginning about James is that he is very strategic and analytical in the way he approached marketing and selling our property. He runs a very professional operation with an excellent team that ensures everything runs smoothly and effectively. James has a wonderful way with people and is extremely personable and tenacious without being overwhelming. James did an outstanding job selling our property and was a pleasure to work with. After buying and selling 11 homes I can honestly say that James is one of the very best agents I’ve worked with and I have no reservations in recommending him highly.
Having known James for several years, including as the selling agent for our previous home in Avalon Beach, we already held him in very high regard. When we were ready to buy, we were confident that he understood our wishlist for our new home, and knew this lovely property would tick nearly all of our boxes. He patiently showed us through it three times under COVID-safe conditions. James and his colleague Lauren Garner were friendly, approachable, answered our queries, and kept us updated as the sales campaign progressed. Sales negotiations were professional, honest and open. James does not play games, he isn't pushy, but he is strategic and focused on getting the deal done, and achieving the best outcome for both buyer and vendor. He calmly steered the sale, and we were thrilled to secure such a special home after a long search, and in difficult conditions during lockdown. We highly recommend James to any future buyers, and sellers!
James is very professional and efficient. He is very easy to deal with and takes into account the clients opinions and needs. His expertise in real estate is outstanding. We felt very comfortable with him when selling our property in Avalon and I would recommend him to any client in the future.
I found James to be highly professional, genuine and very knowledgeable. He was always available and made the whole selling process as stress-free as possible. He was a pleasure to deal with and achieved a wonderful result. I would highly recommend James and believe he is the best in the area.
Without equivocation, James is the best in the business!! Honest, hardworking, expert local knowledge and gets the best results for buyers and sellers. A true professional in every sense and a pleasure to deal with. James will go above and beyond. We strongly recommend James Baker and the McGrath team.
James was wonderful to work with in every way, a consummate professional! Furthermore he is supported by a great team at McGrath Pittwater, noteworthy names here are Lauren Garner & Katrina Crawford. We can’t recommend them high enough, they’re simply that good!
Having known James for some years I engaged him to sell my property in Avalon. He and his team are very professional and knowledgeable. They guided me through a highly stressful process calmly and very effectively. Excellent communication skills through out were vital to a great result. I highly recommend James and his team to anyone contemplating selling their property.
James and the team at McGrath Pittwater are professional and empathetic and made the sale of our family home less stressful than I had imagined. James and his team regularly communicated with us and were always available for any questions or concerns. They listen to us as vendors, put us first, and were very proactive during the sales process. Their knowledge of the local area supersedes most as does their database of prospective buyers. Our property was sold in a short amount of time for a street record, an outstanding result that can only be attributed to the professional and caring ethics of James and his team. I would not hesitate to recommend the services to anyone.
Both James and Lyndall were great to work with. They are professional, responsive and helpful in what can be a stressful period. They are both excellent communicators, are clearly passionate about their work and genuinely care about their clients.
We recently engaged McGrath Real Estate from Avalon to sell our Careel Bay home. James Baker and his team were absolutely fantastic in their attention to detail in helping us prepare for the sale and guiding us through the procedure.His assistant LyndaII Barry was an integral part of the very smooth programme that the company set for the selling of our home. James and lyndall were available at all times to answer questions that we had in relation to the programme and we were kept fully informed of all developments along the way. We have been and continue to be very satisfied with our choice of agency to sell our property and would highly recommend James Baker and his efficient team.
