James is totally professional in every way . As one of the older brigade, friendliness and trust are well up on my important list. James has all this in bucketloads and I would recommend him and his team to everyone.

We cannot speak highly enough of James! We truly valued his professionalism, his transparency & his attention to fine detail. We felt that we were in ‘good hands’ throughout the whole process of selling our home. James & Sam proved trustworthy. We valued the whole team! Thank you!

We took James at his word that they were fielding multiple enquiries from buyers who were ready to purchase in what was a very hot market. We decided to trial an Off-Market approach to avoid advertising costs and signage etc. The results were fantastic with a Street record 20% higher than any other sale. Overall great communication and result, plus very good team work from the office.

James’s knowledge of the current market was spot on. James was very respectful and had a great understanding out what we were trying to achieve. We would highly recommend James to anyone considering to sell there house.

We carried out a three year renovation on our property. On our last visit to Sydney in February 2020 we met and selected James Baker and Lauren Garner to market our property. Little did we realise we would not be able to return due to Covid, or see our house finished in person. James and Lauren explained the market concisely and where our house was positioned. It took a further 12 months to complete the renovation. During this time we stayed in regular contact receiving updates on recent sales and the general market. When we were ready to sell we discussed and agreed to go to auction. Immediately, the house was staged, photographed and the marketing campaign kicked off. Throughout the preauction period we were regularly kept up to date via text and calls. We particularly appreciated being guided through the auction process and strategy. The house sold at auction, we could not be more pleased with the McGrath team for pre and post sale.

James and his McGrath team have achieved an excellent auction outcome for us with the sale of our property. He demonstrated professionalism and genuineness throughout the whole process which made us feel assured and comfortable. We strongly recommend James to anyone who is thinking of selling their property.

Having recently bought our new home, and sold our current home through James, we feel well placed to provide a comprehensive view of his skills and knowledge. From start to finish the advice we received was clear, insightful and timely. This was supported with effective communications throughout, which helped us manage the inherent stress of buying and selling. Ultimately, the end sales result achieved was pleasing, and buoyed by a favourable market, at the top end of our expectations. James is a consummate professional and we commend him and his team to you without reservation.

We are very pleased with the job James & Lyndall did for us when they recently sold our house. Their proposal was thorough, detailed and addressed the uniqueness of our property. From that point onwards the process followed their script remarkably closely. So while selling a house is stressful, feeling like we were on a known trajectory made it as comfortable as it could have been. The outcome of our sale was right in line with James's assessment and our expectations. Highly recommended.

I found James to be warm and friendly with great knowledge and experience about the market on the Northern Beaches and the high end market in general. His presentation on my marketing video was fantastic. He and his staff, particularly Lauren are warm and friendly with an easy going approach and I enjoyed working with them. His direction and advice on on the marketing and selling of our property was excellent. I couldn't recommend James and his team highly enough.

James and Lauren are an exceptional team when it came to positioning our property in a fast moving market , and identifying the type of buyer for our property -and communicated very effectively, with an excellent outcome.

Strong market and product knowledge, over rided by his people skills. James is one of a very small group of property sales professionals

Great market insights and and a professional approach. It was a pleasure to work with James and achieve a good result. He has a good personal style and is warm and approachable.
