 Faultless Professionalism

Faultless Professionalism

Excellent experience with James and the team. Faultless professionalism throughout the sales process by everyone from start to finish. James demonstrates a high level of professional expertise and is a skilled negotiator. He was fully involved and present throughout the entire duration of the campaign. I would happily work with James and the McGrath team again and would not hesitate to recommend their service.

Professional and Transparent

Professional and Transparent

With his track record for selling premium Clareville properties, James and his team were the obvious choice to market our treasured family home of 30 years on Taylor's Point. James devised a clear strategy and saw it through from start to finish, achieving a great result. James was always professional and transparent, providing honest straightforward advice and displaying deep market knowledge. Thanks to James, Adrian, Lyndall and the whole team for your marvellous efforts. Highly recommend.

The A Team !

The A Team !

James’ knowledge of the Avalon market combined with his calm, genuine manner made us feel we had put our Avalon home in the right hands from the outset of our 4 week campaign. It sold before auction for above our reserve despite a relatively flat market, and we were very happy. James kept us informed and reassured us when an interested party or two fell through and he certainly came through with the goods. He and Lauren are the A Team! We’d definitely recommend them.

Excellent knowledge of the local property market

James was excellent from start to finish. He had excellent knowledge of the local property market and was very transparent throughout the process. Selling a house can be a stressful thing but James made the process easy. I'd highly recommend James if you want an honest, real estate agent who gets results.

Results-driven Professional

We had the pleasure of working with James and his team during the sale of our property and we couldn't be more impressed. From the outset, James demonstrated exceptional professionalism, clear communication and a strategic approach to marketing our home. We undertook significant renovations without a hitch thanks to the expert advice and multiple trade contacts provided by the McGrath team. We highly recommend James to anyone seeking a dedicated, knowledgeable and results-driven professional.

James Baker is the consummate professional, and far exceeded our expectations. His knowledge of the market, constant communication, advice and negotiation skills are exceptional. We are so happy with the amazing service we received from him (as well as Lyndall Barry and the whole McGrath Team) to get us the best possible result.

A delight to work with

This was the second house James has helped us to sell. His knowledge of the market helped us to set realistic expectations. James is honest, respectful, thorough, kind and a delight to work with.

Highly recommend

From our initial discussions preparing the property for sale and managing a number of small works pre-sale, to arranging surveys, and advising on marketing James and Lyndall were extremely professional and very helpful. This was important given the 9-11 hour time difference on telephone calls. Their advice was accurate and timely, especially when guiding us through the process from auction to private treaty and then achieving the final sale price. Would highly recommend them.

Honesty, integrity and a professional approach

We have always found James super easy to deal with as buyers and sellers. James professional and calm demeanor make working with him a delight. His knowledge and insight in the local area is excellent and his guidance throughout the whole process reassuring. There is no other agent in the area that guide both the buyers and sellers through the process with honesty, integrity and a genuine professional approach. We could not recommend him highly enough.

A wealth of industry experience

A wealth of industry experience

There was never any doubt about who would handle the sale of our property. We had dealt with James previously and witnessed his calm, quiet demeanour coupled with a fierce determination to achieve a premium result. He is scrupulously honest, has a wealth of industry experience and his track record and reputation on the Beaches is well deserved. James is a lateral thinker - a terrific skill in a negotiator. Thank you James.
