Industrious friendly reassuring agent

Thank you for helping me achieve the purchase of my home which I am sure I will be very happy with and enjoy for years to come with my big family. The grandchildren are mostly pleased that it has a pool and I am sure all my grandchildren and extended family and friends will have many happy times in this lovely home.

James knows the local market in a detailed way and really keeps informed of what is happening with sales. He developed a good marketing strategy which attracted a very good response of inspections and potential buyers. James has a very engaging style with buyers and was effective at maximising interest in the property. The final sale was assisted by the extra exposure James was able to get through his contacts with media groups, including a feature of the property on a SkyTV property segment. Would recommend James for his professional approach and the results he is able to achieve.

James was very approachable at all times and did an excellent job of negotiating a price that was acceptable to both parties. He was professional at all stages of the process of the sale. We were delighted with the price that we paid for the property

James & Adrian @ Macrath Avalon Beach we’re fantastic. In a difficult market they gave great advice based on deep market knowledge. While we always had the last say their strategic advice together with a great process got us the best outcome we could have hoped for. John & Robyn

Selling your house can be a very emotional and stressful time. James and his team were professional, understanding, highly qualified and knowledgeable. Wether you are looking to buy or sell we highly recommend James and his team. They are the complete package.

Professional and Sophisticated Campaign

James, Adrian and the rest of the team at McGrath Avalon ran a sophisticated and professional campaign, resulting in the successful sale of our property on the day of auction. James and Adrian were both skilful and tireless negotiators. We were kept well informed throughout the campaign and were very grateful for the attention we and our property received, from styling to photography to marketing knowledge. I would happily recommend McGrath Avalon.

Even though we were purchasing our property from overseas (!), James made the process feel very smooth and professional and we felt in good hands. Thanks!

James and his highly efficient team did all they could to make the sale of my property as informed, seamless and as good an outcome as could be hoped for in the current real estate market. I would highly recommend them for their professionalism, empathy and integrity. Many thanks to them all. With Warm Regards Sheridan Hudson

James was really attentive to my property requirements, and led me to the house that ticked every box on my wish list. It took a long while but he didn't lose interest in me. Such a professional and friendly team.

James and Lauren worked as a team on our successful sale. James knowledge of the area was what initially made us select this team. Due to our unusual medical circumstances, Lauren showed enormous care with us, she reported in detail after every inspection, we never had to wonder about anything. James and Lauren worked so well and consulted with us constantly. You cannot do better than use this team at McGrath Avalon.

Working with James [and the entire McGrath Avalon Team] was a pleasure from start to completion. James' advice was credible and accurate and communication through the entire sales process was detailed and frequent. I wouldn't hesitate to engage James and McGrath Avalon again.
