Highly recommended

Highly recommended

James and team were exceptional from the outset. It’s not a once person approach, but an entire team focussed on achieving the best outcome. There were no ‘bells and whistles’ with James, he was clear, honest and upfront through the entire process, which is exactly what is needed. Market knowledge was second to none, and his guidance was highly valued.

Great experience, would use again

James and Lyndall did a wonderful job helping us to sell our house. They were able to recommend great tradespeople and stylists to get it ready for sale and had a very high level of market knowledge specific to the area, which was very useful to us throughout the sale process. They kept us up to date with all communications with potential buyers and were professional in their dealings with everyone at all times.

Top agent with a top team!

Top agent with a top team!

James and the team at McGrath represent the epitome of professionalism and everything you'd expect from the very best agent. From the outset James and his team communicated with me clearly and honestly about my property and the process for achieving the best price. Every step of the way has been an endorsement of the professionalism and experience of James and his team. From marketing, photography, copywriting and running open homes to the final auction - the process has been of the highest quality and integrity. I am very happy with the sale price and I have absolute confidence that no other agent would have achieved a cent higher.

Sale of a waterfront property at Newport

Sale of a waterfront property at Newport

James Baker is an experienced agent in the Northern Beaches. Approximately 4 years ago I purchased the subject property when James was the vendor's agent and now I have listed the property through James and it was sold a week ago. And so I have had contact with James as boyh a buyer and a seller. On each occassion James was professional and effective ----and enabled the outcome of both purchase and sale. I also compliment James's other senior sales person Lauren Gardener. She was professional, diligent and effective. Both James and Lauren worked outside a normal working week when attention to detail required immediate response. I have no hesitation in recording my highest compliments and regards to James and Lauren Graham O'Neill

Outstanding result

Outstanding result

James sold me the property over a decade again and because of my experience then he was the first and only person I selected to sell the property again, along with his colleague Lauren Garner. They gave me a very succinct overview of potential pricing along with a clear strategy to achieve a sale. Lauren conducted much of the house viewing programme leading to a successful sale at the top end of their price guidance. James was also involved and provided great support to Lauren as the process unfolded in what turned out to be quite a short timeframe. It was notable that they introduced prospects from well outside the Avalon area and indeed the purchaser lived outside the Sydney metropolitan area. Their knowledge of the local market is outstanding, the way they conducted themselves was always professional and the constant feedback and quality of communication was excellent. This was my eighth house sale as I have moved around the country for work and the experience this time around was outstanding. James and Lauren made it so easy.
