Off market sale of my house

Off market sale of my house

James was comprehensively across the local market prices and had an extensive list of prospective buyers. He was professional , friendly and engaging. James was very easy to deal with and his communication was excellent. The Belle team including Danielle and Baxter were also very impressive. We got great advice re the property from Danielle and Baxter worked well with the buyers to provide an excellent outcome for all parties. We are very grateful to James and his team for a quick, pleasant and positive outcome. I highly recommend Belle at Lane Cove if you are thinking of selling your house.

House Sale Experience with James Bennett

House Sale Experience with James Bennett

We met James at one of his open homes about 9 years ago when new to Sydney and searching for our first property. Even though we did not buy a property through him he continued to stay in contact with us for over 9 years. During this time he was happy to provide advice where there was no apparent direct or likely financial benefits to him. He was always approachable, responsive, friendly yet professional. So when it came time to sell our house, we already felt like we had a relationship with James and didn't consider any other agent. This was reinforced by the experience our friends had with him selling their house 1 month before we went to market and the recommendations they had received from their friends. During the sales process, he was clear and articulate in explaining every part of the process, provided all the support we needed either directly or through his team, who I would also rate very highly, had a clear strategy, demonstrated his market knowledge and sales experience, leveraged his colleagues experience when necessary, and provided the direction and leadership that I had not experienced before from a real estate agent. His relevant commercial knowledge and ability to assess the market situation and options, and adjust sales strategy as required during the campaign provided us with confidence in his management of the sale. We would definitely consider using James again in the future if buying or selling in his area.

Professional and Easy Transaction

James has an excellent knowledge of the Greenwich market with a range of clients he has built relationships with over the years. He is respected in the area and this is evident with his ability to negotiate and effortlessly transact on a sale. James has sold many properties for us over the years - some off-the plan and other completed. We are grateful for his dedicated to a sale, expertise and professionalism.

Respect and Responsiveness

Respect and Responsiveness

We knew James was treating every potential purchaser with respect and responsiveness. Any interest in our property was carefully nurtured and cultivated (no potential interest withering on the vine!) He went above and beyond in ensuring the transparency of buyer interest at all times. His executive assistant, Danielle, was also super-efficient in organising trades/services and executing the actual contract. Result: a good, fair price with which we were happy to relinquish our beloved cute cottage at the top of Carlotta St without regret.

A wholly professional service

We engaged James Bennett of Belle Property to market our apartment in Greenwich. We found him easy to deal with, knowledgeable and professional. He remained in touch constantly, providing feedback and guidance. His staff were all pleasant and efficient. The COVID-19 market was unpredictable and challenging, but James steered our sale with resolve and we achieved an outcome that satisfied both vendor and buyer. I would recommend James and his team unreservedly. Full marks and heartfelt thanks.

Highly professional team

We were impressed by the professionalism of James and his team. Danielle’s friendly help and design expertise was much appreciated as we got the property ready to sell. And James really know’s the art and science of selling a property. They know the Greenwich area inside and out, and it is very apparent why they are the #1 agent for the area.
