A wonderful mix of professionalism and warmth

We absolutely loved working with James. James has a mix of professionalism and warmth that is balanced so perfectly. He’s very switched on and was often able to anticipate things we hadn’t thought of well in advance. He is attentive, reassuring and was fantastic when it came to collaboration. His passion for his work is obvious and his work ethic, outstanding. Now that we’ve sold, we’re actually a little sad our journey with the Garwoods is over. We’ll miss working with both Jane and James. They really are the dynamic duo.

Terrific agent

Terrific agent

James has served us extremely well on the sale of our home. He goes well beyond the call of duty, has organised and fine-tuned the preparation of the home to exacting standards, presenting it perfectly for maximum appeal. He has maintained an excellent communication with us throughout and managed the listing, marketing and negotiation on our behalf - taking away much of the stress the sale of property can throw at us. James also conducted much of the negotiation for us while we were travelling overseas with late night & early morning calls to keep us fully briefed. An exceptional agent in all regards.

Fantastic team!

Fantastic team!

Jane and James expertly managed the sale of our property from beginning to end. They provided invaluable advice regarding the presentation of our home to maximize its appeal, arranged all the services, and oversaw its rejuvenation. They priced our property fairly from the outset, acting with integrity that we have found lacking in other agents. The campaign was scheduled months in advance leaving us with no surprises along the way and allowing our property to hit the market at its optimal time. Their communication with us throughout the campaign has been exemplary. We highly recommend this dynamic duo to others. Thanks Jane and James for all your efforts!

Brought the A-game

James impressed me immediately with his incredible attention to detail and an obvious enthusiasm for what he does. He made us feel excited by the process ahead for us and came with a plan of attack giving us confidence in the sales process. The working relationship between James and Jane was there to see and really elevated the experience for us.

Fantastic support and genuine passion for our home!

Fantastic support and genuine passion for our home!

James was the agent who was successful in recently selling my wife and I's three bedroom home in Cammeray. From the outset we were impressed with James' passion for making our home look spectacular for potential buyers and his incredible support throughout the journey. I was particularly impressed with James' genuine attitude, he was open and honest with his opinion's and that made my wife and I feel as though he had our best interests at heart. He understood how important our home was to us. James was highly responsive and no question seemed too small to be able to ask. My wife and I felt supported the entire way through and I would highly recommend James to anyone looking to sell in Cammeray. Our house ended up selling within 12 days of going on the market!

Very glad we chose the Garwoods

Very glad we chose the Garwoods

We met James and Jane Garwood early in 2018 when we thought about selling our apartment, we clicked with them right away as we could see their enthusiasm and professionalism. We weren't wrong with our choice. When we engaged the Garwoods in May 2018, we were entering a softening market and we believe that had it been for James and Jane, we would not have sold our apartment. Their attention to detail and follow up was unsurpassed. Jane was uncompromising in getting our property ready for sale and brought in a team of trades people to make it happen. James' follow up and communication with us during the 3 week auction campaign was excellent. The Garwoods and their staff are a highly polished team. We found James unrelenting to ensure a positive outcome for us. We would welcome the opportunity to speak with any potential client and would highly recommend their company.

Great agent

Great agent

We interviewed James and Jane Garwood and 6 days later we were on the market with an excellent, high quality sales campaign. That short timeline is a credit to James and Jane and their expertise. We were first time sellers and found James' market knowledge and willingness to listen, as well as share his insights about the selling process, invaluable. We knew from the outset that James would only be involved for the first couple of weeks as he would be away after that. James and Jane gave us great advice when advising us to style the property in a way that the most likely buyer would use the space and when explaining the selling process. We had a lot of questions and James and Jane were always happy to talk to us about the big picture as well as the small details. James kept in touch while he was away. He is warm and personable and passionate about real estate. It was a pleasure working with him. Thank you, James.

A true professional

A true professional

James made the task of selling our unit easy. His expert knowledge, personable manner and reliability enabled me to relax and observe as each element of the marketing plan which he had laid out, fall into place. The result was a successful sale which was pleasing to both vendor and purchaser. This is the mark of a true professional and we would recommend James and Gawoods for his/their knowledge, expertise and integrity.

Exceeded my expectations

James was introduced to me as a reliable and honest agent. I found him just that and more. He listened to my needs and provided me with a service that guided me through my sale with expertise and made me feel comfortable and re-assured during the entire process offering advice on all aspects of how to present and market the property in the way that would achieve my desired outcome. Well done James. Amazing job. Also the staff at Garwoods are so helpful and lovely to deal with and I felt right at home. James followed up with me constantly before and after each step along the way and made me feel supported and that he was putting all his energy into achieving the very best result for me. I am so appreciative. Thank you to all at Garwoods. I have already recommended them to many of my friends

Professional Yet Caring

Professional Yet Caring

The choice of an agent to sell our home was a massive decision, one which we laboured over for quite some time. We have been in the area for a while so have met a number of agents over the years. Our conveyancer mentioned Garwoods Estate Agents to us, so we decided to meet James. We are glad we did! As soon as we met James we liked him. We could see that he was a professional. But even more than that he seemed to care enough to want us to get the best possible price. We could tell that he took pride in his work. We were not disappointed! From day one we could see that he has set up the sales process like a well-oiled machine. From the photographer to the back-up staff in the office to the auctioneer, everyone we dealt with were true professionals who were the best at what they do. The auction campaign did start off slowly but James followed up every lead he got and communicated with us constantly. James has the ability to form a trusted relationship not just with us as the vendors but with the purchasers too. It definitely made the difference. The auction was a great success and our beautiful home sold to just the right person. We were more than happy with the price achieved. Selling a home is a stressful process but James communicated constantly and supported us through the ordeal. Would we recommend James? All we can say is: “You would be mad to go with anyone else!”

We were very pleased with the results James and Jane helped us achieve on the recent auction of our home. They worked hard, thought outside the box, were great communicators and clearly understood the market. They positioned our property well to get the best result.
