Definitely go with James and Jane

I'm not sure we we're the easiest vendors to deal with but I am sure James and Jane did everything in their power to achieve a truly unexpected and great result for us. They told us that they would treat us like a family and this is true. They really had our backs, fought the good fight for us and form a trustworthy, passionate team that I couldn't recommend highly enough. Thank you both for your perseverance, tenacity and expertise.

A great team!

A great team!

James Garwood and Jane Garwood are a truly amazing team! Our sale of a deceased estate involved very tricky issues which James and Jane handled sensitively and extremely ethically. They co-ordinated all trades for a necessary property makeover and rolled up their sleeves to pitch in themselves without hesitation. With their great background and experience in home renovations and I had complete confidence in James' and Jane's good taste and sense of style - no need to micro manage here! They are enthusiastic, warm, passionate yet pragmatic and were available at all times to assist with whatever was necessary. You really couldn't find two better agents to sell your property.

Not your regular agent- exceeded expectations on every front

Not your regular agent- exceeded expectations on every front

From the moment I met James and his mother Jane I thought they were the right fit for the sale of my parents' home.My favorite part of the "Team Garwood" experience was that they always treated the listing as if it was the only one that mattered to them and devoted an amazing amount of energy and enthusiasm to the process.They were sensitive to the circumstances of selling a longstanding family home, while at the same time totally professional and focused. Their advice about the best way to present the home was informed by solid evidence and experience of what buyers are looking for in the area, and it worked! I should mention that they a procured and project managed the trades we needed with incredible efficiency, and made it all happen in an amazingly short time which is something I could not have done myself. Thank you James (and Jane) for all your efforts, much appreciated.

I was happy to engage James Garwood as my selling agent. I found him to be very helpful, knowledgeable, and efficient. James went above and beyond to help me prepare my apartment for sale. He maintained regular contact and kept me well informed at all times. James has an upbeat and humourous disposition, which is always helpfull with the stresses of selling !

Testimony for James Garwood

As a sales agent at Belle Property Neutral Bay , I had the unique advantage of watching Jane and James Garwood operate first-hand and so it was an easy decision to choose them to sell my apartment. I did not speak to other agents because I knew I would be in good hands and they did not let me down. Their expertise, local knowledge and strong work ethic from beginning to end ensured that the process for me was stress-free and you cannot put a price on that. Their scrupulous buyer management and follow-up, clear and constant communication, and their willingness to leave no stone unturned ensured that I ultimately achieved $60,000 above my reserve! They delivered on everything they said they would. I cannot thank Jane and James Garwood enough and I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone thinking of selling their most important asset.

An Exceptional Professional

An Exceptional Professional

When we were having difficulty finding the ‘right’ agent to sell our home, a friend recommended we speak with James Garwood from Belle Property (Neutral Bay). Immediately upon meeting him we knew he was the one we wanted as he completely understood the unique nature of the property we had, and so how to reach out to and find the type of buyer who would be interested. Plus, we knew instinctively we would be comfortable working with James. Though we had questions on aspects of the marketing plan proposed, we inevitably did as James suggested as his clear and well thought-out explanations were convincing. And he was right! In the end we were simply delighted with the outcomes achieved. Importantly, James nurtured us throughout the process, calming us down when we felt anxious, making suggestions where required, promptly responding to any query we had, and keeping us regularly appraised on how the sale process was progressing. We could not have asked for a more supportive partner in selling our home. James Garwood is not just highly professional, but very personable too. We thoroughly recommend him without hesitation.

Selling Our Property.

Selling Our Property.

We can't speak highly enough of the experience we had with James Garwood as our selling agent. He was involved in every aspect of getting our house ready to go on the market. James arranged for various tradespeople to come through our home and having babies in the house at the time he was always conscious of ringing beforehand and ensuring the appointments were made at a suitable time. He was very knowledgeable about our potential target market and arranged styling of the house accordingly. James kept us informed throughout the whole process, right from the maintenance work to the end of the sales campaign. James conducted himself in a professional manner and was always available to listen to any questions or suggestions we may have had. We ended up with a fantastic result at auction, gaining a figure well above our reserve price. We would not hesitate to recommend James Garwood for the sale of ones home.

Recommendation for James Garwood

James Garwood from Belle Property worked closely with myself and Jane Garwood to prepare my home in Cammeray for sale and take it to auction. I was thoroughly satisfied with the quality of advice and communication I received from James and would be very happy to work with him again in the future if I had another property to sell.

Excellence in real estate sales

I connected with Jane and James when I was looking for an agent to sell my house for me. I felt immediately comfortable with their professionalism and quick follow-up, making it an easy decision to proceed with them. During the presales time, I can't express strongly enough how hard Jane and James worked to help get my house into the best possible shape. Partway through this preparation I had to go into hospital for major surgery which took me 3-4 weeks to recover from. Jane and James stepped in and selected and managed all the presale trades people directly for me taking care of the finest details, going way over and above any expectations I or anyone else could possibly have had. They were caring and considerate, very focused on ensuring I got the best outcome from the sale and communicated everyday on progress and other relevant matters. At time of sale I said to my friends, the house looks great, I have THE BEST agents on the market and the marketing is very high quality - there was nothing more I could hope for. We sold before auction for a very fair price after an intense auction lead-up week where Jane and James worked solidly to guide the sale through. I look forward to staying in touch with Team Garwood who have become more like friends than sales agents to me. I continue to highly recommend them to anyone in my area who is thinking of selling knowing that they too will receive exceptional service and a great result. Trish Stockton

The Happiest Vendor!

The Happiest Vendor!

Earlier this year I had a stroke of luck! I was selling my 3 bedroomed townhouse in Wollstonecraft when a friend recommended Jane and James Garwood of Belle Property Neutral Bay, saying they had an excellent reputation for integrity and professionalism as well as the ability to achieve the very best price I was actually about to sign with another agent but as soon as I met Jane and James and they went through their presentation I had a swift change of mind and knew that they were the ones I wanted to sell the property. And my confidence was not misplaced! They were everything and beyond anyone could expect or hope for from real estate agents. They worked tirelessly, taking on far more than the nomal load. They took curtains home to wash, watered the garden, oversaw the tradesmen and stylists who prepared the property for sale, but most remarkably they liaised with the Strata company persuading them to bring forward the painting of the outside of the building in the nick of time for the first open viewing! On top of all this, they communicated with me almost daily, letting me know how things were progressing and, best of all, they achieved a great price at auction, well over our reserve. Thank you is not enough, Jane and James but THANK YOU anyway! Lucille Trill.
