Selling our investment property

Selling our investment property

Working with James to sell our investment property was simply outstanding. He arranged everything from tradesmen to the prompt sale of our property, which took all the stress from us. He was also very prompt with all communications and a pleasure to speak to. I highly recommend James to handle all your real estate needs.

Confident, cautious and complete service

James and his team offered excellent help and service throughout the sales process of my flat. From the very start James offered advice and guidance, was always available for questions and updated me on the sales process from the very start all the way to the sale. At the same time, James continuously offered a word of caution to keep my expectations at a sensible level. I have little doubt that the personality and local knowledge of James and Donna helped the interested buyers with their queries which then lead to an excellent sales result. I can certainly recommend CRE for any interested vendor or buyer of real estate.

A family tradition of caring service

I have, over many years had the pleasure in using the services of James Giltinan of CRE. During those years we have had no hesitation in relying on their expert advice and local market knowledge. When it comes to realestate matters James is highly professional. He has an excellent understanding of not only the market but also the my needs as his clients. Most recently he has been able to guide me through the process and arrange the very successful sale of my property.

Exceptional Professionalism and Expertise

Working with James was a pleasure. His strategic market knowledge was instrumental in the sale of my property, and his professionalism instilled complete confidence from day one. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in Sydney's Eastern suburbs seeking a trustworthy and highly effective agent for a successful sale.

Genuine professional, understands the East

James and Donna delivered accurate pricing advice, detailed knowledge of the Eastern Suburbs that informed guidelines and a smooth pre-sales process and worked easily with my conveyancer. Inspections were seamless, always attended by James & Donna, with both responsive to feedback from potential buyers and followed up immediately. Having previously rented for years from CRE, experiencing the respectful way both owner and tenant needs were managed, I was certain I could trust CRE to manage the sale of my property with straightforward, honest advice and great service.

Very Professional. Honest and Candid. Managed Expectations

Very Professional. Honest and Candid. Managed Expectations

I’d like to thank James and the team at Coogee RE with regard to a recent sale. In a market that seemed by some to be spooked by international politics, James managed the situation extremely well. When interest in the property did not match his expectations, he suggested postponing the auction. In doing so he was able to garner interest from several parties, two of whom bid on a night when all other auctions by other agents were cancelled. Despite a short pre-auction offer from one of the bidders, James was able to manage both purchasers and sellers expectations. Reserve price achieved! Highly recommended.

Excellent Agent - Sharp, Analytical and in Touch with Community Standards

James sold me my first property 35 years ago. James has managed properties for me in those 35 years. James is now selling properties for me acquired over 35 years. He remains trustworthy, honest and most importantly realistic, rare commodities in a real estate agent.

Highly professional and stress free experience. Outcome was beyond our expectations.

James and his team "armchaired" us through what can be a stressful and challenging process, with a sales outcome far in excess of our expectations. From the initial marketing strategy, timing and duration of the inspections, potential purchaser liaison and auction, the sale process was seamless. James is an excellent communicator, and we were kept informed throughout. We can recommend James and the team at Coogee Real Estate without reservation.

James has a wealth of experience and is super easy to deal with. We faced quite a few curve balls in my sale but James was able to deal with these calmly and effectively, find the right buyer and secure me a great price. Thanks for your perseverance and hard work James!

Excellent experience

Excellent experience

Cooggee Real Estate, under the leadership of James Giltinan, managed my rental apartment and later managed the sale of it. I have found James highly professional, knowledgeable and proactive at all times. Being able to trust a real estate agent is my most important requirement and James has proven himself to be someone I can trust to have my best interest at heart. James, as well as his team, are excellent communicators. I felt fully informed as well as listened to through out the whole experience. I would recommend James Giltinan without hesitation to anyone who has a property to manage or sell
