When Lesley and I decided to sell our single storey Masterton Home in Kellyville being around 10 years old we obtained three property appraisals from local real estate agents and after some deliberation we decided to go with First Meridien Realty as they have a branch at Castle Hill and Rouse Hill. We have noticed they sell a large number of properties in the Hills District. We were introduced to Marianne initially when we originally were negotiating in the marketing and the selling process and James became involved in the open house presentation and the negotiating of the sale. Our house was sold within two weeks of being on the market. We are so pleased that we went with the team at First Meridien Realty and with our great result we have recommended Meridien to a friend around the corner and it now appears James has been successful in selling their house. Again thank you for all your teams hard work in achieving our great result. Lesley & Brian

I would like to thank you for your efforts regarding the sale of my house in Castle Hill. It was a pleasure to deal with you as well as your staff. You were always professional, friendly, helpful, ready to share your knowledge, well organised, punctual and available. I shall recommend you to anybody selling a property and wish you every success in the future. Yours sincerely M.Bouma

Absolutely fantastic . Brilliant result

Emotions often run high, when decisions are put into action, placing your home on the open market. Memories and attachments are running high and when you have chosen a trustworthy Real Estate Agent with your most valuable asset in life, the associated anxiety can be quickly removed. . That was our experience, even though we had not known James Holvander beforehand. It was bitter sweet having decided to move into a Retirement Village, but all through the process James and all the team at First Meridien were always available, either by person, phone, emailing or texting. They really looked after our interests in all areas associated with the selling process and left us feeling very happy with the end result. Our sincerest thanks to all the team and of course to Marianne and James. You are most recommended above and beyond the norm and we do qualify having both bought and sold through the family based agency. .Thank you all.

As a buyer and seller, I've become pretty resistant to sales patter over the years, so when selecting an agent to sell my property I looked for someone who could realistically appraise the local market, then enunciate a strategy that would match the strengths and weaknesses of my house with expectations of likely prospective buyers. James won me over with his combination of quiet reasonableness and a well-targeted marketing campaign. I was not disappointed my choice of agent: the property sold within week for a very acceptable price, and James admirably completed subsequent negotiations with courtesy, respect and integrity.

Dear James & Alexandra Just wanted to say thank you for selling our Rouse Hill home. We are extremely happy with the result you have been able to achieve and want to also say, "We are so impressed with your professionalism and that First Meridien Realty." You handled the selling process seamlessly........ It was very much appreciated by us. Your sincerely Wendy and Noel Boorer

To James & Alexandra We would like to express our sincerest gratitude and thankfulness for your outstanding service you have given us in the selling of our house. You always went that extra mile to make sure all our concerns were met and made us feel comfortable and safe throughout the process. We could not ask for a better agent to sell our place! We wish you all the success and happiness for the future in life and business. With sincere gratitude, Alfred, Ida & Wayne Mow

Right from our first meeting, my wife and I felt at ease with Alexandra and James. There was no pushy sales stuff and the professional, thoughtfulness and the calm manner in which they presented themselves was very reassuring to us. After an easy discussion around presentation, positioning in the market and price, we agreed to go into this partnership. Throughout the next couple of weeks of getting our place in the best presentable style we could, both Alexandra and James took the time to turn up for the photo shoot and with both their keen eye’s, sought out those best shots to display our home. One open day, that’s all it took and our property had sold. We were extremely excited and yet nervous, but at the same time relieved that it sold in such a short time. Their honesty and openness, intricate market knowledge and personal approach is what helped us get the result that we all desired. We cannot thank Alexandra and James enough as this now allows us to move on to our next stage of our lives. Yours Sincerely John & Laura Thomas

To James and Alexandra, Andrew and I would like to express our gratitude to you both, for not only selling our home for a great price in a ‘slowing market’, but for your professionalism from start to finish. From our initial meeting to exchange of contracts and beyond, we couldn’t have asked for better service. Your selling strategy really hit the mark, top spot in Domain.com.au, professional video, half page ad in the Hills Shire Times, all contributed to getting our home seen, and it paid off. We never thought that it could sell so quickly. I will be recommending Meridien Realty and especially team James & Alexandra to anyone looking to sell their home, if they want the best in the Hills! Regards, Brooke and Andrew Molloy

We would like to thank James and the staff at Meridien Realty for their total professionalism and passion towards the sale of our home. We are very delighted with the result achieved and would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who is selling their house. Danny & Kerry Smith

I would recommend James and Alexandra to anyone selling a home. They were always on time and incredibly professional in all aspects. James and Alexandra did everything they said he would do and were an absolute delight to work with. Diane and I would like to express our deepest thank you to the Meridien team for a job very well done. Neither of us felt comfortable with having to choose a Real Estate to sell our home due to the amount of competition in the area. After talking to three other agents it was clear that Meridien would suit us the most. After the first contact we were incredibly impressed by the organisation, communication and professionalism. Our home was sold in two weeks with a record sale for the area. Diane and I could not have been happier. Thank you for everything. Best Regards, Craig and Di Hallett

Dear James, Firstly I want to thank you very much for your assistance with finding our new home, we are very excited and extremely happy. We had been searching for a property in the area for over two months and in that time had experienced alot of Real Estate Agents and their service but none came close to the wonderful and attentive service we received from you and the First Meridien team. Your warm and genuine interest whilst helping us find the perfect house was greatly appreciated as the whole process was at times quite daunting and stressful but with your help everything was done smoothly, efficiently and quickly. We will forever be grateful to you for helping make our dream come true. Nora Janoyan and family
