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

Dear James & Alexandra Not really sure where to start but had to pop you a note to thank you so much for assisting me on my journey to sell my home. The timing ended up not being so ideal for me in regards to a personal matter as you well know which proved to be the most difficult time of our lives for me and all my family. Your compassion, kindness and sincere caring without a doubt helped me through this very difficult period and for this I will be eternally grateful. Your remained professional but also caring, constantly keeping me informed whilst ensuring I was not overloaded with what I was capable of handling at that time. With the end of this journey not only did you manage to hold everything together on my behalf but you also managed to achieve an unbelievable result in such a short period of time, how do I ever thank you. Your commitment, professionalism and experience is a credit to you and it has been an absolute delight and pleasure to deal with you, I could not recommend you highly enough to any prospective vendors/buyers. Thank you James from the bottom of my heart for everything! Warm regards Karen Prince

I am writing to share the nothing short of phenomenal experience that we have had in selling our home with James and Alexandra from First Meridien Realty. From our first meeting to the close of sale the couple exceeded all our expectations on all related levels. I have bought and sold several properties in the past and during these processes have never had the level of professionalism that we have experienced from this couple. Their absolute passion for this industry and strong ethics was evident and delivered on every facet of the process. From the initial consultation we felt we were provided with up to date data about the property market and invaluable consultation in preparing our home for the sale. The marketing they provided as part of their service was exceptional particularly the quality of video and photographs, their experience took the home to another level showcasing it at its best. Their strategic approach to market the property executed a burst of interest in the property resulting in a record sale within two weeks. They were both in consistent daily communication with us during this period giving us feedback and updating us at every development. Their honesty, integrity, commitment and drive is faultless and we cannot recommend this 'power couple' enough if you are wanting a real estate service. Karen Cumberlege

Dear James and Alexandra, We would like to thank you for the fantastic job you did selling our home.As first time sellers, you took the time to understand our needs and guide us through each step, helping us feel stress free and confident.Your professional friendly attitude made it very easy to place our trust in you. Not only did you achieve an amazing result for us, but you made the whole process so easy. We believe this was due to your diligence in guiding us and keeping us constantly informed. A record sale price for our street, a contract signed within 3 days and an amazingly pleasant experience. Your attention to detail and marketing were clearly evident and we are grateful for your dedication. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who would like to entrust the sale of their home to you. On a personal level, you were not only courteous, caring and helpful, but our children took kindly to you and to us that speaks volume about your integrity. Thank you for the great result in selling our home. We wish you both the best and hope to have the pleasure of your company again in the future. Brian, Jodie, Bailey and Jasmine Norrish.

We contacted Meridien Realty because they were recommended by good friends and they did not disappoint. In fact you exceeded our expectations. This is the third house we have sold and we were bracing ourselves for a very stressful few weeks. How wrong we were! James & Alexandra with their professionalism and expertise guided us through the process of selling our home. They turned up for appointments with us on time and regularly kept us informed with updates from prospective buyers as they said they would, and they sold our house for a great price! Thank you James & Alexandra you are an exceptional team. Ian & Jacky Jobling

Dear James & Alexandra We would like to thank you both for all your hard work and effort you put in to achieve the best outcome for the sale of our home. We were very pleased with the great result. Thank you both for your respect and courtesy and your professional conduct during this time. Kind regards Joe & Shirley

It is with pleasure and gratitude that we share comments on our experience with James Holvander on the purchase of our first home. Unlike many other agents, James is very patient, friendly, efficient and, most importantly, approachable. We had no prior experience in buying or selling, however, James made this process extremely simple for us by guiding us through the processes involved. The experience at each phase of the buying effort was superior. James was happy for us to contact him regarding anything anytime which meant a lot to us. I would be very happy to give James my highest recommendation for anyone desiring to buy or sell their property. James has surely outdone himself in my case and I’m sure he will do the same for you as well and accommodate for whatever your needs are. Yours Sincerely Zane and Xiaoyan Wang

Dear James & Alexandra After selling 2 family homes previously & having bad experiences with both agents we were pleasantly surprised by your professional approach to selling our home. You made a very stressful time so much easier for us. You kept us well informed & we were completely satisfied with all aspects of the process of selling our home. We are so grateful to you & would like to congratulate you on achieving a new record price for the area. We are still pinching ourselves with the result you have achieved & truly believe it's your professional approach & experience that helped us get the remarkable price in such a short time. We could not have been more pleased through the whole process of selling & would have no hesitation in recommending you both to anyone wanting to sell their property. Paul & Shayne Johnston
