professional in a difficult market

James achieved good results in selling a group of units over a changeable and difficult market (due to Covid and poor government policy). While the seller always wants more, the results were realistic in the circumstances.

James is a thorough professional with significant property knowledge which was valuable

My overall experience with James was extremely positive which alleviated concerns with what can be quite a stressful time when putting a property up for sale. James had significant knowledge of the overall market in the area and was honest at all times with his communication and not promising anything he can deliver. My property was a challenging sell due to issues outside our control and which had previously gone through a previous campaign elsewhere for over 12 months. Yet despite these concerns James continually worked for many months whilst offering many valuable suggestions across the journey to increase the chances of a sale which he duly delivered. I was extremely impressed with James’ overall professionalism and would be definitely engage James for any future sales of a property.

Long term involvement

James partnered with us over a number of years in developing this block of units, not just as a selling agent but providing advise during planning and build. Despite the trials of covid lockdowns, I believe the outcome was enhanced by James' involvement up to and including the sale and lease of townhouses. GN
