Excellent service - long standing relationship

Excellent service - long standing relationship

James is without a doubt the most professional real estate agent I have worked with. Back in 2010, I viewed a property James had listed. The property wasn't for me, however he proactively contacted me a few weeks later with another property similar to what I was looking for, which was listed with another agent. He arranged for me to view and I subsequently purchased it, all with his assistance. I rented the property out some 4 years later and Bourke's handled this for me. James has kept in touch over the years and I didn't hesitate to contact him when the time was right to sell this property. Listing to offer took less than 2 weeks and the service James provided during this time and over the last 9 years has been second to none. James knows Como and knows his stuff. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Positive outcome in difficult selling conditions.

Positive outcome in difficult selling conditions.

We live in the country, 400k from Perth. All contact with James or his team was by phone or email. He was able to achieve a fair price for our townhouse in Como in a buyers market. I was impressed with how he went about the listing and selling of our property and would certainly recommend him.

Points of Interest, warts and all!!...

Points of Interest, warts and all!!...

We listed our Axford Street property in Como WA with James Thompson and Bourke's Real-Estate at the worst possible time, whilst the WA housing market was still falling and the interest from buyers was at it's lowest level, but that was a decision that I made, because I believed that if the property looks great, the price is realistic and the area is a popular one, then the market will still move a property even if it is a little slow. James supported our decision and planned an excellent marketing program and kept us buoyant and optimistic during the process of selling. It took a little while, but with James's support and regular communication we had the most enjoyable experience that anyone could hope for and we actually achieved a price a little over our expectation, which was as far as we were concerned, great work from James and the Bourke's team. James and Kirsten did and excellent job in every possible way, their manners, outlook, and demeanor was positive, extremely supportive and even good fun along every step of the way. There is no way I could not or just would not recommend James, Kirsten and Bourke's Real-estate in any way and we are so appreciative of the pleasure we enjoyed with the best agents and agency, during what is considered to be one of the most stressful times for most people, but definitely not for us!!... Thank you one and all P.S. There were absolutely NO WARTS what so ever, so please pardon my warped sense of humour. Colin & Sue Naughton.

Buyer review
An agent that has taken on too many properties

An agent that has taken on too many properties

Our experience with James was all good until we signed the contract. It appears James has taken on too many properties and on multiple occasions did not return calls or reply to emails rather preferring to let his efficient PA deal with everything. He offered to have the house cleaned before we moved in as a "gift" - did not happen, then called on settlement to say he wants to drop around a "gift" the next day - did not happen. Never expected anything from him but don’t like when people say they are going to do something and do not follow through at all. Yes we were the buyer and he was not working for us but he has definitely lost a future client in us.

Visited home 3 times, but little reaction to our first 2 visits, no queries about reaction to house and no offers of other houses we may like to look at. Good reaction after 3rd visit and sale process handled well. Post sale service very good

We found James a delight to deal with. A true professional. Very knowledgable and is very aware of the local and community real estate market. At all times we found him very courteous , friendly and helpful. We would have no hesitation in recommending James to any member of the community to attend to their real estate needs.

Excellent Communicator!

James is a fantastic Sales Agent whom I entrusted to sell my first ever home. He is a fantastic negotiator, excellent communicator and secured the sell price I was chasing. James is well presented, and show cased my property to the market with a fantastic marketing campaign which really worked for the type of home I was selling. I will definitely use James as my selling agent again in the future, highly recommended.
