James Private Client Briefings contain far greater and more client-specific detail than what you see below and are available for full service James Search and
Negotiate clients throughout Melbourne.
Contact us: For a private, confidential and no obligation discussion on what is really happening in your street, precinct and suburb from a buyer’s perspective, contact Architect Adam on 0413 318 079 or Gina on (+613) 9804 3133 or
0457 835 255 or Mal on 0408 107 988 from James Buyer Advocates.
Alternatively if you see us at an open for inspection or an auction please feel free to come over and say hello – perhaps we could send you a buyer rating, a result or simply open diaries and work out a time to sit down and talk about the market, values, negotiation, alternative homes or your needs from a buyer’s perspective.
For the record each of us is involved in 2 to 3 homes, around 20 inspections and attending/assisting/bidding on up to 4 auctions on a weekly basis – all in that specialist $M+ price range.

Bidderbuzz Auction
"A big Super Saturday crowd gathered to see auctioneer Andrew Hayne hold court, quite literally, in the huge backyard of this house. What transpired was a frenzy of bidding from three bidders (initially) to bring the property on the market at $3,270,000. Then things got serious! Two more bidders entered the fray to create one of the most dogged contests I've seen. Almost half an hour later, a final sale price of $3,330,000 was achieved. A grand slam performance from Mr Hayne!" (Doug Paget)
Biggest Sale: PRAHRAN, 4 Grandview Gr
Jeremy Fox (RT Edgar); Under Hammer, $4,570,000 - 3 Bidders "This was a Super Saturday sizzler! Three determined bidders contested for this breathtaking property after auctioneer Jeremy Fox kicked things off with an opening vendor bid of $4,000,000. It was a little slow at first but the action heated up as the third bidder chimed in. He eventually secured the property for $4,570,000 and that sparked applause from the 130 onlookers." (Doug Paget)
Biggest Pass In: TOORAK, 7 Grong Grong Ct
Justin Long (Marshall White); Passed In: $2,700,000 - 0 Bidders "Auctioneer Justin Long was on song at 7 Grong Grong! He did an admirable job of selling the features and location of this townhouse but it didn't strike a chord with the crowd. As a result the property was passed in for his opening vendor bid of $2,700,000." (Doug Paget)
