James Buy Sell works across Melbourne’s top-end property market from Kew to Toorak to Albert Park to Brighton, supporting you with expert advice that helps you make smart decisions.
We’ll take a detailed brief and help you zero in on what you really want from your next home.
We’re specialists at finding, and buying homes others cannot, including properties that aren’t for sale. We will help you secure a home in an Expression of Interest, off market, private sale and at auction, even if the auction is this weekend. With our bespoke service, we can be as involved as suits you.
We’ll partner with you to take control of the sales process, providing end-to-end guidance and representation.
Our multi-list approach means your property is shared with several of the best agents in your area rather than listed exclusively with a single agency. Selling this way exposes your home to more buyers, attracts more offers, and delivers higher sale prices.
We’ll help you buy a new home while simultaneously selling your existing property.
Our full-service buy-and-sell model sees us liaise with agents, property inspectors, architects, banks, solicitors and more – so you don’t have to. Running concurrent buy and sell campaigns protects you against changing market conditions; we’ll negotiate same-day settlement whenever possible.
Ali and Craig Tiley had relocated to Melbourne from the US and were unfamiliar with the local property market. They were looking for support to demystify the Australian way of buying and selling property which is very different to the US model they knew.
We developed a shortlist of potential homes and a buy recommendation. By encouraging them to look beyond initial impressions and consider the inherent value of the home they chose to purchase, Ali and Craig were able to buy into a premium Brighton location two minutes from the action.
The most interesting property I’ve ever sold was 9 Towers Road, Toorak, in 2016 which at the time set the Victorian record – a little over $26 million. It was designed by Wood Marsh architects and it was so unique. There will never, ever be another one of these again. It was like a sculpture that you lived in.
