"Knowledgeable, intuitive and persistent. From our first meeting, James was certain that my home would sell in a short time. I was doubtful, because while the house is solid, it needs to be updated from the mid-1980's style kitchen and needed lanai area updates. James was properly persistent and encouraging, providing the right guidance and "stick-to-it" attitude. Following his advice by making some simple presentation improvements did the trick. The home sold in a reasonably short amount of time at an acceptable price. James obviously knows what he is doing. Because of his stellar performance in handling my needs, I have already recommended him to a family member and a friend of the family. When they call him, I know they will be in good hands, Thank you James!"

"James Saffell is courteous, professional, and is experienced and well versed in the real estate field. James had previously mailed a postcard to me introducing himself and his real estate company. When I had recently decided to sell my second home, I called James from my car when I was travelling there, and left him a message to contact me. He called back right away and made plans to meet me there to discuss selling this home. As soon as the home was listed, there were numerous offers and it sold right away. "

He was there from start to finish with the building of our home. Four years later we decided to sell our house. We knew right away, we would contact James.

"Other local residents had directed me to James Saffell. After meeting two well thought of representatives from other firms, I met with James. He is a business person; he is professional; He was direct and honest - all valuable traits to look for in a real estate professional. James delivered on each of his assurances - quick sale (3 days from listing) at full price. Furthermore, the work of his team toward closing was superb. A major reason for working with James is the quality of his backup team. All delivered, and closing was never in doubt. From one who recommends others carefully, I heartily endorse the Beaches to Ranches team and James Saffell."

"James is an absolute God send. We listed and sold a home with James and then bought one. In fact we were able to close on both properties on the same day. The experience from beginning to end was far different than anything I have ever experienced and this is the third home I have bought. Not only was James extremely helpful but so was his entire team. Margaret helped ensure we remembered things ahead of time like changing utilities. Elisabeth was also on point and ready to help at the drop of a dime. This crew is not to be beat. There is NO other like them. The ONLY way I would do a deal is with them. Save yourself the hassle and headache and just go with them."
