"Top rated realtor Our Texas realtor reached out to James when we decided to move from Texas to Florida. James went above and beyond the call of a realtor to help us find a builder, to picking up Greg from the airport with breakfast in hand and attending an all day design appointment. 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. Using James knowledge of the market and his vast marketing skills, we were able to get our home sold quickly. James once again did not disappoint! Verified by RateMyAgent"

  -James and Roxanne Yarbrough, Client

"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!"

  -William (Seller), Client

"Our Choice Was Clear and Correct! Where do I begin? When we first listed our home, we thought we could sale it on our own. Before we decided to go with a Real Estate Agent, we reached out to James who, with no obligation required from us, came to our house to give feedback on our listing. We quickly realized that we could not do this on our own and James was the clear choice of who should sell our home. I had a lot of anxious thoughts going into our big move and James was extremely knowledgeable, confident and reassuring throughout. He and his entire group absolutely know what to do to get the job done, and I could not recommend him highly enough!"
