• Great result with James Yahl We would highly recommend James Yahl as an agent who looked after us throughout the whole marketing campaign. He displayed a very firm knowledge of the local market and kept us informed of developments every step of the way in a most timely fashion. He was highly professional in his approach and provided much needed help in preparing our house for the sale. (Philip Dwyer)
• In the last month James has been acting as our agent in the sale of our house in Pymble and the purchase of a boutique apartment in St. Ives. James has always acted in a very professional manner and achieved excellent results. Having dealt with him both as purchasers and as vendors, we are in an excellent position to provide a very positive account of his professional dealings. As purchasers, James secured our new property for us with a minimum of fuss and accommodated our interests in a very professional way and with a minimum of tension and delay. As vendors, James developed a superb, comprehensive marketing plan, brilliant photography and an excellent video (in which he presented our property in a very positive and persuasive manner). His advice regarding presentation on open days was “spot on’. James displayed exceptional negotiating skills in securing a sales agreement at this time. In summary, we would recommend James to anyone wishing to sell or buy a property on the North Shore. James said that he would ‘make it happen’ for us, and he did. (Sandra and Ian Hutton)
• communication throughout the campaign was exemplary. James and David are supported by a very strong cohesive team and we have no hesitation in recommending them. (Mark and Maria Rivers)
• James made the process of selling our house so smooth. We first engaged with James some 6 months prior to putting our house on the market. We had never sold a house before and needed insight into the market so we knew were making the right decision. James was very thorough in presenting comparable sales in the area and guiding us through this decision process. While we took the time to prepare our home for sale James kept in constant contact letting us know of similar properties as they were listed and then sold. He has an great contact network across the all the St Ives property market. This is not limited to just Savills but other agents operating in St Ives. Jame's communication skills are exceptional. During the lead up to placing our house on the market he remained in constant contact and was always available to answer any questions or concerns we had. Once our house was listed for sale we heard from James every day. It seems like he never stops working. He would be in touch first thing every morning and then towards the end of each day with updates on what was happening. He is very personable, approachable,has a warm and positive nature. James remained the ultimate professional through the entire process of selling our house. His tireless energy and genuine care for his clients is amazing and we highly recommend anyone selling or buying property in or around St Ives to speak with him. James didn't just stop once he had sold our house. He heard via his contacts of a new listing that was about to come on the market that he thought would suit our needs. We shouldn't have been surprised when it got listed and he was 100% correct. James then proceeded to stay engaged through the purchase of our next house even though it was being sold through another agent. He remained engaged right the way through till we exchanged contracts on our new house. We highly recommend James Yahl. (Phil and Eleanor Johnson)
