As Vendors, James impressed us from the start of our sale process. Before our first meeting, James did extensive homework on our property and presented to us having a surprisingly good knowledge of our property and of both the current property market and of selling properties. This all proved most helpful in the process. James was consultative over all decisions made in our sale process. Nothing was ever too much trouble. He was always available, responded quickly to all queries and gave us really good feedback throughout the process. We felt he was always working for us as the Vendors. We had met James previously with another property transaction and did like his manner and low key approach, never pushy or aggressive with prospective purchasers. He was very knowledgeable and responded to all requests. We have no hesitation in recommending James to any prospective vendor and are happy to discuss our experience with any potential client.

What turned out to be a challenging sale of our fairly high end Wanaka home couldn't have been handled more expertly than it was by James McElrea and his colleagues at Harcourts, Wanaka. This was one of those properties that had to wait for "just the right buyer" and it took quite a long time for that buyer to arrive. On the market for a little over a year meant a great deal of input by James. Many, many open homes for him to attend, many interested parties to follow up on and report to us about and a great deal of interaction and strategising with us as the process evolved. James handled all aspects of this tricky process with grace and enthusiasm and never wavered from the ultimate goal of achieving an appropriate outcome for us, his clients. Well done James and thank you - it took a while but we got there! Rik & Juliet Deaton

James dealt with our house sale and our tenants with compassion and delivered the sale by the deadline with a price that we were happy with.
