Cardiff by the Sea Real Estate Statistics
“James, A big thanks to you for all your hard work and success with Cottage and Lapis. Lapis was a struggle with the lender but it would have been a lot harder on us if Cottage didn’t go as smoothly as it did. I brag to all our friends/family that we put the house on the market on a Friday, open house that Sunday, and under contract Tuesday. That’s why you’re the best in the biz and we are very grateful for your services, advice, attention to detail, and prompt follow-up.”
“James, you are SO wonderful, simply wonderful. Honestly, I can NEVER thank you enough for all you have done for us. You are incomparable, as an agent and as a man. I am proud to know you, and I would treasure being able to always call you my friend. Thank you, thank you a million times over – that is not enough to express to you how I feel about everything you’ve done. You’ve held our hands and smoothed our feathers. There will never be another like you. So, OF COURSE you are Number One!”
