About

Meet James

I grew up, and live in Victoria. I live and breathe this gorgeous city and the quality of life it provides.

I have over 16 years of experience in marketing and sales industries, with many of those being successful in the Victoria real estate market. As a local real estate agent I’m able to capitalize on getting the most out of your investment and time. I use my diverse knowledge of marketing trends in Victoria's unique neighbourhoods and effective strategies in negotiation to succeed in a challenging market.

From condos, to family homes and investment properties, I am dedicated to getting the best for my clients.


Local expertise

My knowledge and understanding of how houses are constructed, maintained and how to evaluate their condition has naturally led me to specializing in residential housing in Victoria, BC. In the last 7 years I have also been immersed in the sales of new and previously owned condo and townhouse developments.

In Victoria, it is very important to be able to understand and fully evaluate the financial reports and the newly legislated depreciation reports. There are many hidden details in purchasing a house or a strata property. Working with a specialist like myself can be the key difference in making a great investment.


Leverage my local expertise and relations

The goal with all of my clients is to find their perfect property. Victoria is my home, and I want it to be yours as well.
