James Morris

James was amazing and went beyond what I expected. His background in construction gives him a leg up and he always had the best suggestions when looking at houses. He was very honest and patient when it came to finding the home that was right for us.

I worked with James since Zillow has suggested him to me. I was a first time homebuyer, and James really helped me navigate through this overwhelming process. Thanks to his knowledge of the local market and good understanding of potential competition, I was able to buy a single family house in a desired location and the good layout within my budget.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with James on our acquisition. We were new to the US homebuying process so he took a lot of time walking us through all the steps, highlighting what was critical and what was less of a priority for us. This really helped us navigate through this overwhelming amount of information. He helped us put together the best offer for the house, leveraging his extremely strong knowledge of the local market and his feel for what competition would be like. We were dreading the process but he made it a truly exciting and enjoyable experience thanks to his responsiveness and fun personality.

James put in the special touches that landed us the winning bid. He initiated conversations with the neighbors and asked us to write a letter about ourselves and who we were to the sellers. James also recommended one of the best lending officers which put us in a great position. We had a winning team behind us and successfully purchased our new home!

We moved to the Bay Area in mid-November, after three months of searching, we will be moving into our California dream home at the end of this week. We honestly don't think this would've happened so soon and so smoothly without James Morris. James is very knowledgeable, patient, persistent, and a true advocate for his clients. We are so glad we found him and would highly recommend James to anyone looking to buy a home in the Peninsula/Silicon Valley. James goes the extra mile, knocking on doors to get a better sense of the neighborhood, doing well though important analysis to come up with the sound pricing strategy, and even socializing well with the sellers agents to establish a great rapport for favorable consideration. His knowledge of the market and the area is encyclopedic. Check out one of his market update videos to get a sense of how well James understands the housing market. Again, we highly recommend James to any home buyer!

We were very glad to have James as our realtor. Zillow suggested him to me and from that moment to even after closing, James had worked very professionally. He was very responsive even before and after hours. The process went very smoothly and bought our condo at the listing price. He was also very helpful in whatever we needed.

I've worked with James twice now and been very impressed both times. First time was buying a property, and just recently selling that same property. His expertise in real estate transactions made both transactions easy and quick to close. He walked me through the process each time, was clear on what was needed from me when and we had zero issues during both transactions. He always made himself available any time I had questions and was able to advise me on next steps every step of the way. I HIGHLY recommend him!

My wife and I are relocating to the Bay Area from NYC and we somehow got connected to James and are so glad we did. He has been extremely helpful, knowledgeable, responsive, and kind. He has provided us with daily listings and communications on purchases as well as rentals. He has also offered sound advice, researched properties we have been interested in and made calls on our behalf to other agents. Additionally, he provides video market updates that offer a macro view of the Silicon Valley housing market. After virtually touring numerous homes and interacting with a multitude of other agents, James is a true real estate professional that is a breed apart from all others. We feel that James has our best interests in mind and he has earned our trust.

My husband met James by chance at an open house and liked him immediately. Since we were currently living in San Francisco and don't have the flexibility to visit open houses, James lined up back-to-back showings for us on a weekend we were in South Bay. On the first day I met James, he had arranged for us to see three houses. He made the process fun with how quirky and blunt he is. James used to be a general contractor so he'd notice details about a house and point them out to us. He definitely knows his stuff and we trusted him immediately. When we were in the third house that day, I turned to him and said 'I love it. What's next.' And from there he did his thing, stayed up late with us to put together an offer and 28 days later, we were homeowners. With how hot the market is right now, we were nervous this house hunt would drag on with dramatic bidding wars, having to offer well over listing price and we'd experience a lot of heartbreaks. But with James, none of that happened. We were able to buy our dream home and stay within our budget. Everything was quick, smooth, and easy and we're already recommending him to our friends looking to relocate from San Francisco to South Bay.

James went above and beyond over and over with us. James had a process of introducing us to neighborhoods and helping us figure out how much our money was worth in each neighborhood and what our actual values were. In this market, you probably can't afford everything you want, so working out the balance of your needs really helps, and James is good at helping you work through it. He gave us blunt assessments of the properties we were interested in, pointing out key structural problems that I wouldn't have noticed. I'm pretty handy and I think I know stuff but James has contractor experience and is at another level. Just that advice would have been an extremely valuable education. He was very low pressure, adaptable, and understanding. When he thought a property would cause us problems he let us know and valued our time. His estimate of where offers would come in was right on. James recognized the games that sellers are playing now with low asking prices and could predict which places would go 20%+ over asking so we didn't waste our time. I've followed up, and his predictions were really good. James was really low pressure, which I very much appreciate. When we waffled or when we wanted to make offers that were below his predictions, there was no pushback or judgement. When we made our final offer, we weren't quite the highest, but the combination of preparations we had made and conditions we could offer due to Jame's advice on how to get set up to make the purchase made ours the winning bid. After the offer was accepted, he continued to work with me on things that made our purchase experience better, like finding a reputable HVAC person to install air conditioning. He knows tips and tricks I would never have discovered. He met us at the new property 3 or 4 times in the three weeks between escrow and closing to help us work out things like that. James also has a great network of contacts and helped me find someone who could get me a great deal on my loan. Pick James, you'll be in good hands.
