James Shelby

I feel like this 5 star review will still not do justice for what James Shelby and his team did for us when selling and buying a new house in Temecula. James Shelby puts out a lot of video content about Temecula that we found online. My wife and I reached out to James on Instagram because he seemed extremely knowledgeable about the area but at the same time we were not wanting to commit to a real estate agent. We werent sure if we were going to move but felt that it was a possibility. We were completely upfront about our situation and asked if our budget was possible for the size/location we were looking for. He asked for a quick phone call and we agreed. After our first phone consultation, we were sold on James being our real estate agent. James was extremely honest and upfront from the get-go and gave us valuable insight and feedback on what we could expect. We had our house on the market a week later and that was due to our timeline, James wouldve had it up sooner! On the first day of our house hitting the market on a Friday morning, he had 2 showings that same day and several more scheduled that weekend! We had at least 20 showings that first weekend. One scheduled right after the other. A week later we had multiple offers! His marketing of our house was nothing short of amazing. He guided us throughout the entire process of selling our house while at the same time helping us to purchase our new house. Anytime I had a question, I would text James and had a well thought out response in minutes. I seriously asked him if he was using a 3rd party or AI to answer questions because of how responsive he was. I know he has many other clients but it felt like we were his only client! Our sold house closed escrow in 3 weeks! We needed a fast escrow to purchase the new build house that came up suddenly that we had to move on before we had sold our house. James moved mountains by working on our behalf to close escrow. He didnt have to but he was on the phone with our lender, buyers agent, homebuilder agent, and escrow companies to make sure the timing was right. James took those curveballs and knocked it out of the park for us. We love our new house that James had a big part in us getting and we couldnt be happier with the aEURoeabove and beyondaEUR? service we received from him. James made the sale and purchase of a new house in under a month such an easy transaction. It felt too easy but here we are a couple weeks later living in and enjoying our brand new home! My wife and I always feel that whatever we do, theres always room for improvement. We discussed what James could have done better but after 10 mins of racking our minds, we couldnt think of a single thing. The only thing we said was that we wish James was also a Loan Officer. James quality of service is such a contrast to what you typically encounter in real estate transactions and we wish everyone delivered as well as he does. We have already recommended him as a real estate agent to friends and family with one family member looking to use James as their agent this summer when they sell. If you decide to work with James, you will not be disappointed. If we decide to move again, I would not want to work with anyone else.

James showed himself to be the perfect gentleman and consummate professional every step of the way. From the very first time we contacted him by email to meeting him in person when we came out to the area to view various resale homes and new build developments, James was always helpful with information regarding the particular properties and area. Once we decided upon a new build with Woodside Homes at Sommers Bend in Temecula, he continued to support and guide us throughout the months-long purchasing process until our January 31st closing. He reviewed any and all relevant documents and answered any questions we had, helping with his expertise especially when things were unclear or frustrating. Whole-heartedly and without reservation, I can recommend James Shelby to anyone looking to purchase a home here in this area of Southern California.

James attention to detail, communication, professionalism, and real estate expertise is second to none. We originally came across James via his Temecula themed YouTube videosaEUR| reached out to him shortly after relocating to TemeculaaEUR| and James helped us find a home that was exactly what we were looking for amidst a low inventory market. And he was able to negotiate a significant difference between our offer amount and the appraisal to our advantage. Could not say more great things about James as a real estate agent and person; highly recommend!

James Shelby was referred to me through a mutual friend after a very unfortunate experience though a different agent. He made my home buying experience absolutely amazing. He was very knowledgeable, professional, and was always available no matter what time of day it was. I will 100% use him again for my next home!

I will defiantly call him for any of our future real estate needs.

I highly recommend James Shelby and his team for any of your real estate needs. Even while Ive as stationed overseas, James was awesome to work with and ensured our needs were being met in the process of selling our house. I was extremely impressed with his professionalism and the way he conducted business, he is extremely knowledgeable about the housing market in the valley and his marketing skills were top notch. I was not surprised one bit when he was able to sell our house in less than a week and above asking price as well. If youre looking for a realtor in the Temecula valley area, you will not be disappointed with James and his team.

James and his team are phenomenal! My husband and I had such a bad experience when purchasing our first home and it was the total opposite with James and Frida. Very professional, best communication & really listened to what we wanted. James helped us sell our first home for over asking price and helped us purchase our dream home. Our dream home had approximately 20 other offers and with James and his great skill we were able to secure our home. Highly recommend him and his team definitely has been a great selling and purchasing experience. His team made it seem so smooth and easy but we know there was a lot of work being done without having to stress us. So grateful for his service

It is without hesitation that I highly recommend James Shelby! My husband and I haven't had the best of luck with real estate agents, but that all changed when we met James Shelby. He is professional, knowledgable, honest, and truthful. He listened to our needs and never promised us something he couldn't follow through with. More importantly, he protected us through the entire transaction. Thank you James!

James sold my home a little while back and did an outstanding job! He was professional, knowledgeable, and just an overall pleasure to work with. He made the whole process as easy as possible. Would highly recommend him if youre looking to buy or sell your home!
