If you have ever had the pleasure of meeting James, you'll quickly understand what separates James from others.
His charisma, enthusiasm, quick wit and upbeat nature are a winning combination. Born in the East of London, you could say it’s in his DNA.
James has been in sales his entire life, for over 27 years, since he was 15 in fact and he’s very good at it. His real estate career began back in 2007 in the face of a recession. Arguably the hardest time to start a career in real estate. On reflection, he says, "It was the best time to start. You had to be tenacious, innovative and think outside the square”
It's that positive can-do attitude that made him rise to become one of the top agents in Bream Bay over his 7-year tenure (2007 - 2014).
In 2014, lured by the mountain biking explosion, he moved to action-packed Rotorua and started all over again. Within 5 years he again became one of the top agents in Town and was awarded top salesperson for Ray White Rotorua, along with other awards for community involvement and the prestigious "Elite" badge only a select few in the Ray White Group internationally achieve.
James has incredible ability to connect and engage with all walks of life. His down to earth manner is his trademark.
James is also a vibrant Auctioneer. It's his passion, and it shows. James thrives on the pressure to perform and he delivers; renowned in the area for setting record street prices time after time.

Be prepared to fall in love with the tranquillity and harmony of life at the river's edge.
Elevated three metres overlooking the river and planted esplanade, your outlook will be one of envy. The river is a wildlife refuge to the many seabirds that frequent. Built in 2012 by "Generation Homes" this carefully thought-out brick home with extra loft storage is practical and dependable, drawing in light from every available angle through numerous double glazed windows and sliding doors.
There are two living areas, one separate allowing you to shut off and curl up peacefully with a good book. The other connects to a covered alfresco area where you'll eat and drink with family and friends all summer long while gazing at the river.
The kitchen is central, social and well equipped with adequate drawers and cabinetry, served with a long island breakfast bar and adjacent to a roomy dining area where the whole family can gather around an six-seater table.
Each of its three bedrooms will take a queen bed, the master will take a super king. Wake up to the morning chorus of birdlife with views of the river from your bed. What a delight!
Gardens are lush, colorful, well established; designed for easy care. Complimented by an outdoor power point amongst the greenery (with handy inside switch) to add a water fountain and an opportunity to illuminate and display their magic at night and to keep them looking lovely, there's a water tank with pump that collects rain water from the roof.
Here at Waitaha you'll feel like you've gone away for a relaxing weekend, every weekend, carrying that relaxed vibe with you every day.
A few hundred metres down the road is Ruakaka's shopping centre, medical centre and cafes. And let's not forget the endless white sands and shimmering clear waters of Ruakaka Beach. So close you can hear the surf from home.
This is easy living like you wanted, as though you dreamt it. Time to make it a reality. Carpe Diem.
