James is absolutely wonderful to work with. We listed our place and we were on contract in less than 45 days from the date of listing until closing and at asking price as well!

James Gillen made our home selling process easy, smooth and efficient. His guidance, hands on approach and help was very much appreciated. He was able to flex his style based on our needs. We can not say enough great things about him and we would highly recommend him 10/10 for anyone looking for a fresh perspective.
"ALWAYS RESPONSIVE"
Carmen McEnery (Buyer)
James helped us buy a home from out-of-state during a pandemic. He was professional, easy-to-work-with, and always responsive. We were very fortunate to have him as our realtor during an unusual time. He helped us get to know the area from across the country, and he gave us great advice. We would recommend him to anyone.
"KNOWLEDGEABLE"
Buyer
My husband and I are very happy with our first home buying experience, in part due to the help we got from James. We started out with a different realtor, but switched to James when she went out of town for the winter. We were a little nervous switching to someone else since our first agent was amazing, but James turned out to be just as good. He was very responsive, and knowledgeable about the process, and patient with us as this was our first time navigating the real estate market. We are very happy with our new home, and grateful that we had James to help get us to this point. Highly recommend him for all of your real estate needs!
"LISTENED TO OUR NEEDS"
Emily Varner (Buyer)
James was a huge help to us first time home buyers! From the moment James picked up the phone he was able to answer general inquiry questions and got us into a few viewings within days. He listened to our needs and wants and didn’t push us into anything we didn’t want. Within a week James had us an accepted offer under budget and under asking price! He walked us through every step and made sure all the boxes were checked. We highly recommend James Gillen III for your home buying needs!!
"AVAILABLE FOR ADVICE"
CJ (Buyer and Seller)
James was a great real estate agent to have for a first time home buyer! He broke everything down to help me fully understand the process. He always looked out for my best interest and was available for advice and for home tours whenever I need. Would highly recommend him!
"HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM"

James Gillen III was wonderful to work with. He took the time to get to know me and what I was looking for. He was very helpful in finding me the right home for my needs.
