James' clients include both buyers and sellers across the entire DMV who rely on his extensive knowledge on the various jurisdictions, neighborhoods, and even individual blocks as they navigate their home sale or purchase. They also benefit from his innate ability to walk into a home and immediately see beyond its current state; identifying ways to transform spaces and homes to meet the needs of a specific buyer, or to appeal to buyers writ large on behalf of his listing clients. This skillset is invaluable to his buyer clients as they decide which home would be the best fit for their needs, as well as to his seller clients as they prepare to list their homes for sale. And he's more than just an idea guy as well. Often, his clients will enlist his expertise in managing renovations on their behalf--both before and after the sale. His dedication, attention to detail, and willingness to jump in and do whatever is needed, have made him a trusted advisor to his clients. It's not uncommon to see him sweeping out basements or garages, troubleshooting a finicky HVAC system, or even installing a new faucet.
