With 40 years of experience in residential property and two decades as a professional Buying Agent, James brings exceptional depth, insight and instinct to every client search. His track record spans over £100 million in acquisitions, from prime apartments to substantial family homes and landmark residences exceeding £10 million.

James began his career in estate agency across Berkshire, Surrey and prime central London, gaining first-hand knowledge of the capital’s evolving residential landscape. His experience includes leading roles in South Kensington and Chelsea with two of the area’s most respected agencies, as well as a tenure heading up the Block Management division of a Chelsea firm, giving him rare expertise in property structures, leases and long-term value.

Since joining Garrington in 2006, James has established himself as a buying specialist known for his thorough and methodical approach, as well as his in-depth knowledge of both the London market and its agents. Whether advising on a lateral apartment, period townhouse or modern new-build across London’s prime neighbourhoods, clients value his honest guidance, measured judgement and calm assurance throughout the buying process.

James lives in south-west London with his family and is often found on two wheels, either cycling through Richmond Park or previewing new instructions at speed on his moped. His clients benefit from a style that blends experience with discretion, confidence with curiosity, and above all, a genuine commitment to helping people find the right home, in the right place, on the right terms.
