Absolutely Fantastic Exprience

We have worked with realtors in four different cities over the years, and our experience with James was the best. He is a clear communicator, kind, and extremely responsive. If you are thinking about Desert Mountain, this is who you need to work with!

Great Experience!

Great Experience!

James is very professional, diligent, responsive and helpful. We live in Texas so couldn’t go look at houses whenever we liked. He helped us navigate which houses and lots were ideally located and suited for us. He helped us with the negotiation, the inspection and the closing as weren’t there for any of it. Highly recommended!

Exceptional Service

James was referred to us by friends and we are so happy he was. Being in the real estate market myself for several years, I am very particular. James is not only knowledgeable of the market and trends but is an excellent communicator, efficient, patient, low pressure and one of the nicest guys on the planet. James made the entire purchase experience stress free and, as we are from out of state, he handled all inspections and repair issues in our absence. He is just as helpful after purchase, finding us subcontractors, opening the house when necessary and even making arrangements for our rental while the house is being remodeled. We highly recommend James and the Kolander team.

James Kolander is Simply the Best!

James Kolander is Simply the Best!

We started working with James Kolander over a year ago. His knowledge and experience in the Desert Mountian Community was so impressive that we thought he was the only company representing the area. He drove us around and showed us some different amenities and clubhouses/restaurants that essentially sold us on moving eventually to DM. He was patient with us and kept us in the loop of upcoming properties and his guidance was so helpful that we found exactly what we were looking for just over a month ago. He has a great ability to market himself and his community through social media and is just a first rate guy!! His advice during the negotiation process was spot on and very valuable. Plus he’s a very good golfer as we had our first outing last week at chiraqahua golf course. He’s now not only our Agent, but our Dear Friend as well. Thanks James, you’re the Best!
