Excellent experience in every aspect. 10 stars!

We listed our home for sale with James which had an accepted offer in 4 days. James steered the ship all the way. He is the consummate professional with keen knowledge of the real estate business and connections to all other trades and professionals that you might need while selling your home. James was always available to answer questions, extremely responsive and helpful in every aspect. From priced right to closing - he is "the man." Look no further. Sign him up!

James followed up with every step of the way. Even after, he kept checking up on us to make sure everything was OK. He is very experienced, knowledge and professional.

Market expert with extensive reach

Market expert with extensive reach

My wife and I worked with James twice in 2025, (once as a buyer and once as a seller). In both cases I believe he was responsible for achieving the best outcome possible. We purchased a house in Point Pleasant Beach that he brought to us before the broader market saw it, and then sold our house in Middletown within 3 days above asking. He has great contacts in the industry and good command of the market price point across a large are of NJ. He has a very positive attitude, low pressure, and is easy to deal with. He is well respected across the industry and has our strongest recommendation.

Outstanding -James Ward

We hired James Ward because he is a local realtor who understands the luxury waterfront market. He communicated well from Day 1 in a professional, caring manner. He has a quarter of a century years of experience and it showed with multiple offers. We are extremely satisfied with the sale price. Along the way, he always asked how we were doing and to notify him with any questions that inevitably arose. He truly cares about his clients every step of the way. We will only use James Ward as our Realtor going forward. He is simply the best!

Awesome buying & selling experience

Awesome buying & selling experience

I couldn’t have asked for a better agent than James to sell my property. He really separates himself from other agents in that he fully knows & understands the market and has the ability to marry that with your interests and desired price range. In a tough market, James successfully managed the selling process - finding and handling discussions and negotiations with many savvy buyers, including real estate investors, for a super smooth process. I also previously bought a property with James as my agent for another great experience that he led me through. He's a very trusted partner for me and I highly recommend using him as your real estate expert in buying/selling/renting a property. James is the consummate real estate professional.
