We had the absolute pleasure of working with James and his team when we recently sold our home. James was highly recommended to us by a neighbour who sold with Meridien a few years ago. They had been so happy with his services that we called him as soon as we considered selling. James proved to be a true expert in the real estate field and achieved for us a fantastic result and we could not be happier with the process. It also helped that James is a genuinely nice person who at all times through the process demonstrated his integrity, always kept us informed and helped us understand all we needed to know. Nothing was a problem for James and he helped us out in so many ways.I highly recommend James and his team to anyone about to sell their home as you will definitely be getting to work with an exceptional real estate agent and team.   Larry and Bronwyn Gillespie

We would like to take this opportunity to again thank Marianne and her fabulous Meridien Team for their extreme professionalism, commitment and outstanding service during the sale of our family home. We have always kept a keen eye on the market and have always considered Marianne to be the best in the area. Well, we were correct! From the moment Marianne walked into our home, we felt an instant rapport with her. Marianne is straightforward, honest, ultimately professional and extremely experienced, PLUS she has a warm maternal nature and a fantastic sense of humour! The perfect mix of qualities for the perfect agent for us, we trusted her implicitly and she was AMAZING! Our whole experience with Meridien was FANTASTIC! It wasn’t just about the sale, which was remarkable – obtaining the Highlands Estate Record with just 2 Open Homes & 2 inspections, achieving the price we wanted PLUS the delayed settlement we requested - it was also things like engaging a professional stylist to provide that extra “wow factor”, giving advice on when best to sell, and creating an exceptional marketing campaign with brilliant photography, video link, beautiful signage and the all-important descriptive narrative about our home – highlighting all its features, creating that crucial interest for potential purchasers to come and see it for themselves! We would like to also say a HUGE thank you to Alexandra (Meridien’s Marketing Manager). Alexandra’s professionalism, attention to detail, efficiency and experience whilst coordinating our entire marketing campaign were second to none! Marianne and the Meridien Team were truly AMAZING and exceeded all of our expectations. It was a wonderful experience and there is no one else we would list our home with.   Sharyn & Mark Latham-Callcott

I would rate Meridien and James Holvander’s knowledge, professionalism and service as the premium real estate agency in the Hills. From the very beginning of my parent’s listing, he stood above the rest in the way he absolutely cared, advised and guided my parents through the whole process from pre listing, listing, open home inspections and the final sale process.A true gentleman of the industry and his warm affable personality endeared him to us all and prospective purchasers. I would certainly recommend Meridien and James and will certainly be using them once again in the future. A++++ Wonderful!!   Joseph Fimmano

Nerida and I are so pleased we choose First Meridien Realty to sell our house. At our first meeting with Marianne we knew we had the right person to do the job for us. Her openness and frankness about our house , the area, the market situation was appreciated and proved to be correct. Marianne's input into details as to what we needed to do for the open houses was excellent.She is ably assisted by Alexandra in Marketing in running an efficient real estate business who have the clients interest at heart. The feed back from each open house and from parties showing an interest was always helpful and timely. We are very happy with the outcome.    Mike and Nerida Ferris
