"A details oriented and passionate advocate for you inbuying a home
We met james as the result of a recommendation from a friend who is a Keller Williams realtor. What we found in James was a trusted professional who took all the time necessary to see to it that we were in the home we were looking for. While the first home ended up not being the one we would settle on. However, what it showed us is that James is not out to rush his customers into deals but instead strongly advocate for them. His honesty in such matters is so important to us and has made it easy for us to use him again in the future as we plan on another purchase in the next 2 years.
My wife and I could not more highly recommend James and his excellent team.

"Knowledgeable, intuitive and persistent.
From our first meeting, James was certain that my home would sell in a short time. I was doubtful, because while the house is solid, it needs to be updated from the mid-1980's style kitchen and needed lanai area updates. James was properly persistent and encouraging, providing the right guidance and "stick-to-it" attitude. Following his advice by making some simple presentation improvements did the trick. The home sold in a reasonably short amount of time at an acceptable price. James obviously knows what he is doing. Because of his stellar performance in handling my needs, I have already recommended him to a family member and a friend of the family. When they call him, I know they will be in good hands, Thank you James!"
-William (Seller), Client
"New purchase
My wife and I could not have asked for a better realtor. James helped us sell our house and get into a new build. We are truly grateful for him and his wife. Well his whole team. Without them we would not be in the house we have now. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts."
-Ian (Buyer), Client
"James Saffell
James did an excellent job. He was knowledgeable, compassionate and caring. I am confident that James was not in a hurry to just sell a house, but wanted to find the right home for us. On more than one occasion, he told us "we need to see with God's eyes, not our eyes and He will help us find the right place at the right time". James and Margaret Saffell were a true blessing and we wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a home here in the Brooksville area!"
-Kerry H (Buyer), Client
"Incredibly helpful and honest!
We wouldn’t trust anyone else with the sale (or future purchase) of our home. JAMES is honest and goes above and beyond to help! He is a solid worker and very knowledgeable. He did an amazing job selling our home in the middle of a pandemic, might I add, and made it stress free. I would recommend him and his team to anyone!

"Excellent Service
James is a top notch realtor! He is very professional & knowledgeable in all the different legal aspects of the buying & selling of homes. He is someone who truly cares about his clients. He walked me through a challenging move, including finding the perfect home in my price range in the area I wanted to live in, as well as selling the home I was living in. He exercised a great deal of wisdom concerning the housing market including the timing of finances needed for my particular move. I never felt rushed or hurried by James throughout this whole process, but felt confident as he guided me through the many steps of buying my new home, and the selling of my existing home. I had multiple offers on my home & sold it for above asking price. I highly recommend James to handle your real estate needs!"

James went above and beyond to help us get our home and not a house but our home. He was so awesome to work with and handled all our needs to
make this happen. He truly goes above and beyond
the excellence of service to ensure this was achieved. What an epic job you did Janes and thank you do much."
-Lisa S (Buyer), Client
"Top rated realtor
Our Texas realtor reached out to James when we decided to move from Texas to Florida. James went above and beyond the call of a realtor to help us find a builder, to picking up Greg from the airport with breakfast in hand and attending an all day design appointment. He was there from start to finish with the building of our home. Four years later we decided to sell our house. We knew right away, we would contact James. Using James knowledge of the market and his vast marketing skills, we were able to get our home sold quickly. James once again did not disappoint!

"James Saffell is the best realtor I have encountered in 57 years of owning homes
James was low key throughout. He did not push, he did not question unreasonably, he did not rush anything. James was professional ever. And is he experienced, oh yes he is. He has sold over 3000 homes and his approach and demeanor reflect this level of senior experience. I have move to Ohio, so out of his area, but recommend James to anyone seriously looking to buy or sell a home. And his wife and daughter used their solid experience to enhance the entire transaction."

They made themselves available to us everytime we needed them. I highly reccomend them to anyone looking to buy their next home."

If we are to buy another home, he is not only our first choice to represent us, he is the only choice.

James and Margaret Saffell are by far the best realtor agency around, Janes has handled 5 of our sales, 2 of our purchases.

"Our Choice Was Clear and Correct!
Where do I begin? When we first listed our home, we thought we could sale it on our own. Before we decided to go with a Real Estate Agent, we reached out to James who, with no obligation required from us, came to our house to give feedback on our listing. We quickly realized that we could not do this on our own and James was the clear choice of who should sell our home. I had a lot of anxious thoughts going into our big move and James was extremely knowledgeable, confident and reassuring throughout. He and his entire group absolutely know what to do to get the job done, and I could not recommend him highly enough!"
-Ashley M (Seller), Client
"We interviewed a few realtors in the area when it was time to sell my mother's home. No one else even came close to James' professionalism, expertise, and individual attention. His reviews were outstanding and I have come to learn why he is called, "The King of Brooksville.""
-Claire Chadwick, Other
"Other local residents had directed me to James Saffell. After meeting two well thought of representatives from other firms, I met with James.
He is a business person; he is professional; He was direct and honest - all valuable traits to look for in a real estate professional.
James delivered on each of his assurances - quick sale (3 days from listing) at full price. Furthermore, the work of his team toward closing was superb. A major reason for working with James is the quality of his backup team. All delivered, and closing was never in doubt.
From one who recommends others carefully, I heartily endorse the Beaches to Ranches team and James Saffell."
