Jim helped us buy a house in Madbury, NH by remote-control from California. We did several virtual home tours by video call, and it worked out very well. We started with one visit where Jim gave us a tour and helped us figure out where we wanted to be. I found him to be knowledgable about the pros and cons of different areas of NH, and about house construction, and he added a lot of value to the process. He put in a lot of extra work after closing to get everything set up for us, since we weren't there in NH yet. Very experienced and pro-active, and I recommend him highly.

Jim Albert of Buyers Brokers of the Seacoast is the BEST. He is a true professional with the knowledge and skill necessary for you to successfully find a home in this crazy market. I immediately liked Jim when I met him because of his easy-going personality and sense of humor, but I was truly impressed by his insight, attention to details that I didn’t even think of, and his ability to guide me through the entire process without it ever feeling rushed or forced. He was always available and prepared. His skill was evident when I made my first offer for a home. He made sure everything was put together in just the right way to present us favorably. My offer ultimately was unsuccessful because of the nature of the current market, but the seller’s agent liked our offer, and Jim, so much,... Show More
Jim is an excellent realtor/buyer broker. He knows the real estate market, listens to his clients needs and makes good recommendations. He answers all of our questions and follows up throughout the process. He is always available. I would use Jim again and will continue to recommend him to family and friends.
We bought a home with only a FaceTime showing. Jim was insrumental and communicated well. I was referred by another Dedicated Buyer Broker.

Jim sets the bar so high for realtors. His honesty, skill,kindness, patience & empathy during a stressful and exciting situation, are amazing. I trust him completely because he is trustworthy. I can not imagine buying a house without his help. In this low inventory market, he helped us find the perfect place by sending us possibilities, dropping what he was doing to show us things, checking in even while on vacation and giving excellent info about each place. When the sellers realtor proved to be inadequate, he stepped in with information that benefitted the seller as well as us. He is just a stand up guy who understood our unique needs and helped us get a great house. He explained the banking process & the potential for having to bring additional $ to the closing if the appraisal... Show More
Jim has a calm temperament and lots of patience and experience, which is so necessary in today's market as a buyers agent. He is prompt at returning email, texts and calls and so thankful he stuck with us for the over 2.5 yr home search.

Jim is an outstanding agent. He helped us find our dream home in this uncertain market. We are first time home buyers and couldn’t be more grateful to have found Jim especially in this crazy market. He knows the market very well. He patiently held our hand through the entire process and also guided us on making reasonable offers. He has a background in construction so he could tell us right away about not just the repairs that would be needed but also how the procedure would go and approximately how much that would cost so that we could have that cost considered while putting in the offer. He is very responsive and he genuinely cares for his clients. We were truly blessed to have Jim as our agent. Jim is the best. We had a different agent when we started off and we had to let them go.... Show More
Jim did a great job working with us to obtain our property. He worked well with the sellers broker and communicated well with us during the whole process which made it a stress free and seamless. We recommend Jim highly.
Jim did an awesome job helping me find my new home. He kept in touch with new houses coming on the market daily and all the way through the purchase of the house. Very personable great for a first time buyer to work with. Was always on top of all the little details and kept me informed on a regular basis. I couldn't have been happier with him .

Jim Albert is fantastic. As first-time home buyers fighting through the red-hot 2021 real estate market, my partner and I kept saying how grateful we were for Jim. He knows the housing market, he knows how to make a competitive offer while still protecting the buyers' interests, and he guided us smoothly and patiently through the whole buying process. He got us our dream home against over a dozen offers. What more could you want from an agent?

I cannot stress enough how wonderful Jim Albert of Buyers Brokers of the Seacoast has been with helping me find a home!! This was my first home and I had no idea what I was doing. Jim was very attentive to what I was looking for, my price range, and walked me through the process to get me a home that I love. I would often times ask him if there was something about a house we were looking at that he would consider a walk away issue and he was open and honest all the while allowing me to make the final decision. He is extremely patient and accommodating with finding the right home and never put pressure on me to settle for a home that I had doubts about. He is also a fantastic negotiator, getting me the best price possible. If you are searching for a realtor that is looking out for your... Show More

Jim is a trusted advisor across the entire range of the home purchase experience. He understands the market dynamics and tells you the unvarnished truth about the situation. He knows when to push back when the seller's agent is being unreasonable and the same goes for the buyer as well. He's really good at setting expectations while taking the buyer's priorities in mind. Jim definitely works hard for his clients and is very responsive. He's developed a strong network of service providers to help with the diligence process. He's very patient, I had a very tight spec with a long list of deal killers so it took a while to find this place but Jim showed me a lot of different houses and locations to triangulate on priorities. Jim is also well versed in home maintenance / functionality and is... Show More
Jim was very helpful. He came to every house I wanted to look at and pointed out things that I would have missed, both good and bad. He has a lot of knowledge and that made me feel like I'd had a better look at a house. I would recommend him to anyone planning on buying a house.
Jim Albert is a NH local who knows almost everything about communities, properties, and trends across NH. Decades of experience that really paid off for us --- less experienced agents we dealt with were a disappointment.
He is a true professional and fantastic to work with. He was truly dedicated to helping us find the right house for us. NOT just a house. We worked together from afar for over a year before we moved back to NH and he was able to help for in person. And in a tough Covid market place he as able to get us into an awesome home just right for us in only a few months! I would definitely recommend him in finding your next home. But he was also very helpful in making us feel comfortable in our cross country move! Thanks again Jim!
Jim helped us in buying a condo in Stratham, NH. We did this all remotely. Jim, in NH, guided us, in NC, through each step which made it easy for us but a lot of work for Jim. He was very knowledgeable about the area, provided us with good advice, and was very professional throughout the entire process. We are very pleased with our new home and would highly recommend Jim as an excellent realtor.
Jim was great! He was especially knowledgeable of utility systems, structural details, and possible major repairs down the road. He is not afraid to point out the areas of improvement for every home, which was so helpful for us when weighing in those factors. During the closing process, he was quick to advocate for our interests and needs as the buyers. He has been representing buyers in real estate a long time and definitely knows the game!
When my husband and I decided to buy a house, we didn't even know where to start. Through a Google search, we stumbled across the name of Buyers Brokers of the Seacoast and was given the number for Jim Albert. From the minute we called, he walked us through the process with ease. There was never a call or text that went on answered. With every house we saw, we were given expert opinions and guidance until we found the perfect house for us. We could not have asked for a better experience or a more knowledgeable agent. I would highly recommend Jim to anyone in search of their new home. We not only found the perfect house; we gained a friend.

I have had the pleasure of working with Jim in buying two of my homes in Seacoast area. Jim is thoroughly professional and goes the extra mile in ensuring that the buyer interest is fully represented and always responsive. I was able to ask any questions however naive that was and he always had the answers for me. I would highly recommend him for any buyers in NH/Maine area. I would not even look elsewhere should I have a chance to work with him again. Five stars to him!!!
Jim was absolutely fantastic to work with. He was a true buyer's broker, always keeping our interests very much in mind, as opposed to an agent looking to close a quick deal. We looked to him as a voice of reason when we would sometimes get caught up in the emotion of home purchasing, and also relied repeatedly on his knowledge of the market and expertise as a sort of informal house inspector. He was always totally honest with us and a real straight shooter. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone house hunting in southern New Hampshire.

Purchasing a property has enough hoops to jump through as it is, and I think the house I liked was a more complicated situation than most. James Albert made the process as simple as it can get. He is very good communicating what is going on and what needs to be done. He also has background in some home improvements which is a huge plus. This was my first house purchase. If I ever need a realtor again wether it’s selling or buying, he will be my first call.

I have nothing but good things to say about my experience working with Jim to find a home in the seacoast area. Jim was extremely helpful throughout the entire process and had a great understanding of all things pertaining to purchasing the right home.

Jim came to us highly recommended from my aunt who is also a real estate agent. He was extremely thorough and very professional. He was honest, straightforward, patient, and helpful throughout the entire process. He helped us secure the perfect home for our family and budget. We would recommend him to anyone in search of a home!
I have a really wonderful experience working with James Albert. His excellent knowledge and expertise helped me find the very best condo I was looking for in a short period. I would highly recommend James Albert to everyone.
Jim took the time to listen to what I was looking for in a new home and kept me on track with showings and advice about potential future issues to think about with homes that weren't quite perfect in some way. I appreciated his 'let's talk about good and bad things' way of looking at homes. He helped me find a new home that I absolutely love.

Jim was so patient with us! It took us 4 years to find the right home and he continually answered all of our naive questions. His experience with home construction was extremely valuable to us. We know that if we have questions, even to this day (1.5 years later), he'll still be there for us!
Awesome agent..always on time.very knowledgeable..pointed out so many good and bad points we both missed..great guy
We took a long time finding the right house. We had very specific family needs. Many Realtors would have loss interest in us, but Jim is a not your average Realtor. He worked the problem with us, performed numerous showings, never wavered and got the job done.
Jim was a pleasure to work with.we were first time home buyers. He was upfront from day one and he really knew his stuff. And what the market was doing. He went above and beyond we must have looked at 15 houses over the course of a week or two. We recommend him to anyone we know looking to buy.

Jim was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and helpful before, during, and after the home buying process. His upfront honesty is world-class and he knows more about home inspection, construction, and possible issues than anyone I know. Highly suggest working with Jim.
We couldn't have done it without Jim! From the very first phone call with Jim, I knew we were in good hands. For nearly two years, Jim happily and enthusiastically came with us to each home, a shell of a home, or parcel of land. Jim trudged through the snow, mud, ice, you name it for us and would often point out things about a property that we didn't take into consideration. Jim consistently kept our best interests at heart and went OVER AND ABOVE, day in and day out, making phone calls to local town halls, providing historical data for properties and more for us. We couldn't have gone through this process as seamlessly without Jim and I recommend him without hesitation. I love our new home but I look forward to having the opportunity to work with Jim again!
