Review for Member: James Oksen Jr
ZillowVERIFIEDI could not have asked for anyone better to help me with my home search. James was extremely helpful and knowledgeable throughout the process. A big thing for me was his availability, he always made time for viewings and always answered my emails and calls when I had questions. He really cares that you find the place that you're comfortable with and doesn't pressure you into buying just so he can move on to the next client. I had some unusual circumstances where I wasn't around during closing and he made sure everything was taken care of while I was away. I will undoubtedly be contacting James if/when the day comes to sell my home.

ZillowVERIFIEDI recommend James to anyone selling a house. He was always well prepared and willing to help in any way we needed. His communication throughout the process was excellent. We had problems with a buyer and ended up moving out of town before the house sold - James went over and above expectations helping us deal with the situation.

ZillowVERIFIEDJames Oksen is absolutely great to work with. I have bought and sold homes with the help, advice, and direction of James. He answers every call, text, and question I have without hesitation. I highly recommend working with James for any and all real estate needs you may have.

ZillowVERIFIEDJames executed the sale of our home with courtesy and professionalism. He is extremely responsive and took the time to explain all aspects of the transaction. We would recommend him to anyone wanted to sell their home. Additionally, our home sale took place during NC stay at home orders due to COVID-19.

ZillowVERIFIEDJim Oksen made my home-selling experience virtually painless, and I certainly got more than I expected as a sales price. He turned what could have been a very stressful experience into an enjoyable process. I'd absolutely recommend Jim to others without any hesitation.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe worked with James to sell our home and he did an excellent job! James is a professional - he is well organized, was very knowledgeable of the housing market in our region, and was the voice of calm and reason when events occurred that impacted our house sale and closing date. His guidance and counsel was great, and it all worked out as he suggested. James did a fantastic job in price valuing our house to list for sale. The listing price was aggressive and very market competitive. The home went under contract within days and the buyer's appraisal of our house confirmed their purchase price. We knew James's wife from another venue and when we told her that we were interviewing realtors to sell our home, she gave us one of his business cards and said that her husband was "a good man". We would agree, he is a good man and was an excellent realtor - we highly recommend James for your real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDJames didnt just show us a couple houses. He presented us with a variety of houses in various areas within the 30 minute commute range we were looking for. James told and showed us the pros and cons of the neighborhood's and was so helpful in making sure we knew all that was out there. His knowledge of the area is amazing! Honestly we couldnt have hoped for a better realtor!

Review for Member: James Oksen Jr
ZillowVERIFIEDJim is the BEST! He helped us to sell our house and to purchase a new home. When we were relocating, Jim drove over 90 minutes to show us a house and made the trip several times for us without hesitation. He is prompt in responding to emails, texts and phone calls. He has a great deal of knowledge to bring to the table, he has a lot of great contacts to get you to the closing table quickly. He is a USAA preferred real estate agent and being veterans, this was important to us. He stays current with the latest home trends to best serve his clients in this very busy market. I would highly recommend Jim, you won't be disappointed.

ZillowVERIFIEDIt was a pleasure to work with James purchasing our new home. He made our relocation experience easy and painless even though we gave him a broad and eclectic range of homes and locations. He guided us to an area we currently love and are delighted with our choice. Most importantly, James made us feel like friends and had our best interest in mind. I highly recommend James and will be grateful for his professionalism, benevolence and integrity. Thanks James!

ZillowVERIFIEDJames was very patient and attentive during our search for a new home. I think James also did a great job representing us and our old home that he also listed for us. I would highly recommend Jim to anybody looking for a home in the Raleigh area.

ZillowVERIFIEDJames did and outstanding job for us in all aspects of finding and closing on our new home. He went above and beyond from recommending local services and really just helping us take care of details that he really did not need to do but chose to do. Thanks a bunch James! Thanks, Brad Stout

ZillowVERIFIEDIf you are looking to buy or sell a home, Jim is the agent that you want. Although I was interested in the property, the fact that Mr. Oksen called me personally within about a minute of me clicking on the button on the website for more information is what motivated me to see the house. I was so impressed with both Jim and the property, that I instantly retained Jim as my own agent to purchase the property. Within about 28 hours Jim had helped me find a lender and get a signed contract on the house. I could not have asked for a more trustworthy, hardworking, devoted person to represent me. Not only is Jim the best agent in the area, you could not ask for a better guide for what might otherwise be a very stressful process. Thanks to Jim, I have my dream home, and was able to enjoy the home buying process!

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a first time home buyer I would say that Jim (James Oksen) was completely professional in every aspect and went above and beyond excellent service. He provided my wife and me with all the information we needed to buy the exact house we were looking for. Additionally, he showed true working knowledge of the surrounding Raleigh area by informing us of what areas were safer, cleaner, and would hold market value. He worked with us at least 2-3 times a week for 6 months as we searched for our house. Jim was more than willing to work around our work and school schedules to insure that we were both available to view the houses. Many days he was willing to stay and talk about not only the houses we were viewing, but also other real-estate investments that my wife and I had considered. When we finally chose our house, he made sure that we were always informed of any changes from the seller. Moreover, he helped us negotiate changes to the contract, that we needed, in order to complete the purchase. I would personally recommend Jim to anyone who is looking into residential or investment real-estate in the Raleigh area.

ZillowVERIFIEDJim not only was able to find a buyer for my home in which a previous realtor could not, but also got me in contact with another good agent in another state we were moving to that helped us to find our new home.

ZillowVERIFIEDJames is one of the best agent my husband and I have ever worked with. We only dealt with him over the phone and through emails being we have already relocated from the house he helped us sell. He made us feel like selling our home was one of his top priorities. He was always quick to respond and answer all questions we had. Also felt like he had our best interested in mind when it came down to some crazy negotiations with our buyers. We would highly recommend him to anyone in the area.

ZillowVERIFIEDI could not have asked for a better agent to assist me and guide me through the relocation process. I was relocating 450 miles away and Jim made the process as smooth as if I had been just down the street. He provided great advice and was very helpful in keeping the sale process moving along. This is something that I would not have been able to do easily from so far away.

ZillowVERIFIEDOur bank, USAA, referred us to the Caldwell Bankers office of Howard Perry and Walston at which time we met James Oksen Jr., Jim (as he prefers to be called), turned out to be one of this years great blessings. This will be the 5th time in our 47 years together that we were going to go through the drudgery of finding a new home. We soon realized that Jim was indeed a very special man. He knew the area very well and had a wealth of knowledge about many of the homes up for sale. We dragged him through many more homes than he would have chosen but Jim continued to demonstrate patience at every turn. We were very pleased to learn that this man not only was the consummate professional but a real gentleman as well. Thanks to Jims hard work, all our worries were put to rest early and we are now living in our new home. John & Linda Davies, Clayton, NC

ZillowVERIFIEDWe were looking to sell our house quickly because I had to relocate quickly for my job. Jim worked with us to get it on the market as soon as possible. We received 2 offers in 2 weeks and got what we were asking for. Thankful we chose him as our realtor.

Review for Member: James Oksen Jr
ZillowVERIFIEDJames did a great job locating properties and did extensive negotiations to work on acquiring the property at the best price. He had to take several price offers to seller in order to facilitate the cost of repairs needed for the property being covered in the selling price. I would highly recommend James for his hard work, integrity and determination in doing whatever it took to close the sale. James is personable and easy to work with and worked professionally throughout the entire process.
