James Clark

  • James listed and sold my home

      I am very thankful to our friends James & Christine for helping us get this house sold. They worked very hard to get it done!

    • James listed and sold my home

        We contact James to sell our rental property and he did a great job. His marketing was wonderful and he got us a pretty good price considering the neighborhood. We'll certainly use him again and would recommend him and his wife to anyone.

      • James helped me buy a home

          James was a crucial guide in this process as we had a bad roof. He recommended an FHA 203K which we didn't know about and now we have a house with a brand new roof. James even rode his bike on Saturday morning to our house to meet the contractors as his car battery died. Funny story but speaks volumes.

        • James listed and sold my home

            After more than a year on the market with other agents that couldn't sell our house, James & Christine reached out to us. We needed a fresh start with good marketing and they had a plan. They sold our house in less than 2 weeks and I was blown away at how they did it. True Professionals!

          • James helped me buy a home

              After looking at everything in Deland, James insisted we keep trying. He found one last property and it was the perfect match. He nailed not only the home but the community lifestyle. Thanks James & Christine, we love you guys.

            • James listed and sold my home

                James and Christine were our neighbors and they've sold alot of homes in our neighborhood so we hired them based on their track record. They sold our home quickly for a great price and would couldn't be happier.

              • James helped me buy a home

                  James & Christine endured showing us lots of different homes and were really paitient throughout the entire process. Ultimately we found the perfect home....Thanks Clark Team!

                • James listed and sold my home

                    I've known James most of my life and it was an easy decision to hire him to sell our house. His photos and video were amazing and made our place look like a million bucks.

                  • James helped me buy a home

                      Soooo glad that James and Christine were there for this transaction. The rehab is still an on going process but we're thankful to James and Christine for helping us buy our first home. We'll call you guys again if we outgrow this one :)

                    • James listed and sold my home

                        James & Christine are neighbors and friends and there was nobody else we were hiring. They sold our house quickly and even timed the purchase and closing on our next house to be on the same day. It felt easy but I know they worked for it and that's why we love them

                      • We cannot say enough great things about James and Christine. From our first interaction, we knew they were the right team to sell our home and get us the price we wanted. They more than delivered! Heck, they exceeded our expectations by setting a new record in the neighborhood. When things got a little dicey after we had a signed contract, James and Christine were right there to guide us, negotiate and ensure we got the sale across the line at the price we wanted. They are outstanding professionals who not only are hard workers and great at their jobs, but they are wonderful people too! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

                        - Patrick Healy, Oviedo, FL
                      • James was absolutely outstanding. I researched agents in the area and his track record stood out. He understood the market, our situation and what was important to us. He did a great job laying out and executing the marketing plan. He helped us with anything we needed to do to the property, both before and during the process. Once we started getting offers, James was clear in explaining the offers and making recommendations. It only took 6 1/2 weeks from listing to closing!

                        - Jim Schoeneck, Longwood, FL
                      • James and his team are amazing. We had some challenges selling our home due to the volatility in the current market (out of their control), however, these adverse conditions really showed a side to the Clark team that I did not get to see in our previous home purchase during a very steady market 5 years ago. The patience, ability to adjust and adapt to market changes, and level of solution oriented focus that we saw from the Clark team was incredibly impressive. They were such a pleasure to work with and they know how to win, which is what I want to see in an agent. They are top notch in my book! Thank you Clark team!

                        - Matthew K, Lake Mary, FL
                      • I was completely delighted with the performance of James Clark and the Clark team! James did an excellent job advertising and marketing my property. He produced a stunning brochure, and displayed beautiful online photographs and video walk through. Also, James and Christine are a pleasure to work with. They kept me in the loop with constant updates, and always responded to my questions within hours. I highly recommend James Clark to anyone seeking an expert broker!

                        - Deb O'Brien, Longwood, FL
                      • I am happy I selected James and was able to witness his true dedication, hard work and professional at all times. James prepared us for what to expect so there were no surprises. His expertise and knowledge about the business won our buyers back in less then 24 hours when they tried to back out of the deal. Go James!!! James' wife and other staff members were exceptional and I truly enjoyed working with all of them. James and his wife literally held our hand during the process and treated us like we were their only client while I know for a fact we weren't because he had other houses for sale in my very development.

                        - Jason and Shay, Apopka, FL
                      • They worked with us step by step. Very informative honest and helpful. They showed us the best way to achieve the price we wanted for our home. They know how to push the envelope and succeed with the goals set.

                        - Home seller, DeLand, FL
                      • Awesome experience with both James and Christine! Both were very knowledgeable and patient throughout the home selling process. They both have great energy and work hard for you as their client. If we stayed in the state we would have definitely used them to buy a home as well! 10/10 would recommend!

                        - Home seller, Deltona, FL
                      • James and Christine made the perfect team for selling my home. I could not have been more impressed with the professionalism they showed. From the first meeting, to the marketing, to the showings, it was all above and beyond. Would recommend them 100%.

                        - Home seller, Longwood, FL
                      • This company is amazing! I first tried to sell our home "by owner". I had the best of intentions, but not any real knowledge of how things worked. It was basically a disaster trying to do it all myself and the stress level was through the roof. Right off the bat, I knew I made a good decision with Alton Clark realty. The photography and marketing they did on my home was first class! They were even able to do a three-dimensional view so people could realistically see the house without actually being there. James and Christine were on top of every little detail and answered my questions quickly. Within 4 days we had multiple full price offers. Not to mention, one offer was even over asking price! Not even to mention we were able to close within about 15 days. Trust me, if you're seeking an agent to do the best for your interests, call James and Christine. And by the way, the people who ended up buying my home never even looked at the house in person, as they were from out of state. That is how good their pictures were for the listing!

                        - Home seller, Winter Park, FL
                      • Had lots of issues like Septic taking a dive before listing but James knew what to do. I was panicked but he helped guide me with a plan and it worked. Love the Clarks!

                        - Home seller, Sanford, FL
                      • My sister-in-law referred us to the Clark's and boy do we owe her now. The marketing definitely was impressive and definitely sold this house. This team will forever be our team going forward.

                        - Home seller, Apopka, FL
                      • Talked to James a long time about buying this home as an investment and finally did it. Love what the possibilities hold for this investment and will definitely be following his advice on renters. Thanks James!

                        - Home buyer, Altamonte Springs, FL
                      • The photos and video of my house were amazing. Glad to have had a quick sale. They went above and beyond and even coordinated a moving truck and James actually loaded the truck himself. Amazing Customer Service!

                        - Home seller, Maitland, FL
                      • Christine helped us buy our home and was very professional. She did a good job negotiating and dealing with all the issues that came up. Really grateful that she delayed her vacation to help get this closed. Hope she enjoyed her vacation, she earned it!

                        - Home buyer, Altamonte Springs, FL
                      • I was so grateful to have been referred to The Alton Clark Team. I live out of state and it was quite difficult to manage my property from across the county. They went above and beyond helping me with every detail. Their patience and persistence made the process for me very safe and secure. With gratitude I thank them from the bottom of my heart.

                        - Out-of-state home seller, Altamonte Springs, FL
                      • The whole group was very helpful and knowledgeable. They informed us of several things that we might have issues with before they became issues. That kind of professionalism helps make the process that much easier for us. Thanks again.

                        - Home seller, Maitland, FL
                      • If we ever go through the home selling and buying process again, we will undoubtedly use James and Christine again. I was thoroughly impressed with their knowledge of all the steps you go through in selling the house and the amount of effort they put in prior to us even listing. The pictures on our listing were hands down the best I had ever seen. I sincerely believe that is a large reason why we were able to sell for the amount we did. They were very upfront on how the process would go and we never hit a surprise on the selling side. Even with an erroneous appraisal that threatened our sale, the Clarks worked relentlessly to keep both sides engaged. On the buying side, James and Christine's knowledge of contract law and negotiating skills cannot be understated. I felt the entire time that our interests were being protected and that I could not lose. We looked at way more houses than we ever thought we needed to and Christine was happy to do so. We even put offers on three of them. All and all, we worked with the Clarks for about six months. Through this entire process, the Clarks were always responsive and helpful. We would and have recommended the Clarks to everyone we know. If we ever move again, they will be the first call we make. They are professionals at what they do and we thank them for making a dream come true for our family.

                        - Dan and Cathy Gunter, Apopka, FL
                      • Christine helped me through every step of the process. Kept in contact with the buyer's agent so nothing would fall through the cracks. Kept me informed every step of the way. Very smooth closing!

                        - Margaret K., Altamonte Springs, FL
                      • I have bought/sold 10 properties with the James Clark/Christine Clark team. They have always been very professional, effective in producing results, and very personable. I could not recommend them more for any buyer or seller. I am a professional investor and I have bought and sold hundreds of properties. This broker and this team is the best that I have ever worked with in my 30+ years in investing.

                        - Labros Hydras, Washington, DC
                      • We were using someone before we met James and that person would tell us we could see other houses, yet when we asked he changed the subject and never showed us another house. James was recommended to us by a coworker and I am so glad he did. We fell in love with the first house we saw, however we wanted to make sure that was the one. He then showed us 5+ houses and wanted to make sure that this was the house for us. But that is not what put him over the top! The side door of the house we wanted was broken. The home owners fixed it but then the door wouldn't open. He had the home owners fix it before we closed! I would highly recommend them to anyone that is looking for a really good person that actually cares about their clients!

                        - Corey Hurd, Eustis, FL
                      • James and Christine have done a great job for us every time we have needed to sell or make a purchase. They have helped us buy three properties and sell one.

                        - The Leischners, Apopka, FL
                      • I interviewed five different real estate agencies before deciding on James Clark. He was the only one that seemed more interested in my needs as a seller, as opposed to what they wanted to do, and in making sure the needs of the seller were satisfied.

                        - Edwin Pizarro, Deltona, FL
                      • The Alton Clark team had excellent follow up, were immediately available to answer questions and keep things moving quickly, and they made the process fairly easy. Mr. Clark was very responsive and demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism.

                        - S. Ahrens, Orlando, FL
                      • How do you rate a company above a "10"? Everything they did was first class and the best was TOTAL COMMUNICATION. I almost felt like I was their only customer. The honesty with which we talked about pricing throughout the process was clear, and they walked me through the closing process from contract acceptance to inspections and appraisals to actual closing. They were there all the way. Christine especially was awesome and was there when I needed her. She came and gave me all the info I needed, I felt extremely comfortable with her and never felt pressured to use them. They were AWESOME all the way through, with constant text messages when the property had appointments and follow up information about the visits. How many times can I rate this group a 10+?

                        - Dr. Adlai Green, Longwood, FL
                      • Everyone was so helpful. I couldn't have asked for another company to work above and beyond as everyone there did. We enjoyed the experience we had with the company.

                        - Donna Hurd, Eustis, FL
                      • I'm not located in Florida so the recommendation from a family member was important. James and his team were very easy to work with, making the process very seamless, which was very important to me as I live in Connecticut and was not able to be there most of that time. The online advertisement of the house was excellent and their ongoing reports on the activity of the showings always kept me informed of what was happening with the sale. They were open to ongoing communication when I expressed concerns with anything. I would not hesitate to recommend James and Christine to anyone who is interested in selling or purchasing a home in the Deltona area.

                        - Gloria Mooney, Monroe, CT
                      • Have bought and sold a dozen homes over the years and this was the only time I felt 100% secure and confident my best interests were first in their minds. It wasn't just all about... the sale. It was all about... the RIGHT sale!

                        - David Griffiths, Lake Mary, FL
                      • Mr. Clark was able to develop a great marketing strategy for our property which was a key factor for selling our home in record time and at the highest price.

                        - Alfredo Cartagena, Sanford, FL
                      • James kept us well informed on all aspects of our home sale. His advice on preparing the property was spot on. Our house sold in a week for a great price. I would highly recommend James and will certainly call him again for any real estate needs.

                        - Jean S., Apopka, FL
                      • I have never sold a home on my own. I felt that James was very patient and walked me through the entire process. I felt that I was in the best of hands; his knowledge and experience of real estate, how to stage my home and the advertisement was all top-notch. He presented my home in a way that made me even more proud of it. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family and would definitely work with him should I own a home again in the area.

                        - Michelle Bennett, Winter Park, FL
                      • James Clark's knowledge of the real estate market, his advice on staging our house for a quick sale, his marketing strategies, and his professionalism are just a few of the reasons we selected James as our realtor. We were extremely pleased with our experience with James Clark and his staff.

                        - Nancy Hecht, Longwood, FL
                      • Would recommend James and his team of professionals any time.

                        - Dennis Garrett, Home Seller
                      • We have worked with James and Christine previously. We have found no one more professional, diligent, competent and caring. This transaction was exactly the same. Very impressive.

                        - Marianna & Joe Stronko, DeLand, FL
                      • James Clark is a professional when it comes to real estate. He was super knowledgeable about our area and explained all the details to us. He provided in depth knowledge and examples of the housing market to help us. I would highly recommend James Clark as his attention to service is fantastic. He goes above and beyond with the quality pictures, videos, and drone work if you are selling as well.

                        - Steve Vantil, Apopka, FL
                      • James and Christine are the best Realtors I've ever dealt with.

                        - Russell Beck, Longwood, FL
                      • Came to the house on our first meeting with an answer to every question we had, gave great guidance on selecting a sales price that worked to everyone's advantage. I trust James 100%. Could not have asked for a better result.

                        - Terry Cashion, Longwood, FL
                      • James and Christine were excellent. Great local knowledge, fantastic marketing plan. Got 4 offers at asking price within 3 days. They even helped me donate furniture to a local charity. Highly recommend, you will be pleased. Great human being, serves his community, knows his job well. Perfect experience, I couldn't be happier. They made selling my home effortless.

                        - Jack G. Spitz, Longwood, FL
                      • Very pleased with the service, marketing and quick sale of my home. The process was seamless.

                        - Kathy Ploehn Warzocha, Apopka, FL
                      • Our experience with James was outstanding, especially under the very difficult conditions that we had to sell our house. We could have made even more money by trusting him more. Live and learn...

                        - Michel Biedermann, DeLand, FL
                      • Did not give anyone else consideration other than James and Christine. Honesty and professionalism are their standards.

                        - Joseph J. Stronko, Oviedo, FL
                      • Over the years I have dealt with 10 other realtors when buying and selling homes. James and Christine were significantly more professional than all of them. They are not just realtors/brokers, they are business people. They have great judgment and a keen sense of what was critical and what was not critical in the sale of our home. Their ability to negotiate the best deal for us, not just complete a transaction, is what sets them apart, in my experience. I have had realtors that handle the process like they were working for the other side, and/or just wanted the transaction completed, instead of looking out for our best interest and fighting for us. Not the Clarks, they are focused on what is best for their clients, not just getting a deal done! We sold two homes with them, and were extremely satisfied with them for both sales!

                        - Theresa Griffiths, Lake Mary, FL
                      • James & Christine were absolutely amazing. We are so grateful for them and could not have gotten this done with the terms we closed on without them representing us. Directly from the beginning when we received James' introduction video, marketing plan and estimated value based on his research of recently sold homes, we knew we were in great hands. The photo shoot for the home was done with tremendous detail to ensure we marketed the home at full potential. We were under contract within a week and it only took that long because we had multiple offers to review. They guided us through all negotiations and kept us informed throughout the process till closing day. If needing a real estate team to sell or buy, we would recommend James and Christine!

                        - Carrie Meyer, Home Seller
                      • I will always recommend this company to my friends and family!

                        - Dwayne Kvalheim, Winter Park, FL
                      • We interviewed 3 top sales brokers. James had a better and more professional presentation and was very knowledgeable of the area. He had a strategy to sell and gave us insight on how to better present our parents' home. James and Christine kept us informed. They were both very compassionate regarding the death of both of our parents. We appreciate all their hard work and would definitely use them again.

                        - Linda Pagan, DeBary, FL
                      • We wanted very much to live in Victoria Gardens. We were told by other residents in the community that James & Christine Clark were the most knowledgeable about this community. They took us to view every home that fit our criteria until we found the perfect one. They helped us through each step from purchase to closing. They made it a very easy process. We thank them for helping us find our forever home. We couldn't be happier.

                        - Jim & Diane Adler, DeLand, FL
                      • I enjoyed my experience with James Clark from start to close. Will hire again.

                        - Sandy Kaufman, DeLand, FL
                      • James was professional, knowledgeable and prompt in handling the sale of my property.

                        - Susan Bentz, New Smyrna Beach, FL
                      • James and Christine Clark are an exceptional team when it comes to genuine and current advice. They made the process of listing our home for sale seamless and non-stressful. Data was clearly presented with current up to date information on recent activity allowing determination of fair sale price taking many factors into consideration. They were very understanding on our request for showings given our need to care for a disabled family member, always showing respect for our special needs and time required to vacate the house for showings. Their team approach gets results: our home sold in less than 48 hours for full price, and this most likely would not have occurred without their guidance on getting the home market ready. James and Christine facilitated landscaping and handymen contacts achieving a timely presentation of the property. Both were available 7 days a week and response was always quick and courteous even when they were on vacation. It is without hesitation that I recommend James and Christine Clark for anyone considering the sale of their home. Even after the sale was completed they reached out to see how we were doing, now that's service!

                        - Frank Montoya, Sanford, FL
                      • When we first met with James to consider his services, we were pleased with the presentation and process review, which was given in a clear and concise manner. My wife and I were impressed with the information as well as the effort given to explain the current market details. We were very pleased with James and all the efforts with the sale of our home. The COVID 19 pandemic made things extremely difficult, but with his help, we were able to meet our goals to sell our home. James and his team were excellent to work with throughout this entire process. If I or anyone I knew was in need of a broker to sell or purchase a home, I would recommend him with no hesitation. I would give James and his team my highest recommendation for their services throughout the entire sales process. They are an outstanding organization, but most of all, they are excellent people that treat everyone with dignity and respect.
