James Christou
Sales Consultant/Auctioneer
Enthusiastic and enamoured with the world of property, James Christou places total transparency and client satisfaction at the core of his success.
Sharing the down-to-earth, easy-going nature of the agency as a whole, James has grown up entrenched in the local community. A member of the family behind The Park Hotel, he attributes his affable demeanour to countless hours chatting away, getting to know people, with resulting relationships an ideal foundation for a blossoming career in real estate. An asset to the team in every sense, James joined his then-girlfriend, now fiancée Ali Dowling at YPA, with outstanding work ethic and people skills seeing him quickly become one of Wyndham City’s most successful property professionals.
Always grateful to and motivated by those entrusting him with the sale of their home, he places the utmost importance on keeping clients up to speed, with the right decisions and best results built on being informed. No stranger to before-hours training at local gym NSpire HQ, a 4am wakeup to catch a Manchester United game, or train ride to the MCG to cheer his beloved Magpies, James values his downtime, often enjoying quiet Sundays alongside Ali and their two aptly named cats, Posh and Becks.
10/10! Best agent in the business! James was so easy to deal with, has incredible market knowledge, was available to answer any questions after hours and made the process of selling our home so easy. He sold our house within 72 hours of hitting the market (for a competitive price!) You won’t find a better agent to sell your home in Wyndham !

JAMES CHRISTOU IS ONE AMAZING AGENT!
I sold my house with James in a very tricky and emotional situation. Not only did James go above and beyond to have my house sold in a record time of 5 days, he was also extremely sympathetic to my situation and took any stress out of the sale that he could have for me. James isn’t just another agent, he cares about his clients and does whatever he can to assist. Any day at any time James was available and if he couldn’t answer my call on the spot he got back to me in no time. Our first purchaser could not get their finance approved and James had another offer ready to be signed on the same day. My situation was very fortunate as we had several offers, but James worked tirelessly to ensure those offers were available. I am very grateful for James and would highly recommend him to anyone 🙂

James sold our property before it hit the market with his excellent network of connections. He delivered on his promise, and we were extremely happy.
He is honest and reliable and would recommend his services to anyone that is wanting to sell their property!
Well done!

Excellent communication and thorough service above and beyond. We were incredibly happy with the service provided by James, especially given we were overseas and had to have some major renovations done prior to sale. James was professional and thorough with everything he did and communicated regularly with us through the entire process. We wouldn’t hesitate recommending him!

James was an absolute lifesaver during one of the most challenging times for our family. We were tasked with managing and selling the family home. James handled everything with incredible professionalism, sensitivity, and efficiency.
From the very first meeting, it was clear that James understood the emotional and practical complexities of dealing with an estate sale. He was compassionate and respectful, always prioritising our needs and comfort. James took the time to explain every step of the process, ensuring we were informed and confident in our decisions.
His expertise in the Werribee real estate market was evident as he provided a thorough and realistic evaluation of the property. James managed the entire selling process seamlessly, his attention to detail and proactive communication made the process smooth and stress-free.
We are incredibly grateful for James' hard work and compassion. If you need a real estate agent who is not only highly skilled but also truly cares about his clients, James is the one to trust.

Efficient, transparent and GETS THE JOB DONE! James is an all-round good guy! He is honest, doesn't mince his words, tells you how it is, although some may not want to hear the truth about their property however being transparent is what gets results in sales and in turn, a good reputation! James is the type of professional I like to work with. He keeps you constantly updated throughout the entire process without being that annoying 'sales person'. He works tirelessly for you. My second transaction with James and I honestly cannot speak highly enough of him. His work ethic, respectfulness and understanding his client's needs are attributes that make him the legend he is! Thank you for changing our world James. You deserve all the success the industry presents you with!

I recommend Kirsty and James to be the agents to sell your house. Kirsty and James worked hard to obtain the best possible price in Wyndham Vale. Both Kirsty and James both have the positive energy and enthusiasm which directly obtained a great outcome I was comfortable with. They are both passionate and committed real estate agents. Congratulations Kirsty and James on a job well done.

What and AGENT!
We had doubts working with YPA, but then, in walks James Christou… Selling our house with James was an absolutely marvelous experience, James communication with us was terrific, always keeping us in the loop daily, and answering any questions we had promptly. His passion is on another level. We worked together cohesively and James understood our needs, because he listens, and that we believe is key to a fabulous agent. James doesn’t go in to try to get a quick sale, he works tirelessly for the best one. Definitely highly recommend James Christou and will direct anyone wanting to sell their home to give James a call. We feel other REA’s could take a leaf out of James’ Book. YPA Werribee have an absolute asset in James, Thank you James, job well done! All the YPA Werribee Team, have been a pleasure to deal with.

Patricia (sam) Anne Sheahan
Seamlessly easy
We chose James to manage our sale based on his knowledge and enthusiasm. We were impressed with how much he knew about the area and quietly believe he eats, sleeps and dreams realestate. He kept in constant contact with us and gave hints and tips on how to present our home for sale. It sold within a week for the price we wanted and we couldn’t be happier. We highly recommend James to anyone thinking of selling.

James’ service was amazing. From first meeting to sale and after he was very open, honest and kept in constant contact. Even after the sale he kept in contact to assist in any way he could. Although we didn’t buy our new house through James he gave us his honest opinion and his advice helped us get our house at a reasonable price. We would highly recommend James whether you are seeking to sell or buy. We cannot recommend him highly enough and would given him 10 stars if it was possible.

James was great to deal with start to finish. He was extremely helpful and welcoming, particularly as a first home buyer being new to the ropes.
He was also very easy to get a hold of, working outside of standard hours, which can make all the difference when purchasing a property.

James was fantastic. He helped us through a difficult sale process and achieved a much better outcome than we expected. He was very professional and always kept us in the loop.
Lindsay Swinden
James was excellent to deal with. Watching and listening to him interact with my daughter, answering all her questions and putting her mind at ease because she was a first time home buyer, was reassuring as a parent. He was always responding to her texts or calls and then came the open house inspections. He shared expertise, he didn’t overwhelm her or us, so you could really tell he cared. Well it wasn’t long before my daughter found her first home all thanks to James. I get my weekends back now
Frank Fabbian
James was excellent, he understood what we were seeking, he was professional, polite and more importantly, he was true to his word which is reassuring in today’s environment. He’ll be my first call when come back into the market. Thanks so much James.

Loi Tong
James was really lovely to deal with. He was able to make the whole process quite seemless for someone who didn’t know what they were doing and answer all my questions
Vanessa Fabbian
James was fabulous to work with. Listened to my needs, handled everything calmly, even when there were some frustrating hurdles. He didn't just wait for people to roll in straight from realestate.com, he was on the phone before the listing went up, receiving offers prior to the campaign. The property sold on the first open. He called me to let me know he'd got the price I was after, but then called me hours later to let me know he'd negotiated more. He did need to go that extra mile but he did.
Stephanie Strangis
James was professional, friendly and helpful. He also knew the local property market very well. He reduced my stress during buying my property and was a great communicator. He was also very reliable. I was very happy with his help. Big thanks to James. High recommenced James to my friends and you.
Daisy Hsiao-Feng Liu
James was protessional and attentive from my first inquiry through to being sold. I'm a very busy person and often difficult to get hold of, but James communicated extremely well and gave good logical reasoning for how we should progress through the sale. I would definitely use James again in the future.
Thomas smith

We gave James a challenge, which he confidently accepted...and completed beyond our expectations. He managed to sell our house off market within a quick time frame, and managed to get a price that we were extremely happy with. James was always professional, yet down to earth and available when ever we contacted him. We would highly recommed James to anyone looking to sell their home.
John
Local real estate agent with excellent market knowledge and very professional. Went above & beyond to ensure the sale of our home.
John
James attended our first meeting well prepared and was honest about what price could be achieved. He gave advice on what kind of buyer would be interested in the property and whether it was worthwhile financially do do anything work in the property prior to listing, We took his advice on going with an Auction rather than private sale and are we so glad we trusted him! The sale price well exceeded the reserve price but that really came down to James’ hard work on getting as many people registered bidders in the 3 weeks we gave him to market the property. Would not hesitate to go with James and YPA again.
Michelle, Shaun & Tracey
Energetic, enthusiastic, and has very good people skills. We were very happy with James as he kept us notified about what the feedback was on our property. We felt he was very honest.
Thank you James for getting us the best result for our property.
Carmen & Greg
Great service and highly qualified
Alam
James was a top bloke throughout the process of us buying our home. He was thorough, on time and was able to answer all of our questions.
Highly recommend James
Adam & Remi
Very happy with his professionalism and energy and getting us a great result on our property
I would be more than happy to recommend James to anyone who is looking for an agent to sell their property.
I didn’t know James prior to interviewing him to sell our property. What struck me straight away with James was his good positive energy, this is who he is, as it didn’t change throughout the selling process, along with his honest feedback and professionalism, even after the property was unconditionally sold. We were able to achieve what I believe was an outstanding result in a short period of time owing to his ability to negotiate with potential purchasers.
A very professional, high energy and more than capable agent.
We had a great experience with James
Colin & Vesna
We have used James for several property sales over the last 12 months. An agent who is willing to go above and beyond for his clients. If your looking for an agent who is efficient, reliable and listens to his clients then this is your agent. We have referred family to James who had previous failed experiences with others and James got the best results and within weeks. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to get the most from their agent.
Amanda & Anthony
Very Competent and Knowledgeable of his Local Market
James has a great personality and professional attitude with a quality that as a seller or buyer gives you confidence you have got the right guy.
Geoff & Michele
It's been great working with James! Not only is he super friendly, but he has also been incredibly helpful throughout the process of us buying our first home. I've really enjoyed our conversations, they have helped eased the stress of entering the housing market for the first time!
Jessica
We had the absolute pleasure of buying our family home through YPA Werribee recently and both Jordan and James who were selling the property were a delight to work with. They were friendly, professional and we never felt pressured or rushed into any decisions. They respected our wishes and were always available to answer any questions we had. We would highly recommend and thank both Jordan and James for such a great experience throughout the entire process!
Simon
I was more than happy with James and Jordan from YPA. The purchase of my property was made extremely easy with their professional assistance everything went smoothly.
Cheryl
Experience doesn’t always equate to capability. James may still be relatively new to the industry, but his passion, dedication and drive are second to none. We were kept informed and provided with a seamless experience where every step of the way was clearly explained to first time sellers! Can’t recommend highly enough!
Fiona
I need to start off by saying, "It has been great to work with James on my first house purchase and I was lucky to find him".
Right from day 1, he has been very professional. He is also very prompt and kind in answering all of the questions that any first home buyer would have.
It is not easy to find people with these two qualities!
Being the first home buyer, I had lot of questions and concerns. James was always there to address all of those, this allowed me to take better decisions without any hassle.
His prompt responses have been making it easy for all the necessary parties to communicate too, without any issues.
James would be the first agent I would personally recommend to anyone I know.
And of course, he is one of the best agents I have ever met.
Thank you James.
