Charles Mot 2026-08-25

Helped Charles Mot to buy a condo in Surrey in 2026.

We had an excellent experience working with James Hau to purchase our first home. From the very beginning, James was extremely clear, knowledgeable, and communicative, and he made sure we understood every step of the process. Things became quite complicated with the seller, and what should have been an exciting experience became very stressful at times. James took a great deal of time to walk us through our options, explain everything clearly, and help us make informed decisions. His expertise, experience, and calm approach made a huge difference when we needed it most. We’re incredibly grateful to have had James representing us throughout the process. I honestly couldn’t imagine going through such a complicated purchase with someone who didn’t have his level of knowledge and experience. My wife and I would highly recommend James to anyone looking to buy a home, especially first-time buyers. He truly went above and beyond for us!

Mindy 2026-08-25

Listed and Sold a townhouse in Vancouver for Mindy in 2026.

James is an absolute professional and a fantastic realtor, who listens to our needs and find many creative ways to make things happen, especially in this tough real estate market. We came to James after more than 6 months of listing our property for sale with very little traction and professional differences with our previous realtor. We were extremely selective when we made the decision to switch and we are extremely glad we made the change to James. He was a breath of fresh air with innovative ideas and solutions attuning to the market. He is proactive, keeps us updated every step of the way and organizes open houses and viewings consistently without having us to worry about losing momentum and following up. We highly recommend working with James in your journey to buy/sell a home as he puts his clients first and is incredibly knowledgeable.

Calum Timpany 2026-08-15

Helped Calum Timpany to buy a condo in Richmond in 2026.

James was outstanding throughout the entire process of finding a home to purchase for myself and my wife. He is knowledgeable, takes his time to understand your specific needs, and will work to get you the best deal possible. We had been working with James for 1-2 years before finding the right place and were primarily browsing homes just to get a better understanding of what we wanted, while we waited for the right moment. That is to say we were not serious buyers by any means. Despite this, James would put maximum effort into any queries or properties we brought to him. When we finally viewed the home that we ended up purchasing, we were just casually viewing it. Again, James came prepared. He looked into current offers, property history and similar properties in the area. When we viewed the home we instantly fell in love with it and we're ready to buy. James knew exactly what to offer to give us the best chance, and walked us through every step of the process for purchasing to make sure we were prepared. In short, if you want to buy or sell property, you can't go wrong with James Hau.

Pablo Torres 2026-07-27

Helped Pablo Torres to buy a condo in Richmond in 2026.

I honestly can't recommend James Hau and Prostha enough. We were first-time buyers trying to navigate the Vancouver and Richmond market right around the time we welcomed our new baby. Having a team we could actually trust meant everything to us. They were incredibly patient with our busy schedules, organizing back-to-back weekend viewings to accommodate our long commute, and keeping us constantly updated. What really stood out about James was his strategic mindset. He didn't just show us places; he dug into the strata docs, warned us about leasehold nuances, and gave us real talk about pricing and seller motivations. When we finally found our townhouse, we ended up in a multiple-offer situation. James knew exactly how to position us to win. Even better, after the inspection, his sharp negotiation skills got the sellers to agree to replace the radiant floor furnace and the hot water tank. He even went out of his way on possession day, coordinating to hand over the keys on a Friday afternoon so we could celebrate properly at home. We are so happy our paths crossed and that we put our trust in them. If you need a Vancouver agent who truly has your back at every step, James is exactly who you want in your corner.

Sulmas 2026-03-16

Helped Sulmas to buy a condo in Vancouver in 2025.

James is such a wonderful person. I’m so grateful he was the one who guided us through the process of purchasing our first home! From the moment I first spoke with him on the phone, I knew he was going to be lovely to work with. He is incredibly attentive, caring, and truly listens when you speak (and I talk a lot) Not only was James great throughout the entire process, he’s also extremely knowledgeable. During our viewings he was able to provide so much helpful detail, whether it was about the homes themselves, upcoming developments in the area, or asking those pesky (but very important!!) detail questions to the showing realtor that we wouldn’t have even thought/known to ask. We are so beyond happy that we met James and had the chance to work with him. It was such a pleasant experience from start to finish and I truly couldn’t recommend him more. We’re excited for the next purchase one day so we can work with him again!

Sherry Hunt 2026-02-16

Helped Sherry Hunt to buy a condo in Vancouver in 2026.

Working with James was such a great experience! As a first-time home buyer, I didn’t always know what to ask or look for. James was very helpful in guiding me through the process and making sure the right things were being considered. He’s professional, knowledgeable, asked the right questions, and always explained things clearly, which made me feel much more confident. He is also genuinely friendly, and fun to work with :) I would definitely recommend James to anyone looking for a great realtor.

We are so lucky to have met James as we embarked on our journey to find our next dream home. We had found our dream home before we were even set up to sell and we were very concerned that we could lose out. James was super responsive and supportive while setting realistic expectations. With James’s advice and tireless efforts in showing our place we were able to sell in time to get our dream home! We really appreciate his thoroughness and consultative approach. He answered any questions we had big or small about everything, at all hours of the day. We really couldn’t have done it without him. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell!

Our experience working with James Hau PREC to purchase a condo unit in Vancouver was excellent. Throughout the whole process, James was very knowledgeable, helpful, and incredibly supportive. His expertise helped guide us to make our decision on our purchase, and his kind but professional manner made the transaction a very positive experience. James was very attentive and made sure to get us the best deal, made sure we had all the information, and was always in touch and on top of things. He was well prepared with every meeting we had, had all documents and other professionals lined up when needed, and everything was done quickly and efficiently. It was a total pleasure working with James, and we highly recommend him as a realtor.

William and Jane 2025-08-02

Helped William and Jane to buy & sell a home(s) in Vancouver in 2025.

We had the pleasure of working with James Hau on both the sale of our condo in Coquitlam and the purchase of a duplex in Vancouver. The market in 2025 was particularly challenging—especially on the condo side—but James consistently demonstrated adaptability, from adjusting pricing strategies to creatively targeting open house times to stand out in a crowded market. James is a timely communicator, a skilled negotiator, and extremely well-connected in the real estate community. He took the time to understand our unique situation and tailored his approach accordingly, which we truly appreciated. Throughout the buying process, James provided us with a wide range of listings and open house opportunities, and went above and beyond by attending numerous private showings with us. He always came prepared with executive summaries of comparable sales and market stats, which helped us make confident, informed decisions. What stood out most was how James consistently thought and acted in our best interest. He was a true advocate throughout the process, always ensuring our priorities were front and center. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in this market.

James Hau expertly helped me navigate the diverse Vancouver housing market. He actively listened to my concerns and noted my needs to advise me on a potential home. His knowledge of future developments is invaluable in lessening the possible impact on any future lifestyle. James is easy to communicate with and made the home-buying process enjoyable.

Naureen Khan 2025-04-11

Helped Naureen Khan to buy & sell a home(s) in Vancouver in 2024.

I met James Hau through my husband and his family as they worked with him earlier to sell their place in Richmond and downsize to a condo in Yaletown. They all had such an amazing experience with him that when it came to our turn to sell and buy a place in Vancouver we completely trusted James to do the best for us. Not only is he highly professional, but every conversation with him made us feel comfortable and at ease. Throughout the entire buying and selling process, James was always well-prepared and thought through every detail with our best interests in mind. His knowledge, attention to detail, and patience sets him apart from all or any other realtor, making him a rare find in the industry. If you are planning to buy or sell a home in Vancouver, we highly recommend working with James, for an excellent end-to-end real estate service.

Kosta 2025-03-29

James' level of service was exceptional. His suggested listing pricing was accurate, his communication was timely, and he got my place sold quickly during a less than great market.

Harrison 2024-04-05

Helped Harrison to buy a condo in Port Coquitlam in 2024.

James and his team are the best! We had been house hunting and worked with one realtor group who didnt take much time to work with our specific needs. My wife found James Hau and everything changed for us! James took the time to talk with us multiple times to see what we were looking for and he set us up with some of his agents, Dilbir Dhak and Richard Truong, and a broker, Shen Wong. They were so helpful, proactive and communicative and spent so much time with us. Richard has helped us find and secure a place in Port Coquitlam and we are so excited! We highly recommend James and his team!

Samantha Edwards 2024-04-05

Helped Samantha Edwards to buy a condo in Port Coquitlam in 2024.

Working with James Hau to purchase a condo in Port Coquitlam was a great experience! From the start, he really took the time to get to know us, our interests, values and what we were looking for in terms of a home. He is also very knowledgeable about the market and explained things very well. He and his team are very personable and hustled to get everything ready for us or to even just explain processes and terminology - buying a home for the first time can be very overwhelming but James and his team made it easy. They do everything with your best interest in mind, not just because they want to sell you something. I am really glad we found them! Shout out to Shen Wong, Richard Truong and Dilbir Dhak as well! Highly recommend!

I recently had the pleasure of working with James Hau as my realtor in Vancouver, and I cannot express how grateful I am throughout the entire home-buying process. He not only educated me about crucial factors I had not considered before but also exhibited impeccable attention to detail. His expertise ensured that I made well-informed decisions at every stage. What sets James apart is his balance between providing clients with space and freedom while offering invaluable support. He understood the importance of allowing me to explore properties at my own pace, yet he was always there to answer questions, address concerns, and provide useful insights. This blend of independence and support made the entire process enjoyable. I highly recommend James Hau to anyone in search of a realtor in Vancouver.

Anna and Myles 2023-11-26

Helped Anna and Myles to buy a condo in Vancouver in 2023.

From the very first encounter, it was evident that James Hau was not just any realtor. As first-time apartment buyers, we were admittedly uncertain of the journey ahead. James changed all that with his unparalleled expertise and deep knowledge of the real estate market. One of the most impressive aspects of working with James was his commitment to keeping us informed. He meticulously walked us through every necessary step, alerting us to upcoming costs and actionable items, ensuring there were no surprises along the way. His negotiation skills are nothing short of superior. James efficiently handled the communication with the sellers side, ensuring a swift closing of the deal. It's clear that his decades of experience in the field have honed his abilities in this regard. Beyond his professional acumen, James' personal qualities truly set him apart. His courteous and polite demeanour, coupled with an extraordinary level of patience, made our home-buying journey not just successful, but enjoyable. We wholeheartedly recommend James to anyone looking to purchase a home. With him, you're not just gaining a realtor; you're gaining a trustworthy guide who will lead you with confidence and expertise. Thank you, James, for making our dream of owning a downtown apartment a reality!

If you are looking for the best of the best, there's no need to look further because James Hau at faithwilson Christie's International is the only person you'll need for top line real estate services. With so many agents in the Lower Mainland, it can sometimes be difficult to choose who to work with. Almost everyone in Vancouver knows someone who is a realtor, but it is important to choose the right person with the experience and passion when it comes to such a large financial transaction. I met James almost 4 years ago in 2020 at one of his open houses. As someone who is also in the real estate industry, I've come across many agents. However, I still chose to work with James despite having a plethora of other agents I had a personal connection with that I could've worked with (e.g. friends and family). Recently, James assisted me in the sale and purchase of my properties. The sale was closed for top dollar by his excellent staging and marketing campaign. He was relentless in the negotiation. On the purchase side, there were many challenges along the way but James was patient and communicated very well throughout the process.
