James Thompson

PRINCIPAL BUYERS AGENT & DIRECTOR

James Thompson is a Registered Property Valuer and Principal Buyer’s Agent with over two decades of experience in the Gold Coast property market. His background in valuation provides clients with a genuine understanding of true market value, risk, and opportunity, supported by deep local knowledge and long-standing industry relationships. Over his career, James has assisted owner-occupiers, investors, and developers in securing high-quality properties while removing the pressure and uncertainty that often comes with buying without expert representation.

Prior to founding BUYR, James was a Director and Owner of Herron Todd White on the Gold Coast, where he led complex residential valuations across the region. Through this experience, he saw first-hand how frequently buyers were underrepresented in transactions. BUYR was established to address that imbalance, combining valuation expertise, strategic negotiation, and access to off-market opportunities. Today, James is regarded as a trusted authority for buyers seeking informed advice, disciplined strategy, and confidence throughout the purchase process.
