James is a part of a very unique and specialized group of REALTORS ®.
When you buy a home from the listing agent, you have NO representation. They represent the SELLER. It is their job to get the SELLER the highest price and the most favorable terms. They present you with a dual agency agreement and they owe their fiduciary duties to the SELLER.
They are REQUIRED to tell the seller anything that would benefit them in the negotiation process, including the highest price you are willing to pay.
Other agents claim to be a "buyer's Agent" but they work for an office that SELLS homes. Which homes do you think they want to sell to you first?
Unlike most Real Estate Agents, James does not list properties for sale. Homebuyer's-Team LLC Real Estate brokerage does not list any homes for sale. That allows James and his team much more time and devotion to his home buying clients. James is a member of the National Association of Exclusive Buyer’s Agents, which enables him the resources to assist home buying clients more effectively.
Over the years, James has spent a lot of time with home inspectors. He has learned how to "pre-inspect" homes by pointing out potential problems to his clients. He feels there is no reason to spend time on a house that has too many costly defects. Some of his clients are pleasantly surprised and sometimes shocked to have a Realtor immediately point out problems to be concerned with.
James is the Relocation Director for Homebuyer's-Team. He understands the time sensitive needs required by corporations, third party relocation companies, and especially the relocating client. James also understands the need to help relocating clients "buy right" so that the new home will remain marketable and to have several backup plans in place so that there is no interruption in the relocation process. "Communication is the key to a successful relocation. I keep the entire "team" up to speed on the progress of locating and purchasing a home and carefully listen to the needs of my clients and their corporation."
James holds an Electronic Engineering Technology degree and has used his analytical and methodical skills to enhance the home buying process for his clients. “Without question, my clients know exactly what they are buying.” James also brings his 20 years in customer service and management skills to the negotiation table for his clients. James started his Real Estate Career in 1997, as an investor, which taught him the creative financing, buying, and selling aspects of Real Estate. Now, James integrates these skills into a complete and highly specialized Real Estate Agent for his home buying clients.
James has lived in the Houston area all of his life and has lived in the Pearland/Friendswood area since 1990. James is a proud father of a beautiful girl that attends Middle School in Pearland ISD. His wife, whom he has been married to for 14 years, is also in the Real Estate industry and is his supportive coach and a wonderful mother. The Potenza's are active members of New Life Lutheran Church in Pearland.
"My clients expect the best and that is what I give them, 100% loyalty and commitment”

Anonymous U. bought a previous house in League City, TX with James W Potenza Exclusive Buyers Agent and would recommend them to other home sellers.
Dear James, We just wanted to write and thank you for the excellent service you provided during our recent relocation. We were faced with the overwhelming task of moving to a State we were unfamiliar with; to a city we had never even visited. Because of your expertise and knowledge of the home buying industry and your wonderful user friendly web site this process was relatively stress free. We checked your website often and found it current and extensive making it easy to compare prices and availability in all the districts surrounding our target area. Once we had established a profile of the type of property we were looking for your daily emails of homes fitting our criteria made it fun and easy to weed out the chaff. The best part was when we actually traveled the 1200 miles for the purpose of making a purchase you realized that time was of the essence and made your self available to us for the entire holiday weekend. Nothing was too much trouble and our every request was met. You had appointments scheduled in advance so as not to waste any of our precious time and had alternative plans when things went awry. Lastly we would like to thank you for helping us negotiate an excellent deal with the builder of our choice. You facilitated us a contract far in excess of our expectations while keeping everything calm and businesslike. We felt you were truly out to look after our best interests and it was a pleasure to have you as our representative. In the unlikely event that we will be making another move in this area we would not hesitate to call on your services again and you can be sure that we will be recommending you to anyone we come across needing a homebuyers agent. Thank you so much for making our relocation as painless and fun as it could possibly be. We count you as our first new friend that we made in Texas. Yours truly, Janet and David Hambleton - League City, TX

My wife & I recently purchased a home in the Clear Lake area with James Potenza as our homebuyer's agent. We couldn't have asked for a better agent: James was courteous, professional, and patient throughout the entire process (and especially patient when we had our 4-year-old along to look at houses with "Mr. James"!). Since we were moving from out-of-state, we greatly appreciated how he made himself completely available to us during the limited time we had for house-hunting. It was evident that he was sincerely interested in finding a home that met our needs, and not just trying to have us buy a house. He was particularly patient and courteous when we needed to step back and reassess what exactly we were looking for in our next home. Once we had made a decision, he was prompt in submitting the offer and professional in guiding us through the closing process. James Potenza was hands-down the best agent we have ever worked with, and I highly recommend him for anyone looking to buy a home in Houston. The Visscher's Clear Lake
