James J. Brunner hasn’t just established himself as a top producer and respected Westside real estate authority; he has also earned praise and acclaim for his dedication to upholding the highest standards of customer satisfaction.

James’s client base, which is almost entirely built on repeats and referrals, is a testament to his “client for life” objective. From the initial meetings to discuss a buyer’s specific needs or overview a marketing plan to quickly drum up the right kind of interest in a seller’s property, to negotiating that puts the client’s needs front and center while allowing all parties to come away satisfied, through to the final details that secure a successful closing, James applies an exceptional level of detail management every step of the way. His open communication style, incontrovertible integrity, exceptional problem-solving skills, and tireless work ethic regularly convert skeptical buyers and sellers into believers in a higher level of real estate service.

After many years representing buyers and sellers throughout the Westside, with a specialization in Marina del Rey, Westwood, and the Palisades, for Coldwell Banker Brentwood and Jon Douglas Estates, James moved to Gibson International for a commitment to excellence that matched his own.

“Gibson International’s structure and perspective made the decision easy,” said James. “My goal is always to serve my client’ needs, and surrounding myself with the best of the best in terms of both management and colleagues while working in an environment that is geared toward success is key.”

When not helping buyers find their dream home and sellers move forward after a successful transaction, James enjoys home repair projects, furniture refinishing, golf and travel, and is actively involved with the Pet Orphans Organization.
