"We used James Baldwin to sell our house! He was excellent! Very professional, very honest, gave us good advice, and knows the business very well ! He kept us up to date on everything and was very patient with our questions. His pictures and listing on our house was wonderful! He knows the neighborhood well and was very insightful into what we should do to make our house ready to sell. We sold in ONE DAY! We just went to settlement and everything went very smooth, fast and uneventful! We HIGHLY recommend James as your real estate agent!!" - Gracie

"James is not only an amazing agent, but he's a local himself. While helping us find our home in South Baltimore he pointed out businesses and restaurants he recommended. As a first time home buyer, James was informative and kept us in the loop with each step in the process. He picked up on my boyfriend and my preferences and personalities and adjusted our home search accordingly. He never wasted our time in a home in a home we weren't interested in and gave us amazing negotiating advice that led us to getting our dream home!" - Joshua

"We've used quite a few real estate professionals in the past on other properties; all good, but James raised the bar. He has a unique talent to read your specific needs and personality to find just the right place for you to call home. James is personable, professional, kind, and detail oriented. He was there every step of the way, immediately responding to questions, doing far more than expected in arranging all parts of the process. Highly recommend." - Wayne

About James
An 18 year veteran of the business, James entered the profession during one of the most difficult economic downturns and credits much of his success to his tenacity during those early years. A former schoolteacher and marketing professional, James is a self-professed multi-tasker who prides himself in his ability to connect with his clients in each and every transaction. He has leveraged his knowledge of technology and social media to make The Baldwin & Griffinā€™ Group's marketing initiatives memorable and impactful. 

James & Andrea began their partnership in 2008 and have grown their team thoughtfully over the last 15 years with a focus on finding a smart and energetic team of agents that can serve a broad geographic region and diverse clientele. Their team of 6 agents have been consistent top producers in a very competitive environment and they are now Compass Maryland's #1 Team. Their business has grown exponentially thanks to their extremely satisfied referral base.

James spends much of his free time with his husband and two Norwich terriers working in his yard of his Ruxton home or enjoying the pleasures of their second home and boat in Sherwood, MD just outside of the beautiful town of St. Michaels, Talbot County.  In addition to servicing clients throughout the metropolitan Baltimore region (including his beloved Otterbein in downtown Baltimore), he loves to help buyers locate second homes and retirement homes on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.
