Description

James Tostevin reveals how 200 calls a week for 40 years made him Australia's #1 real estate agent three years running (2013, 2014, 2015) and why "momentum is everything" when it comes to sustained success in real estate.


James Tostevin is a Director and Auctioneer at Marshall White and has sold over $400M in real estate across nearly 4 decades in the industry. He's conducted 3,500+ auctions and is known for his relentless prospecting discipline and time-blocking systems that have made him one of Australia's most consistent top performers.
