James Downing

I have been a member of the Ray White Lower North Shore team for over four years.

I grew up in Mosman, and have loved this area for decades.

After studying Economics at Sydney University, I quickly realised that my skill and passion was driving me towards property and design - so that’s where I headed. Design has always been a passion of mine, and I believe good design has a value far beyond a house's price. Good design allows people and families to live peacefully in harmony with the built environment. Function should come before form, but those two elements are not mutually exclusive.

My professional background is in Architecture and Interior Design - I was formally the lead interior designer at a well-known Sydney architecture firm, specialising in high end, private residences, luxury retail spaces and hotel design. This experience fostered my love for beautifully properties around Sydney's harbour.

My background in design also allows me to create very effective dialogue with clients and buyers in the real estate space. This gives me the ability to deliver a highly detailed sales service that focus on peoples needs and wants.

On the weekends, you can usually find me swimming in the ocean or searching for my golf ball...
