James O'Connell

Real Estate Professional

Hi, I'm James, a real estate agent with a deep love for Richmond and its surrounding neighborhoods. Born and raised in Midlothian, I’ve had the privilege of watching this area grow and evolve over the years. After graduating from James Madison University, I decided to settle in the Fan, so I’m familiar with both the suburban and urban sides of Richmond and all the unique neighborhoods in between.

Whether you’re looking to buy your first home, sell a property, or explore investment opportunities, I’m here to help. As an agent with Coldwell Banker, I have access to a ton of tools and resources that can give your home maximum exposure if you choose to list with me. For buyers, I offer a range of tools to help you find the perfect property and navigate the market with confidence.

I’m hardworking, attentive, and truly passionate about providing my clients with the best possible experience. I pride myself on being easy to reach and responsive, always focused on your needs and goals. I’m excited to bring my local knowledge, resources, and enthusiasm to the real estate world and help you make the right move!

Get an Instant Estimate on Your Home

Use the CB Estimate® tool to learn your home's value so you can tackle the real estate market with confidence.

*This is an estimate only and is not an appraisal. The CB Estimate®. provides an estimated market value of your home generated by a proprietary algorithm using aggregated data collected from third parties and public records and is intended to provide you with a general value of the property. The actual appraised value of any property may be higher or lower than the estimated market value provided by the CB Estimate®.

*Seller must pay for work upon earlier of closing, listing no longer being in effect, or 12 months after completion of first job. If settlement proceeds are insufficient to cover the RealVitalize project costs, seller must pay the balance within 15 days after closing. **Based on program data from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023 (“Program Data Period”). Commission rates, listing cancellation rates, sales price percentage and percentage of agents that preeport they won the listing with the RealVitalize® Program (collectively, the “Metrics”) were measured during the Program Data Period. To calculate the results, the Metrics of the total Eligible Listings in RealVitalize-available markets were compared with those listings that participated in the RealVitalize program. “Eligible Listings” means residential property listings and excludes some commercial, vacant land, and new construction. This was not a controlled study; correlation does not equal causation. Results not guaranteed and past performance does not guarantee future results. The RealVitalize program cannot be used to prospect for new listings in New Jersey.
