Before entering real estate, James enjoyed a distinguished television career.

A natural entrepreneur with a passion for pop culture, James founded CBGB Holdings, acquiring the trademarks and intellectual property of the iconic New York City nightclub CBGB. As President, he revitalized the legendary brand through partnerships with iHeart Radio, Activision, Bravado, and Vans, expanding its reach through innovative merchandise and cultural collaborations. His efforts also led to the establishment of a permanent CBGB exhibition at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Museum in Cleveland.

He purchased his first East Hampton home in 1999 and moved to his current two-acre property in 2005.

We could not have found our dream home in the Hamptons without the exceptional skill and dedication of our realtor, James Blueweiss. Throughout the process, we faced challenges we never could have anticipated, but he guided us through each one with expertise and confidence. Even when we lost homes during the normal course of bidding, James remained steadfastly optimistic, assuring us that the right home was still out there for us. That optimism was perfectly matched by his sharp negotiating skills and his ability to craft the best strategy at every turn. It’s no surprise he is so well respected—even loved—by his fellow real estate professionals. It takes rare talent to advocate fiercely for clients while ensuring that everyone involved walks away feeling positive about the exchange. Thanks to James, we are now proud homeowners—and neighbors! His support didn’t stop at closing. He generously connected us with his trusted network of contractors, repair specialists, and even tennis court maintenance and pool services, which allowed us to settle in and enjoy our home immediately for the summer. James is far more than a seasoned realtor—he has become a true friend. His professionalism, optimism, and heart are a gift to anyone fortunate enough to have him guide them through the journey of finding a home

James Blueweiss is one of the most talented and creative real estate brokers in the Hamptons. He has been an invaluable part of our home search journey—always available, even during off hours, and wholly dedicated to finding the perfect home for us. From the day we first met James in Nick & Toni’s parking lot — it took nine months of patience, persistence, and tireless effort to find “the one.” Nine months later, we closed on the right house at the right price. James was instrumental in the negotiations, skillfully navigating every detail to secure a successful purchase price and a smooth closing. Not only is James an exceptional broker, but through this process, we’ve also come to consider him a good friend.

We had the pleasure of working with James Blueweiss on the sale of our East Hampton home at 3 Cedar Trails, and we cannot recommend him highly enough. James exceeded every expectation — he secured multiple offers, negotiated a sale close to asking, and provided an extraordinary level of hands-on support. From expediting the Certificate of Occupancy and a new survey to overseeing revegetation, electrical updates, and even attic clean-out, James managed every detail with professionalism and care. He personally met contractors and leveraged his strong relationships with East Hampton Town officials and local vendors, streamlining the process and ensuring a seamless outcome. Selling a home in the Hamptons can be complex, but with James it felt effortless. He is more than a real estate agent — he is a trusted partner and advocate.

I selected James Blueweiss to be my exclusive broker and soon found out that he goes far above what anyone would expect. He helped us prepare the house for the perfect buyer, finding all the right people to do all the jobs, large and small. Most importantly, he found the person who could get our certificate of occupancy approved quickly. He was superb during the negotiating process for the final sales price. We couldn’t have done it without him. The home sold April 3, 2026.
