About Peter
As an experienced real estate agent, I have learned that the most important thing I can do for my vendor is to help them achieve the highest price possible for their property and to do so with the least possible stress and disruption to their lives. I strongly believe that if the best price possible is to be achieved for any property, the sale will generally happen quite quickly whilst the property is fresh in the market place, and it is the responsibility of the sales agent to provide their client with honest price expectations and sound pre listing advice to ensure this happens. My carefully thought out marketing plan, and honest and forthright approach and guidance throughout the campaign starts at first meeting and continues until we are happily sold. Ask me about my entirely risk free service guarantee and genuine pensioner discount.

About John
I have been successfully selling real estate in the north eastern suburbs for the last 31 years. I have learned that the most important thing I can do for my vendors is to achieve the highest possible price for their most prized possession and to do so with the least possible stress and disruption to their lives. “Keeping in touch” was a motto of my first manager in real estate and I believe that keeping vendors (and purchasers) fully informed of the whole selling process is the best way to go. From the day of listing to the day keys are handed over at settlement, I will keep you fully posted on all aspects. No home is too big or too small because I know this is your most valuable asset. I am highly competitive with my fees and my carefully thought out marketing plan and honest and forthright approach make me an agent that should be on your shopping list. For a free appraisal do not hesitate to contact me on 0411 575 430. P.S. I also handle rental properties so if you have an investment property please do not hesitate to call me.

Worst buying experience

Hello, I have bought and sold few properties in the past, this was the worst experience by far, It was all good until the property was sold, This property came with a tenant and John promised me that they will make sure when tenants moves out after a month it would be Century 21 and his responsibility that it would be neat and clean, We received house in worst condition possible after 4 weeks and no one from John or Century 21st wanted to take responsibility, They both were telling me to contact each other but no one was fixing the problem, I end up spending over $1000 for cleaning and fixing the property myself. I understand you are busy but you need to talk to people with respect and be available if someone having any issues, not just wipe your hands and walk away as properly is already sold now, your name could go long way, It is your responsibility as your promised me. Thank you

We could not have chosen a better agent than John.

Prior to putting our houses on the market we interviewed 3 prospective agents . We chose John because he impressed us with his honesty and knowledge of the housing market. He also recommended an excellent handyman who helped us fix up the little things to get our houses ready for sale. His photographer was terrific , the photos online and board outside the properties were outstanding. Our choice of Century 21 and John himself was rewarded by him selling both our houses at the first open house viewing. Both our buyers had to sell their properties to buy ours and he sold their homes following only one open day as well. We couldn’t recommend John Leske more highly if you are looking for a trustworthy agent to sell your home.

2 x properties sold, great result both times.

Twice we have asked Jon Downs to market properties for us. Jon achieved our agreed property value on one and exceeded our expectations on the other. Jon is always courteous and professional, demonstrating a desire to understand what the vendor is attempting to achieve and guiding the process in an exemplary and professional manner at all time. His experience in the field is apparent whenever problems with difficult situations arise and are handled calmly and with aplomb. We would recommend Jon to any one wishing to realise the sale of their property with the assistance of a professional and courteous estate agent.

Professional and helpful in securing our purchase

John's experience and knowledge of the North East really stood out. He was professional to deal with, helpful in answering all of our questions promptly and always available to communicate with during the offer and settlement phase.
