Chris beat two other agents I’d invited to give appraisals for my apartment so HE WON the listing. He has cachet which he brings on-camera. The video he made showed off my property’s best features and Swanbourne’s too. He is hands down the best real estate agent I’ve dealt with. He has impeccable credentials not only in business but as a former North Cottesloe surf club president whose feats of swimming to Rottnest are a clue to the determination he’ll bring to sell your property.

Chris has always been easy to deal with in many aspects, namely, knowledge of the area, knowledge of the market, handling the Sale negotiation and process to eventual Settlement. As a buyer, this was very seamless. I will happily continue to do business with Shellabears Real Estate

A most thorough process. No vague expectations despite the predictable uncertainty concerning potential demand for the property. We were kept in the 'loop' with timely updates and post-auction attention to ensure the entire process went smoothly. Chris was always available for the (blessedly few) queries that arose during the marketing period. Costs were very much in line with expectations. We would certainly recommend Chris and the entire Shellabears team for all real estate matters.

Chris is a fabulous agent - knows the market, has lots of contacts, communicated with us every home open with feedback. Having been an agent for many years he is just a wealth of information - experience is vital! I can highly recommend Chris with the sale or purchase of property - very professional.

Chris is the consumate professional, trustworthy and talented. He is well connected, has sound knowledge of the industry coupled with immense good humour and patience. He made a difficult situation as pain free as possible and in quick time.

We have relied on Chris's professional advice on several property transactions and always found he provides exceptional and timely service. He knows the local area inside out and has a finely tuned understanding of the state of the current market.

Chris has some decades of experience in up-market residential properties in the Western Suburbs of Perth. His starting point is to identify positive points of difference for each house. With his colleague, Nick Holt, and their confident but relaxed communication styles, they together then create a brief “must watch” video clip walking through each property. They are careful to avoid over-the-top superlatives. And would-be purchasers can look at the videos in their own time as many times as they wish. I think this does lead to properties having increased attractiveness. Chris is a good listener, and respectful and dignified. These attributes promote trust. I was delighted with the promotion of my house by Chris and Nick.

Chris acted for the vendor and was clear and responsive to our questions prior to and post the EOI date. We appreciated the timely nature of the decision making process from Chris and the vendor during the negotiation period.

Chris was attentive, very punctual , considerate and efficient in all of his good work. In particular he went the extra mile for Susie and I who are time poor . Fantastic

Having a great network of potential buyers and a great reputation in the industry is critical. Its hard to beat experience when it comes to selling property, and along with Chris's professionalism he is one of the best in the business and a pleasure to deal with.

Chris and his team provided exemplary service, deep professional knowledge and a willingness to assist. Highly recommended.

Chris worked out the marketing strategy for our Cottesloe property. He negotiated access with our tenants and started showing prospective buyers through. Each weekend I received a call to update me on progress. All was quiet for a couple of weeks then an offer was on the table and within days agreement was reached on price and the property was sold. Great outcome with the minimum of fuss.
