“The prospect of selling our home after 35 years was daunting, to say the least!! We decided to go through Clarke and Hummel Property in Manly as we had been told of their great reputation and professionalism by friends who had bought and sold properties with them. After 35 years we needed to work with someone we could trust and have our best interests foremost. Jesse Chester was appointed to look after us with the sale of our property. Once we met Jesse and discussed all details regarding the campaign strategy for the sale of our house, both Brian and I felt we were in good hands and started to relax. Jesse worked tirelessly to get us the best deal possible for our property. He always worked professionally and with integrity to support us in our decision making. We sold our property and we believe Jesse worked relentlessly to get the price we wanted. Both Brian and I would highly recommend Jesse to anyone who is thinking of selling their property on the Northern Beaches, you will not be disappointed”

“Jesse Chester was our agent when we sold our property at Biarritz in Balgowlah. Jesse was always polite, punctual and professional in all his dealings with us and the purchaser of our property. Jesse worked hard for us and achieved a new record price for a property at the iconic Balgowlah building that we were sad to leave. Further testament to Jesse's abilities and professionalism was that the new owners of our property spoke to us about how wonderful Jesse had been for them, as purchasers. I would be happy to discuss Jesse's capabilities with any prospective property seller”

It is with great pleasure that I write this testimonial for Jesse Chester. Jesse recently sold our two bedroom apartment in Brookvale. My family and I moved back home to New Zealand after living in Sydney for five years. We rented out our apartment for a few years but decided late last year that it was time to sell up as we wanted to get in the property market here in New Zealand. I started researching online for appropriate agents. I noticed that Jesse recently sold the apartment next door to ours with a record sale price. I contacted him last year to see if he would also be able to help us. He replied straight away and was in constant contact with us advising us when to sell and talking us through his services and experience. It was not a hard decision to trust Jesse with selling our property, he made it very easy from the get go. Being in separate countries was not an issue. He kept us informed and up to date through the whole process, not once were we worried or concerned or un-informed. Jesse sold our apartment within a week for a block record sale! Jesse is a pro! We highly recommend if you are thinking of selling then contact Jesse. He is professional, friendly, enthusiastic and most importantly great at his job. I would highly recommend Jesse as an agent for any sale or purchase

Jesse has always displayed a professional and enthusiastic attitude right when we needed it most. Other real estate agents were looking for a quick sale whereas Jesse understood its more important to develop a relationship with the customer. For a young fellow, he has a wise head on his shoulders.

“It is with great pleasure that we write this testimonial for Jesse Chester from Clarke & Humel Property. Jesse Chester has recently sold our property in Belrose and we are absolutely delighted with the result, which was achieved. We had no hesitation in appointing Clarke & Humel and specifically Jesse to sell our property as we had achieved a tremendous result selling an investment property in Dee Why last year. Again it was very important to deal with a professional agency such as Clarke & Humel to sell our home. As part of the exercise we did in fact interview local agents, however still decided to go with Clarke & Humel and we are so pleased that we did. Frankly, Clarke & Humel choose the best people to work with, from the photographer, floor planner, stylist and auctioneer, we immediately were thrilled with how our house presented for the marketing campaign. Jesse is an exceptional agent who always has the best interests of the vendor at heart. His communication skills are second to none and we basically had feedback from Jesse almost every day during the campaign. There was tremendous interest generated in our property and this was due to the diligence and hard work that Jesse put into marketing our property. We had several offers early in the campaign, however Jesse advised that we wait and go to auction as the property was generating so much interest and he felt that we would achieve an optimum sales figure if we did this. We were not disappointed. We had over 30 contracts out prior to auction day and had 16 registered bidders on the day. It was an amazing experience with us achieving a record sale price for the street and a result way beyond our expectations. Jesse was very open and honest with us throughout the whole campaign. He genuinely cares for his clients and this was evident in every communication that we had with him. The support staff at Clarke & Humel were always approachable and followed up immediately on any queries that we had. Jesse is one re

“We were very happy with our decision to entrust the sale of our Fairlight house to Jesse Chester of Clarke & Humel. From his pre-sale advice on getting our house ready for market through to finalisation of the sales proceeds we found Jesse to be knowledgeable about the market, eager to assist in every way and unfailingly cheerful. When the time came to sell and we needed to move quickly Jesse and the team swung into action. The property sold within three days of going on the market and without compromising on the price we wanted to achieve. We would unhesitatingly recommend Jesse to prospective vendors”

We sold our house through Jesse and all I can say is, he deserved every cent of his commission. Following is the reference that I wrote for Jesse: “Wow, where to begin. We met Jesse at an open home and had already decided to use a local well-known agent for the sale of our house. However, we gave Jesse the opportunity to present purely to make sure that we had at least spoken to a couple of agents before proceeding. This was the best thing we could have done. Not only did Jesse educate us on the strategies available and suggested the direction we should take, but his presentation also showed how little preparation the previous agent had done and how little he was going to do. The other agent simply said the house would sell itself. In contrast, Jesse had a clear defined strategy, a fee structure that was in line with our goal of achieving the best possible price. He genuinely worked for every cent of his commission. Over the two weeks that it took to sell our home, I felt comfortable that Jesse had our interests at heart. I knew exactly where we were up to and most importantly he was genuine and an absolute pleasure to work with. I don’t say this about people very often these days but I would highly recommend using Jesse Chester from Clarke & Humel to help sell your largest financial asset. You only get one chance to do this and if you want to do it right, then Jesse Chester is the person you want on your side”

Engaging Jesse Chester to sell our house was an unusual choice because he was by no means the highest profile agency, nor did he give us the best price expectancy. However, what made Jesse stand out was his undoubted passion for the industry and his commitment to do his very best for us - which he did! He communicated regularly, gave advice, listened to our needs and ultimately sold our house at a price we were very happy with. I found most other agencies to be fairly blasé and somewhat condescending in the recent volatile market. Jesse treated us throughout as though we were the most important client he had every worked with and he worked hard on our behalf. Thanks Jesse!

Jesse is a very professional agent who put us at ease from the start of our sales process. We were very impressed by the way he communicated valuable information to us and kept us updated throughout the sale of our property. Having dealt with a number of agents over the years we would definitely rate Jesse as the best agent we've worked with. We would highly recommend his services.

I was very happy with the job Jesse did for me in selling my Balgowlah property, for the way he worked with me in the process and for the excellent results achieved. I had spoken to a number of agents in the lead up, and had googled quite a bit online before deciding to forgo private sale and my own website listing, to choose one of the very keen agents I had spoken with. I chose Jesse, because of his enthusiasm, excellent track record, and professional presentation. Most of all I really appreciated the respect he gave me at the first interview and his genuine commitment to getting the best result. Once I had made my decision to go with Jesse, I was thrilled with the way he consulted with me at every stage in the campaign, with the care he took to follow up the prospective buyers as they came through, and his focus and diligence. The whole experience was fantastic. So well executed and fun. I would recommend Jesse and his company to do a really terrific job.

What a perfectly executed campaign. Jesse is the true professional. He handled a busy campaign with over ninety visits, some multiples, seemingly giving each party personalised attention – impressive. He has enviable attention to detail and ensured our unit was always at its best for viewings and then managed an auction with thirteen registered bidders with ease. As a young professional, he is not only impressive but is building a successful career for himself. Our sincere thanks.

Jesse was an absolute pleasure to deal with at what can be a very stressful time. He is straightforward, trustworthy and an overall nice guy. Highly recommend.
