People perceive it can be hard to make Queenstown home, and I want to show them how it can be straightforward’.
Brimming with both passion for property and energy for life, when he’s not working with clients, Jesse can be found taking advantage of the Queenstown lifestyle as an avid snowboarder.

Absolute pleasure to deal with
This was our first house sale and we were very, very happy with the service we received. I was genuinely impressed by how friendly and professional everyone was. Richie and Jesse were an absolute pleasure to deal with. Richie kept us focused (and calmed me down) during our somewhat drawn out offer and ensured we made it to the finish line. I would have no hesitation recommending them.
Amazingly supportive
We thought we would sell our house privately, but after inviting Jesse to our house for a market appraisal we quickly felt we were in good hands with Jesse and Richie. Their enthusiastic yet calm demeanour made the process much less stressful and was quick to provide good advice and with no pressure. Wanting a quick sale, we felt Jesse and Richie could deliver that for us while ensuring we were getting a fair market price. We were blown away to get a fantastic offer after only 4 days on the market, reflecting that hard work up front to market the property. We thank them for being amazingly supportive, swift, enthusiastic and providing great communication throughout the process. Who knew it could be so easy? Thanks Jesse, you’re a star!
Dream result
Due to a growing family, earlier this year it was time for us to sell our beloved first home. After meeting with multiple agents, Richie & Jesse were an obvious choice. We never felt ‘sold’ to. Instead we received genuine effort and a team that just got the job done. We sold our house for what we had hoped for a week before the auction. Dream result. Thanks guys.
Guidance and local connections
Jesse helped us to buy a property. As an overseas buyer, we had to rely on Jesse's know-how, guidance and local connections to get the purchase executed. While this was a great experience for us as buyers, what really impressed me was the service after. Jesse continues to be available for questions and I feel he wants all clients to be satisfied. Should we decide to sell our house sometime in the future, we will contact Jesse to be our agent.
Our house sold for a great price!
We want to thank you again for working hard and getting our house sold for a great price! You made the process stress free and we appreciate the advice you gave during the sale. It was a pleasure working with you and we will be sure to get in touch if we make the move back to Queenstown in the future.
Outstanding result
Thank you both for the outstanding result you achieved for the sale of our Cameron Place property. You were both a pleasure to work with. You made what had the potential to be a difficult transaction seem easy because of your solution focused attitude. We would recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell property in Queenstown.
Stress-free
Richie, Jesse and the wider team were fantastic to work with in marketing our home. We felt we really benefited from the team approach and that all consultants were part of the sales process. The team were prompt with providing information after inspections so we felt we were really part of the sales process and were fully aware with where the market was at. The marketing campaign was fun and stress-free for us. On auction night we got a fantastic result, well beyond what we ever thought our property would sell for!
Very proactive, extremely helpful
I must say that Jesse was just fantastic during this whole process. I found him to be very honest, very proactive and extremely helpful during the process.
