Dale joined the Real Estate industry in 2014, specialising in residential property sales. Dale’s skills and strengths, particularly in the areas of communication and negotiation plus her confident operation of systems, strategies and a can-do attitude, give her clients a head start when selling and buying property. Born and raised on a sheep farm in Southland, Dale headed to Canada and England for an agricultural based OE before returning to NZ. For the next 20 years Dale enjoyed owning and operating a successful Christchurch travel agency eventually selling up just prior to the 2010 Canterbury earthquakes. Following personal challenges faced by living in the eastern suburbs, Dale enjoyed a change of pace and spent four years working in not-for-profit organisations before re-entering the business world and completing her Real Estate Salesperson License.

Testimonials

"We are extremely grateful and thankful to Dale for her tenacity. She worked tirelessly to negotiate a favourable sale of our Paulus Terrace property seemingly against impossible odds to meet the confirmation deadline. She was very professional throughout the process. Regardless of the pressure she maintained a cool head was solution focussed which was very reassuring. We highly recommend Dale." Peter Hira

"We would like to recognise Dale's professionalism and warm approach towards the complex nature of our recent purchase. Her readiness and prompt responses in helping us understand every detail was first class. She left no stone unturned to help us to get us across the line and to understand the complexities of the property. We loved her positive can-do attitude and would not hesitate to contact Dale to represent us in the future and would recommend to anyone for Dale to represent them with their most valuable asset to achieve a good outcome." Dave and Kris Burridge

"Dale was the real estate agent who helped us purchase our first family home recently. She was a wonderful and supportive communicator. She was helpful and friendly explaining all the intricacies we needed to understand. Most importantly all interactions with her felt honest and informative. At all points Dale supported us, but was also well aware of the Vendors requirements. There was no hard sell, just open honest communication that was reassuring. As first home buyers we couldn’t have asked for a better agent and would highly recommend her." Dr Chandra Harrison & Ryan Roughan

“We would like to take this opportunity to thank Dale for her exceptional support, she has been extremely helpful, answered all out questions and always kept us informed throughout the entire sales procedure. She displayed an impressive level of honesty, professionalism and efficiency, which enabled us to see how the house could become our very first home. Dale truly is the best agent, and without a shadow of doubt we would recommend her services to anyone seeking to find their perfect home”. Ted Zhang and Jing Liu

Top 5% Bayleys Agents Nationwide
Joining the industry in 2002, Chris has carved out an incredible track record of success. He has reached over $1 billion in total sales, and named the No. 1 Bayleys agent nationwide (five years in a row). And he’s done it through honesty, dedication, extremely hard work and a relaxed yet highly professional approach.

Originally specialising in the lifestyle market, Chris had regular feedback from vendors in other parts of the market wanting the same style and service for their properties. So 10 years ago he started to build a team of like-minded people and is now surrounded by Nathan, Sam and Sarah plus Felicity, Michele, Claudia and Bianca based in the office. Together they cover more ground and are able to achieve greater results for clients across Canterbury.

The effect has been outstanding. For three years the Chris Jones Team achieved the most sales of all agents and companies in the country, as awarded by REINZ. “Our style isn’t to shout it from the roof tops but we are New Zealand’s number one team, thanks to our amazing clients.”

A remarkable result for a refreshingly down-to-earth agent and team, and a vote of confidence for anyone wishing to sell property in Canterbury or beyond.

“Our repeat and referral clients make up a huge portion of our business. This is hugely satisfying as it means we must be doing okay!”
