Chris Jones

Residential and Lifestyle Sales

Joining the industry in 2002, Chris has carved out an incredible track record of success. He has reached over $2.2 billion in total sales and for eight years has been named the No. 1 Bayleys Salesperson Nationwide. This result has been achieved through honesty, dedication, hard work and a relaxed yet highly professional approach.

Originally specialising in the lifestyle market, Chris received regular feedback from vendors in other areas of the market wanting the same style and service for their properties. As Chris’s business developed year in and year out, he began to build a team of like-minded people. Chris is currently supported by Nathan Collett, Sam Sidey, Sarah Eastmond and Bianca Davidson as his trusted sales team, Nick de Lautour as sales assistant, and Felicity Powell, Michele Holmes, Rachel King and Anne Hunt managing the office and all administration. Together, the Chris Jones Team cover more ground with specialists in the lifestyle, residential and development markets and continue to achieve greater results for all clients across Canterbury.

Chris was awarded the overall residential salesperson of the year for the highest sales volume by REINZ for 2022/2023. In addition to this for the years 2016/2017 and 2017/2018, the Chris Jones Team have achieved the highest number of residential sales, throughout all salespeople and companies in New Zealand, 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!”
