Chester Rendell joined the team at New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty in mid 2016 having worked for nearly 20 years as a specialist in residential, waterfront and lifestyle properties together with high end hospitality and tourism businesses and properties. He has an excellent understanding of how hospitality and tourism businesses work having been involved himself in these businesses for over 40 years. From 2000, in addition to his New Zealand business, Chester focussed on the South Pacific Islands, in particular Fiji, selling resorts, waterfront real estate, residential resort developments and private holiday retreats and is still involved in selling Fiji and Pacific Islands real estate today. Chester's overall knowledge, in particular Fiji, Rarotonga and Vanuatu is a rare commodity to find these days. Chester believes that the most important attribute for a real estate agent is to have an open and honest relationship with his vendors. Chester is based in the Bay of Islands and lives in Paihia with his wife, Louise.
