Where a business sits shapes how it performs.

Brisbane's near-city precincts offer more than floor space. They offer footfall, adjacency, and a tenancy mix that either lifts a business or works against it.

We take the time to understand what a space needs to do — commercially and operationally — then apply market evidence and structured negotiation to secure terms that stand up over the life of the lease.

Built for this market

Built for this market

Established in 2012, Chesters Real Estate has built its reputation on bringing the best local and international tenants to South East Queensland, with a focus on the CBD, James Street and other highly sought-after near-city locations.

Our longstanding, trusted relationships with owners and developers have led to a natural expansion into sales. Tim Jones, one of Brisbane’s most established and experienced selling agents, has joined Chesters to lead that side of the business.

As an independent commercial agency, we’ve always put quality first, we bring more than 40 years of combined experience to the near-city market.

Our Approach

Informed by the market. We do the groundwork first. Before making a recommendation on a tenant, rental value or sales strategy, we understand the property, the local market and the demand behind it.

Straightforward advice. We give owners, tenants and investors an honest assessment of the market, backed by evidence and experience. Our advice is grounded in what the market is telling us, not what people want to hear.

Built on long-term relationships. Many of our clients have worked with us for years. We value those relationships and approach every appointment with the same focus: delivering the right outcome today while building trust for the long term.

Our Difference

Independent, so you get honest advice.

Specialist, not generalist.

Strategy that starts with your needs.

Accountable right through to signing.

Our Precincts

We focus on a select number of Brisbane’s inner-city precincts, including the Brisbane CBD, Fortitude Valley, Newstead, New Farm, Teneriffe, South Brisbane and the CBD fringe.

Our local knowledge runs deep. Through long-standing relationships with landlords, tenants, property owners and investors, we bring a detailed understanding of the market, the people who shape it and the opportunities within it.

Careers at Chesters.

We’re a highly focused team who care about doing the work well. Everyone gets involved, and every client gets our full attention.

If you enjoy working directly with owners and developers, take pride in the detail, and like being part of a team that backs each other, we’d love to hear from you.

You’ll work on meaningful commercial projects across some of Brisbane’s most interesting precincts, with real responsibility from the start.

If that sounds like the way you want to work, please get in touch.

In their words

Our decision to run with Chesters for the retail campaign at The Calile was vindicated many times over. We were initially tempted to run with one of the larger agencies but quickly learned that Greer and Michael would deliver a more bespoke response, tailored to our needs. The campaign was extremely successful, evidenced by the calibre of retail and F&B tenants joining our Centre. We couldn't be happier with the outcome.

We’ve worked closely with Tim Jones and the team at Chesters across a number of strategic acquisitions and have consistently been impressed by the level of professionalism, market intelligence and transparency throughout the process. In a market where experience and trust matter, Tim has proven himself to be a highly capable development site agent and someone we would comfortably recommend to any owner or purchaser operating within the Brisbane market.

GRAYA

Tim & Vaughn executed a smooth & efficient off-market sale process for us, which resulted in a sale price being achieved inline with the top transactions in the precinct. It is evident that their deep buyer relationships allowed them to provide the highest level of confidence to interested parties, facilitating a strong result. We would have no hesitation in recommending the Chesters team.
