Here at Next Move Property, we’re a happy and compatible bunch, so when the time comes to add someone new to the team it’s a carefully considered decision. We know our newest team member is going to fit in beautifully.

Meet Jesse White: volunteer fire fighter, surfer, trade qualified painter and decorator, experienced real estate agent, and all-round good bloke.

Jesse grew up at Budgewoi on the Central Coast. He had a sporty, active childhood—swimming, surfing and playing rugby league. After high school he gained his trade qualification as a painter and decorator and worked in that field for a few years before the urge to travel took him to Europe. Jesse and his now-wife Kelly lived in the French Alps, running a chalet in winter, and near Nice and Antibes, working on luxury boats during the summer.

When Jesse and Kelly returned to Australia, Jesse felt like a change, workwise. He was offered a job at a real estate agency and a new career blossomed. After working for more than a decade in the field, Jesse and Kelly decided on a tree change, which brought them to Broke. The couple has spent the last four-and-a-half years renovating an old house on small acreage and establishing strong connections within the community. Hesitant to continue to work in real estate when he had no local knowledge of the Hunter Valley, Jesse returned to his trade and worked as a painter, first at Mt Thorley, and then for himself, with painting jobs in and around Broke.

Over the last five years, Jesse has become much more familiar with the region and so when the opportunity to work with Next Move Property arose, he jumped at it. Jesse is enthusiastic about returning to work in real estate, and is keen to join Sheree and the team. We’re confident our clients are going to love him.
