Professional History:
The early years of his real estate career found Jester primarily representing owners in the leasing of their office and light industrial facilities. Many of these professional landlords, impressed with his tenacious and thorough approach to the handling of their accounts, came to rely on his expertise for their commercial property disposition and acquisition assignments.
Jester has successfully handled commercial real estate disposition assignments for firms, to name a few, such as
Bank of America (196,686 square foot Yorktown Plaza office building sold to NY Investment Group)
Davey International (152,200 square foot, 15.9 acre corporate headquarters facility sold to Southwestern Bell)
Methodist Hospital Trust (2,176 acre conference center and meeting facility to Ducks Unlimited Foundation);
Dominguez Properties (144,265 square foot, 3 building high-tech warehouse)
Pacific Oil (12,000 acre ranch, lodge and hunting Facility to BLB);
Shopping center sales for clients such as NEW PLAN EXCEL REALTY TRUST, INC., Weingarten REIT and others; each and every year in the $1 million to $20 million price range
Branded and unbranded convenience stores in package lots, and the list goes on and on.
Jester, while handling major investment property listings since 1987 (two of those are income producing recreational properties in Mexico), has developed an extensive active buyer contact base. His extensive research to facilitate this and the subsequent contact program he has established enables him to continually perform in the investment sales marketplace in a way most uncommon in the real estate industry.
