“We used Jestine when we moved to Kamloops 5 years ago and she really stepped up when we ran into some challenges and the seller’s agent did nothing. I knew she was the right person to ask to sell our home and I was right. She was there every step of the way, kept us informed, guided us with solid expertise and got it sold for a great price. Highly recommend her.”

“Dear Jestine, We would like to personally thank and recognize you for helping us purchase our first home. Being first-time homebuyers, we had a number of questions, apprehensions, and concerns. Throughout it all you were very informative and patient. There was not one single question or request we provided to you that wasn’t immediately answered or fulfilled, and neither of us can think of anything that could possibly have been improved upon. You made it easy to relax and enjoy the process of home buying by coordinating everything and taking care of any unexpected issues that arose. Purchasing a house can be a stressful period, so having your level of professionalism and positivity is a great asset to any client. We unreservedly recommend both yourself and The Finch Group as a professional realtor to any prospective buyers or sellers. Thank you so much for making our purchase such a wonderful experience.”

– Graham Schreiner and Ashleigh Innis


“When we first got into the housing market we did what everyone does. Google. After emailing a posting we had found, Jestine got a hold of us right away. Our first sit down I went into not to sure what to expect. This was our first home and I figured she would just push a house on us that she would make the most on. Was I wrong. From that meeting on Jestine was attentive to our needs. She worked long hours showing us houses, going back to houses that we had already seen. Any time we had a question, even if it wasn’t something she needed to help us with she did anyways. I would recommend her great services to any new or experienced home buyers. She has a wealth of knowledge and is extremely devoted to finding the perfect home for you. Thanks again Jestine for all your hard work”

She was always accessible and willing to answer questions no matter what time or day and over a year of house searching she always kept in touch to see where we were at.

Jestine exceeding our expectations and really appreciated her even giving up her own evenings to sit with us until 9pm to go over the contracts and comps. You can tell it’s not ‘just a job’ for Jestine, she really put in her all to help us get our first home :)”

“Jestine was a very knowledgeable, polite, trustworthy realtor. We stumbled upon her when looking online at places through the Finch Group and we never turned back. Being first timers, we were a little bit naive of the whole process and the learning curve was steep but Jestine guided us professionally through the whole process and made us feel like a priority even though she has many other clients. I feel like she goes out of her way to ensure all of her clients feel that way. Our communications with Jestine were positive and exciting. I highly recommend her to any home buyer.”

“I was from out of town and needed a realtor. I happened upon Jestine Hinch as I was searching on Realtor.ca. She had a listing I was interested in and we made a really good connection over the phone. We arranged to view some properties with her and upon that initial meeting, we were really impressed with her personality, her professionalism and her knowledge. When we did choose a property and began the purchase process, we were even more impressed with Jestine. She really knew what she was doing and looked after so much for us since we did not live locally. She provided excellent advice and feedback and was professional at all times. We would not hesitate for a second in recommending Jestine to others! “

“We had met Jestine when she was working at the Show Home in Pacific Ridge. She was so kind as to show us the home, we really liked the area but we wanted a daylight basement entrance as well as 2 decks. We had asked her to kindly let us know if any of the daylight townhomes come up for sale we would be interested in looking at it, Unit #119 came up for sale within days of our conversation with Jestine. We immediately came and looked at the house and both my husband and I decided that we wanted to put an offer on it ASAP….. We are now the proud owners of Unit #119. Jestine… she was amazing to work with always available to answer any of our questions and if she didn’t know the answers she would get them for us. We can’t say enough about the professionalism that Jestine had with us, as well as a personal connection. She went as far as personally fixing a dryer vent that wasn’t hooked up properly for us before we took over possession. She also spoiled us with a big beautiful basket of goodies on possession day and also continued to bring treats over on Valentine’s Day in her busy schedule, to which we are super grateful for. She was absolutely amazing, kind, and super thoughtful, hopefully we can stay in contact. I would recommend her to my family and friends in a heartbeat. Thanks again for making the purchase of our townhouse a great experience, Jestine! She loves what she does and she’s great at it. One of the BEST!! Rae Hill in the office was also a pleasure to deal with everything was always done fast and efficient. It was great to work with both of them. Thanks Ladies!”

“We called Jestine when we saw her phone number on a sign at a property we wanted to look at, after our first meeting with her we knew she was the one we wanted to work with to find us our home. Jestine is a fantastic realtor, and a great person to work with. She worked hard to accommodate everything that needed to be done, she sold our house in less than 2 weeks and found us our new home! I will never use another realtor, and will strongly recommend her to anyone that is looking to buy or sell a home in the near future. Thanks again Jestine!”
