Prior to starting my own Real Estate Company; I gained experience in the Real Estate Sector through working for REMAX Realtors where I sold residential property as well as New Developments “off plan” in various developments across KZN.
I am an aspiring and passionate property and social entrepreneur, who has achieved a fair amount of success in the sale of existing residential properties as well as specializing in the packaging and sale of New Developments within the Real Estate Sector in Kwa-Zulu Natal.
In the past 10 years I have started and managed my own Real Estate Business and has successfully marketed and sold a fair amount of properties and New Developments in KZN.
I am also passionate about social development within our country and I believe that one of the ways that this could be achieved is through the responsible acquisition of property first as a means of shelter and then as a mechanism of wealth creation. I am passionate about helping first time home owners enter the property market and about helping them understand how they can create wealth through the responsible acquisition of property as well.
To me business is about finding an equal balance between being profitable and making a difference at the same time and I view the rewards of making a difference far outweighs the rewards of just making a financial gain and balancing this act makes smart business sense to me.
My guiding business principle is:
“What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul”- Matthew 16:26
