My early professional backround is in the Banking and Assurance industries having worked at large corporates in Durban and Johannesburg. This corporate grounding is reflected in my approach with clients as I switched to a career as an agent 18 years ago.
I pride myself on taking my clients on a journey of discovery when it comes to choosing a property. For many a home is the most important asset that they will ever own and the decision must be made accordingly.
I am a low pressure agent and find that this approach, along with genuinely educating my clients on their choices, leads to me being constantly referred to their friends and family. My clients know that their future financial security is of utmost importance to me and the trust in my advice.
Honesty, integrity and professional skills are the secrets to my success and have led to me being Harcourts Upper Highway Agent of the Year every year since 2010! I am currently the top agent in KZN and in the TOP 3 AGENTS IN SOUTH AFRICA for Harcourts. I look forward to helping you find your next wise investment and treasured family home!
