More about Allana
Allana Smith has been passionate about real estate since her earliest years and always knew that she wanted to chart a path helping others and found her true calling in real estate serving her clients and guiding them through one of the biggest investments of their lives. Over the past 6 years, Allana has been involved in real estate and has won awards from her first year in real estate, being Rookie Agent of the Year and most recently the Gold Club Award. Allana feels incredibly blessed to work with amazing clients who become her friends and a strong part of her network. With her background in publishing and marketing, she has taken all this experience and focused on the real estate industry, having obtained full status and qualified as a Professional Practitioner in Real Estate (PPRE). Allana isn’t just passionate about helping families find their next home but has served in her local charity organizations, set up her own community initiatives, most recently Helmet’s on Heads, for all cycling commuters, and loves being a part of other Cape Town community events. As a Capetonian, I bring passion and excitement for the city to my approach to finding a home or selling a home for you. I will help you obtain the Cape Town property you’ve always dreamed of by focusing our strategy on your individual style, needs, and budget. Like everyone who falls hard for Cape Town, I am a total foodie, outdoors enthusiast, and history nut. When I’m not hustling houses, you’ll find me running, playing tennis, watching my son compete in surfing, exploring our city’s best food scene, or at one of our gorgeous beaches with the family hound in tow. It’s easy to sell something when you have an absurd passion for it.

Once both parties sign the OTP, it finalizes the terms of sale, including the purchase price, property description, and any special conditions. Buyers can withdraw under certain conditions, but doing so without meeting the terms may lead to penalties. It’s crucial for both buyers and sellers to review the document carefully before signing to avoid legal and financial complications.
