FFC 2023329497 I started my Real Estate Career in 1997, specializing in the prestigious Waterkloof- and Old East areas of Pretoria, South Africa. I passed the EAAB Board exam in the same year and completed the CRS course shortly afterward. After 10 very successful years with RE/MAX where I obtained the prestigious HALL of FAME award, I was ready to venture out on my own and started my own business together with a colleague. Being so well known in our area, working under our own names as Elsa & Iola Estates, we were hugely successful. I am NQF5 qualified. Relocating to Cape Town and operating in these beautiful surroundings is such a privilege. Being part of a team of top achiever colleagues is a sure plus and I am hugely enthusiastic and passionate to provide the same service in the Atlantic Seaboard areas that will guarantee the same success. Home is where the heart is. The satisfaction of finding a client the perfect house that will become home to them is what fuels my passion for the Real Estate Industry.
