Like many people, I started from the bottom. Coming from a home that was never wealthy, I aspired for more. I grew up reading inspirational books such as ‘Rich Dad, Poor Dad’ by Robert Kiyosaki, which is one of my favourites. I realised that the only way to be self-sustainable is to have assets, so I became a self-made investor with a proud asset base. I’m always happy and eager to share the lessons I’ve learned and to teach people how they can also reach their greatest potential and become self-sustainable.

Work hard; love people; always do the right thing; and be passionate in your work – that’s my philosphy in life.


Here’s a bit of my background:

I finished school in 1993 at Smuts Malan High School in Riebeeck West. Most of my high-school years were spent in boarding school, where I was taught to stand up for what you want in life.

In 1994 I joined Correctional Services. During this period, I first pursued my passion for real estate, starting a job at Excelmor Properties in 1998, and studying many courses that would pull me closer to my ultimate dream – to do somehting I loved! I found this in real estate. It was with this company that I was taught the ins and outs of selling property.

In 2000 I married my lovely wife, Lizl Ann, with whom I was blessed with 3 children – Liné, Liam and De’an.

In 2003, I resigned from Excelmor to start my very own company out of my home, called Dunn Property Services and in 2016 I got the fantastic opportunity to buy shares in the global and dynamic Harcourts franchise, starting a new chapter under the name of Harcourts Dunn.

I love what I do. And I revel in the chance to show my clients just how passionate I am about ensuring their real estate experience far exceeds all expectations.
