Platinum
Jan Myburgh is the Operating Partner and Director at Harcourts Platinum, the leading Harcourts office in South Africa in both sales value and income, as well as No. 1 Auction office. Under Jan’s leadership, Harcourts Platinum has consistently ranked as the top achieving office in South Africa—not only for 2025 but also for several prior consecutive years. The office also manages the second-largest rental portfolio within the Harcourts Group and holds significant market share in both listings and sales in the residential market of the Helderberg region.
Jan brings 23 years of real estate marketing and sales experience to the table. Prior to his real estate career, he completed a two-year stint in the infantry, finishing military service in 1984—a common path for young South African men at the time. He then joined the National Intelligence Service in 1985, where he served until 1996. During this period, Jan completed a Bachelor’s degree in Politics and International Politics, followed by a Master’s Diploma in Industrial Psychology from Rand Afrikaans University (RAU).
In 2009, Jan started the Harcourts Training Academy for Harcourts in South Africa and spent the next decade shaping the professional development of the brand’s agents and staff. He went on to serve as Head of Academy and later as National General Manager for Harcourts South Africa.
In February 2019, after 30 years living in Durban, Jan relocated to Somerset West to take on the role of Operating Partner at Harcourts Platinum, where he continues to lead one of the most successful offices in the Harcourts global network.
