I entered the Property Industry in 1988 as a secretary to a new Company which had started in Port Shepstone. I wrote the Estate Agent’s Board Examination in 1989, as you could not be a candidate agent in those days. The property market was very strong and many of the Home Owners invested in a second and third property and hence the rental side to the company started which I managed under the guidance of our Principal at the time. Due to personal circumstances I left the company and my career went into a total different direction, but always dealing with the public. I later became a sales executive representing various factories based in Johannesburg. The company grew from strength to strength, which brought me to Port Elizabeth incorporating the Eastern Cape, Western Cape, Natal, Swaziland into my areas. I moved to Port Elizabeth in 2006. There was a change in the market and I was no longer needed by the company I represented. I then joined the Summerton Rentals team as a rental agent in November 2008 and did my NQLF4. The company has grown from strength to strength. I have my own portfolio of property that I manage. Included in my portfolio is a block of flats that is owned by one company, as well as houses and townhouses and individually owned flats. The suburbs ranging from Kabega, Westering, Lorraine, Charlo, Walmer, Newton Park, Central, South End, Summerstrand etc. to name a few.

I am always looking for new properties to rent to perspective tenants, and through my client base, I do receive referrals, but am always looking for more properties to manage.

My goal is to provide my clients with a professional service at all times.
