Looking back on your career, do you have a funny story to share?

This was when we had to fly one of my colleagues up to Johannesburg to close out a Sale on my behalf. We then discovered that the seller was very friendly but there was just a language barrier which caused slight mistrust. 

 What exciting trends do you see in the property industry?

The development of the Cape Town City Centre has brought about diversity and created a cosmopolitan feeling changing and also affording ownership to all people with the introduction of the micro units. 

What advice would you give to someone starting out in the industry?

Treat this industry as an 8:00-17h00 job and always bear in mind that you are also required to go the extra mile. You are working with people who can be sensitive especially as moving can much stress. Consistently communicate, be diligent, prepare in advance, and be organized. Learn to be systematic and follow up promptly.
