Over the years, I have excelled both as a Sales Agent and a Rental Agent, earning recognition and awards for my exceptional service. I take great pride in finding the perfect home, investment, property or farm for buyers and providing professional assistance throughout the process. With a strong focus on achieving success, I offer a wealth of experience and am committed to delivering top-notch service to my clients.

• Rental property management: I specialise in managing both residential and commercial rental properties, ensuring seamless transactions for landlords and tenants alike.
• Buyer representation: I provide excellent communication skills and valuable insights to buyers, guiding them through the process of finding and purchasing their ideal properties.

Areas of Expertise:
Born and raised in Walvis Bay, Namibia, I possess an in-depth knowledge of the local neighbourhoods and have a keen understanding of the property market in the region. While my primary focus has been residential properties, I also have experience in agricultural and industrial areas. I stay informed about investment opportunities in Walvis Bay and maintain close relationships with property valuators to ensure accurate assessments. By staying up to date with interest rates and market trends, I can provide valuable insights to clients seeking properties in the area.

Professional Associations:
I collaborate closely with prominent companies to assist with their residential and industrial /commercial property needs. One of my esteemed clients is Sanitech. Additionally, I keep myself updated on local and international market situations, enabling me to address the evolving needs of clients. Continuous training and obtaining relevant certifications, such as the Residential Property Economic Outlook 2023, ensure that I remain well-informed and equipped to provide the highest level of service to my clients.

Personal Interests:
In my free time, I find joy in engaging in creative activities like scrapbooking, building puzzles and swimming. Family outings and travel are among my favourite pastimes, with Zanzibar being a beloved destination. Additionally, I have valuable experience managing a Bed-and-breakfast for seven years, which has given me insights into the hospitality industry.

Languages Spoken:
I am fluent in both Afrikaans and English, with English being my mother tongue. While I have a basic understanding of German and have completed a German course a few years ago, my proficiency in the language is limited.

Additional Information:
With exceptional communication skills, I prioritise effective interaction with my clients. I am always available to address their needs and concerns promptly. My ability to understand people extends beyond any awards I have received, such as Agent of the Year or Client Choice of Agent. It stems from my genuine enjoyment of helping individuals find their perfect home or business property. I firmly believe that investing in real estate remains one of the best long-term investments one can make. Despite fluctuations in the market, property values have shown significant declines due to global events. However, even with these ups and downs, I am confident in the enduring value of real estate as a solid investment choice.
