Karryn Cartoulis of RE/MAX Living: A Driving Force in Luxury Real Estate

This year has marked a defining moment for Karryn Cartoulis of REMAX Living, recently recognized among the TOP 100 Real Estate Brokers of the World, a distinction awarded by Luxury Lifestyle Awards. This international recognition further elevates her profile as one of South Africa’s strongest performers in the luxury property arena. As her achievements continue to shape market expectations, Karryn stands as a force driving high-level results for clients across Cape Town and beyond.

A Career Built on Performance and Consistency

Karryn’s professional journey spans almost two decades at RE/MAX Living, during which she has consistently ranked at the top of her field. As a recipient of the RE/MAX International Lifetime Achievement Award and a Double Diamond Club member, she operates at a level few achieve globally. Her track record is exceptional:

  • 1st in Southern Africa for seven years.
  • A repeated top performer in competitive categories, cementing her history as one of the strongest achievers in RE/MAX’s South African operations.

These milestones reflect sustained excellence in Cape Town’s luxury property sector, an arena where expectations are high and competition is fierce. Her ability to consistently perform in this specialized market underscores her professionalism and strategic approach.

The Strength of a Global Network

One of Karryn’s greatest advantages is her extensive, border-spanning network. Unlike area-restricted agents, she operates with reach across local, national, and international markets. This empowers luxury buyers and investors to collaborate with one trusted professional, regardless of location.

This approach is particularly powerful in the high-end property space, where personal relationships and direct communication often outweigh broad-reach marketing. Through her connections, international clients are introduced to the strengths of South African real estate, often finding it more compelling than comparable global offerings. Her ability to identify the right buyer at the right price is a direct result of this strong network, combined with her knowledge of what luxury clients expect, both locally and abroad.

A Client Experience Driven by Reliability and Integrity

Customer service remains a cornerstone of her approach. Clients working with Karryn consistently receive elevated levels of guidance, transparent communication, and thorough market insight. Her professionalism is matched by qualities that define her reputation: positivity, honesty, absolute reliability, and a high standard of care. Her many quality-assurance achievements reflect this service philosophy, showing that her success is rooted not only in numbers but in how she treats people. As she often says, “People do business with people because they choose to, not because they have to.” This mindset, paired with her drive and attention to detail, positions her as a trusted partner in high-value transactions.

Accolades That Highlight Her Industry Standing

Karryn’s achievements are extensive and reflect her long-standing influence within the property sector. Some of her most recent recognitions include:

Diamond Club • 1st Nationally: 2015, 2016, 2017

Double Diamond Club • 1st Nationally: 2019, 2022, 2023, 2024

Top 25 Globally
