More about Colin

My passion for property and real estate goes back decades. After a 20-year career in architecture, I took the leap into real estate when an exciting opportunity presented itself. Those years of experience have stood me in good stead for assessing property opportunities and pitfalls. I was only interested in embarking on the property journey with a highly professional and reputable real estate agency: and so chose Jawitz Properties, a brand I truly believe in. My background fuses with my career in real estate, and gives me a ‘sixth sense’ and a great understanding of homes and buildings: both residential and commercial. I grew up and have always lived in the central north of Johannesburg and know the areas I work in well. I live in Greenside and head up the suburb’s Heritage Portfolio. I love my daily interactions with both buyers and sellers.

Selling an Overpriced Property: How to Bounce Back and Attract Buyers

18 Aug 2025

When it comes to selling a home, every property owner dreams of securing the best possible price. Unfortunately, one of the most common mistakes sellers make is setting the price too high. While it might seem like a good idea to “test the market,” overpricing can backfire, leaving a home stuck on the market for months, attracting little interest, and eventually forcing the seller to accept less than fair value.
