More about Hanelie

I am a professional staff nurse by trade and after my retrenchment in 2018, I joined Harcourts Cyan in 2019 as an office administrator as well as assisting with rentals. I am proud of the progress I have made on my real estate journey as I have already completed and obtained my National Certificate: Real Estate (NQF4) in 2022. I am a Property Practitioner for sales in Kriel and Bethal and I do rentals in these areas as well.

I am an open book with a warm and welcoming smile and bubbly personality and I always strive to do my best and put my clients first – this is evident in the client experience ratings I receive from my clients. I have also achieved Agent of the Month for 2 months in a row. With my knowledge and experience in dealing with clients, I can do the same for you!
