Justine Smart

More about Justine

I am a qualified Sales and Rental Agent with 12 years’ experience in the industry.

After having matriculated at Collegiate High in Port Elizabeth, I enrolled at the Nelson Mandela Bay University and graduated with a BCom Marketing Management Degree in 2010.

I joined Smart Properties shortly thereafter, as to what was supposed to be “temporary employment” as a new graduate, but needless to say, here I am 8 years later!

I have recently completed my internship under my Principal, Gordon Smart, and in December 2017, achieved the requirements of a Full Status Agent and became a Professional Practitioner in Real Estate (PPRE).

At Smart Properties, I manage the Smart Properties Rental Division as well as look after the day to day running of the business.

I am an avid golfer and maintain a good balance by keeping fit and active in between the heavy demand of my working life. My family is my greatest support system and motivating factor. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my close group of friends, baking and traveling along our coastline.

If you have any property related matters that you would like to chat with me about, please feel free to make contact with me either telephonically or via e-mail. I will gladly assist!
