More about Petro

I am Petro Fourie of Riebeek West in the Swartland Region. My passion for property began when my late husband and I moved to the Valley 34 years ago and immediately saw the potential to open my own successful Real Estate office called, Riebeek Eiendomme as there were no estate agents in those days. I always maintained that "Eiendomme loop in my are" which means "Property runs in my veins".

I fully understand all corners of this Valley and my mission is to offer the best service and support throughout my career as this is the most important investment for both Sellers and Buyers. I am an experienced Real Estate Agent with over 20 years of experience in the Industry. Known for my strategic acumen and leadership, I successfully founded and ran Riebeek Eiendomme, as business that gained notable success under my guidance as a Principal.

My expertise and commitment to excellence have made a respected figure in Real Estate with a proven track record of navigating complex transactions and achieving exceptional results.
