More about Schalk

Real estate is in my blood. Growing up in the property industry with my father’s 30+ years of experience as my foundation, I’ve learned firsthand the value of hard work, integrity, and a genuine respect for people and property alike. These values shape every interaction I have and guide my approach to real estate. With a marketing and business degree, I specialise in property marketing, transactions, and client engagement. Partnering with eXp Realty, the world’s largest independent brokerage, has provided the platform to elevate my career, enabling me to lead a talented team in the Cape Winelands focused on excellence and client-first service. My goal is to expand our market presence while maintaining exceptional client service, positioning us as leaders in the South African real estate market through teamwork, trust, and community support. For me, integrity, honesty, and ethical conduct are of utmost importance and always come before profit, because real profit is the ultimate result of such conduct. If you’re looking to buy, sell, or simply connect about real estate, I’d love to chat. Let’s build something great together.
