Vanessa Deacon

Harcourts Summerton / Non-Principal Property Practitioner
More about Vanessa

I am a Property Practitioner, accredited with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology obtained from Nelson Mandela University.

Upon completion of my studies, I worked as a Recruitment Consultant. Having worked in an increasingly fast-paced world, I came to realize that whilst people want the most professional efficient service, they also value the fundamentals of honesty and integrity from consultants committed to successfully achieving their clients’ objectives.

I had the opportunity to live in Frankfurt, Germany for a few years and during this time, I traveled extensively.

After taking a few years off from the formal employment sector to raise my two daughters, I returned to the retail industry. This was followed by a few years with a well-known hospitality brand and later joined the inbound travel industry.

With vast experience acquired in the service industry, a real passion for people, an impeccable work ethic and integrity - I continue to strive towards excellent service delivery and customer care.

My interests include reading fiction/historical non-fiction, photography, running, golf and extreme adventures like river rafting and skydiving.

I am proud to be part of the very professional Harcourts Summerton team and their commitment to “going the extra mile”.

"To create clients for life through the finest service" is the key core value of the Harcourts Mission Statement, and this I strongly endorse.
