Zarel Herbst | Candidate Property Practitioner

For Zarel Herbst, real estate is about guiding people through one of life’s most significant transitions with absolute clarity, precision, and care. Joining Harcourts Rhino in April 2025, Zarel made an immediate, high-impact entrance into the industry, deservingly capturing the prestigious Harcourts Rhino 2025 Rookie of the Year award. He has quickly established himself as a trusted partner for buyers and sellers across the West Rand, operating on a simple, rewarding philosophy: “Nothing is more satisfying than helping clients navigate the market with ease, turning a potentially stressful experience into an enjoyable one, and making new friends along the way.”

Zarel brings a highly sophisticated toolset to the property industry, backed by a formal qualification in APM Prince2 Project Management and an NQF4 National Certificate in Motor Sales. In real estate, this combination is a massive asset for his clients. He approaches every property listing and sale as a critical project—relying on meticulous scheduling, strict timeline management, and premium customer-centric negotiation strategies to ensure a seamless, stress-free transaction from contract to keys.

As the dedicated area specialist for Quellerina, Florida Glen, and Bergbron, Zarel’s deep commitment to clear communication ensures his clients always feel confident and fully informed. His ability to connect with people from all walks of life is mirrored in his personal life, where he serves as the New Member Officer for the Clearwater Harley Owners Group (H.O.G.). This leadership role highlights his natural ability to foster community, welcome newcomers, and build long-lasting relationships based on trust and mutual respect.

Outside of his professional portfolio, Zarel is a passionate motorcycle enthusiast who loves hitting the open road, spending quality time in nature, appreciating local wildlife, and enjoying the peace of the outdoors. Closer to home, Zarel has recently embarked on his greatest and most rewarding chapter yet—proudly celebrating becoming a first-time father. This new milestone deepens his understanding of what a home truly means to a growing family, fueling his drive to help others secure their own pieces of paradise.
