Selling Property runs in the Blood

Category News

Being the leader in the Property industry in Helderberg has its challenges when it comes to selling, letting, and any other business. For 52 years Realtors International Strand has been operating from the same address, opposite Strand Pavillion at 75 Beach Road, Strand 021-854 7220.

So many memories and so many stories can be told. When entering the office you can see the years of experience, knowledge, dedication, and professionalism. Old typewriters on display, even a fax machine, and who can remember floppy/stiffy disks? All history under one roof.

It's not always easy, our normal Sunday Braai is not the same as other families. A household where business and family are one. You always end up chatting about business, especially if 3 generations of working family members exchange "braaibroodjies" and the fourth generation running around the table in circles. The first to remember is that there is something to learn from everybody.

Historically known as Gustrouw Estates (PTY) Ltd it is a stalwart that has weathered numerous storms in the South African property market. Founded in 1968 by Blanche V Fourie, Realtors International now employs 19 Selling Agents, 2 Rental Agents, a Business Broker, and Body Corporation Management staff as well as admin employees. Managing the business is Leon C Fourie (son) alongside Jan O Fourie (widower to Blanch).

Blanche Fourie was a mother, wife, sister, and grandmother to many generations working at Realtors International Strand and many to come. She was the perfect mentor and gathered the guidance and principles to teach her family and colleagues growing up with Realtors International Strand. By studying the property market she knew what Helderberg needed and wanted when starting to operate as an estate agency.

Being one of the first Estate Agencies and being able to celebrate 52 years of existence in the Helderberg was hard work and dedication not only by the Fourie Family but also by family and employees that form part of the family.

All the agents at Realtors International Strand are qualified NQF level 4 and above or in the process of qualifying and are designated at PDE level 4 or above or in the process of qualifying. Each of the agents at Realtors International Strand has a valid Fidelity Fund Certificate from the Estate Agencies Affairs Board (PPRA) as required by law.

With the heritage and a track record that speaks for itself, Realtors International Strand should be your first choice when planning to buy, sell, let or rent a property now and in the future.
