JOHAN HORAK
Sales Manager
After completing a successful career in corporate banking I decided to take a sabbatical for a year during which I’ve written all the regulatory exams and registered as a property practitioner. I soon realized to be a top producing real estate agent requires great work ethic, coupled with a passion for people and real estate. Luckily I’m a person with a zest for life who has the determination and willingness to invest time and effort for long-term gains.
