Jen
Agent of the Month
I joined the Harcourts Patrick & Co family as a Property Practitioner in 2016, bringing with me over 26 years of experience in the travel industry, including owning and running my own successful travel agency. Throughout my career, one thing has remained constant – a genuine passion for helping people realise their dreams.
Buying a home is one of the most important investments a person will ever make, and I consider it a true privilege to guide my clients through that journey. Matching buyers with the right property and helping sellers achieve the best possible result is incredibly rewarding, and I pride myself on providing a professional, personalised service every step of the way.
Having lived in Hilton for over 35 years, I have an in-depth understanding of the area and its property market. My strong local knowledge, combined with my commitment to exceptional service, allows me to confidently assist buyers and sellers throughout Hilton, Howick and the northern suburbs of Pietermaritzburg.
As a long-distance marathon runner, perseverance and dedication are part of who I am. I understand what it means to go the extra mile — and I bring that same determination to every property transaction, always striving to achieve the best possible outcome for my clients.
If you are looking to buy or sell in the Northern suburbs of Pietermaritzburg, Hilton and the surrounding areas, I would be delighted to assist you on your property journey.
