Southern suburbs real estate master Jacques Bronkhorst has decided to convert his top-performing agency to the Chas Everitt International brand.
A former winner of the national Property Professional of the Year award in 2005, Bronkhorst first made his name in Johannesburg’s new south through his own agency, Pulse Realty, which he started in 2002 before joining another national group in 2007.

He says now it’s time to move on and grow again, adding that his team is excited about becoming part of Chas Everitt International.
This group has a great national infrastructure in place and provides outstanding support to its franchisees, agents and clients.
It is also way out in front when it comes to the application of new real estate technologies and in particular the use of online marketing, he says.
Berry Everitt, group managing director of Chas Everitt International, says they are thrilled to have Bronkhorst on board as a new franchisee.
“We have admired his talent, determination and achievements for many years and his agency is undoubtedly the market leader in the southern suburbs and we have no doubt it will be a valuable addition to the group.”
Everitt explains that Bronkhorst shares the family values expressed in the group’s vision and mission and through him, the brand will be expanded into this area with the utmost integrity.
The agency will continue to serve buyers and sellers right across the new south and in Alberton, including areas such as Glenvista, Bassonia, Mulbarton, Meyersdal, Brackenhurst and Brackendowns.
This is an active market at the moment with sectional title units popular among first-time buyers starting from about R550 000 and cluster homes available at prices from the R1.7 million range.
He says both buyer enquiries and sales numbers are on the increase and we are confident that with the backing of our new franchisor, 2012 will prove to be a very successful year.
