LINDA VAN NES IN RE/MAX SOUTHERN AFRICA’S HALL OF FAME
Local RE/MAX estate agents in top 10 RE/MAX released their spectacular 2013 YTD results in May. Included in the latest results are three RE/MAX Helderberg sales associates – Linda van Nes, Elmaré Doran and Maarten Laubscher – who received quarterly achievement awards for their rankings within the top 10 RE/MAX agents in the Western and Northern Cape. “Having three of the top 10 RE/ MAX Individual Sales Associates in the Northern and Western Cape regions on our team is a massive victory for us,” says RE/MAX Helderberg broker/ owner, Lee Siebert, proudly. “There are literally several hundred highly successful RE/ MAX sales associates within these two regions – and the cream on the top is in our Somerset West office in Waterstone Village!” RE/MAX Helderberg was again recognised as the top single office in the Western and Northern Cape in RE/MAX SA’s 2013 results and is in second position nationally. RE/MAX Southern Africa announced last week that Linda Van Nes had attained RE/MAX Hall of Fame for the Southern African region, one of the most prestigious career achievement awards within the international RE/MAX Group. “Carefully listening to my sellers and buyers and making an inventory of my client’s requirements and desires, is elementary in brokering a successful deal,” was her reaction. “Good communication and feedback to my clients is an absolute must too. In that respect, speaking several languages is a big advantage – I am skilled in conversations in Afrikaans, Dutch, English, German and even a smattering of French. My knowledge of the property market in Somerset West in general, as well as the actual offer of properties for
sale, makes it easier for me to match buyers with their future home. And this is the most rewarding part of my profession.” Over the past 13 years she has been involved in more than 500 property transactions. Every year she has consistently achieved awards based on her sales volumes. This year has been an exceptional year thus far for this enthusiastic real estate professional. Recently, the spotlight shone on Van Nes as the top RE/MAX agent in the Western and Northern Cape YTD. Van Nes believes that RE/MAX South Africa and RE/MAX Interna-
tional select and invest in property professionals, constantly educating and training their estate agents. “This is why our standards are high and why we are number one locally, nationally and internationally.” “Websites, marketing tools such as TV adverts and all developments within social media are becoming more important in our industry every day. We, as property professionals at RE/MAX, have all these tools at our disposal and consequently are equipped to sell a property within the sole mandate period, at the desired price level and with the least hassle,” explains Van Nes.
“RE/MAX Helderberg offers me the ideal office location at Waterstone Village shopping precinct with the perfect showcase scoop of our mandates on a 365/24/7 basis. Together with my fellow estate agents, admin colleagues and our broker/owner, Lee Siebert, we make sales happen,” she says. Elmaré Doran’s career in real estate began in 1989 and by 1995 she managed her own real estate company. She joined RE/MAX in 2009 and achieved Platinum Club Status within three years. When asked what her experiences in her real estate have taught her,
Linda van Nes: “Having a positive attitude to life and a healthy sense of humour has been my recipe for success!”
Elmaré Doran: “With my 24 years of real estate experience, I am li ving the RE/MAX dream with pas sion.”
Maarten Laubscher: “85% of my clients are sourced through referred business!”

Doran says: “Forming lifelong relationships which lead to a referral based success system has worked for me. I have always been a top achiever and have been richly rewarded for my efforts by the recurring business that I conclude with my clients. In fact, the majority of my business derives from personal referrals from past satisfied clients. “I have attained great heights within the RE/MAX system, and have continuously won numerous sales and service awards. I am proudly among the top three RE/ MAX agents in the Western and Northern Cape YTD in 2013. “My success is based on my referral network, my knowledge and experience of the market and the incredible assistance and networking opportunities that I receive from RE/MAX. I am looking forward to the rest of 2013 and to assisting new and existing clients.” Maarten Laubscher is wellknown for delivering results and for excellent after-sales customer service. “I have been in the property industry since 2003. In my real estate career, spanning a decade, I have sold to hundreds of satisfied clients,” explains Laubscher. “Because I give my clients excellent service, they talk to their friends and family about me, and then refer them to me! That’s where 85% of my business comes from. I joined RE/MAX Helderberg seven years ago and have achieved RE/ MAX sales awards for seven consecutive years. I find our location at Waterstone Village incredible. As a team we are concluding a minimum of one sale everyday!” For more information contact RE/MAX Helderberg, Shop 33, Waterstone Village on 021 852 6464 or visit www.remax.co.za
