About the founders
Sandra Malele
Sandra Malele has always had a keen passion for property investment and bought her first apartment at the tender age of 24yrs.
Whilst she has more than 18 years experience in Marketing Research professionally, she has always focused on acquiring property for rental income in both Gauteng and the Western Cape, building up a property portfolio over time of both furnished and unfurnished units.
Some of the units she has managed also required extensive refurbishment before the tenanting phase could begin.In 2023, she decided to turn her passion for property into her full-time focus, by providing residential units at a bigger scale, having now understood the intricacies of property investment, project management and the financial due diligence involved in property investment.
