Karen Odendaal: Olympus property specialist
Category Property Practitioner Profiles
Hi! I'm a property practitioner for the CSi Property Group, specialising in properties in Olympus, Pretoria.
What makes you stand out in the real estate industry?
People choose agents they trust and relate to, so I make sure that clients get to know me on a personal level as much as possible. I also know the ins and outs of Olympus like the back of my hand and I share information about amenities, schools and transport options. I also listen actively to both landlords' and tenants' needs and tailor solutions accordingly. The rental process can be stressful and I provide regular updates during the process to keep everybody informed.
Tell us about the area you specialise in and what you love about it.
One of the biggest factors that makes Olympus a great home is its strategic location. If you live in Olympus, you have easy access to major roads like Atterbury Road and Solomon Mahlangu Drive. This makes your commute easy while also maintaining a peaceful suburban ambience. Olympus provides the best of both worlds: a serene environment and convenience on your doorstep.
What are your secrets for helping people buy, sell or rent property?
The secret to my success lies in spending time truly understanding my clients' goals, preferences and concerns before recommending any particular property. I also focus on long-term relationships by staying in touch with past clients and offering value beyond the transaction.
What advice would you give somebody looking to buy or rent a property in the area that you specialise in?
The first step is to explore Olympus thoroughly and make sure that it's the right home for you. Secondly, you should look at the specific complex that you're considering renting in and make sure that it meets your needs. Then inspect the unit that you're considering renting carefully and ask about rules and regulations. Take your time when making a decision.
