The awards just keep coming for the teams at Just Property. Most recently, it was the turn of Namibia, Stilbaai and Upper Highway franchises to be recognised for excellence in real estate service.

“My goal is that Just Property will soon be the #1 South African Real Estate brand… Our people, processes and technology are all clearly focussed on raising the real estate game in South Africa and this is evident in the recognition our franchise offices are receiving”, says Paul Stevens, CEO of Just Property Group Holding (Pty) Ltd.

FNB Agency and Agent of the Year: Just Property Namibia

“We were up against all the agencies in Namibia and to qualify you need to be putting a minimum of N$60-million through the bank. We won Agency of the Year and Agent of the Year in the N$30-million and N$20-million category,” says Schantal Teichmann of Just Property Namibia.

“We’re always first or second”, says Teichmann. She attributes her team’s continual success to the fact that they are self-driven and very motivated to be the best in the country. “The judges said that we are an amazing company to do this year after year, but we know what it takes: hard work, commitment to our clients and dedication to the best service standards.”

Schantal also acknowledges the assistance of the Just Property Head Office: “Diana in marketing is the best, and I always know I can count on the support I receive from our CEO, Paul Stevens.”

Highway Mail Readers’ Choice Award: Best Agency in Upper Highway

This award comes hot on the heels of Upper Highway’s award for Exceptional Growth at Just Property’s national awards earlier in the year.

Franchisee Ana Roberts says, “We have an amazing team of incredibly passionate property practitioners who work exceptionally hard to deliver service and peace of mind. Receiving this award is special because it means our customers recognise this and voted for us. It means more than any award given by any panel of judges because it came from our customers.”

Ana notes that this loyalty is built on the fact that her team “lives the Just Property values every day, with a particular emphasis on integrity, innovation, excellence and service in terms of customer-facing behaviours. And our focus on teamwork, collaboration, equality and learning means that as a team, we work really well together and grow daily.”

Like Schantal, Ana also acknowledges the support from the Just Property Head Office, from leading-edge systems to brand and marketing support: “The marketing team is always on hand to develop anything we need, and this allows us to innovate and stand out as a brand. We can specialise as property practitioners and not worry about sourcing systems, social media content etc. Just Property is beyond exceptional in its support to franchisees.”

Stilbaai Business Chamber Awards: Silver

Hennie Lötter, franchisee of Just Property Connect is no stranger to awards podiums. His team won New Franchise of the Year in 2018 and 2019, and in 2020 they won the Online Excellence Award, and Stilbaai came 5th nationally for Exceptional Growth in Sales at the Just Property Awards 2021.

Confirming their status as the young, vibrant up-and-coming agency in Stilbaai, Hennie’s team recently won Silver in the Stilbaai Business Chamber Awards, which are voted on by the public in the seaside town.

“This vote of confidence is a testament to our good relationships with each other and our clients,” says Hennie.

What does this award mean for the Stilbaai franchise? “It means a lot and shows that hard work pays off, says Hennie. “I'm a firm believer of teamwork. Great things in business are never done by one person - they're done by a team of people. And I have a great team of agents behind me.”

The PMR Golden Arrow 2022 for Leaders and Achievers: Just Property Port Elizabeth

PMR Africa’s annual awards emanate from a survey of CEOs, MDs, business owners, company directors, managers and senior government officials based in the Eastern Cape Province. This is the 17th consecutive year that they have conducted the survey to identify and recognise the leading companies in the province. Enterprises are measured on their competencies, contribution to the economic growth and development of the Eastern Cape Province, management expertise and corporate governance.

Natasja Vincent of Just Property’s Port Elizabeth franchise says, “We are very honoured to be recognised as one of the companies that positively contributes to the economic growth and development of the Eastern Cape.”

Just Property Port Elizabeth has won this award for the past three years.
