Gert Van der Merwe

<p><strong>Property Practitioner with 3-in-1 Service offering</strong></p><p>I started shaping my business acumen from the young age of 13, during school and university holidays, working in the modular home manufacturing environment. After obtaining my B.Com Honors Hons. degree in business economics, I joined Small Business Development Corporation, functioning as a turnaround consultant saving distressed businesses.</p><p>At Business Partners, I served as deal maker, financing businesses and properties. I started investing in student accommodation since 2002, and invite anybody interested in student accommodation to contact me. My career as Real Estate Agent started in 2015, joining eXp Realty South Africa in 2023 as full status agent, eager to assist buyers and sellers of properties and businesses.</p><p>I am a true believer in Robert Kiyosaki&#39;s four quadrant model, stating that if you want to achieve greater financial independence and freedom, you need to start learning the skills and mindset required to make a move away from being an employee or just working for yourself, to rather become a business owner and Investor yourself, a philosophy I follow since 2004.&nbsp;</p><p>My passion is to assist Realtors to break free from their outdated way of doing things, where they will remain slaves to their employers, by providing them with my 3-in-1 service offering. As eXp Realtor, I offer non-eXp agents the opportunity to become shareholders in the best Real Estate Company, providing them with a business model and platform to run their own Real Estate Business, without being a principal themselves. To enhance their deal flow, I assist them to source more deals by using my marketing platform, www.privatebuyer.com. Lastly I developed a niche service offering, through Realtor Support Centre, to help realtors in my downline, to grow their own business network, enabling them to make full use of the benefits of earning passive income.</p><p>Through this 3-in-1 Service Offering, a network of realtors is formed, to benefit buyer and sellers of properties or businesses across the globe, offering the highest level of service matching sellers and buyers, beyond agency and area borders. This combination of services offer buyers, sellers, or their representatives, the best opportunity to find their ideal solution, to serve the interest of their clients.&nbsp;</p>
