The Collection

Only a handful of
homes at a time

I only take on a small number of homes, so every one gets my full attention. Each offers something worth remembering: a beautiful way of living, an exceptional location or the ability to make arriving in South Africa feel remarkably easy.

From young professionals starting out in a new city to families settling in for five years, this is a collection of private homes, second homes and executive rentals chosen for international buyers, relocating families and the companies that move them. Let me show you around.

Private Sales

Not every beautiful Johannesburg home goes on the open market. I share some publicly and introduce others privately, only to qualified buyers.

Your Guide

Every home, sourced personally

I moved to Johannesburg from the UK in 2010. Since then I have helped more than 300 international families make South Africa feel like home.

Every property in this collection is represented or sourced by me personally. That means one person who knows the house, the street and the school run, and who will tell you the truth about all three.

For Homeowners

Selling your much-loved home?

I represent a small, carefully selected collection of properties for international buyers, relocating executives and returning South Africans looking for exceptional homes.

Every home is positioned thoughtfully and presented with warmth, discretion and a clear understanding of what an international buyer needs to see.

Pricing & Presentation

  • An informed valuation and pricing strategy
  • Editorial photography, film and personally guided video tours with me
  • Private and off-market marketing where discretion matters

Reach & Representation

  • Exposure through Home Joburg's international relocation network and selected property platforms
  • Direct introductions to qualified buyers, corporate partners and relocation professionals
  • One dedicated point of contact from preparation and viewings through to negotiation and transfer

This is not about showing your home to the largest possible audience. It is about presenting it beautifully and placing it in front of the right people.

FAQ

Questions I'm asked most

What is a corporate home in Johannesburg?

A corporate home is a house, cottage or apartment rented by an international professional or relocating family who has moved to Johannesburg for work. I choose each one for its location and how easily you can settle in, so you arrive to a proper home rather than a hotel room.

How long can I rent a corporate home for?

Anything from a single night to a five-year family posting. Short stays like Central Parkhurst are available by the night or by the month. Cottages suit stays of a few months to a full year. Family homes such as the Westcliff Farmhouse are available as longer-term rentals.

Are the homes furnished?

Some are. Both Parkhurst short stays come furnished, so you can arrive with suitcases and start living straight away. Longer-term family homes vary, so tell me whether you are shipping furniture and I will only show you homes that fit.

How much does it cost to rent a corporate home in Johannesburg?

It depends on the home and how long you stay. As a guide, Central Parkhurst costs R2,975 a night or R33,000 a month. The Parkhurst Launch Pad is R4,500 a night. The Westcliff Farmhouse rents for R109,000 a month.

Which areas do you cover?

The homes available right now are in Parkhurst and Westcliff. I also source homes across Johannesburg, plus second homes in the bush, on the coast, in the Winelands and on farms across South Africa.

Do you work with companies and relocation providers?

Yes. I find homes for relocating families and for the companies that move them, and I work alongside corporate partners and relocation professionals. Your employee deals with one person who knows the home, the street and the school run.

How do I view the private collection?

Apply to view it. Some homes are shared publicly, while others are only introduced privately to qualified buyers, so I ask a few questions first.

I have a cottage to let. What does it cost to list it with you?

Nothing. Joining my private landlord database is free, with no listing fees and no commission to pay. I match cottages with international professionals who want a home for a few months to a full year.
