My name is Lize Pretorius. I am married to Gert Pretorius and we have three beautiful children whom are our greatest blessing and investment.
I am a child of God and that forms an integral part of my Identity.
I studied a three year diploma in tourism but a short move to the ground breaking City of Kimberley in the early nineties led to my path crossing with the Property Industry.
Shortly after moving back to my “hometown” Pretoria, I got a job offer from EG Chapman and Kroon Konstruksie to help with the Launch and sales of the second Golf Development in Pretoria, Centurion Residential Estate.
After the great successful sale of this development a view others followed:
Woodhill Golf Estate (Pretoria), Cornwall Hill Estate (Centurion), Birdwood Estate (Hartbeespoortdam), Koro Creek Golf Estate (Nylstroom), and The Hills Eco Estate (Pretoria)
In 2003, together with Gert, my husband we started our own Property Company, called Accommodation Station.
We wanted to invest our time, knowledge and experience in the Industry and chose to focus on the Student Market. We sold a Residential Flat Development in Queenswood, Pretoria and this opened the opportunity to also start letting Accommodation. The need for a fuller focus on the Property market became apparent to us. We extended the business not to only selling but also letting of Residential, Commercial & Retail Property.
After raising my kids for a while I have recently re-joined the wonderful team at Accommodation Station again and realized that they form part of my heart and my home.
I love this Industry.
