About us

In today's digital culture, where solutions are never more than a click away, why is selling your home still so complicated? Fee's, agents, buyers, mandates...it's easy to feel overwhelmed and out of control in no time. Enter: The Realty Boutique. A full estate agency based online. The full benefits of technological advances are yet to be embraced by the real estate industry in South Africa and we're excited to lead you in this innovative venture. Our revolutionized business model means a substantial reduction of fees and no need for impersonal store front premises, that are largely unused by buyers or sellers. Our easy online access and platforms means you have your agent in your pocket. Our dedicated professionals are never more than a call or click away and are able to offer the most efficient, and therefore cost effective, services.

Of course, we understand that change can be daunting and some of our clients love the creature comforts of the tradition agency, so we've decided to offer both, becoming South Africa's first Hybrid Estate Agency.

Over the past 4 years Carys has been involved in every aspect of the industry, from marketing and selling multi-million rand developments, to selling homes and even building a successful rental team. Never one to sit still, she began realizing that things could work better and smoother and that by combining her marketing expertise with her drive for property (and a penchant for technology) something revolutionary could happen. The Realty Boutique is this idea come to fruition, the most dynamic and progressive agency in the province.
