Lofty's foray into the property industry commenced after he acquired the Lew Geffen Sotheby's International Realty franchise in February 2005. During the past 15 years the franchise has grown and now services a large part of the Eastern Cape as well as the former Transkei. Lofty was initially involved on a part time basis, while looking after his accounting / tax practise and various other business interests. As the property bug manifested itself, he became more involved and now looks after the commercial / industrial portfolio and leads a team of experienced professional residential real estate brokers having more than 170 years experience. The franchise and brokers both having won numerous regional and national awards. Lofty's accounting / tax consultancy practise ideally prepared him for selling commercial property as he understands the financial terms and can therefore easily communicate with his clients / investors, and source their required properties. Lofty feels that being part of the Sotheby's International Realty brand is a great advantage as the brand has an extensive network of over 1000 offices in 72 countries. Sotheby's has a very proud heritage been founded in 1744 and is the oldest registered trademark in the world. The brand is the epitome of trust and creates local and international exposure.
