Lana Smith

Andrew Smith, a multiple degree holder from the University of Cape Town, after starting a profitable clothing and hair products business in Claremont during his early student years, began his career in property as a personal assistant to property pioneer, Pam Golding, before proceeding to manage most of their branches along the entire Western Cape. Two years later, he accepted a position with Seeff Properties and commuted between Cape Town, in the Western Cape and Johannesburg in Gauteng, until he bought over and ran the local residential branches for three years.

The go-getter then decided to operate independently and had the option of either starting his own company or of importing a brand with a well-established reputation from overseas.

Smith believed that the branding and reputation associated with Cluttons in the UK would encourage and establish a solid client base in South Africa.

Smith left Cluttons in 2008 and in 2010, Andrew, and his wife, Lana saw another opportunity and got the license to operate Chesterton, with 70 offices in the UK and international offices in Europe, Asia, Australia, the Middle East and now Africa.

Lana set up and managed the rental division for Seeff and Cluttons SA and worked as the rental manager for the last 15 years, and has taken her experience and knowledge to successfully manage the rental division for Chesterton South Africa for the last 10 months. Since there launch of Chesterton in South Africa, Lana has also been involved in many sales for this and their already established company, namely Stonehurst Properties.

The Smiths have travelled to every major country in the world, observing the trends and practices in real estate and noting ideas for advancing this field.

Andrew and Lana Smith are set to change the face of the property industry in South Africa and abroad.
