About Etienne van Leeuwen

Etienne van Leeuwen. Full status property practitioner/Political risk analyst turned real estate enthusiast/Guesthouse owner. After years navigating the complexities of political risk analysis and building strategic networks, I traded the hustle of international intrigue for the charm of Swellendam in 2008. Since 2010, I’ve been knee-deep in real estate helping people find their dream properties in this picturesque town. You will also find me running a cosy historic guesthouse – where I get to blend hospitality with my keen insights into South Africa’s vibrant property market.
