Jaco Rademeyer – Top 40 Under 40

By

The Top 40 under 40 is a showcase of local business talent under the age of 40 compiled by the Nelson Mandela Bay Business Chamber (NMBBC).

Jaco Rademeyer (29) the Owner and Principal of Jaco Rademeyer Estates, as a novice estate agent in 2005, walked away with the Institute of Estate Agents’ award for Rookie of the Year.

He’s been named Agent of the Year for the most units sold and the most commission earned, the Property Professional of SA 2010 and shows no signs of slowing down. This dynamic go-getter is motivated by personal success. “I believe I am my own biggest commodity,” says Rademeyer.

With an LLB under his belt, Rademeyer’s growth in the property market included hosting a Sunday radio programme on local community radio station Bay FM, tackling property matters for listeners around the Eastern Cape. He writes weekly columns for three newspapers, and acts as a guest legal expert on a popular online property portal.

Rademeyer has a variety of business interests, which he balances with community involvement – more than four hundred learners have benefited from the Jaco Rademeyer Training Academy, an initiative aimed at encouraging high school students to enter the real estate industry.

His active involvement in community development has led to the sponsorship of various sports teams and events, including the Nedbank National Championships for the physically disabled.

The Top 40 Under 40 list, an NMBBC initiative, was compiled from nominations and selected by an independent panel at the NMBBC. The end result is a showcase of talented and ambitious young businesspeople from diverse sectors in Nelson Mandela Bay. From 7 December 2011, MyPE showcases one under 40 achiever a day.
