GRAAFF-REINET NEWS - The property industry is very challenging and demands people to work long hours while facing daily rejection from customers, yet local Seeff agent Lynette McNaughton has managed to very successfully craft a career through real estate, over a number of years, in Graaff-Reinet.

While serving as an agent for Seeff Properties, Lynette has been recognised as a leader in her field, receiving numerous awards and accolades in the Real Estate profession, such as being recognised as Top Branch Agent on many occasions with several Service of Excellence certificates decorating her office walls.

Although part of this success is undoubtedly down to her strong reputation and personal brand, McNaughton is proof that having a strong team, marketing effectively and knowing how to work with people is crucial for a real-estate agent who wants to achieve similar success.

When asked by the Advertiser what advice she can share with the women in Graaff-Reinet, Lynette replied as follows: "As a real estate agent, you’re essentially working for yourself. Just as you would in Real Estate, before starting any business, you should make sure you have the right character traits to work for yourself. If you’re thinking about starting a business of your own, go for it! Surround yourself with people who will support you and encourage you to keep going. Be prepared to work harder than you ever thought possible but always remember what inspired you in the first place."
