I’m Tertia van den Berg, a certified estate agent with Harcourts Blue, proudly serving the Boksburg property market. With more than three decades of active experience in real estate sales and leadership, I bring deep industry knowledge, proven negotiation ability and a strong results-driven mindset to every client I work with. My career began in 1989, and over the years I have built a reputation for professionalism, clear communication and consistently delivering successful outcomes for both sellers and buyers. My background includes working as a Principal and Sales Manager for a well-known national franchise for over a decade, combined with more than 33 years of hands-on sales experience. This depth of experience has shaped my ability to communicate effectively, price accurately and close transactions smoothly—skills that directly benefit my clients throughout the selling and buying process. She is known for clear communication, realistic pricing guidance and creating a structured, stress-free process that helps buyers and sellers move forward with confidence. Throughout my career, I have been recognized for performance and results across multiple regions in South Africa. Early in my career, I was awarded for best market penetration in the Free State while launching a new franchise as a co-principal owner. I later achieved Top Agent status for units sold in KwaZulu-Natal, earning achiever club recognition for both residential sales and developments. Between 2004 and 2009, I was rewarded with Gold membership for units sold and commission earned in the North West province. These achievements reflect a consistent commitment to excellence across diverse markets and economic cycles. Since joining Harcourts Blue in Boksburg in May 2019, my performance has continued at a high level. I have received quarterly achievement awards for commission generated, including Bronze, Silver and Gold, and between 2020 and 2022 I was recognized as part of the Top 10 Agents within the group. These accolades reinforce my ability to deliver strong results while maintaining professional standards and client trust. At the core of my work is assisting clients with property value assessments, as well as the buying and selling of residential property. I pride myself on providing honest, fair appraisals and strategic guidance aimed at achieving the highest possible price in the shortest realistic timeframe. My clients value my structured approach, regular feedback and the essential element of clear, consistent communication throughout the transaction. Being part of Harcourts Blue allows my clients to benefit from advanced marketing systems, innovative technology and a powerful advertising platform, combined with my extensive experience and established client base.

My goal is always to protect my clients’ interests, guide them confidently through the process and deliver outcomes that stand the test of time. Whether you are looking for a property value assessment, planning to sell your home, or considering your next move in Boksburg, you can be confident that you are working with an experienced professional who understands both the market and the importance of trust.

I’m Hilton Kriek, CEO of Harcourts Blue, a fully qualified Property Practitioner registered with the PPRA and holding both my NQF4 and NQF5 Real Estate Qualifications. My career in real estate began in 2014, and what started as an administrative role quickly grew into a deep personal calling. I am proud to have earned multiple honors within the Harcourts network, including the Living the Harcourts Way Award and the Being Courageous Award, both recognizing leadership excellence and an unwavering commitment to people-first service. These values continue to shape the way I lead our organization today. From the moment I stepped into real estate, I understood that this industry is ultimately about people. After eight months as a personal assistant, I transitioned into full-time sales and discovered a passion for negotiation, guidance, and helping families move through major life transitions. As an agent, I achieved Platinum Status within the Harcourts Group and built a strong reputation for accuracy, communication and delivering premium results across residential free-standing homes, sectional-title properties and lifestyle estates. I developed a deep understanding of what sellers and buyers truly need from a professional and how powerful a well-supported agent can be in transforming the client experience. In 2018, I was appointed Sales Manager at Harcourts Blue, where I began training, coaching and mentoring new agents. This became one of the defining chapters of my career. Empowering others, building systems that create consistency and helping new agents grow in confidence and competence became core parts of my purpose. Under my leadership, our office produced four Rising Star winners, awarded to rookie agents who achieved the highest sales nationwide in their first year. This achievement stands as a testament to our culture of excellence, collaboration and development. In 2023, I became the owner of four Harcourts franchises covering Boksburg, Benoni, Germiston and Potchefstroom. Leading a multi-location organization requires vision, discipline and deep strategic understanding. My leadership philosophy is simple: we run a hotel for agents. When our agents feel supported, equipped and inspired, they deliver the best possible experience to our buyers, sellers and investors. My focus is on refining systems, modernizing processes, elevating marketing, integrating advanced technologies such as AI, and building a culture where people thrive. I am committed to continuous learning and staying ahead of industry, economic and legislative changes. Real estate is evolving rapidly, and I believe that strong leadership requires adaptability, innovation and the courage to embrace new tools and strategies. By empowering our team with knowledge, technology and the Harcourts global network, we ensure that our clients receive world-class service and results. Harcourts Blue is built on relationships. We are deeply connected to the communities we serve across the East Rand and Potchefstroom, supporting local families, neighborhood initiatives and organizations that strengthen our cities. I am proud to lead a team that values integrity, professionalism, service excellence and human connection as deeply as I do. My mission is to elevate the real estate experience for every client and every agent. Whether guiding homeowners through life-changing transitions or supporting our agents in building long-term careers, I remain committed to leading with purpose, clarity and heart. Excellence is not an act. It is our standard. And at Harcourts Blue, I am with you all the way.
