Our story
A small agency, on purpose.
Crescent Real Estate has sold and let Johannesburg homes since March 1991, and is now based in Bergbron.


Since March 1991
Built on trust and respect, one client at a time.
Crescent Real Estate sells, lets and manages homes and business premises in Johannesburg. It is owned and run by Fatima Saley, who has worked in the city’s property market since 1991.
From her office in Bergbron, Fatima works the suburbs she knows well. The aim is simple: the right property at a fair price, whether you are buying, selling or renting.
Buying or selling property is one of the biggest decisions most people make. A good agent makes it clearer: someone who knows the market, tells you the truth and stays with you until the keys change hands.

What you can expect
Four promises we keep.
Honesty
If a price is too high, a building has a levy problem or an offer is weak, you hear it from Fatima first.
Local expertise
Decades of watching Johannesburg’s suburbs means pricing grounded in what homes actually sell for.
Integrity
Fair dealing with buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants alike. A good deal is one both sides can live with.
Personal service
Fatima answers the phone, attends viewings and follows the deal through to transfer. You always know who is handling your move.
