About Us
Peter Pretorius
I was born in Johannesburg, South Africa and completed my education there.
During the first 15 years of my career, I was extensively involved in computer programming, computer systems analysis and systems design. However, I've always had a passion for flying and could somehow not avoid learning to fly and buying my first aircraft very early in my young adult life.
I naturally became more and more involved in aviation to the point where I became a flying instructor with my own flying school. In ten years I trained more than 400 pilots. The buying and selling of aircraft became a very prominent facet of my business until the time came to sell the business for our move to Australia.
I have been selling real estate in Moreton Bay Region for more than 10 years now and throughout this time sold millions of dollars of real estate.
Now, what you haven't been told up to now is that I am a paraplegic real estate agent. I contracted Polio as a small child at 1 year and 7 months. I then lost my leg due gangrene at the age of 8 years. I nevertheless completed my school career with success and was awarded the Archimedes Prize for excellence in Science and Maths in senior school. I also became the first paraplegic flight instructor as far as I know. I have now flown for more than 25 years and still loving it. I fly my aeroplane at Caboolture Airfield at least once a week and dare you to ask me for a flight over Moreton Bay....I might even say yes.
The one thing I did learn thru all my life is that we can really achieve anything that we set our mind to............you, me, any one and all of us!
The same passion I have for flying is the same passion that makes me enjoy selling real estate. I do it because I love it !!
