The Independent Estate Agency Network of South Africa (IEANSA) was established to promote the growth and development of small to medium real estate businesses nationwide.
IEANSA is a totally independent, self-funding, registered non-profit organization owned, operated and managed by its members. At a meeting in March of 2021 by 12 independent real estate agencies with a collective vision of creating an organized networking opportunity for independent real estate agencies in South Africa, IEANSA, was born.
The organization brings together experienced business mentors and coaches, researchers, policy-makers and practitioners from around the world to share knowledge and expertise in their respective fields through mentorship programs, coaching seminars/workshops, training sessions and certifications.
The IEANSA is a membership-based, non-profit association, bringing a network of service-minded, independent real estate brokers together so that they can collectively deliver solutions and strategies to provide their property buyers and sellers with superior services.
We are a CIPC registered Non-profit Organization (NPO) and We have collectively designed and adopted our own Constitution and a set of Organisational guidelines and procedures which govern our Association. We have a governing Committee comprising of Directors and Committee Chairpersons, which we elect annually, who are charged with the responsibility of managing the business end of our organization.
