Meet the Team

We are a small but close-knit working family that strives for excellence and exceptional customer service in all we do. We focus mainly on Community Schemes and residential and commercial property management. Property sales are a small but an important part of the solutions we offer.

The Grahamstown office consists of 8 people who are all involved in property management, managing rentals and community schemes and doing residential, commercial and business sales on demand.

David Tyson

Body Corporate Administrator
I am a Body Corporate Administrator, supporting the day-to-day administration of multiple sectional title schemes. Since joining, I have been working to set up and improve processes across the portfolio, with a focus on bringing more structure and consistency to systems that were in place before my time.

My core responsibilities include managing customer accounts, uploading cashbooks, and coordinating the majority of WeConnectU communications to owners. I also assist with insurance matters, unit transfers, and updating owner details whenever new information is provided to me.

I take a hands-on, problem-solving approach to my work, and continue to work toward improving processes and outcomes across the schemes I support.
