About Ravin Maharaj

Born and raised in the vibrant city of Pietermaritzburg and educated at Clairwood High in Durban, I've always had a passion for business and hospitality. After completing my matric, I pursued a diploma in Purchasing and Business Management at Howard College, where I honed my skills in negotiation and communication.

My professional journey began at Karos Capital Towers Hotel, where I spent two decades immersed in the world of hospitality. Starting as a junior clerk, I climbed the ranks to become the Food and Beverage Manager across a portfolio of 14 hotels. It was during this time that I had the privilege of meeting notable figures like Nelson Mandela, F.W. De Klerk, and various international sports personalities. One of my proudest moments was winning the SAB Hansa pub lunch competition.

Embracing entrepreneurship, I took on the challenge of revitalizing the New Holmes Hotel, transforming it into a thriving establishment within a year. Simultaneously, I managed catering operations for Regal Inn Hotel in Pietermaritzburg, rubbing shoulders with soapie stars, politicians, and more.

The hospitality landscape underwent significant changes, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Forced to close my businesses, I pivoted to online sales and ventured into selling residential internet connections. Despite the challenges, I remained resilient and sought new opportunities.

On March 1, 2024, I embarked on a new chapter with RE/MAX, leveraging my expertise in negotiation, customer service, and market knowledge to help clients navigate the real estate landscape. With a strong foundation in business management and a passion for connecting with people, I am committed to delivering exceptional service and achieving optimal results for my clients.

Outside of real estate, I thrive on adventure, having conquered a 120-meter bungy jump. I'm an avid sports enthusiast, particularly cricket, soccer, and rugby. I enjoy the great outdoors through camping and fishing, and I love entertaining others with magic and bar tricks.

"You Snooze, You Lose" encapsulates my approach to life and business—embrace opportunities, stay proactive, and never settle for mediocrity.
