MASTER INVESTOR
PAM GOLDING ON MAIN
Pam Golding Properties was launched in the
challenging year of 1976 with virtually no
capital, no leads, no infrastructure and just
one sales assistant. Infused with Pam’s ethos,
unerring talent for successfully matching
buyers and sellers, graceful style, networking
skills and passion for property, the Pam
Golding brand today remains associated with
the highest levels of professionalism, client
service, ethics, leadership and innovation.
My parents and my brothers. I
had an extremely happy childhood
and growing up in Umtata was
wonderful as people in the Transkei
were a naturally friendly, happy and
caring community and we were
a very close-knit family. We all
participated and loved all aspects
of life – social functions, charity
fundraising for war funds, concerts
and all sports. With my competitive
nature, I competed in most sports
and in particular tennis and hockey
and I loved ballet, was in school
plays, and a member of girl guides.
As a family on holiday, we fished,
hiked, went boating and enjoyed
water skiing and surfing horses – it
was idyllic.
My father was headmaster of
Umtata High School and my
mother always worked but found
the time to be a wonderful mother,
my greatest friend and mentor.
