🌿 Meet the Developer | Spotlight on Ivan Pretorius 🌿

Today, we’re delighted to introduce Ivan Pretorius, Founder and CEO of Alley Roads, who plays a pivotal role in shaping the residential vision and built environment that influence places like Palm View Estate.

👔 Who is Ivan Pretorius?
Ivan is a Civil Engineer by profession, with over 25 years of experience in property development, infrastructure, and the built environment. He founded Alley Roads in 2009, a leading black-owned national developer specializing in affordable residential housing and retail / industrial property. Before that, Ivan held senior roles including Chief Director at the Gauteng Department of Public Works, Roads & Transport, and has also worked as an engineering technologist and project foreman. His academic credentials are robust: BTech degrees in Geotechnical and Structural Engineering, plus Certificates (with distinction) in Project Management and Leadership Development.

💡 What excites him about the future?
Ivan is strongly focused on narrowing the housing gap in South Africa — particularly for lower-to-middle income households. He is committed to producing safe, sustainable, and affordable homes that are close to schools, hospitals, markets — growing Alley Roads’ role as a leader in “build-to-rent” and green building developments.

🤝 How he works:
Ivan leads with vision, integrity, and a commitment to quality — balancing innovation (green building, sustainable development) with practical solutions (affordable housing, energy efficiency). He is known for being strategic, results-driven, and deeply rooted in public service values.

🌿 Mandela Day at Palm View Eco Estate – A Legacy in the Making 🌿

This past Sunday, Palm View Eco Estate came alive with joy, purpose, and unity as we celebrated Mandela Day in the most meaningful way — by planting the seeds of a better tomorrow. 🌱

With the incredible effort of the HOA, our beautiful estate came together as one strong community to plant trees, build bonds, and create a family-friendly environment we can all be proud of. It was more than just planting trees — it was about growing roots of connection, care, and shared vision for our future. 💛

A heartfelt thank you to our generous sponsors:
🌳 Alley Roads – 10 Trees
🌳 Louelle Agency – 5 Trees
🌳 Palm View Homeowners – 20 Trees

Your support has made a lasting impact!

The day was fun, vibey, and filled with laughter. Children eagerly helped plant trees, creating special memories with their families. And afterward, neighbours gathered under the tropical sunshine for a delicious braai — a true celebration of community, nature, and new beginnings.

🌴 Welcome to all our new and future residents!
Palm View Eco Estate is more than just a place to live — it’s a place to belong. A place where families grow, friendships flourish, and every resident plays a role in making our estate safe, fun, and filled with life. 💫

Here’s to building not just homes, but a legacy of unity — one tree, one family, one dream at a time. 🌍🌿
