History:
 

Dalmax Properties was founded by Mr. Max Dales, who was the founding member of a leading property group in KZN and had been in the property market since the1960's.
 
Max first opened the doors to his estate agency at the corner of Crompton and Hill Streets, employing one clerk who typed all documents with only one finger. 

The company later moved to Underwood Road, and as this was the only road into Pinetown, the name Max Dales became familiar and the business began to grow. Max and his team then purchased an office block at 108 Old Main Road, and called it Dalmax House. The company grew bigger and Boland Bank purchased a share in the company, necessitating the change in name from Max Dales & Company to Maxprop (Pty) Ltd.

 
After 10 years as director at Maxprop, Max decided to retire. Before long, however, he started a new company called Dalmax Properties, dealing with Commercial & Industrial properties only. Max's son Brian Dales has since taken over the family business as the Managing Director with Andrew Dunsdon as the Financial Director.
 
Dalmax Properties is now situated at Abrey Eco Park in Kloof and has all the experience of age as well as the enthusiasm of a young sales team.’
