THE MOST SOUGHT-AFTER PROPERTY MARKETS IN SA
If you’ve always dreamt of a house on the beach, this article is just for you. We’ve rounded up a list of the hottest property markets in SA.
In an interview with Business Insider, Richard Gray, CEO of Harcourts South Africa, explained that specific property markets in SA are gaining popularity as there is a “strong demand for properties in suburbs that offer a mix of lifestyle benefits, robust infrastructure, and promising growth indicators.”
According to Gray, some of the most sought-after properties are in the coastal suburbs of Clifton and Camps Bay in Cape Town, Rosebank and Sandown in Johannesburg, and the Garden Route’s Knysna and Plettenberg Bay.
But these properties do, however, come with a rather hefty price tag.
Here’s a look at what type of property you can get your hands on in these areas:
