SA’s luxury housing rental market recovering
Demand from both local, foreign tenants
Higher-end rentals in the greater Sandton and Johannesburg North areas are also popular among tenants from other African countries.
As the post-pandemic economy continues to open up, the luxury housing rental market is on a recovery path thanks to increased demand from both local and foreign tenants. But this has seen consumers coughing up as much as nearly R300 000 per month for a high-end home in one of the country's priciest suburbs.
Areas such as the Cape Town Atlantic Seaboard, Constantia Upper, Bishopscourt, Sandton, Paarl, Franschhoek and luxury estates in particular are once again achieving monthly rentals of over R100 000 per month, according to rental agents at the Seeff Property Group.
On top of that, the opening up of borders after the Covid-19 pandemic has seen more high-end international tenants heading back to South Africa, often for business purposes.
Along Cape Town's Atlantic Seaboard, Seeff has concluded a R100 000 pm rental in Camps Bay to a family from Sweden, R80 000 pm in Fresnaye to a family from Switzerland, and R70 000 pm in Camps Bay to an American corporate tenant.
In Upper Constantia, a R130 000 pm, three-year lease was paid upfront by a tenant from Ireland. In Sandton R92 700 pm was obtained for a penthouse in the Park Central development in Rosebank.
Higher-end rentals in the greater Sandton and Johannesburg North areas are also popular among tenants from other African countries.
"If you hope to rent in the high-end suburbs of Sandton, along the Atlantic Seaboard, Constantia, Bishopscourt and on luxury lifestyle and golf estates, basic entry-level rentals tend to range upwards of R35 000 to around R85 000 on average with exceptional top-end properties ranging to over R100 000 pm," says Seeff chair Samuel Seeff.
