Pretoria remains one of the most accessible South African cities for buyers across all price bands because it offers a wide selection of property types, including security complexes and estates. In addition, it boasts highly desirable leisure and lifestyle options, outstanding medical facilities, excellent schools, and first-class tertiary education, including the University of Pretoria, the University of South Africa, and the Tshwane University of Technology.

There are a number of costs to factor in when selling a property – many of which are payable upfront before transfer can occur. To avoid being caught short, sellers are advised to have adequate savings in place before placing their home on the market.

To the dismay of many South Africans, the MPC might be poised to deliver yet another interest rate hike at the upcoming meeting in May.
