The average house, flat and complex prices in Cape Town’s 20 most affordable suburbs

 ·26 Nov 2017

In a struggling South African property market, Cape Town has been a rare success story with house price growth comfortably outstripping that of other major cities.

The city’s excellent performance has been driven by a range of factors, from the semigration of upcountry buyers, better governance, a booming tourism market and employment prospects in tech, advertising, design and other creative industries.

However the high prices have also had a negative toll on some buyers, and numerous reports have indicated that buyers, particularly first-time buyers, are struggling to get on the property ladder due to increasingly unaffordable property prices.

With this in mind, Private Property looked at its housing data to form a list of the most affordable suburbs in and around the City.
