Happy Friday, Property Peeps!


With the 2024 South African elections done the big wait is for the election results and early results show that the governing ANC has already lost a lot of ground both regionally and nationally.


The South African Reserve Bank (SARB) announced that interest rates will once again remain unchanged, maintaining the prime lending rate at 11.75%. This decision has been met with surprising equanimity by property experts who, until recently, were predicting the start of a long-awaited interest rate cut cycle.
