Background Information about Centurion : General : The combination of a "country" atmosphere and excellent access to highways leading to Pretoria and Johannesburg continues to attract both homebuyers and property investors to Centurion, transforming it into one of the fastest growing areas in the country. Property Market : The Centurion property market offers a healthy mixture of different priced homes, ranging from basic, entry level units to luxury, top-end family homes. Entry level townhouses are priced from R460 000 and entry level freestanding homes are priced at around R900 000. Mid-level townhouses are priced at around R680 000, while mid-level prices for freestanding homes range between R1m and R1,3m. Upper-level townhouses start at R1m and top-end freestanding homes sell for around R5m. Townhouses especially are in great demand among owner-buyers and investors alike, but supply is still limited and units that do come on to the market usually sell very fast. Duets also sell well at prices starting at R700 000 although lately there has been a measure of buyers' resistance to properties above the R1,5m mark. Top properties in the area carry price tags of more than R5m. On the whole however the property market do represent good value. Generally, vacant land in Centurion is scarce but there are a number of plots available for purchase on the south western boundary which are priced from R450 000. There is still strong demand for residential property across the full spectrum, but especially in the price range between R500 000 and R1,5m. This is supporting prices despite large-scale development in the area in recent years and the recent market slow-down which is said to be discouraging buy-to-let owners. The buyer profile in Centurion is not only made up of family-oriented purchasers. The number of local investors and speculators in the Centurion property market is only further evidence that there is confidence in the value of properties here. Buyers are also attracted by the fact that Centurion offers different areas, each with distinct characteristics - and prices to match. The “town” is also self-contained. It has several private schools as well as good English and Afrikaans medium government schools. Several large complexes, such as the Centurion Mall and the Mall at Reds, cater for shoppers while a large new complex near Irene will open soon. Residents also have access to the local Unitas Hospital. Residential development in Centurion is characterised by low-rise sectional title units that contribute to a country feel, which is in particular demand among people working in stressful city environments. What makes the Centurion property market so unique from other areas is the small town ambience that the area has, even though it still offers all of the urban amenities, attractions and central, halfway location to Pretoria and Johannesburg. Centurion is like a little bit of Platteland in an urban area – everyone knows each other and there is a family-oriented, friendly atmosphere.

house Beautiful house on Game Farm - superb finishes. Empangeni & Richard Bay Background Information : Property Information : Empangeni and Richards Bay is experiencing a severe shortage of residential, commercial and industrial stands and there appears little prospect of the local authority being able to meet demand in the near future. The continual expansion of industries around the deep water port and rise in demand for homes has exceeded the capacity of the local authority and that while plentiful land is available, it has not been zoned or serviced. Current major developments include a new R350-million shopping centre of 30 000 sqm being developed in the Richards Bay CBD with Game as the anchor tenant. Meanwhile, the Super Spar Centre is being extended and a final announcement on the planned R700-million Tata Steels ferrochrome smelter is expected soon. New capacity for residential development is being planned by the municipality, this will only come on stream once infrastructure is in place and is not expected for about two to three years. The road link between Richards Bay and Empangeni, for example, is presently under construction and the upgrade will only be completed in three years' time. There has been a new wave of sectional title developments in Richards Bay as developers have sought to address the chronic under-supply in relation to demand. Sectional title units also sell well in the town because they tend to be more affordable than freestanding properties. The complete drying up of new residential building land in the town. This, is in spite, of developers eager to launch new projects. He believes the local authority, the City of Umhlatuze, has so far neglected the rezoning process to readily make new building land available. Sectional title units start at around R300 000, with top-of-the-range units reaching around R1,2-million, while freehold homes start at around R650 000. However, all spare capacity in terms of land for new sectional title developments has now been taken up and as a result, traditional freehold homes are rapidly being subdivided and converted into duettes. Meanwhile, buy-to-let sales are continuing at a steady pace, despite the fact that the rental market is currently oversupplied and that returns on these investments have fallen. "Investors see the area continuing to expand and rentals showing strong growth in the wake of more industrial and commercial projects. Empangeni Background Information : History : In 1851, the Norwegian Missionary Society established a mission station on the banks of the eMpangeni river. The river was named after the profusion of Mpange trees (Treema guineensis) growing along its banks. The mission was later moved to Eshowe, 61 kilometres north-west. In 1894 a magistracy was established. The Zululand Railway reached the town in January 1903 and linked the area to Durban and Eshowe. The government planted eucalyptus trees in 1905 as part of an experimental timber plantation. The plantation was a success and led to a large scale planting along the coastal belt. In 1906 Empangeni became a village. Rapid expansion began when a sugar mill was erected at Felixton. The establishment of the Empangeni Sugar Mill set the area on the road to rapid development. Empangeni was officially proclaimed as a township on 15 January 1931 and declared a borough on 13 October 1960. General : Empangeni is a town in KwaZulu-Natal Province situated only 15 kilometers from Richards Bay the main harbour town in KwaZulu Natal. Empangeni is approximately 160 kilometres north of Durban, situated in hilly country side of the Uthungulu District, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The City of uMhlathuze was formed by joining the towns of Empangeni and Richards Bay together. Empangeni overlooks a flat coastal plain and has a sub tropical climate with an average climate of 28.4oC in summer and 14.5oC in winter.

building plot, 2825 m² Vacant erf which has been subdivided into 2 properties. The front portion already has plans approved and the water has been connected & a foundation has been laid. The ohter section can also be subdivided into 2 erfs. Empangeni & Richard Bay Background Information : Property Information : Empangeni and Richards Bay is experiencing a severe shortage of residential, commercial and industrial stands and there appears little prospect of the local authority being able to meet demand in the near future. The continual expansion of industries around the deep water port and rise in demand for homes has exceeded the capacity of the local authority and that while plentiful land is available, it has not been zoned or serviced. Current major developments include a new R350-million shopping centre of 30 000 sqm being developed in the Richards Bay CBD with Game as the anchor tenant. Meanwhile, the Super Spar Centre is being extended and a final announcement on the planned R700-million Tata Steels ferrochrome smelter is expected soon. New capacity for residential development is being planned by the municipality, this will only come on stream once infrastructure is in place and is not expected for about two to three years. The road link between Richards Bay and Empangeni, for example, is presently under construction and the upgrade will only be completed in three years' time. There has been a new wave of sectional title developments in Richards Bay as developers have sought to address the chronic under-supply in relation to demand. Sectional title units also sell well in the town because they tend to be more affordable than freestanding properties. The complete drying up of new residential building land in the town. This, is in spite, of developers eager to launch new projects. He believes the local authority, the City of Umhlatuze, has so far neglected the rezoning process to readily make new building land available. Sectional title units start at around R300 000, with top-of-the-range units reaching around R1,2-million, while freehold homes start at around R650 000. However, all spare capacity in terms of land for new sectional title developments has now been taken up and as a result, traditional freehold homes are rapidly being subdivided and converted into duettes. Meanwhile, buy-to-let sales are continuing at a steady pace, despite the fact that the rental market is currently oversupplied and that returns on these investments have fallen. "Investors see the area continuing to expand and rentals showing strong growth in the wake of more industrial and commercial projects. Empangeni Background Information : History : In 1851, the Norwegian Missionary Society established a mission station on the banks of the eMpangeni river. The river was named after the profusion of Mpange trees (Treema guineensis) growing along its banks. The mission was later moved to Eshowe, 61 kilometres north-west. In 1894 a magistracy was established. The Zululand Railway reached the town in January 1903 and linked the area to Durban and Eshowe. The government planted eucalyptus trees in 1905 as part of an experimental timber plantation. The plantation was a success and led to a large scale planting along the coastal belt. In 1906 Empangeni became a village. Rapid expansion began when a sugar mill was erected at Felixton. The establishment of the Empangeni Sugar Mill set the area on the road to rapid development. Empangeni was officially proclaimed as a township on 15 January 1931 and declared a borough on 13 October 1960. General : Empangeni is a town in KwaZulu-Natal Province situated only 15 kilometers from Richards Bay the main harbour town in KwaZulu Natal. Empangeni is approximately 160 kilometres north of Durban, situated in hilly country side of the Uthungulu District, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The City of uMhlathuze was formed by joining the towns of Empangeni and Richards Bay together. Empangeni overlooks a flat coastal plain and has a sub tropical climate with an average climate of 28.4oC in summer and 14.5oC in winter.

Stellenbosch Background Information: Stellenbosch is the second oldest town in South Africa, founded by Simon van der Stel in 1679 and renowned for its Cape Dutch buildings, university and wines, Stellenbosch lies in a fertile valley surrounded by vineyards, orchards and mountains. It is an academic and farming community and one of the best preserved towns in South Africa. Stellenbosch is affectionately known as "Eikestad" - town of oaks. Stellenbosch is situated in the fertile Jonkershoek river valley and boasts a mild Mediterranean climate with rainy winters and hot summers. The Eerste River that flows through the town, has it origin in the nearby Jonkershoek mountains and flows into the Sea at the Strand in False Bay, 20 kilometers away. The Stellenbosch mountains form a link in the chain of mountains along the south coast of the Western Cape, to the southern tip of Africa (Agulhas). The Stellenbosch valley was the first to be settled and cultivated by the Dutch as they moved from Cape Town towards the interior. The areas offers superb scenic views over mountains, vineyards and orhards covered with wild flowers in spring. The magnificent mountains ranges reach heights of 1600 metres, forming a spectacular backdrop to the town. Stellenbosch is a haven for tourists who have time to walk around and savour the atmosphere of this unique town with oak-lined streets and ater furrows. Open-air restaurants and cosy coffee shops line the shady streets and secluded lanes, inviting people to linger and observe the everyday activities of this bustling village. Of the towns founded in the Cape during the period of control by the Dutch East India Company, Stellenbosch is the best preserved. This becomes apparent when walking along Dorp Street, a national monument, which has one of the longest rows of surviving old buildings in South Africa. Dorp Street is a gracious blend of Cape Dutch, Georgian and Victorian architecture. Many of these historic buildings currently house art galleries, restaurants, shops, guest houses and hotels. Talented artists and craftmen find inspiration in this stimulating yet serene environment. The University of Stellenbosch is an intergral part of the history and atmosphere of the town. As the Second oldest university in South Africa it is dedicated to preseving its heritage, while at the same time preparing the leaders of the future. Coetzenburg, the university sports grounds, has nurtured some of South Africa's top athletes and sportsmen and women as well as being the scenic venue for many other events such as the Pavarotti concert and music festivals. Annual Events that take place are: Athletics meetings at Coetzenburg (February and March); University Rag (February); Stellenbosch Festival - street and music festival (September and October); Simon van der Stel Festival (October) and the Food and Wine Festival (October). Thousands of vistors flock to the village to join in the festivities with the locals! The viticulture centre of Southern Africa, Stellenbosh boasts the oldest Wine Route in the country, established in 1971. For a wider appreciation of the area enjoy spectacular views whilst traversing the four passes which make up the fruit route. Starting with the Helshoogte Pass to the Berg river valley, over the Franschoek Pass to the upper Riviersonderend valley, then over the Viljoenspass to Elgin and finally back to Stellenbosch down the Sir Lowry's Pass. Stellenbosch with its beautiful art galleries and interesting shops is also part of the Western Cape Arts and Crafts Route. Stellenbosch Tourism Information is situated at 36 Market Street.

farm, 26 ha With Berg River frontage and surrounded by breathtaking mountains, this 26 ha piece of land is 10 minutes drive from the buzzing tourist attraction of an exclusive private school. The farm is listed on the Berg River irrigation scheme for which 17 ha is available to irrigate the 5 ha Sauvignon Blanc and 2 ha Riesling vineyards, the 6 ha plum, the 2 ha pear and 2 ha lemon orchards. An additional water source is the mountain stream that runs through the farm. Buildings consist of an impressive 3 bedroom homestead with a swimming pool, a 3 bedroom managers house, a 2 bedroom house as well as a 1 bedroom flat. Another free standing bulding is now being used as a part time restaurant (with liquor license) but could be utilised in many ways by the entrepreneur with initiative. A certain pertion (with less agricultural value) of the farm can be regarded as suitable for some sort of development. There are 2 sheds as well as 4 labourer cottages on the property. Apart from the mentioned buildings and ample water, the fantastic location of this farm can not be overlooked and should be regarded as a real strength. Franschhoek Background Information : Franschhoek (meaning “French Corner”) has deep roots running back to the French Huguenots who planted themselves and their vineyards here in the late 17th century. Most of the old farmsteads (a few originals dating back to the 1600s) still bear French names. In 1984 that the Vignerons de Franschhoek was founded - home to around 30 wine farms which include some of South Africa’s most respected names, including Bellingham, Boschendal, Cabriere, Graham Beck, La Motte and L’Ormarins, to name but a few. The first cars arrived in 1910, the first telephone 1911. Electricity came in 1934. In 1938 the Huguenot Memorial was erected to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the arrival of the Huguenots and in 1992 the election of Mr Frank Arendse proclaimed the first non-white mayor in South Africa. However, for a true sense of local history, a visit to the Huguenot Memorial Museum is recommended. The ancestry of many famous South Africans is evident here: FW de Klerk, Beyers Naude, Charlize Theron etc. Property Background Information : Ten years ago it was still pretty much ‘Sleepy Hollow’ territory; a real get-away-from-it-all where you could pick up a cottage at around R200 000 and enjoy a true country lifestyle within a 45 minute drive of Cape Town. Property prices began to escalate about 1996, at the same time that tourism started to take off in South Africa; the rand was at an all-time low against foreign currencies, and Franschhoek had become a sought-after destination for both food and wine. And so the visitors came, “they saw, they ate, drank, fell in love and many bought property”. It’s become a place to live rather than just for a holiday. The quality of property has also improved markedly, in that old houses have been restored, new buildings complement the architectural style of the valley and are strictly monitored by a very active aesthetics committee. In South African “countryside” terms Franschhoek is expensive….. with stands selling from R750 000, and apartments from R780 000. Houses start from R1.85-million for a semi-detached house (two bedrooms with a studio apartment and double garage). In the medium range, you’ll find a home for between R2.5- to R5-million – and the top end is represented by smallholdings starting at R4.5-million.’ Franschhoek property sales totalled R176.2m for the period June 2005 to May 2006, with prices averaging R2.862m – generally 5.5 per cent lower than the average listing price. Properties in the area that had been priced in the region of under R300 000 – 10 years ago – could now easily sell in excess of R10-million. Today there is nothing free-standing available under R2.5-million – regarded as the entry level mark, and for this you could get a two-bedroom house in good condition close to the town centre. From R3.2m to about R4.5m you will have a wider variety of properties to choose from. The upper market varies from R5m upwards and includes what you would call Gentlemen’s Estates. While it is still possible to buy a small two-bedroom apartment (of approximately 60m2) from R750 000, these are few and far between. There are also a number of new developments, but these have largely occurred on the municipal boundaries of the village – former agricultural land that has been re-zoned and sub-divided. Franschhoek has managed to retain its village ambience by enfolding most of the development rather than being engulfed by it: It’s a very difficult balancing act….but the aesthetics committee performs a very valuable function, as does the Franschhoek Trust, in keeping the soul of the village intact. Regarding development in the area, the Stellenbosch municipality is actively focused on protecting the character and appeal of Franschhoek by ring-fencing the town, and agreeing that there will be no further major developments in Franschhoek. Lifetyle : With the demand for homes came the demand for a lifestyle: restaurants, art galleries, specialist retail and coffee bars mushroomed. The sleepy hollow had become hallowed space for residents seeking the best of both worlds. Franschhoek now plays home to a contingent of "swallows" who own property and enjoy only the summer months in the valley. The village is abuzz with many new locals and tourists, and traffic and parking can be a problem. During the past five years there has been a huge influx of foreign buyers – mostly European – but in the last two years, the emphasis has shifted with a lot more South Africans buying; retirees and even businesspeople whom commute on a weekly basis to Johannesburg. They all are looking for a better, more relaxing lifestyle to what the city has to offer and Franschhoek fits the bill. Affluent families are tired of hiding behind electric fences and dealing with traffic that leaves you demented. Franschhoek is not without crime or problems - but it certainly has a lot less compared to what metropolitan areas have to deal with Acting on the need for a private school in the valley, the highly acclaimed Bridge House Independent School was established, opening up the valley to investors who would otherwise not necessarily have considered it. The demographics naturally changed to accommodate the ever-increasing demand. Apart from living among the vineyards, the region is also popular with golfers looking to buy in estates; for example, Pearl Valley Signature Gold Estate and Spa offers a variety of premium property opportunities including golf lodges, houses and residential erven. At Boschemeer Golf and Country Estate only 30ha of a 140ha site have been set aside for low density development. Restaurants : Franschhoek boasts eight of South Africa’s ‘Top 100’ restaurants, which has earned it the title of the gastronomic capital of South Africa. Twenty-five per cent of the five-star chefs in the country live here - including Reuben Riffel who achieved top honours in the 2005 Eat Out Johnnie Walker Restaurant Awards for both Chef of the Year as well as Restaurant of the Year. Further Eat Out Johnnie Walker award winners include Five-Star Chefs Matthew Gordon (Haute Cabrière, The French Connection and Piccata); Margot Janse (seen top left, of Le Quartier Français, The Tasting Room and iCi); and Vanie Padayachee (Grande Provence Estate – The Restaurant); and Lifetime Award achiever Topsi Venter (Topsi & Co).

Features : Interior Features : Fireplace, Ceiling Fan, Carpeted Floors Lot Features : Lawn, Swimming Pool, Trees / Shrubs, Corner Lot, Fenced Yard, Garden Area Exterior Finish : Brick Extra Features : Covered Parking. Background Information : Riebeek Kasteel & Riebeek West (The Riebeek Valley) Introduction : The valley and its twin towns, Riebeek Kasteel and Riebeek West, lie an hour northeast of Cape Town. The Riebeek Valley has to be one of the most picturesque spots in the Swartland. As Cape Town traffic has faded, you leave the N7 at Malmesbury. The Kasteelberg rises before you like a stone fortress. Drive over Bothmanskloof Pass, and there it is... Lifestyle : The valley became known for its eccentric artists, alternative lifestylers and genial locals. While village gossip and the ravaging summer heat are downsides, the balance of the year is great. It’s so beautiful, there’s very little crime, and the community spirit is excellent. Riebeek Kasteel is the more elegant town, with a Eurocentric square surrounded by shops and restaurants. Yet Riebeek West has its own draw cards – large Victorian houses, and more peace and quiet. The Valley has a collection of restaurants, coffee-shops and bars which struggle to exist, and it still has the commercial disadvantage of being “on a back road”. No real commercial attractions exists and the Valley certainly do not have a population to support the hostelries that began to spring up. For three centuries, the valley was the preserve of Afrikaans farmers. Fifteen years ago, things changed. The majority of the properties sold are not as holiday homes, but to people want to live in the Valley. Buyers are drawn by the scenic beauty, good schools, and the proximity to Cape Town, Stellenbosch, Paarl and Tygervalley. With the property boom and the olive festival has come a different type of settler. ‘It is no longer only the “artistic types” or retirees, but now includes the mainstream people & even more younger people who have made money and don’t need to be in the city. There are no real opportunities for employment in the Riebeek Valley, so you have to be self-sufficient – work from home, commute, or have a private income. As more companies outsource and employ less, people may as well live in a beautiful place and do business with a computer. Demograpics : 88% of the population speak Afrikaans while only 2.5% speak English. 78% of the population of the Riebeek Valley is coloured, 18% white and 4% black. History : The solitary mountain was ‘discovered’ in 1661 during an expedition into the hinterland led by Corporal Pieter Cruythoff, and named ‘Riebeeck’s Kasteel’ in honour of the governor and his Cape castle. Later, Willem van der Stel offered land in the area to colonists, and the farms Allesverloren and Kloovenberg were established. Among the first farmers were Huguenots, who planted vineyards. Artisans including wagon makers joined the farming community in Riebeek Kasteel, while retired farmers settled in grander houses four kilometres away in Riebeek West. Property Market : The attraction of cheap property is no longer to be found as properties are as expensive as any in the better suburbs of Cape Town, and there is still very little infrastructure. 800m²-900m2 plots sell for R400 000; Entry-level houses start at just under R1-million The majority of properties sell between R1m- to R2m; Top-end properties - over R4m. Popularity peaked in 2004 . Property in Riebeek Kasteel is the most expensive in the Swartland district. Capital growth over the last year increased only 4% while cheaper areas were catching up fast (Malmesbury 11%, Darling 47%, & Porterville with a 37% capital growth). In Riebeek West (15.23%), the average price of property sold has risen from R557 750 to R680 351 over two years. A handful of upmarket developments are taking root in the valley. Average sale prices in the Swartland during the past year: Malmesbury (R623 000), Moorreesburg (R477 000), Riebeek West (R680 000), Riebeek Kasteel (R735 000), Porterville (R467 000), Darling (R618 000), Hopefield (R412 000), Citrusdal (R406 000), Clanwilliam (R530 000) and Piketberg (R427 000).

building plot, 1340 m² Very large vacant erf with sea views in this sought after coastal town - at a very reasonable price. Background Information About Betty's Bay : This jewel of the Fynbos coast is only 80 kilometres from Cape Town International Airport on the magnificent Clarence Drive from Gordon's Bay. International travellers agree that this drive is more spectacular than Big Sur in the USA. Magnificent white beaches, fresh water lakes and coastal mountains give this village a unique character. The peacefulness of the Betty's Bay, the large open spaces and the clean Atlantic Ocean draws people from all walks of life. Hiking, mountain biking, surfing, swimming, fishing and just relaxing in the sun, are the main activities. So, if you want to escape the madness of the cities, this is the place to refresh your soul; the residents call it BBT: Betty's Bay Therapy! Betty's Bay is situated along the scenic Clarence Drive Route. Formerly, a whaling station, is now home to the beautiful Harold Porter National Botanical Gardens, situated within the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve, the first and only Biosphere in South Africa to be proclaimed by United Nations' Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). The Betty's Bay area is not only renowned for its magnificent floral kingdom, but it's also home to one of only three breeding colonies on the mainland in South Africa. The Jackass Penguin Colony at Stony Point can be viewed from a viewing platform and the penguins are best seen in the late afternoon when they return from their day's fishing. An interesting fact is the Speniscus demersus, (African Penguin) is one of 18 species worldwide, and the only penguin specie that breeds around African coasts. In Betty's Bay at Stony Point, the remains of the Old Whaling station, which was in operation from 1912 to 1930, can still be seen. In 1976 South Africa signed the treaty to ban whaling and the big mammals are making a come back. Each year, Southern Right and Humpback whales migrate into our coastal waters to calve and nurse their young. These gentle giants provide unsurpassed whale watching opportunities between May and December. Stony Point is known to be a local and tourist hotspot for land-based whale watching. The Arabella (top ten course in SA) & Kleinmond Golf Courses are 20 & 10 minutes drive away. Betty's Bay, nestled between mountain & ocean, is definitely a worthwhile holiday destination and a great place to get away from it all.

terraced house, 280 m² A neat and cozy townhouse with a huge loft! 2 Bedrooms, 1 bathroom. Building Size: 120sqm Stand size: +-280 Open plan kitchen and lounge. 2 carports. Security estate. Spacious Kitchen Background Information Brits Property Market : Brits is since 2006 one of South Africa’s fastest growing towns, mainly due to the mines expanding and its workers needing to purchase a residential property or properties, stands, plots, farms, game farms or various investment properties. While there are buyers aplenty, properties are scarce. This has led to selling prices vaulting up to the point where they are now in line with Absa’s national average of around R900 000. Freestanding properties with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a swimming pool and double garage on 1000sqm in the suburbs of Voeltjiedorp and Boomdorp are now selling for R950 000. At the top end of the market, properties in the Brits area are being bought for as much as R2,5m, predominantly by company directors moving into the area due to its industrial and mining activities. In the older suburb of Central Brits, freestanding houses on 1500sqm have become popular with developers who are demolishing them to make way for blocks of flats. Two years ago, these were entry-level properties that sold for between R500 000 and R700 000. They are now selling for upwards of R750 000 and stock is in short supply Meanwhile, owners of large stands have cottoned on to the area’s widespread demand for accommodation and are building second dwellings on their properties to let. The rental market is booming to the point where they cannot accommodate demand. Currently, the average rental for a standard three bedroom home - most sought after by workers in the mining industry - is R3 800 a month. Future of Property Market : Housing trends in future will reflect a "tale of 2 plattelands", with mineral rich platteland areas and those nearer to the large metros fairing far better than the far-flung towns. As the large metros grow, some of the platteland areas will gradually be partly or fully "absorbed" by the metros. Areas northwest of Pretoria / Tshwane, such as Brits and Hartebeespoort Dam may be good examples. Platteland towns such as Brits which is nearer to the metros have got a lot going for them in future, being able to capitalise on economic activity flowing out from the metros. As they "burst at the seams", cashing in on some urban commuters, as well as the growing metro "getaway" market. The Rustenberg / Brits is benefiting from a commodities boom (especially Platinum), and Eskom is expanding electricity generation capacity around it. As Gauteng runs out of space, and as the existing space becomes more pricey, so new industrial and commercial activity will look for “new places to happen”, which will benefit Brits. General : Brits is a fertile, citrus-producing area irrigated by the waters of the Hartebeespoort Dam. The area is very safe with a good infrastructure including good schools, medical facilities and shopping and entertainment. Improved access to Pretoria, along with the expansion of its mining and industrial sectors, has transformed Brits from a sleepy little town into a residential, investment and holiday destination of choice. Within a radius of 50km, holidaymakers are spoilt for top destination choices, ranging from bushveld game lodges to award-winning resorts. Brits is not only an important agricultural irrigation area, it also has an adjacent industrial growth point, GaRankuwa. However, it’s the area’s ever-expanding mining activities that remain the major draw card for buyers. The biggest platinum mine in the world, Barplats Crocodile River Mine, is situated on the outskirts of the town. There is also the Brits-based Hernic Ferrochrome smelter, which happens to be the world’s fourth-largest ferrochrome producer. 94% of South Africa's platinum comes from the Rustenburg and Brits districts, which together produce more platinum than any other single area in the world. In addition, there is a large vanadium mine in the district. Commuting to work from one province to another every day might sound like a lot of driving, but Brits residents who work in Pretoria are spending far less time on the road than many people who both live and work in Gauteng. Since the construction of the Platinum Highway, it takes 35 minutes to travel from the North West province to Pretoria East. It’s also a relatively quick journey to Pretoria’s industrial suburb of Rosslyn, taking on average just 25 minutes. This, along with Brits’ proximity to some of the country’s most scenic bushveld, has become a draw card for a growing number of end-user and holiday-home buyers as well as a sizeable following of investors. History : Founded in 1924 on the farm Roode Kopjes, it was named after the owner Gert Brits. The First Boer War armistice treaty was signed in 1864 beneath a karee tree just to the south of Brits. A speech by General Hertzog in 1912 at the nearby De Wildt railway station led to the formation of the National Party. Climate : Temperatures in Brits range from 17º to 31º C (62º to 88º F) in the summer and from 3º to 21º C (37º to 70º F) in the winter. Annual rainfall measured on properties in Brits totals about 360mm (approx 14in), with almost all of it falling during the summer months, between October and April. Location : Location is one of Brits greatest natural advantages, especially for its farms and game farms properties as well as new developments offering stands for sale. Brits is located close to the Magaliesberg mountain range, which extends in the northeast about 130km (about 80 miles) from Pretoria to Rustenburg. Brits is also en route to the well known Pilanesberg Game reserve, located in the crater of an extinct volcano that features some of South Africa’s most unique holiday properties. Away from the hustle and bustle of city life, Brits offers an escape route to the real Africa.

The Pecanwood golf estate next to Hartebeespoort Dam is a very high-end development that boasts a Jack Nicklaus signature course. Water sports predominate due to the Hartbeespoort Dam, which offers great boating and yachting as well as canoeing, windsurfing and swimming. Attractions : Atractions include the De Wildt Cheetah Research Centre (specializes in breeding and studying cheetah, king cheetah, brown hyena, suni, blue duiker and wild dogs), Granite Works (the larges diamond saws in the world are used to cut the blocks), Vaalkop Nature Reserve, Le Croc Tours, Rainbow Cultural Village, Margaret Roberts Herbal Centre, Arendsnes Sports Academy and Adventure centre.

South Africa's North West Province is strategically located between Botswana in the west and the economic powerhouse and industrial heartland of Gauteng in the east. The province offers vast mineral resources, a sophisticated tourist industry and agricultural abundance. The province is home to bases for a number of international companies such as BMW, Samsung, Tiger Wheels, Shanghai Video and Audio, Lear Corporation, Kromberg and Schubert, Nestle, HJ Heinz, Hong Kong's Universal Enamelware, Firestone Tyres and Robert Bosch, to name a few. For property In the northern areas, the city of Rustenburg represents the major industrial and residential centre of the North West Province, boasting well developed industrial and mining infrastructures as well as world famous tourist resorts. In the densely populated far eastern areas you will find property in Mabopane, Brits, Ga-Rankuwa and Temba. These towns are residential, agricultural and industrial centres and the economy of the area is closely linked to that of neighbouring Gauteng. The North West Province offers a year round, sunny temperate climate with hot summers and mild winters. This is a summer-rainfall region and the weather is usually dry with a short rainy season from December to March. The hottest months are usually February and March and the coldest, July and August.

house Mossel Bay Background Information : Location : Mossel Bay is situated along the Garden Route between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth ± 400km from Cape Town and ± 400km from Port Elizabeth. History : Mossel Bay cultural history dates back to approximately 350 000 years. Bartholomeu Dias anchored in the Bay of St Blaize in 1488. The town exported ostrich feathers, wool and ochre. The Dutch navigator Paulus van Caerden renamed the town Mossel Bay due to the abundance of mussels. The town boast many museums and a life size replica of Bartholomeu Diaz's Caravel ship, that he sailed into Mossel Bay and can be seen at the Diaz Museum. Climate : Mossel Bay is a bustling holiday resort in summer and an ideal retreat in winter - being listed in the Guinness Book of Records as having the second most temperate climate next to Hawaii. The sea temperature is a comfortable 20 to 24 degrees Celsius during the summer months and 13 to 14 degrees in winter. Hartenbos has the longest beach, approximately 5km with two safe swimming areas. Infrastructure : . Mossel Bay is the fastest growing town along the Garden route with a population of ± 70 000. There are two provincial hospitals as well as Bayview private hospital with excellent care facilities. The Mossel Bay harbour is a quiet but active fishing harbour that has been thrown a lifeline with the emerging PETROSA oil industry (Mossgas), which began in the late 1980s. The harbour has two offshore mooring buoys inside port limits, of which one is a marine tanker terminal single point mooring buoy used by feeder vessels from Durban and Cape Town. Commercial Facilities : Mossel Bay also has numerous shopping centre's, restaurants and accommodation. The town has a thriving business center. Educational Facilities : Schools : Milkwood Primary tel: +27 (0) 44 691 1858 Laerskool Hartenbos tel: +27 (0) 44 695 1515 Laerskool Park tel +27 (0) 44 691 1020 Point High School tel +27 (0) 44 691 2247 Cape St Blaize (Private School) +27 (0) 44 693 3488 Property Market : Property prices in Santos, a suburb in Mossel Bay, have risen to take their place among the highest in the country, with bachelor flats tipping the R1 million mark and family homes costing upwards of R2 million. Vacant land is commanding premium prices, with a sea-front stand in the upmarket suburb of Bayview recently selling for more than R5 million. The present wave of new residential development is however ensuring that not only the well-heeled are able to enjoy living within easy access of the sea, spectacular views and an enviably low crime rate. While many new developments undoubtedly command hefty price tags, some developers have not lost sight of the affordability limitations of retirees and investors, who tend to shop in the R800 000 price range. New developments (mainly security estates and apartments) in Diaz Beach is coming on to the market from R795 000 to R3,5m. Although initial sales of these properties were rapid, re-sales have slowed as a result of buyers having an abundance of choice. Movement in the re-sale sector is being driven by quality of building work, finishes and the location of the development. The economy of the Mossel Bay area is with the exception of Mossgas, largely driven by tourism. The whole area’s commerce, including real estate, is linked to the seasonal influx of holiday visitors. The property market is therefore much busier during the summer months, although the ratio of winter buying, especially among overseas holiday makers, has picked up steadily in the last 24 months. Although property market activity in the Mossel Bay area is according to local estate agents still “healthy”, sales volumes have nevertheless shown a slight decline from the start of the 2007 due to buyers resisting “exorbitant prices”. The over-riding feeling among buyers, many of whom come from inland, is that properties are overpriced when they consider what they are getting for their money. The result is that these properties are remaining unsold for months. Best value for money is to be found in the area between hilly Hartenbos Heuwels and Hartenbos proper, which overlooks the Hartenbos River mouth, the mountains and the ocean. Jut below Hartenbos Heuwels, buyers – who tend to be holiday home purchasers and investors - can still find townhouses from R800 000, flats from R700 000 and houses or duettes from R1 15m. Best rand-for-rand value is currently available in Rheebok, Fraaiuitsig and Danabaai.
