Secure complex by established developer . Final phase of the devlopment about to complete. This is a great investment for an investor or a young entrant into the property market. Features : Exterior Finish : Masonite Appliances : Oven Range Roof : Concrete Tile Sewer/Water Systems : Public View : Pasture, Panoramic Background Information East London : Location: South Africa's only river port city is situated on the Buffalo river on one of the most attractive stretches of the Eastern Cape coastline. Sweeping white beaches extend for miles - uncrowded and unspoilt. . Several seaside resorts are scattered along the coastline, all within a short distance from East London. Climate : The climate is temperate. History : Several well-preserved examples of 19th century architecture enhance the charm of the city, e.g. the City Hall & Lock Street Goal. Infrastructure : Educational facilities : Sporting Facilities : Water sports are enjoyed all year round. East London has positioned itself as a sportman's mecca, hosting Provincial, National and International sporting events. The wide variety of sporting activities on offer, cater for groups as well as the individual. Commercial Facilities : Buffalo City — made up of East London, Bisho and King William’s Town — is a case in point. The city has a small manufacturing base, dominated by auto manufacturer DaimlerChrysler, to which much of the town serves in a supply capacity. The company manufactures the Mercedes-Benz C class, mostly for export through the city’s port. But Buffalo City is in a tenuous position. Formal private-sector jobs are shrinking: there were fewer jobs in 2004 than there were in 1996. The only growth in formal employment has come from the public sector, which since 1996 has risen steadily. Population growth (the city’s population at the last census was 700000) is close to zero — an indication that people are leaving due to a lack of opportunities. There has been little, if any, improvement to the port or airport since they were built. Not even the boom in coastal property has attracted new investors and there is almost no development on the beachfront. Buffalo City at a crossroads. With little going for it right now, in terms of growth, getting a viable long-term plan in place will determine whether government will leave it to sink or help it to swim. Government, in the office of the Presidency, has developed a national spatial development perspective (NSDP) which will now inform where resources should be allocated. Property Market : East London still offers buyers and investors many worthwhile properties for less than the national average selling price of almost R900 000 . The inner city areas in East London are also affordable for many middle-income buyers - in contrast to the CBDs of Cape Town and Johannesburg - and there is the added attraction of living close to work and all amenities. The best areas to look for when searching for moderately priced homes in the R600 000 to R1m price range, include Amalinda, Cambridge and surrounding suburbs, as well as isolated possibilities in areas such as Southernwood, Quigney, Greenfields and Sunnyridge. Residential property in the Southernwood and Quigney areas is mainly made up of flats & investors can purchase really decent two-bedroom flats from around R350 000. If investors are looking for much cheaper areas within the city of East London, two-bedroom houses can be purchased for between R150 000 and R200 000 in the Mdantsane area. Here most homes are historically not considered as investment properties in the traditional sense - with the majority of the buyers being “previously disadvantaged”. In the Amalinda area, good middle-class homes can be purchased for R800 000 or less. The demand for homes in this area is high, especially among buyers who wish to be close to family and friends in Mdantsane. Things to Do : A variety of theatres, cinemas and a selection of restaurants to sample. East London has something for everyone, whether you're a sporting enthusiast, fisherman, historian, nature lover, or simply in need of a rejuvenating break away from it all. . River mouths, lagoons and gullies provide a paradise for fishermen East London Museum Explore the - home of the Coelacanth and the world's only Dodo egg.

Visit www.inkwenkwezi.co.za to get a taste of the numerous coastal disease free game parks that are attracting tourism from all over the globe. Economic development is at it's all time peak with well managed industrialisation projects like the IDZ ( Industrial Development Zone ) in full swing , and major manufaturers like Daimler Chrysler SA investing Billions in import and export of quality vehicles through the Buffalo Harbour Port. Property prices are rocketing and some areas have recorded 100-200% increases in value over a mere 2-3 years. All indications are that this trend will continue , maybe less vigourously with 20-30% growth P.A. in the stable interest rate environment and demand growing daily for the quality of life in East London the best kept secret in South Africa An unprecedented building boom pushed the value of building plans passed by the Buffalo City Municipality (BCM) in the Eastern Cape last year to over R1 billion for the first time in history, the Dispatch reported on Thursday. Property experts say the boom has been fuelled by new housing and shopping centre developments as well as investment flowing into the East London Industrial Development Zone (IDZ). The total value of plans in 2006 was a touch over R1 billion compared to 2005’s R708 million. Explaining the 41 percent increase over 2005, BCM mayor Zintle Peter said the city was experiencing a period of positive growth not seen in decades. "There are many factors responsible for the building boom, including a stable macro-economic environment and low interest rates, but I am heartened by the people who are now confident to invest in the property market," she said. Some of the big property investments over the last year included seven new companies investing R395 million in the IDZ and a R150 million mini-mall in Gonubie. June saw the highest amount of building plans passed at R187 million, followed by October with R180 million. Border-Kei Chamber of Business executive director Les Holbrook expects this year’s approvals to be "way more" than last year. Holbrook said the property boom was the result of business confidence in the city from local, national and international investors who have realised the city provided a "solid investment return". - Sapa
