It is fully walled. 3 BEDROOMS 2 BATHROOMS OFFICE AREA TV ROOM LOUNGE DINING ROOM ELO LAUNDRY POOL BRAAI AREA IRRIGATION Background Information Kimberley Although Kimberley remains heavily mining dependant, its local economy is increasingly diversifying. The Northern Cape generally is doing well on the strength of mining and agriculture and, to a lesser extent, tourism and this is benefiting all sectors of the regional economy. Different market segments are performing differently in Kimberley, with most of the action being below the R400 000 mark, but there is still good demand and reasonable volumes up to R850 000. Life is also being injected into the market by new developments in Hillcrest, Minerva Gardens and Royaldene, but the town layout does not lend itself to easy expansion and most types of stock are in short supply. The new Kimberley Mall on the south side has major retailers as anchor tenants. Also a new cement plant is planned for Postmasburg and Mittal Steel is expanding output at the Sishen iron ore mine which exports worldwide via Saldanha Bay on the Western Cape coast, all of which is expected to have positive spinoffs for local property. Affordability rather than location is dictating where first-time home buyers and investors purchase residential properties in Kimberly, on the back of five years of dramatic house price growth. Rising commercial activity in Kimberly has been partly responsible for the escalation in entry-level house prices at around R500 000. The city’s growing economy has also pushed up prices at the top end of the market, where it is no longer uncommon to find homes with price tags of R3 million and more. Kimberly’s rapid transition into a major commercial hub in the province in recent years has also seen demand for business premises escalate. This has impacted on former residential suburbs and stock levels since homes are now rapidly being converted into offices as demand for rental space outstrips supply. Among the key economic drivers of the city are an upswing in tourist volumes, a R50 million project by mining conglomerate De Beer’s to upgrade the “Big Hole” as a tourist attraction, along with the construction of a R44 million Protea Hotel adjacent to it, and a R64 million expansion of the Diamond Pavilion Shopping Complex. Some of the city’s valued land is also being utilised to build a R662 million medium security facility, all of which have undermined the city’s stocks of vacant land. In sought-after areas particularly, there are simply no vacant stands for development available any longer. As a result, former “grey areas” are no longer being shunned but are growing in status and popularity by those with limited spending power. Buyers with R500 000 to spend will qualify for a small, old-style home with wooden floors and pressed ceilings on a stand of up to 1000 sqm. These homes, which generally require renovation, tend to be found in suburbs such as Kimberley North, De Beers and West End. Those with higher affordability tend to head for the Memorial Road area, and in particular the streets of Carrington Way and Milner Street, which are within walking distance of the private and popular Christian Brothers College. To purchase an immaculate, original Victorian house on a stand of around 2 000 sqm buyers can expect to pay around R3 million. These prices were unheard of a few years ago, but are now well within reach - and being paid - by executives from the diamond and other industries. While top-end stock is relatively easy to come by, Kimberly is in serious need of sectional title developments and flats, owing to the suppressed affordability levels of first-time, middle market and investor buyers. Property in Kimberly is a superb investment but investors must realise their bond repayments are unlikely to be covered by rental incomes owing to ongoing property price growth which has outstripped the rental market. They are unlikely more than R3 000 a month for a two bedroom flat. Capitalising on the huge demand for residential rentals, Kimberly has seen a rapid increase in the number of home owners turning their garages and other outbuildings into bachelor pads. The rentals they are receiving are being used in many instances to supplement their bond repayments. Most of these tenants tend to be single people unable to afford to buy their own homes.

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.

A truly exceptional property and lifestyle - only 10min from George!

Features: Main House size: 500 m² 5 Bedroom(s) 3 Garage(s) Land size: 84 Hectares Improvements: Labourer Cottages: 3 Arable Land: 3 Ha Natural Grazing: 3 Ha Eskom Power: Yes Distance To Tar Road: 0 Km Distance To Airport: 5 Km Background Information George George is rapidly being transformed from a sleepy Garden Route town into a relocation and retirement option for up-country folk attracted by the Garden Route landscape and a small town lifestyle with big town infrastructure. George, already home to 160 000 residents, is likely to see its population swell by 6 000 a year, which is underpinning rising demand for affordable housing in the area. There is a constant flow of new buyers looking for property in the area and this has been stimulated by improvements to the N2 road linking Cape Town and the Garden Route. New lifestyle estates are being constructed and marketed throughout the country and general improvements in infrastructure and amenities are underway. The demand for affordable property is coming predominantly from local residents whose affordability levels are pitched from R400 000 to R800 000. George has also experience strong commercial expansion as of late. The new R400-million, 125-stored Garden Route Mall in George is yet another feather in the development cap of this booming area where increasing numbers of South African’s are relocating. This growth is manifesting in excellent take-up of space in both office blocks and houses that are fast being converted from residential to commercial zoning. Despite relatively high rentals of as much as R50/m2, there is little untenanted space in the area, which is also supporting good growth in its industrial and retail sectors. The award winning George airport, the only airport on the Garden Route suited to big planes, experienced a big increase in airport traffic over the past few years. It has added to the area’s accessibility and affordable flights from Cape Town and Gauteng are spurring the influx. George is an “all-season town” unlike Knysna and Plettenberg Bay, making it an ideal choice for people who are eager to settle down on the Garden Route. George offers an array of amenities including restaurants, cinemas and some of the best schools in the province. The rapid growth of George’s capital budget, from R13,6 million in 1986/87 to R229, 6 million for the 2006/7 period, supports the town’s claim to fame as not only a residential and holiday destination of choice but also as one of the Western Cape’s most significant economic growth points. The town’s well-balanced economy, which spans a wide range of sectors, including agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, trade, business and financial services, has ensured steady urban growth. Accordingly aware of the need to support its existing central infrastructure as well as its urban progress, the department of Planning and Development has allocated R2 million of its R30 million-plus capital budget for the 2006/2007 period for upgrading and maintaining the CBD. The balance will be spent on housing projects and the development of economically viable sites. Surrounded by the Outeniqua Mountains and the sea, the region flaunts its natural beauty. Buyers have also commented on the abundance of water relative to other areas in the Western Cape as a draw card. This has elevated it into the league of one of a few dozen “secondary towns” in South Africa, comparable with Paarl and Worcester in the Western Cape & Port Shepstone in KwaZulu-Natal. George represents a sustainable property market. “Real” residents are buying and it is not a destination attractive to aggressive speculators. In the long term this will result in a smoother capital growth trend. The trend of people relocating to the Garden Route from the metropolitan areas of Gauteng, Cape Town and Durban is in its infancy. The region is fast being transformed from a holiday destination into a sought after residential area. Although most of the investment along the Garden Route is local, new security estates have made “lock-up and go” properties more accessible and many foreigners are taking advantage of these opportunities.

The estate will have its own tennis courts and driving range. Boating, fishing, water skiing, surfing, mountain biking and hiking are all enjoyed within the surrounding areas. The Garden Route is renowned throughout the world for its immense natural beauty. Winding along the edge of the warm Indian Ocean, it encompasses all of nature's wonders – from huge mountain ranges to small lakes and the country's largest remaining indigenous forest, the Tsitsikamma, which is home to a kaleidoscope of flora and fauna and a multitude of rare bird species. A major attraction in the Garden Route area is the Outeniqua Choo Tjoe, the historic steam train which travels between George and the town of Knysna Background Information George : George is rapidly being transformed from a sleepy Garden Route town into a relocation and retirement option for up-country folk attracted by the Garden Route landscape and a small town lifestyle with big town infrastructure.

house, 817 m² Modestly priced house in central area of the Overberg town of Swellendam. Neat 3 bedroom, single bathroom house with corrugated ion roof, wooden windows and tile and wooden floor covering on a 817 square meter plot. The house has open plan sitting and dinning room and the kitchen has all amenities with well fitted wooden cupboards. The main bedroom has neat built in cupboards and lovely wooden floors. The garden area is smallish and should be easy to keep in order. The house is compact and convenient and the property is walking distance from the nearest Super market and the lower end of the business area of town. Pensioners or young families don’t miss out on this excellent opportunity to see this well priced home which is really priced to sell. The price R795,000 Swellendam Background Information : Nestling at the foot of the picturesque Langeberg Mountains, Swellendam has much to offer people who have an interest in history, nature and outdoor activities. It is situated on the N2, approximately 240 km from both Cape Town and George. In addition to serving its local and surrounding community, Swellendam glories in its past by continuing to offer travellers the services they require for rest and relaxation on their travels. Property : Swellendam, the third oldest town in SA, draws many buyers in their fifties who are looking for a quieter, country lifestyle. Historic homes in the Cape Dutch and Victorian styles add great charm to the town. Strong demand from lifestyle buyers has pushed property prices beyond the reach of many local buyers. Although the new National Credit Act has put a slight damper on sales, demand from lifestyle buyers is still strong. The real need is now in the affordable market and there is great scope for developers who can bring units to the market at less than R600 000. Developers were quick to act on the demand for lifestyle units and are buying large stands, sub-dividing them and building full-title units with security features. These units sell fast among buyers from Gauteng and Cape Town and demand is pushing up prices. For instance, a two-bedroom unit of about 130sqm that sold for R650 000 a mere 16 months ago is now valued at more than R800 000. Most sales are taking place in the R800 000 to R1,3m range. Such prices are out of reach for many locals who are thus forced to rent accommodation. The new Act has further dimmed their hopes of entering the market and although rentals are low to suit their budgets, cheaper units would also create opportunities for investors who are prepared to wait for value growth. There are a big need for sectional title units in the market. All property in Swellendam is currently full title and sectional title developments could lower unit costs. History : The first known sketch of Swellendam was of the Drostdy, by Johannes Schumacher in 1776, when he accompanied the son of Governor Swellengrebel to the town. Swellendam has been an important travel centre for centuries. Early travellers and explorers who visited the Cape in the 1500's traded with the Khoikhoi people who lived on these shores. When the Dutch East India Company established a refreshment centre at the Cape in 1652, trade continued inland as far as Swellendam. In 1743 Swellendam was declared a magisterial district, the third oldest in South Africa. A landdrost was appointed and a Drostdy and other buildings were erected. The district was named after Governor Hendrik Swellengrebel and his wife, Ten Damme. In time, a village was established opposite the Drostdy, across the Koornlands River, where artisans, including numerous wainwrights, and traders settled. To travellers and explorers, the service of these village folk were indispensable, as Swellendam was the last outpost of civilization on the eastern frontier. By the middle of the 19th century, the eastern districts had been colonized by British settlers and Swellendam was a thriving metropolis. The town served as a useful refreshment station on the long, slow journey up the coast. Outdoor Activities : All the usual sporting facilities are available and visitors are welcome to join the members at the various clubs. In addition, horse-riding, canoeing and other water sports can be arranged. There are also mountain bike trails in the area and bikes are available for hire. Hermitage Liquor Farm Swellendam is the largest Youngberry growing area in the country and a farm just 3km out of town may be visited for liqueur tasting. Other Youngberry products are also for sale. Call Kosie or Natalie van Zyl at Tel +27-291-43132 Artists Several well-known artists have settled in Swellendam and their studios may be visited.

Background Information about Centurion : Introduction : 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 & including between 20 to 30 suburbs. Centurion’s boundaries are a bit unclear but loosely it extends from Midrand in the south to (and including) Valhalla in the north and extends from (and including) Hennopsrivier in the west to the R21 (and to the OR Tambo International Airport) in the east. Centurion has come a long way since the days of the Erasmus family to whom the founding of this sprawling suburb can be traced. The Erasmus family arrived and settled in the area in 1841. Indeed, Erasmia, Elardus Park, Zwartkop and Doornkloof can all credit their titles to these landowners and founding farms. Centurion was designed and planned for people to live in. The city offers a total of 40 schools for children of all ages and there are no less than six universities within 25 minutes from the city centre. An abundance of sports and recreational facilities include cricket, rugby, tennis, canoeing, karate, judo and road running. Supersport Park is the home of the Northern Titan's Cricket Team. The central business district is built around a man-made lake with its well-known musical fountain. Apart from Centurion's ideal geographic location, the city also offers an outstanding transport infrastructure. Three of the country's major highways cut through the municipal area, namely the Johannesburg-Pretoria, Krugersdorp-Pietersburg and Pretoria-Johannesburg Airport highways and it is a mere twenty minutes to the airport. Gateway is part of the 635 Ha of land the city council has earmarked for light industrial development while Highveld Technopark, situated on the southern verge of the city centre, is devoted exclusively to high technology interests. Centurion has an excellent infrastructure, modern amenities and wide open spaces; in fact all anyone could possibly want from a town or city. 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. The most exclusive homes are in Cornwall Hill where properties are a few hectares in size and start at about the R7-million mark. 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. It is clear that growth for 2007 has slowed – as in the rest of the South African property market. However, demand for entry level homes and townhouses continues to remain strong as does the rental sector. There is still a large demand for properties that are priced between R500 000 and R1,5 million, which is in line with property trends across the country. Townhouses below R700 000 are also selling well. For example, a townhouse in Rooihuiskraal North sold for R580 000 in April 2006. The same residence sold for R680 000 this year. The underlying strength of the market is also evident in that new mixed-use developments such as Eldo Meadows, Raslouw Manor, Goldengate and Celtic Manor are attracting buyers in all price ranges. New multi-function shopping centres like Mall@Reds, Southdowns and numerous others have seemingly also appeared overnight, which is indicative of a healthy market. 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. The biggest challenge facing the area is traffic congestion. There is talk of tolling Ben Schoeman, as well as plans afoot to link a new highway to run west between Johannesburg and Pretoria. The advent of the Gautrain will also help boost Centurion property prices by providing hassle free transport between Pretoria and Johannesburg - making living in Centurion a particularly attractive prospect. The government has also earmarked Centurion for a R13,4 billion convention and entertainment centre designed in the shape of Africa. Due for completion in 2008, the complex has already begun to boost property prices in the area. Even with the recent slight drop in growth, Centurion is by no means to be sidestepped. Like all towns, Centurion is simply experiencing a quieter growth period and it remains a good area in which to invest.

The people who are hurting today are investors who invested for capital gain, hoping that their property prices would increase” - Robert Kyosaki (2009). http://www.arkadia.com/ltas-t268297/
