A recent report by market intelligence and advisory company Mordor Intelligence provides a glimpse into the state of the changing residential property sector in SA.

The company states that with an estimated 15.6 million South Africans aged 20–34, many first-time buyers are expected to enter the market. It adds: “The purchase of freehold homes by South Africans has been steadily decreasing with buyers opting for sectional title and estate homes instead.”
