“Security is a top priority for
many buyers in our country
and has been one of the
driving factors behind the
growth in popularity of secure
developments,”

“Property continues to be
a good investment, however,
because if one looks at the
real price average of 2013
compared to that of 2003,
there is an increase of 42.6%”

“Building activity growth is
showing flat growth, meaning
that not many newly built
properties are coming on to
the market for sale. This could
signal the start of a steeper
housing price increase in 2014.”

“While we have seen favourable
conditions for buyers over the
last while, we could see the
market shifting towards sellers
in 2014, with the numbers of
property available to buyers
lessening.”
