And some good news: South Africa property outlook for 2014 positive

In 2013, South Africa saw slow but steady recovery in the property market, paving the way for greater growth in the year to come. "The property market growth that we have witnessed in the past 12 months has been underpinned by low interest rates, affordable house prices and increased lender confidence," says Rhys Dyer, ooba CEO.

Well together with the current exchange rate this is a good time to invest into South African property, maybe for holiday or your retirement.

South Africa now ranks No.3 in global house price growth.

Those involved in the South African residential property sector have repeatedly stated that there are good reasons for confidence in this asset class – and this has recently been reinforced by an analysis in the The Economist. Their survey shows that South Africa now ranks number three (after Hong Kong and Brazil) in global house price growth.

Hong Kong’s year-on-year growth since the fourth quarter of 2007 is listed as 24.5 percent, Brazil’s at 12.8 percent and South Africa’s at 11.1 percent.

Commenting on this, Tony Clarke, Managing Director of the Rawson Property Group, said that even though most economists now accept that South Africa’s house price growth of 11.1 percent will drop below 10 percent in the year ahead, it is a satisfactory figure, being about five percent ahead of the current inflation rate – which, said Clarke, will now break the six percent upper bracket barrier in the next few months.

South Africa, added Clarke, is also shown by the analysis to be performing well in relation to such basics as the rent-to-value ratio and the rent-to-income ratio.

According to Quagga Property Brokers director, Len Pears, now is the best time to invest in commercial and industrial properties.

"Now is the best time to invest in commercial and industrial properties."
“People are concerned about the economy, similarly to how it was in 1994, but now is the time to buy as prices are still on the low side, compared with when the economy was in its prime.”
He explains that those who invested in 1994, when many felt uncertain about the future, have enjoyed exceptional growth in their property investments.
“Now is the time to do this again before the property market turns significantly and booms again, and it surely will,” he says.
He notes that they have experienced phenomenal growth in sales in 2012 ranging from investors looking for new stock along with owner occupiers looking for new properties, and this is still the same trend they are seeing.
“We are currently running out of investment stock for our investors – proving the economy is definitely nudging towards an upturn.”

Stats at the weekend show that first time buyer house prices have jumped 14.5% from R598,000 to R685,000. However the amount of bond approvals at 100% fell from 38.5% of all applications to 34.9%.

This means that first buyers need to save substantial deposits and the knock on effect of this is less new entrants into the property market.

Of course for investment buyers the flip side of the coin is more people renting and increasing rental returns. A new development in Stellenbosch has already seen over 50% sales achieved.
