Johannesburg - Pam Golding Properties is hosting a national and international property exhibition in Sandton from October 13 to 18 2015 in the Checkers Court at Sandton City.
The purpose is to provide prospective property buyers and investors with an opportunity to meet with area specialists from around the country and simultaneously view an entire portfolio of properties in a variety of locations, all at one venue.
“While it is common practice these days for many home buyers to browse the internet to research the market, there is still nothing quite like a face-to-face discussion with those in the know to help provide in-depth knowledge and expert advice regarding the property market and the broad range of properties available. This includes our complete database of some 36 000 properties as well as a specifically selected portfolio showcasing approximately 1 000 properties and prime-located residential developments," said said Dr Andrew Golding, chief executive of the Pam Golding Property group.
“We’ve chosen Gauteng as the venue due to the fact that this province represents a key driver of property buying across the various regions in South Africa as well as internationally. Migration to other provinces is one of the ongoing trends that is seeing buyers from this major economic hub look to acquire property not only locally but in a host of locations around South Africa for a myriad of reasons including a primary residence for relocation – including upgrading or downscaling, leisure or weekend getaways, pure investment, a different lifestyle, student accommodation and retirement.”
Properties on show cover a broad spectrum from vacant land, urban apartments, townhouses and spacious family homes to lifestyle and golf estates, small holdings, country estates, wine farms and exotic game properties. These vary from starter homes below R1m right through to luxury properties at the top end of the market upwards of R20m – including a home in Fresnaye on the Atlantic Seaboard priced at R200m.
Residential developments on display include the Steyn City lifestyle resort in Fourways, the luxury high-rise residential development Park Central in Rosebank, landmark Melrose Arch in Melrose and Copperleaf in Centurion – all in Gauteng, as well as the Val de Vie estate in the Paarl-Franschhoek Valley in the Cape Winelands and the Emanzini Private Reserve and Mahathunzi development in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands.
As South Africans continue to show a sustained appetite for international property, PGP has included three developments in Mauritius.
