Richard Gray, CEO of Harcourts South Africa, gives insights into the semigration market in South Africa.
Semigration continues to gain pace in South Africa, but there are several things that South Africans should keep in mind when making the move.
“Semigrating is not just about moving from one location to another; it’s about transitioning to a new way of life. The decision can offer numerous benefits, but it’s essential to be prepared,” Richard Gray, CEO of Harcourts South Africa, notes.Before moving, South Africans must research what employment opportunities are in the new region.
“Not all provinces have the same job market dynamics. It’s crucial to research and identify industries and sectors that are thriving in your intended destination,” Gray said.“Take the time to investigate schools in the area, their reputation, curriculum, and extracurricular offerings. A school’s quality can significantly impact a child’s development and well-being,” Gray said.South Africa is a big country, and every province has its own culture and way of life.
“While the differences might be subtle, they can impact one’s daily life. Whether it’s local festivals, languages spoken, or communal activities, understanding these variations can aid in assimilation,” Gray added.The cost of living varies greatly between provinces and should definitely be a consideration.
“It’s not just about property prices. Consider utility costs, transportation, groceries, and entertainment expenses. A comprehensive cost comparison provides a clearer picture of what to expect financially,” said Gray.“Look at historical data, property appreciation rates, and rental yields. This information will offer insights into the potential return on your investment,” Gray concluded.
