New data released from the TPN Credit Bureau shows how South Africa’s residential rental market is finally on an upward trajectory.
TPN Credit Bureau says that South Africa’s residential rental market is back in positive territory, citing data from its first-quarter 2022 Market Strength Index.
An upward trend in the index’s demand strength is likely to assist landlords in recovering from below inflation escalations, it said. “Despite improved business confidence, slow economic growth, high rates of unemployment and financially constrained households continue to be a challenge in the property sector, slowing down the recovery,” stressed TPN.
While recovery may be slow, Gauteng has seen negative rental escalations mitigated and is back in positive territory.Demand for properties in the Western Cape continues on a positive trajectory in its return to low vacancy levels, last seen in 2016 and 2017.
