Sonstraal Heights - Market Trends

From a Real Estate Agent’s perspective, we have seen a tremendous drop in sales during May 2017 – September 2017. The market picked up quite quickly after October 2017 and we had one of the busiest December /January periods we have seen in years.

Although we still have plenty of buyers and normally enough stock, I noticed that there has been a change in buyers’ behaviour. Today’s buyers are very well informed about the current market values and will not over spend on their purchases. They are looking for the best deal and are able to shop around (because of availability of stock) before making the decision to buy.
