Category News
Cape Town has consistently outperformed other provinces in the commercial property market and looks set to continue to do so. The defining factor of Cape Town's prevalent real estate market is that the city serves as a hub for large international and local businesses. The economy is on a positive incline and there is continued interest in innovation in commercial real estate. Aska Property Group is leading the way in exploring the depths of Cape Town's commercially zoned and vacant land.
The most profitable types of real estate in Cape Town
There has been a steady demand for office space, warehousing and industrial land all over the West Coast. While residential and retail properties are in constant demand, the values for these properties tend to seesaw depending on the available liquid cash flow of private buyers. However, commercial and industrial real estate retains its value, regardless of the state of the market.
The most profitable commercial properties apart from business/retail/industrial properties are real estate that favours the tourism sector. Investing in accommodation such as hotels and Airbnbs can offer significant returns in a busy city like Cape Town.
