For many years, the North West has offered one thing that bigger cities can’t: affordability. Families, students, and first-time buyers are starting to realise that they can get more house for their money here. You can still find spacious homes with gardens, in quiet suburbs, for prices that would barely get you a bachelor flat in Sandton.

Adherence to these standards reflects our commitment to ethical practice and professional responsibility.
