Property for sale in South Africa
 Twenty years ago, political tensions and prohibitive flight costs meant that destinations such as South Africa came a distant second to the more popular Mediterranean markets. Today however, there has been shift in the market dynamic, and demand for property in South Africa is increasing at an unparalleled rate.
The stunning natural scenary, as well as the diverse and vibrant cities have seen visitor levels to South Africa rise in past couple of years, and today an increasing number of people are opening their eyes to the wide array of opportunities the beautiful Rainbow Nation offers them.
Similar to many more developed real estate markets, the demand for property in South Africa has been driven by the large increase in tourist visitors to the country. Presenting itself as a global leader in wildlife and nature conservation, and following the glare of the global media spotlight during the 2010 World Cup, South Africa is now seen as one of the leading destinations for people seeking to experience the very finest that nature has to offer. With cheaper flights to the region now available from an increased number of leading airlines, this trend of increased tourism in the region looks set to continue for the foreseeable future.
The demand for property in South Africa predominantly focuses on the more coastal regions, and destinations along the world famous Garden Route have seen large rises in property prices in recent years. In particular, the stunning city of Cape Town has proven hugely popular with overseas purchasers, where destinations such as Camps Bay, Constantia and Hout Bay offer some of the most sought after real estate in South Africa.
Away from the coastal regions, the market for real estate in the urban areas has also seen large increases in demand in recent times. Destinations such as Johannesburg and Pretoria in particular are experiencing considerable growth in demand as the economy continues to develop its reputation as the leading African economy.
