SEEFF
Most of the real estate companies on this list see some of their biggest sales from properties in the Western Cape. For Seeff, this has translated to receiving high volumes of sales in their offices in the province. Real estate agents from Seeff property in Hout Bay say they have had higher than expected sales and rental activity in the last financial year. The Hout Bay and Llandudno property market has topped a record high of R1.2 billion in turnover. Their high value sales include a R32 million home in Hout Bay. The high value mark is a result of the area’s fantastic lifestyle: it is near the beach, offers a street café vibe, and includes nature reserves. Sales for luxury apartments in Cape Town are also high. Seeff represents about 40 percent of the Atlantic Seaboard apartment market. Additionally, they just recently sold around 97 units for an average price of R12.7 million.
