The property market in the Waterberg area of the Limpopo Province is performing at a rate of knots. Foreign investors simply cannot get enough of the area's authentic bushveld appeal and local investors are enjoying healthy returns on their property investments.
Based in Vaalwater, the only town actually within the Waterberg Range, the newly launched Fine & Country Waterberg Farms and Lodges operates throughout the Waterberg Municipal area.
Nick Van Coppenhagen, licensee for the new branch, went on to explain some of the desirable factors for the Waterberg: "The area is malaria-free, has a mild, favourable climate, a cosmopolitan community and vast range of activities that can be enjoyed. The Waterberg is also proximate to Johannesburg, yet just far away enough for city slickers to relax, has the lowest crime statistics in the country and is the most productive game breeding area in South Africa."
To achieve success in the bushveld real estate industry, it takes sound and intimate knowledge of fauna, flora and all the other aspects that go with the successful marketing and selling of game farms, farms and lodges.
Looking at the property market's current performance, van Coppenhagen says that the market growth has been phenomenal. "Prices of certain desirable properties have doubled and in some cases trebled."
Van Coppenhagen went on to say that the domestic market last year was strong; however, most of their sales this year have been to foreign buyers. "Therefore we found it necessary once we started our own operation to have international exposure, in the U.K. in particular.
