The impact of 2020

The Mzuri development in Somerset West

Buy or rent? Sectional title or freestanding? Sell or auction? Unforeseen events in 2020 saw buyers and sellers reconsidering their property needs, with surprising results WORDS: DEBBIE LOOTS PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

outh Africa’s property industry lived a nightmare as 2020 unfolded to reveal a pandemic, an economy suddenly on life support, and subsequent plummeting house prices.

developers with advanced digital platforms sold homes online that buyers never set foot in, and industry practitioners had to adjust to unexpected new buyer expectations.

Negotiating the devastating consequences of various lockdown stages, the industry was quick to suggest solutions to government, but it took months before operations started up again and estate agents were allowed to show properties to prospective buyers.

But, what are 2020’s key trends and how are they shaping the property market going forward?

Lockdown was a volatile time: property statistics painted a different picture every quarter,

Space to live and work

The global Work-From-Home Experience Survey of 3,000 employees saw 73% of South African respondents report they’re working from home successfully (68% globally). Another recent Gallup poll indicated that nearly 60% of US workers want to

continue working remotely, with most never wanting to return to the office. Back in April 2020, statistics by the UK’s Office for National Statistics showed that 49.2% of employees were working from home because of Covid-19. But, as early as March of the same year, Lloyds research reported that working from home is so popular in the UK that it had become a key consideration for those looking to buy or sell property. Estate agencies in London also reported “a rush for properties since the real estate market opened back up, particularly

for more spacious homes with outdoor space”. South Africa is likely to follow this trend, says Clifford Oosthuizen, managing director, of Westbrook, a 182ha secure lifestyle estate in Port Elizabeth. “The rise in remote working has led to more buyers seeking homes with an extra bedroom to turn into a home office,” he says. Betterbond CEO Carl Coetzee agrees, saying affordability has improved by 30%, following five consecutive repo rate cuts since January this year, seeing the average purchase price for almost

A street view of the Mzuri development in Somerset West all homebuyers up by 4% year on year in October. “This trend supports the renewed popularity of larger homes near safe, outdoor recreational amenities, and well-maintained open public spaces within secure, residential estates,” says Oosthuizen.

Bigger is better

One of the reasons for the post-lockdown resilience is the demand from young and first-time buyers – with the latter, according to ooba, currently comprising 52.4% of home purchases for the year to September. While this would usually signal demand for sectional title homes, an interesting trend appears to be emerging, says Andrew Golding, chief executive of the Pam Golding Property group. “It’s becoming evident that freehold house price inflation has stabilised and is beginning to strengthen marginally, while price growth for sectional title homes continues to slow. For the year to date (January to October 2020), freehold house price inflation has averaged 2.6%, while sectional title inflation has averaged just 1.8%.

“This suggests that demand now is stronger for freehold homes than sectional title homes – in a reversal of a long-term shift towards sectional title homes. However, this demand is probably felt less in the more expensive suburbs and more in affordable areas on the periphery of metros.” Golding also says that some developers are converting onebedroom apartments to twobedroom units. For instance, at the Mzuri residential development in Somerset West, developers have reworked the 132 one- and twobedroom apartment offering to 84 two-bedroom houses that are petfriendly and have small enclosed gardens, priced from R1,595m.

Lockdown’s legacy

Steve Brookes, chief executive of Balwin Properties, South Africa’s largest sectional title developer, says remote working has seen a dramatic change in the work environment and how homebuyers evaluate prospective properties. “Where it used to be the kitchen and bathroom that influenced the final purchase decision, these days fibre connectivity, leisure amenities and a greener footprint are top of the list,” he says. According to Brookes, the legacy of lockdown will drive demand for

integrated communities for years to come. People will also be more considerate in terms of spending, saving on transport, car insurance and – importantly – have more time on their hands not being stuck in traffic. He says this integrated community concept will spill over into the upmarket central business districts of Cape Town, Sandton, Waterfall, Rosebank and Fourways, as office space is converted into apartments and new, affordable high-rises are developed. “By ‘developing up’, shopping centre landlords are aiming to secure their target market through adding rooftop apartments and possible healthcare or educational facilities to their malls,” he says. Collaboration in the private sector and with government, especially to address the GAP market – those who earn too much to get a free house from the government and earn too little to get a bank bond – will further stimulate demand.

Small is also big

Jacques van Embden, MD of urban property development firm Blok, says instead of relying on guesswork, they conducted a survey to find out where and how people want to live before starting

their Sea Point project SIX ON N. A total of 1,470 people took part – 55% from the Western Cape, 29% from Gauteng and 12% from KwaZulu-Natal – constituting a largely millennial audience. “Gen Y-ers make up 27% of the South African population, translating into a buying power of around 14 million people,” says Van Embden. Of those surveyed, only 20% owned the property where they lived; 26% rented with friends or a partner; while the largest group (35%) still lived at home with their parents or caregiver. This is of particular interest, says van Embden, when you consider that the vast majority of respondents who lived at home were between the ages of 26 and 36, while 13% were over the age of 40.

Online auctions

Motivated by the Covid-19 lockdown, buying property via online auction has become increasingly mainstream, says BidX1 South Africa CEO MC du Toit. “As the mature players in this space, we’re seeing a huge increase in demand for a more modern, flexible approach to property sales. Buyers are now comfortable bidding online in a secure and transparent environment, and they prefer the privacy afforded by digital sales. "Coupled with this, you cannot beat the convenience factor: you can bid on any device, from anywhere in the world, and complete the full transaction online.”

“This may be a result of the economic landscape,” he says. “And financial pressure faced by today’s consumer who simply cannot afford to live independently.”

According to du Toit, it’s of great value to sellers if the property firm they choose has technology and data at the heart of its model. “Activity on BidX1’s platform is increasing exponentially, with bids to the value of some R100m during October alone.

The survey revealed the size of the property to be of least importance, with location cited as the most critical and price the second most important consideration.

“South African properties are also attracting attention from international buyers on our global database, such as the UK, US, Canada and Cyprus,” he says.

Precinct gives cricket ground new life Newlands Cricket Ground (NCG) Precinct is a new multimillion rand development underway on Cape Town’s Six Gun Grill Newlands cricket ground, aiming to make cricket a financially sustainable sport, all year round. Western Province Cricket Association (WPCA) in partnership with Sanlam will see around R800m invested in the new NCG Precinct being built on the old tennis courts area. Sanlam will own 51% of the investment, with WPCA 37% and Cricket South Africa (CSA) the remaining 12%. The mixed-use precinct will target business professionals

and significant educational occupants ensuring a creative environment that balances work and play. Varsity College and Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT) will be occupying nearly 50% of the new NCG precinct, which will also include shops and restaurants. The NCG will remain a working cricket ground where the sport will continue to take centre stage. “For many years it became apparent that surviving on the revenue generated by match days was no longer an option and we needed to find a solution that would make a positive impact,” says WPCA interim CEO Tennyson Botes.

“The ground is currently only used for an average of 35 days per year, but this new development will see the NCG precinct used all year round.” Kugandrie Govender, Cricket South Africa’s acting CEO, says the ground has a long and rich history which was built up over the past 132 years. “The new development will protect that heritage for the future,” he says. “One of the features of the precinct is a pop-up cricket museum, which will capture and preserve the contribution that Newlands has made to the sport of cricket.” A cricket auditorium will also be part of the development.

Sandton development rakes in record sales South Africa’s largest sectional title developer, Balwin Properties, recently launched the lifestyle apartment development Wedgewood Sandton. It broke a residential sales record in Sandton by selling 550 units in one day, valued at R750m. The launch day at the show office saw buyers purchasing units online on their various devices, making for a mostly digital and Covid-19 conscious process. “We’re very proud to create opportunities for first-time homeowners and investors to own a property in a prime location,” says Brookes. “Seventy percent of the units are available for under R1,2m, which is unheard of in the heart of the richest square mile

Study shows retirees keep working A study on retirement trends from Voya Financial shows that 59% of baby boomers expect to keep working into retirement. For Generation X, it’s 60% and for millennials, 49%. Overall, 54% of all workers are likely to retain their jobs, or remain in some form of employment, during their retirement years. According to the Kelly Global Workforce Index, older workers are the most entrepreneurial of all age groups, and 35% of baby boomers receive income from independent or freelance work. Whether retirees continue to work in a traditional work environment, or decide it's high time to start their own businesses, their hardwon knowledge, people skills, and life and leadership experience, serve them well, as does a good balance between confidence and wisdom. Elderly people also tend to have established networks and contacts, which can be useful, and access to funds from investments, retirement packages or inheritances that can serve as seed money for new ventures.

The percentage of businesses started by people over 55 is rising rapidly and believed to be two to three times more likely to succeed than those founded by individuals under the age of 30. This trend of older people launching businesses is even more prominent in less developed countries, possibly because there are fewer resources available to support an ageing population. In South Africa, there are various services offered by residents of Evergreen Lifestyle’s retirement communities across the country, including upholstery, law, remedial teaching, medicine, irrigation, writing and baking. Says managing director of Evergreen Lifestyle Villages Garry Reed, “Our estates are designed to encourage interaction, so we support working residents wherever possible – whether by advertising their products and services or assisting with admin. Our advanced technological facilities – which include fibre to the home and free Wi-Fi within our clubhouses – also make staying connected with customers and clients easier.”

in Africa. We’re excited to disrupt the market and pave the way for the next generation.” Rainmaker marketing director Stefan Botha says, based on the ongoing demand, sell-out of the 1,348 apartments is anticipated within the coming months, which will see the building completed in March 2023. Wedgewood Sandton offers studio, one- and two-bedroom lifestyle apartments from R850,000. Buyers only require a R10,000 deposit and all bond and transfer costs are included in the purchase price. Some facilities include an outdoor cinema, business pods, rooftop entertainment areas, a coffee shop and a football field.

Porto lures investors to Portugal Porto in Portugal recently rated first among the top 25 best small cities in the world to relocate to in Monocle magazine’s inaugural Small Cities Index, and it’s the latest hotspot of choice for South Africans entering Portugal’s Golden Visa Programme. Says Chris Immelman, who heads up Pam Golding International, “Portugal is among the top three in the 2020 Global Peace Index, and with English widely spoken, great weather, an affordable cost of living and healthcare, excellent education facilities and no wealth or inheritance tax or tax on overseas pensions, is increasingly popular among South Africans seeking residency by investment or easy access to EU countries. “With interest and uptake ongoing through the Covid-19 lockdown, most of our investors are looking

to acquire a Golden Visa to afford them and their immediate families visa-free access to EU countries in all 26 countries in the Schengen zone to study, work or live – with some seeking to relocate or retire permanently to Portugal. “Over the past three-and-ahalf years we’ve assisted 380 families to enter the Golden Visa Programme, which offers residency via investment in property, with an entry level of only €350,000 (±R6,4m). A number of early investors have already been granted citizenship.” Immelman says it’s not surprising that Porto is stealing the limelight as a highly desirable location for investment, tourism or to live. “As we’ve seen in South Africa, many people are reassessing their lifestyle and accommodation

requirements, and some are finding that with work-from-home gaining preference, they’re able to live and work from anywhere in the world. “Factors taken into account in the Small Cities Index include quality of life, room to breathe, welcoming culture, career and business opportunities and access to nature. Porto has all these qualities in spades and more, including a vibey, cosmopolitan feel and sense of community.” Situated within the historical areas of the city, the latest Golden-Visa approved investment opportunity in Porto is the Lapa Porto Hotel, which operates under Marriott’s Renaissance brand. With investment available at €350,000 per investor, which includes full EU residency and seven days free stay in the hotel per year, there are 163 rooms, a convention centre capable of hosting 1,000 pax, a restaurant and rooftop swimming pool. The hotel is expected to commence operating in Q1 in 2023. The developers are also offering a nett return of 3% to all investors from the time that the hotel will be in operation. Furthermore, they are offering a compulsory buy‑back to all investors, which means that they will repurchase each investor’s share at the original purchase price of €350,000 at the end of the Golden Visa programme.

ARE VIDEO WILLS VALID IN SOUTH AFRICA? There is no precedent on the validity of video wills in South Africa. In order for a will to be valid and accepted by the Master of the High Court in this country, it has to comply with the requirements as set out in section 2 of the Wills Act 7 of 1953 including, but not limited to, the requirement that it must be duly signed by the testator as well as by two or more competent witnesses present at the same time.

In some international jurisdictions (such as New South Wales, Australia, and in some states in the United States of America) the issue of video wills has come before their courts and some rulings have held that in certain situations and provided specific requirements are met, video wills may be accepted as a valid last will of a deceased person. It therefore appears that international jurisdictions are gradually adapting, their courts navigating the interaction between law and technology. The importance of having a written and validly executed will remains paramount in South Africa. Contact our Estates Department on 041 363 6044 or info@kaplans.co.za for assistance to draft your Will.
