The KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) Mid-South Coast is fast becoming one of the country’s most attractive property investment destinations, offering excellent returns alongside unmatched coastal living. At the heart of this growth is Renishaw Hills, a mature lifestyle village within the burgeoning Renishaw Coastal Precinct, with this secure estate demonstrating remarkable return on investment since its inception in 2016. “Renishaw Hills has been one of the standout performers in both the KwaZulu-Natal and national property markets,” notes Barto van der Merwe, Managing Director of Renishaw Property Developments, a subsidiary of the JSE-listed Crookes Brothers Limited. “Since its launch, buyers have enjoyed a 94% growth in property values. This is a compound annual growth rate [CAGR] of 9% – significantly outperforming leading property markets, as well as traditional investment channels such as the JSE.” To put this into perspective, data sourced from Stats SA, Property24, and Ooba Home Loans shows that the Western Cape recorded a 78% increase over the period (7.47% CAGR), while the JSE, including reinvested dividends, delivered 73% (7.25% CAGR). In contrast, Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal combined achieved only a 29.5% increase (3.3% CAGR), with KwaZulu-Natal’s mid-market properties (R950 000 to R2.5 million) averaging a modest 4.1% year-on-year growth. “This highlights the significant potential of the KZN Mid-South Coast,” he continues. “With Renishaw Hills already demonstrating exceptional growth and several major developments underway, the region is well-positioned for similar strong performance in the years ahead.” Why are Investors Choosing the KZN Mid-South Coast?
