Is it cheaper to build or buy a house in South Africa?
The short answer is that it is cheaper to buy an existing house in South Africa but every year less so.
I am looking to redecorate my lounge and main bedroom only as budget is limited. Happy to consider trainees, junior members of a design team or freelancers as long as they have a good eye for colour and can put a room together. Lounge is 5m x 8m (4 large windows, loads of light) Bedroom 3.5m x 5m Sourcing for decor items from retail outlets preferred. I am not looking for bespoke custom made furniture at this point as my kids are small (4 & 7) and will ruin beautiful, expensive furniture. I've attached pictures of some styles I like.
