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.
We are first time home owners and need to get quotes to build our house. The ERF is in Village on sea (Estate in Mossel Bay). We would like the house to have an industrial finish inside with 50% of the walls plastered and painted,25% just plastered and sealed and the other 25% exposed brick(Bagging). The doors and windows we would like to be Charcoal Aluminum. Wooden Front door and White doors inside. The outside we would like to be plastered and painted and the natural stone work indicated on the plan we would like to be just exposed brick. The roof needs to have gutters to comply with the estates rules.
We have a current patio area but it is not ideal for a proper patio set and braai. We would like a complete patio with a built in braai section. We need a basin and storage space for wood ect. The patio will be divided in 2 areas; a patio set area to seat 6-8 people and then the braai area which can accommodate 4-6 people. The roof needs to be closed with a wooden finish. I am attaching current images of the patio as well as pinterest images as samples.
I am running an insurance company that consists of short and long term insurance. I want a site that will enable clients to indicate that they need our products and what kind of products we are offering. They must be able to make payments too. Please give me a call and we will discuss it further. Than you
An existing house has 3 small bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a small kitchen and a lounge. We need to extend all 3 bedrooms, kitchen and lounge, add a dining room, a study, a laundry room, a small patio/Braai area and a double garage. The size of the house should at least be - square meters. Or build a new house on another piece of land: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, lounge, dining, kitchen, study, laundry room, Patio/Braai area and a double garage. The size of the house should at least be to square meters. I really need a professional's advice here Please contact me via email, telephonically as well as Whatsapp I am not choosy. Thank you

The house is already constructed. There is no finishing, no tiling, no ceiling, no electrical wiring its basically empty it's just an empty box. There is a double garage door, but there is no motor, no windows no doors, no painting, and no plumbing. I need a building company to do the finishing. Please feel free to contact me for more info.

The idea for the house which we will use at retirement in a few years time would be as follows: --80--90m2 max total interior floor area. Ideally the house should face North to take advantage to the light and perhaps a bit of the mountain view. --3 bedrooms (one of which must be on ground floor should the design be for a two storey building to accommodate us should we not be able to access the second floor (due to old age, for example). --2 bathrooms --To be added in another phase perhaps: a garage (for one vehicle, but with additional space for a laundry and tiny workshop area). Access will be possible from the garage into the house. We came across a design on YouTube that we really feel captures most of what we are hoping for in the house.
