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.
Need only amount per square metre to make budget. I am thinking of selling my house ( build 8 years ago) and try to determine a selling price. All I need is more or less a tariff per square meter of current building cost to help me to calculate a selling price. This is a normal house in Wildlife Estate. Regards

I need an 8-bedroom, 8 bathroom double/triple storey house, extension of an old house and a wall fencing. I'm making a research to ensure that I get something that is satisfying & affordable at the same time, for this reason would appreciate assistance from a professional that is good in architectural communications. Below I've attached an image of the design that I want for the professional to know what he/she will be dealing with.
Hi There My folks live in Pilgrim’s Rest in a year old house. I would like to have one of the structural walls taken down and will require the assistance of a Structural engineer to ensure that the correct support beams are put in place to redistribute the weight etc. I would love a quote on the following: - Removal of load bearing wall and instillation of adequate substitute support pillars to redistribute the weight so that they house is not structurally compromised. - The removal of a rotten wooden floor approximately 4.5x4m and filled in with concrete. Please kindly contact me via email Kind Regards
Group of 7 colleagues is having a planning breakaway few days. We will do own light breakfast with yoghurt and cereal. We stay in a self-catering beach house. We do not want heavy lunches and rather platters/wraps/snack as we will be working. For dinner we would like a proper meal of hot food. We do our own drinks and coffee.
Hallo vertrou dit gaan goed. ons gaan 'n groot baba tee hou met mans en vrouens saam. ons wil asb uit vind wat dit moontlik sal kos om net vleis te doen vir die hoeveelheid gaste? Ons sal self slaaie en al die nodige cutlery verskaf. Ons het self 'n venue - Dwarsberg Trout Hideaway. Hoor graag van julle. Lekker dag.
I’m looking to build a 2 story granny flat, with half of the ground floor being a car garage. The rest of the ground floor should have an open plan kitchen and living area with a kitchen bar counter where 2 people can eat, a powder room under the stairs to the first floor, and sliding doors all across one wall. The first floor should have a bathroom, walk in closet and large bedroom with space for a coach and tv in front of the bed. Nice to haves include wooden floors, air conditioning, large windows, security bars on all entrances to the building and the upstairs, and stylistic stairs. The proposed location of the build is street facing and next to a property boundary wall, it’s important to us that no one can see into the first floor which is above street level, while still getting optimal light. I have attached some inspiration pictures for the layout of the kitchen & bedroom.
A deck sits over my bedroom. The deck has a water feature and has planter trenches built into the low perimeter wall of the deck. There are signs of damp in the ceiling of the bedroom. I suspect the water feature and planter trenches are the source of the damp. I want to remove the water feature and trenches, and ensure that those areas are waterproof.
