Clifton, Camps Bay and Franschhoek property is hot, as hot as the warm southern sun that shines its rays on the millions of citizens who are lucky enough to live in the Western Province of South Africa. For those who are looking for Camps Bay properties that rank in the upper millions, you may just find what you have been looking for – if you cast your eyes towards Cape Town that is. There is now, thanks to the recent World Cup, much interest from foreign property investors. The US, UK, Germany, Australia and many others are snapping up luxury properties left, right and centre.

A certain property website analysed that international visitors to their site is on the up. Who are the number one browsers? So far, the French seem the most taken by our gorgeous property options; this is followed by Australia, Canada and then, the UK. Germans and Americans have also been visiting our property websites in droves, yet their figures make up the smallest amount of new visitors.

International visitors are looking for those elusive properties that fall between then R2 million to R13 million mark. This is a clear indication that sprawling mansions by the ocean and up in the mountain are what foreign investors are searching for. On the opposite side of the coin, the modern yet cosy 'lock up and go homes that are scattered around the city are also falling prey to the investment of foreign coin.

Why are these tiny apartments in the city so treasured? For the single reason that not every businessman who comes to Cape Town wants to spend their time tending to a massive house - a decent apartment in the city that they are working in will do just as well.

Many have also expressed a significant amount of interest in purchasing homes for the purposes of holiday or retirement reasons. Mostly Europeans concern themselves with this particular property use. The primary property that was purchased in the past was coastal homes. The Western Cape is privy to some of the most beautiful coastlines the world has to offer, with new developments cropping up at an astonishing rate (and wherever there is still space to offer of course).

In general, there are thousands of options to select from in South Africa, not on luxury Clifton properties. This is a buyer s market to be frank, and the buying public is swooping in on the phenomenal savings on offer. If you are a seller then you must present any buyer with an exceptional asking price if you want to see any potential return on your investment.

Interest is growing at a phenomenal rate, yet there are still many foreign investors who are unsure of taking the risk of investing in one of our incredible properties in Camps Bay. It is only the well-off, affluent buyer who can afford to purchase a property overseas in South Africa. Yet the recent economic crisis and the continual strengthening of the rand have weakened the buying power of many overseas buyers.

The overseas visitor is looking for one major factor then when considering their next purchase: namely value. For anyone, even the local buyer to consider a massive purchase of such a home, the investor will need to weigh up security concerns, price and hundreds of other external influences. Stunning Franschhoek, Camps Bay and Clifton properties will always be a sound investment for the savvy buyer.
